Newcomer Tino Coury just released his debut single ‘Diary’ and it can already be heard on over 45 pop and rhythm radio stations across the US.

Tino Coury is the first artist signed to indie label Eleventh Records. ‘Diary’ marks the first release on Eleventh Records, which is being distributed through Universal’s Fontana. Tino will release his full-length debut album later in the year, for which he has collaborated with producer Alex Cantrall (Fantasia, Dru Hill, JoJo).

On ‘Diary’, Tino says:

“I started with a straight piano line as a loop,” he recalls of the song’s creation. “I had the lyrical concept, and the melody and the words started coming for the hook. I then started building the track adding the drums and synths–I wanted it to have a little bit of a club feel. When I write a song, I want a beat you can dance to, a great track-but also a story,” adds Coury. “There has to be a heart to it.”

New Music: Adam Lambert ‘For Your Entertainment’

Adam Lambert unveiled a new cover for the first official single off his upcoming album For Your Entertainment. The cover is just as dramatic as his album cover, but far less campy. Lambert appears to be channeling Rihanna in this pic.

Lambert also debuted his single ‘For Your Entertainment’ on KIISfm’s morning show with Ryan Seacrest today. The song is not at all what we were expecting from the Idol runner-up. The track is completely pop, so much so that it could have been a Britney reject. But we have no shame…we’re loving it after a few listens.
