D'Angelo - First show in 12 years TONIGHT in Stockholm

Yes, you read correctly, tonight sees the return of the one and only D'Angelo to our lives, and now we can rest assure that it's definitely no joke. Earlier today, he was snapped with a fan on the streets of Stockholm (above) looking well and tonight sees him perform his first show in just over 12 YEARS @ the Filadelfiakyrkan arena! You can see Tina Farris' first entry in her D'Angelo 2012 Tour Diary HERE and catch a couple more pics after the jump. YES YES YES!!!

John Legend - Tonight (Best You Ever Had) (Feat. Ludacris)

Three years after the release of his last solo single, John Legend teams up with Ludacris for this lovely head-nodding R&B jam, which is the lead single for the soundtrack from the upcoming film 'Think Like A Man'. The film will star Kevin Hart, Michael Ealy, Taraji P. Henson, Meagan Good, Terrence J & Gabrielle Union, with the single being released January 31st. Welcome back John.

Etta James - I'd Rather Go Blind (Lucky Paul Rework x Tribute)

Before releasing his new single 'Elephant Island' on Somethinksounds, New Zealand-based beat maker Lucky Paul drops off this beautiful rework of the Etta James classic 'I'd Rather Go Blind'. Paul keeps enough of the original to please the oldies, but adds some enchanting bass and twisting Electronic sounds to bring it all the way into 2012. Beautiful, sorely missed.

Nina Nesbitt - Live @ The Bowery, London (April 25th)

The young Scottish singer/songwriter will be kicking things off @ The Bowery in London on April 25th - doors open @7pm and the tickets are a mere £6. Be sure to check out the video for Skeletons HERE, pick up your tickets HERE and follow Nina on Twitter for the next 4 dates.

Lana Del Rey - Dark Paradise x Summertime Sadness

Here are my two favourite tracks from Lana Del Rey's much talked about debut album, Born To Die, which is set to be released on January 30th. Certain parts of the album are genius, but certain parts are very monotous and sound like every other song of hers that you've heard in the past. At times she is Lana Del HooRey, but most of this album is Lana Del BoRey. Also, don't listen to this if you're in a bad mood. Pre-order HERE.

Yasmin - 5 Minutes

To say thank you to her fans for the support of her recent single 'Light Up (The World)', Yasmin has let loose this acoustic performance of an exclusive album track. '5 Minutes' shows a completely different side to the DJ turned singer, with much deeper lyrics and a purer sounding vocal - big fan.

Emeli Sandé - Where I Sleep (RWD TV)

RWD's latest cover star Emeli Sandé recently performed this stunning track exclusively for RWD TV. 'Where I Sleep' is taken from the Scottish singer/songwriter's forthcoming debut album, Our Version Of Events, which will be available on February 13th, pre-order HERE. Love this lady.

Ed Sheeran - Be My Husband (Nina Simone Cover) (NP Sessions)

During his time in France, Ed Sheeran dropped into a hotel in Paris to do a little acoustic session for Now Playing magazine - during the session he performed this brilliant cover of one of my favourite Nina Simone tracks, which is a song that he has been performing at all of the dates on his recent UK tour. Check out 'Kiss Me' & 'Grade 8' after the jump.

Here is the official video for the third single to be taken from Maverick Sabre's highly anticipated forthcoming debut album, Lonely Are The Brave. Both this and the album will be released on February 6th - can't wait.

Nina Nesbitt - Skeletons (Video)

Some sick visuals for one of my favourite tracks from Nina Nesbitt's recently released 'Live Take' EP. The young Scottish singer/songwriter started to make huge movements in 2011, but 2012 is set to be an even bigger year. Pick up the EP HERE.
