DEV And Enrique Iglesias Play Star-crossed Lovers In "Naked"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Saturday, March 31, 2012 0 comments

Electro-pop singer Dev has team up with Enrique Iglesias released the new video for their collaborative sultry track "Naked." The sensual/infectious The Cataracs-produced party-ready cut will serve as the third single only features on the US edition of her debut album, "The Night The Sun Came Up," and the second single from Iglesias' upcoming album, "Reloaded."
Dev's honeyed, cavity-causing voice snakes and slithers around Iglesias on their sultry duet. The dance-beat song will have your blood surging through your veins and to your nether regions. It's a Eurodance-inspired club banger with thumping backbeats and synths. That's as authentic as it gets. If it was both singers' intention to get people hot and bothered by their song, starting things off on the dance floor and finishing them in the bedroom, then mission accomplished. It's an upbeat, uptempo rump-shaker.
Iglesias's sultry vocals do well with Dev's ability to talk dirty and make it sound oh so good. The techno elements of the song is what Dev has come to be known for in her tracks. It's a sweet pop song about a star-crossed love immaculately produced for the dance floor by the Cataracs. In this song "Naked" is a feeling not a physical reality. That is a nice twist that might provoke a few smiles from listeners. Also, Dev has fashioned a sweet, memorable, romantic pop tune that also works for the party and the club. The pair generate pleasing romantic heat.
Filmed in late February, the duo play star-crossed lovers in the BBGun-directed sultry visual, which takes us to a late night at the Planet Hollywood hotel in Las Vegas where Dev is getting ready for a night out, while a perfectly coiffed Iglesias just checked in to try his luck at the roulette table. The Las Vegas mega hotel and casino is the perfect backdrop for a song about rolling the dice, a chance meeting and taking a risk with a stranger no matter what others think of it. They actually do not appear together until the very last scene in the hotel elevator just when the doors are about to slide to a close. And it exactly fuels the song's narrative.

Dev Tries To Get Rid of Mystery Baggage In "Take Her From You"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Monday, March 5, 2012 0 comments

The electro-hop pop artist Dev has official released, even though it leaked in last September, video for "Take Her From You," the fifth track taken from Dev's upcoming debut album "The Night the Sun Came Up," which was suffered several delays due to Dev having a baby and will comes out March 27. Dev steps back 'in the dark' for her latest clip which is a wild world away from the whimsical hip-POP melodies she's been dropping as of recent but this rock-star production just goes to show how versatile Dev can be.
It sounds like the music I'm guessing Ke$ha would want to make on her upcoming album, a heavy rock edge on a POP record. Between the 90's vibes and the catchy whistling. The delay was revealed hot on the heels of her pregnancy announcement. She's expecting a baby girl with her best friend Jimmy. "Being so busy and wrapped up in my career, I never thought I'd fall in love or have a family," Dev said. "I thought I was going to be a lonely touring soul till I was 50... I knew how much Jimmy and I loved each other and I thought we'd do amazing at loving this baby."
New motherhood isn't slowing Dev down! Since the start of 2012, the 22-year-old Californian singer has released videos back-to-back-to-back. First Dev premiered the sultry duet "Naked" with Enrique Iglesias, followed by the dance track "In My Trunk." The new song "Take Her From You," is a little more rock in sound, with some heavy electric guitar riffs, a slower tempo, and a catchy whistling section. It differs completely from the electronic soundscape of the album, as it is inspired by rock and roll music.
Visually, it's dark, edgy and quite the disturbing piece. Shot in a moody black and white, the singing/whistling star croons to the camera as she takes a long trip from her home and out into the city. The camera follows the "Bass Down Low" singer as she hides a corpse in a trash bag and tries to get rid of it. Dev drags the "package" around the town before loading it in a stolen car, and drives away to a secluded place to bury it for good. The mystery baggage, which is ripped open in a surprise reveal at the end of the video.

You've already heard Dev on the hit track "Like a G6" by hip hop superstars Far East Movement, which sampled her debut single "Booty Bounce." But this singer is no one-trick pony. Dev has a slew of amazing tracks floating around the internet right now, including "Fireball," an eclectic forray into HipTronik, mixing electro with a touch of reggae. But her style and the song's dreamy interludes remind us of a rougher version of Uffie. The emotion spilling out of Dev's flow and the bass is enough to leave our head spinning. Her dreamy pop tune "Fireball" is not a track you can miss.
Hailing from Manteca, California and of Mexican and Portuguese decent, electropop artist Dev infuses her flow with hip hop beats and catchy verses. The Portuguese hip hop spitfire, who was discovered on MySpace by collaborative team The Cataracts, exudes a certain curious confidence in her music that won't fend you off, but somehow makes you more interested in her demeanor. Just like her Far East Movement-sampled mega hit "Booty Bounce", the irresistible beats of this old cut are undeniable, and pretty much the main reason why we can't wait for her new video "In the Dark," to hit in a couple of weeks.
In her new video, Dev is a "fireball," a phoenix rising from the ashes, cycling the Los Angeles bridges in stilletos, smoking a dangerous cigarette, throwing burning packages over bridges. Basically, everything she could legally do with fire. Maybe that's exactly what a fireball is, someone who's so red hot in burning up the charts, you can't take their eyes off of them. Though, we preferred thinking it was an analogy for how she rides her two-wheeler in that getup: fast, dangerously, and ready to hit something at any moment.
If you are going to kill someone, lament a lost love, or burn stuff, according to pop star music video fable, you are to do it on one of Los Angeles many bridges! For a girl who's proclaiming she has so much money that dollar bills are filling her tummy, we're not sure why she's not riding in a tricked-out taxi or even skimming the world's surface on a segway scooter with those two metallic men traveling behind on horseback. But, if Dev likes her stilettos on pedals and her two wheels in front and in back of each other, we've got a feeling that's exactly how they'll stay.
