As we’ve all come to understand, Selena Gomez is an angel sent from Heaven on a mission to restore truth, love and beauty to the dismal wasteland that is tweenage pop in America with her highly danceable, twee tunes. Case in point: “Off The Chain.”

Now, IT GETS EVEN BETTER:

According to an article for Billboard Brazil, three of the songs from Selegenda’s upcoming studio album (due out in June) have been co-penned by the likes of none other than Godney Spears.

The article goes on to note that while the first song is a leftover from one of Brit Brit’s previous albums (“Whiplash,” as recently deduced via ASCAP), the other two tracks were apparently penned strictly with Selena in mind.

Three. Entir. Songs. Did you hear that? THREE.

Britney Spears is the new Claude Kelly. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST.

And now, Lady Gaga performing “Judas” for the first time ever.

Donning her best Britney at the 1999 VMA’s skin-tight couture (I keed, I keed), Mademoiselle Gagz and her troupe of pious prancers turned out a semi-spastic, mildly epileptic rendition of her latest RedOne-produced smash.

The Lady also sat down and spoke with Ellen prior to her performance to discuss her fans, her fashion, and “feeling like a loser” in her latest HBO special sneak peek. Oh, and her surrealist mole of course!

Watch for the “Judas” music video to premiere during next Thursday’s episode of American Idol.

“Judas” was released on April 15. (iTunes)

You know when you’re out with your dad at some fancy restaurant, and then you’re all like: “And another thing, DAD: You never let me do what I want! YOU NEVER SUPPORT MY DREAMS. I’ve grown to resent everything that you are, and that resentment has manifested itself through the art of fanciful dancing. NOW WATCH ME DANCE. RAWW, FUCK YOU!”

That’s basically how the Tarik Saleh-directed video for Lykke Li‘s new single “Sadness Is A Blessing” goes.

(No, but really…this video is absolutely stunning.)

Neon Hitch, one of MuuMuse’s favorite up-and-coming acts, has just unveiled a brand new cut from her forthcoming debut: “Silly Girl.”

The gypsy pop princess’ newest track–which gets a production assist from the likes of Switch (Beyoncé’s “Girls (We Run The World)”) and Benny Blanco (Ke$ha, Britney Spears)–is a complete reversal from her sweetly-sung, Robyn-esque debut, “Get Over U.” This time, things are about to get dirty.

Did you find your hips a-churnin’ and your body a-burnin’ to Ke$ha’s basement floor banger, “Sleazy”? Well, hang on to your forties, slut bags: Hitch’s newest smash falls right in line with K$’s almighty raunch-fest, complete with insanely warped vocals and filthy, warbling beats that grind relentlessly on repeat.

It’s winding, weird and all shades of wicked. Oh, Neon darling—you’ve got me hooked once again!

Fact: In Sweden, it is illegal to make bad music.

Okay, so this may not be empirically true, but it is a reality that the Swedes are known for exporting pop of the very highest quality. In my ongoing series, Amazing Things I’m Listening to From Sweden, I discuss the best Scandipop that’s been quietly slaying your faves.

Andreas Wijk – Like My Style

Andreas Wijk is a Swedish fashion blogger and model who looks like, well, a Swedish fashion blogger and model. (Photographic evidence here, here, and here. Please try not to kill yourself.) In typically life-isn’t-fair fashion, though, Andreas is additionally endowed with some impressive vocal gifts: A smooth, likable voice that would fit perfectly among, say, the boys of The Wanted. His debut single, “Like My Style” — and indeed we do, Andreas — is a surprisingly self-assured little pop bauble that sounds like Erik Hassle as produced by Dr. Luke. While there may not be a lot of crossover potential here, the combination of style and “Style” (see what I did there?) should be more than enough to attract the attention of teh gayz — who are, as we all know, the only listening audience that really count.

Beldina – Here We Go

The dopest bassline I’ve heard this year comes courtesy of Beldina Malaika, a Kenyan-Swedish neo-soul songbird whose new single, “Here We Go,” has been generating buzz all over the place. Instrumentally, it’s a nice throwback to 2007-era Justice, even if it does tread the well-traveled lyrical territory of prepping for a G.N.O. It doesn’t have the punk theatricality of Adiam Dymott or the twee levity of Asha Ali, but Beldina’s sound is slick, polished, and modern. I’d call it a welcome addition to the canon of Sweden-by-way-of-Africa vocalists.

Lykke Li – Sadness is a Blessing

Lykke Li’s sophomore effort, Wounded Rhymes, is a stunning hour of dark-as-pitch pop, but I’m particularly drawn to what’s slated to be the second UK single: “Sadness is a Blessing.” The track is both sad and majestic, without any of the preciousness that colored Youth Novels, and this confidence points to the artist’s developing sonic maturity. After all the brash swagger of “Get Some,” it’s refreshing to see Lykke return to a place of vulnerability.

Erik Hassle – Stay Away

I consider Erik Hassle the unsung hero of the Swedish pop scene. Sure, his music veers further toward the MOR pop-rock vein of The Fray or Snow Patrol than the icy electropop promulgated by Robyn and September, but I expected that this would result in a warmer international reception than the one he’s received; if a song as infectious as “Hurtful” can’t get radio play, then there is truly no justice in the world of music programming. “Stay Away” is the second single from his latest EP, Mariefred Sessions, following the MuuMuse Approved “Are You Leaving,” and it’s similarly melancholy, but with more strumming guitars than chilly synths. The fact that Mariefred Sessions went to #1 on the iTunes Sweden album chart the day it was released is a small consolation for this criminally underrated act.

Sara Lumholdt – Enemy

No shade to Eric Saade, but this was my favorite track to emerge from this year’s Melodifestivalen. It doesn’t hurt that Sara Lumholdt was once one-fourth of the epic bubblegum pop group A*Teens — alongside her better-known blonde counterpart, Marie Serneholt — and also performed circa 2007 under the pseudonym Sara Love, releasing a truly epic trash-pop single called “Glamour Bitch.” (Seriously.) History aside, “Enemy” swagga-jacks the hell out of Jordin Sparks‘ “Battlefield,” from the chord progression to the love-is-violence extended metaphor, and that is not a bad thing. So what if it’s derivative? It’s catchy, melodramatic, and highly listenable.

Oh, hey–look! I just got a promotional mailer from J. Lo‘s official website in my inbox!

It looks like she’s going to be appearing at The Grove this Friday (April 29) to celebrate her upcoming album release with fans for Extra TV. And–what’s this? The Glitterati edition of LOVE? comes autographed?! That sounds cool, exciting and FRESH!

I really want to purchase this product! Let’s click on this massive photograph of Jennifer Lopez so that I can send my dollars to Island Def Jam in exchange for music by Jennifer Lopez!

Wait…WUT.

Th-th-th-this is the remix!

The official “Till The World Ends (The Femme Fatale Remix)” featuring Ke$ha and Nicki Minaj has finally dropped on iTunes!

The official single art is alright and all, but I much prefer the one Muuser Jeremy F. left for me on my wall:

Isn’t it positively ferocious? Using it in my iTunes!

I AIN’T TALKIN’ POULTRY WHEN I SAY THIS CHICKEN’S FR-I-I-ED!

“Till The World Ends (The Femme Fatale Remix)” was released on April 24. (iTunes)
