Mario Vazquez - Gallery

Mario formerly appeared on American Idol some time back and he left the contest in the middle.

He is back now with an amazing single penned by Ne-Yo ("So Sick") which is starting to gain airplay on Pop and Rhythmic stations.

Dance stations will also give this power rotation with the help of a dazzling new remix done by legendary Junior Vasquez.

This remix has a nice blend of commercial and underground sounds, making it very accessable to radio stations and DJs. Junior gave the mix a full treatment, keeping all the vocals intact and kept looping and manipulation of the vocals to a minimum. The addition of the vocals from the Spanish version is also a nice touch. Vazquez's vocals soar on this track. Vazquez and Vasquez are a great pair.

Look for this one to be everywhere this Summer! And expect big things from Mario Vazquez!

Paris Hilton - Stars Are Blind

Heiress, socialite, actress, reality TV star, entrepreneur and media whore are just a few descriptors associated with Paris Hilton. She can add singer to that list. Yes. Paris is beginning a singing career.

After many delays, "Stars Are Blind" is the first single from her debut album Paris. This laid-back, reggae/pop track has been put out at just the right time--just in time for the start of Summer. This track calls to mind Blondie's 80's smash "The Tide Is High." The lyrics are simple and infectious. You wouldn't be surprised if you find yourself humming this song after you have listened to it.

And there are remixes for this by Luny Tunes, Tracy Young, Chus & Ceballos and The Scumfrog.

Look out for this one to be topping the pop and club charts!
