The rebranding of Ke$ha continues. It's true, it's true. With new collaborations that include The Flaming Lips, fun.'s Nate Ruess, Ben Folds Five and The Black Keys' Patrick Carney, we're definitely seeing a different artist emerge ahead of her upcoming Warrior release. Ruess co-wrote her hit "Die Young," which is on its way to No. 1 (currently No. 3) and Carney co-wrote "Love Into the Light," which also appears on the new album, along with contributions by Sia, Calvin Harris and the Dust Brothers (Beck, Beastie Boys).

A new version has been released of Kanye West’s "White Dress," his contribution to The Man With the Iron Fists soundtrack. This alternate take of “White Dress” is certainly a bare bones approach compared to the original, and the ending is different, but it's hard not to enjoy it just as much.
