Jax you know I love you but you need to take a ****ing seat downE. It's a game. Chill. So what you got 18 articles done out of 20? That's basically all of them anyway. Regardless of the fact that you said to iHype that you were going to be away all day, it's not like that was the only day you had to write articles. Everyone had a full seven day week. As iHype said, allowing you that extra time to post the articles would be unfair to everyone who did managed to do what they needed to do by the deadline.
I found out last minute that I was going to be away all day on Saturday (9 hours at work) and instead of wallowing in my own self pity I got up and did something about it (that being staying up until 1:30 in the morning and then getting up at 8:00 in the morning just to finish all 20 of my articles (I wrote 22 in total since I did one for Tove and one for Calvin too) before my 9 hour shift on about 6 hours of sleep). That's called dedication, and if you were as serious as you seem about this game then you would have done something similar in order to make sure you met the deadline instead of finishing with 18 articles when you knew you were going to be gone for the day.
For me I don't even care if I hit #1 or not, I do this because it's fun and I enjoy typing the articles. The second that this stops being a fun game and starts becoming a chore I won't be playing anymore. But if I hit #1 of course that's an added bonus that I'll be happy with. I wish Azealia and her single / album all of the best but you really need to just settle down and realise it's not that big of a deal if you get blocked because at the end of the day all it means is someone worked harder that week.

I'm cackling at "I only have one thing to say" just before the essay. I live.

Charli XCX releases 'Alone in the Dark Remix (Feat. Brooke Candy)' Music Video
Charli XCX released a brand new version of the music video of 'Alone in the Dark' which is the Remix version which features Brooke Candy. This music video is more focused on the 'revenge' part of the story then the first video.
The music video starts with a shot showing Charli's face while her hair is flying around along with the breeze of air, in slow motion. After a few seconds, we can hear a small melody playing. Charli suddenly starts talking: "You were everything to me... You were everything to me and you left me... all alone, alone n the dark"
The video suddenly shows us a large view of the scene from the side. Charli is wearng a leather jacket along with a black catsuit with large boots. She has a revolver in her hand. Right in front of her we can see a man but we can't see he's face. The scene is shown in black and white. Suddenly, Charli lifts the gun and shoots the guy. He hasn't said anything all along and he didn't do any sound while dying or when he fell to the ground.
Suddenly the video starts showing some memories: Charli in a short light pink dress, playing around the guy or them together...
The music starts with Brooke Candy's intro, she's wearing a metallic outfit as she usually does with really long blonde, pink and black hair. She's shown alone in a abandoned old and dirty city.
A few short seconds of Charli and the guy are shown sometimes, in this same 'abandoned' city they are running around and drinking from the same bottle of whiskey, or smoking together.
When Brooke Candy's part starts getting harsher, The boyfriend is shown with another girl, having sex with her, but Charli sees them from afar, they were inside the guy's house and were right infront of windows. You could see how sad she wasand she runs away. Charli starts singing her verse. While she's running away, the now ex-boyfriend notices her running from the window.
When she gets to the chorus, the video has shown us seens of her getting depressed and smoking in her bathtub while crying. During the chorus, she texts him: "I Will Hunt You Down". The ex-boyfriend sees the text and knowing that Charli is a very sensitive person but that she could be dangerous, he decided to run away.
Then she texts Brooke Candy: "#HuntingSeason" and the video shows us Brooke Candy infront of a liquor shop getting wasted and receiving the text then smiling. After the chorus, another Brooke Candy verse starts. Charli is shown Getting ready and getting into the car that Brooke Candy just arrived to her house in. Charli sings another verse while in the car and standing up in it as the car is roofless. They arrive to a old building, and they start getting in. The video shows us Charli kicking the dorr and entering while the girl inside and another boy with who she's messing with start screaming. Charli shoots around the house with her gun and starts a fire. While Charli searches for the girl and the guy, Brooke Candy keeps on trashing the house even more. Charli finds them and shoots the girl right in the head while she kicks the guy with her buffalo boots and when he falls on the ground she steps on his face. She then shoots him.
Short clips of Charli alone crying can be seen between the scenes of Charli getting back up in the car and driving away with Brooke Candy. The car stops at some random shop where Brooke Candy hits the shop keeper and asks him: "Where is he?", referring to the ex-boyfriend. The shop keeper writes down an adress and when he's done Brooke candy takes the small note and shoots the shopkeeper.
During the breakdown, scenes of Brooke & Charli arriving to some old house made of wood are shown while shorter clips of Charli entering can be seen as well. Charli immediately sees the ex-boyfriend who starts running away. Charli easily catches him while walking slowly because he didn't have anywhere to run. She seemed so calm. When she catches him she hits him as hard as she could, breaking his nose. She hit's his balls as well and starts hurting him as much as possible. After a few secnds of 'Torture' are show, Charli screams: "STAND UP!" and he does. And here is exactly where the scene at the beginning was. She says the line that was said at the beginning of the video: "You were everything to me... You were everything to me and you left me... all alone, alone n the dark", and she shoots the guy and he falls down without making a sound. The video ends with 'Charli XCX+Brooke Candy' appearing on the screen then slowly melting away.

Charli XCX performs at 'Devour My Heart' release Party+Reveals album tracklist
Just a few days before the release of her brand new album 'Devour My heart', Charli XCX decided to party along with different celebrities to celebrate the release of her new album. The launch party was held at one of Los Angeles's biggest nightclubs as well as one of the biggest nightclubs in the world, Giant. Only 1,000 fans were able to get into the club, 1,000 lucky fans who won a contest, where to be able to get a ticket to the party, they had to promote Charli XCX's single 'Alone in the Dark'.
The celebrities present included Kim Kardashian, Jessie J, Sky Ferreira, the Icona Pop duo, Alfie Allen, Beyonce, Jay-Z & Kanye West. After Icona Pop opened the party with performances of some of their songs like 'I Love It', 'Ready for the Weekend' & 'Girlfriend', Charli XCX went on stage to reveal the tracklist of her album, while the paparazzi started taking pictures of the list of titles presented on the screen. The picture were all over the internet in a matter of minutes.
Here is the tracklist of the album:
Devour My Heart
Charli XCX
Written by Charli XCX, Ariel Rechtshaid, Patrik Berger, Sky Ferreira and Paul White
Produced by Ariel Rechtshaid, Patrik Berger, Paul White, Blood Diamonds & Stargate
The album is a bit more Pop/rock Charli's first album 'True Romance'. It keeps a similar Alternative-Goth-Pop True Romance had but also includes more Pop/Rock elements. There's a few more party-esque songs and the album is more explosive, as if You're The One was mixed with Superlove, Boom Clap and Nuclear Seasons.
1. Tokyo Lights
Produced by Patrik Berger & StarGate
Written by Charli XCX
2. SuperLove
Produced by Patrik Berger
Written by Charli XCX
3. Wasted (Taste It)
Produced by Ariel Rechtshaid & Patrik Berger
Written by Charli XCX
4. Out of my Control
Produced by Paul White, Blood Diamonds & Patrik Berger
Written by Charli XCX & Paul White
5. Devour My Heart
Produced by Ariel Rechtshaid
Written by Charli XCX
6. Feels
Produced by Blood Diamonds & Charli XCX
Written by Charli XCX & Style of Eye
7. Princess

8. Alone in The Dark

9. My Shadow

10. Hooked on it (Feat. Sky Ferreira)

11. Need You

12. Divide
Produced by Patrik Berger
Written by Charli XCX
The party then went on late into the night. At the end of the party, Charli went on stage to perform a few of the songs from the album.
Wearing Balenciaga leotard with a golden belt, she started performing 'SuperLove' with the band. The crowd started jumping along to the beat and dancing to the song's catchy vibe. During the chorus, dancers joined Miss XCX on stage and started posing fiercely with her. The stage was set up to look as one of Tokyo's streets, with Neon lights everywhere.
Charli then started to sing the track 'Divide', which was produced by Patrik Berger and written by Charli alone. Since this was it's debut performance, people were very excited. Charli just walked around the stage, happily as usual excited because of her album soon to be released.
Next up was 'Hooked On It' which is the song that features Sky Ferreira. Sky who attended the party and danced around the dancefloor with Charli went up on stage to perform the song. The song was like a mix of a joyful song and a sad song.
The enxt song up was Charli's favorite song on the album 'Tokyo Lights'. She was impressive that night as she was at the Electric Daisy festival.
The final song on the setlist was 'Alone in the Dark', the album's lead single which is also the 8th track on the album which she performed wearing a cute light pink dress with a fur coat over it.

RITA RELEASES RAUNCHY YET POWERFUL MUSIC VIDEO FOR 'LOSING ME'
Director: Terry Richardson
Release: 12/7
The video starts as the screen fades in from black. There is no music playing yet just ambience of an apartment. Camera shots change quickly between the rooms of the house. The third shot shows a wide angle view of a room with three glass dividers and four beds in each divided space. On each one of those four beds, a naked man with a page head mask over his face is hand cuffed the bed post. The fourth man closest to the camera is noticeably fat,very tan and has short jet black hair.
The camera shot changes to a semi close-up of Rita Ora smiling. She walks towards the camera [in the direction of the exit] twirling what appears to be the keys to the handcuffs, leaving the four naked men chained up behind her. The screen blurs and the words, 7 HOURS EARLIER fade in.
---
The text disappears and the fat men we saw earlier naked on the bed is in the scene, but dressed in a baggy t-shirt and shorts. Rita is also in this scene, and she is on the sofa crying. The man, tries to comfort her saying, "It's not you, Rita. I've changed and I'm not in a good place. I don't wait you to have to go through that with me." He places his hand on her shoulder, but she pushes it off and rises up suddenly. "GET OUT!", she yells. "Get out of my house you ****ing piece of ****! MOVED ON?!? You think I don't know about how you've been ****ing your gym trainer? I can't believe i ever loved you. Get the **** out, Rob!" Rob seems a bit shocked, but walks out of the houset and slams the front door shut behind him.
Similar break-up scenes are shown for three other girls, each ending with the girl yelling at the man to get out of her house. The scene cuts back to Rita who is now lying on her bed and crying with tissues all around her. The camera zooms in on her face as realization dawns on her. She wipes off the tears, and opens her phone. The camera cuts to a closeup of her phone, showing Rita sending a text to three other girls saying "You want to get him back for breaking your heart?"The screen splits into four and the other three girls shown earlier now occupy each box. One is scene typing and a a closeup on her phone reveals her typing, "Hell yeah!" The others agree and Rita calls them on FaceTime.
"I can send them an email from a friend they all have in common telling them to come at 9pm to the Azores Nightclub. The we can...." The scene fades out as the ladies start planning their revenge. After fading to black a message across the screen reads, 'LATER THAT EVENING'.
---
The setting is now an upbeat nightclub with flashing neon bulbs being the only source of light. The camera bans over to the left, where Rita and her other three friends are standing at a high table each drinking a Mojito. All the girls are noticeably different, each wearing a wig different from their natural hair color and a ton of makeup to disguise their looks.
"You sure this is going to work, Rita?" asks one of the girls. "Of course it will Kelly, just stick to the plan. Okay there are the guys over there at the bar. Don't forget, bump into them and get them to buy you a drink. Spike their drink with the ruffies and the absinthe and escort them out back to your "car". By the type you get to where my jeep is packed, they should be knocked out completely, so we can load them in the back and drive back to my place to complete the plan. Got it?" She looks at each of the girls. They all nod. "Okay. Goodluck and see you all out back in ten minutes!" As the girls separate, the synths of 'Losing Me' fade in. The camera closely follows Rita as she passes through the audience to get to Rob, who is sitting down at the bar. By the time she reaches him, 'Losing Me' drowns out all the audio from the club and we watch Rita flirt with Rob as the first verse of "Losing Me' starts. Although we can't hear the conversation, Rita orders for two drinks and we see a closeup of her hand as she spikes Rob's. They clink both glasses together and a few minutes later, Rita whispers something on his ear.
They get up and Rita leads a drunk and almost unconscious Rob out of the club and to her jeep where the other girls are waiting. As Rita gets closer to the van, 'Losing Me' which is at the pre-chorus, fades out. "Are they all in there," Rita asks. Kelly nods and they help her load the now passed out Rob into the back. "They should be about for about 40 minutes sow we have enough imd to get to my place." Rita gets into the front seat and begins to drive back home. She taps he radio button, and 'Losing Me' starts off where it faded out earlier. The scene cuts between multiple shots of Rita speeding down the highway and the good and then the bad parts of Rita's relationship.
They finally get home. Rita slams the car door, and the instrumental synth part of the 'Losing Me' chorus kicks in. The scene cuts quickly between the girls unloading the men and putting them in the beds inside the glass divided rooms. They are shown undressing the men, playing with their genitals and cuffing, gagging and blind-folding them. The camera switches to a wide shot, and shows the four girls backing the viewer. The camera flies by them and reveals the four naked men lying on the bed, slowly gaining consciousness.
"Losing Me' is now the second chorus right before the bridge, and it fades out before it gets there. Rita looks and the other girls and says, "You know what to do girls!" They all smile and step forward and once again, 'Losing Me' kicks in right at the bridge as the girls get to work. The women each grab a razor and some shaving cream and start off by shaving their ex's beard. The camera switches between Rita, Kelly and the other two as they proceed to shaving the underarms, the torso and then the pubes. They then take a red sharpie and write "[Their Name] was the Best I'll ever have". The men slowly are now almost awake and are starting to fidget. The girls clearly proud of their handy work, take photos of their ex's naked. As the cherry on top, Rita and the other girls place a pig head hat on each of the men. The "Losing Me" instruments start to fade out and we hear the girl laughing and the camera pans over to Rita, whose face is emotionless. She delivers the closing line, with almost a whisper, "It's all downhill from meeeeee." The screen fades to black just as Rob and the other men wake up and find they are chained to their bends and blindfolded. Rita laughs and yells "You'll regret losing me!", as she walks off camera and then screen goes black completely.
THE END |
I think I could snatch all of these tbh

The remix video for "Smile" will snatch. I mean, it has Bonnie grinding on an industrial pipe system, touching herself while rolling around on the ground sexually, straddling Calvin Harris and making out with him and Calvin Harris shirtless. A recipé for a hit, if you ask me.

I'm sure iHype will confirm this week's article limit when he posts the charts on Monday. Well, at least I hope he will. But 25 sounds good to me. Somewhere in between.
But really the article limit isn't a problem for me, it could be 50 for all I'd care and I'd still make time to reach it.
