Taio Cruz is a bonafide HITMAKER here in the U.S. now that his first 2 singles have hit Top Ten on the Billboard Hot 100. “Dynamite,” the follow up to his Billboard #1 “Break Your Heart” is climbing the chart (currently at #6) and I’m not complaining. The song follows the same pop/dance formula as “Break Your Heart” so it’s no wonder that it’s doing just as well as it’s predecessor. The video for “Dynamite” is also virtually the same as the video for “Break Your Heart,” except for this new one takes place at a giant junk yard/chop shop. Interesting choice. I mean, I guess it’s fair to say that you can only cram SO MANY hot women onto a boat…a junk yard definitely is a bit more roomy…but still. Interesting choice. The video features Cruz prancing around like he’s the shit…also fair…since he is the shit. I’m really happy for Cruz’s U.S. success so far. I hope it continues with the third single. I’m also glad that he’s doing well without the help of a rent-a-rapper.
The remix package for this new single is also pretty decent with mixes by Mixin’ Marc, Ralphi Rosario and StoneBridge. You can buy the mixes now on Masterbeat. Check out the tracklisting:
