Justin Bieber Drops New Single! Listen To Boyfriend HERE!

Filed under: Canadialand > Justin Bieber

We love the Biebs's, but we're not quite sure how we feel about his just-released new single, Boyfriend, the first off his upcoming album!

The song is definitely not playing it safe. It's a risky move, one that could backfire or one that could prove quite sensation! We don't know yet.

To its credit: Boyfriend is a much more mature sound for Justin. AND it's unlike anything else on Top 40 radio right now.

Working against it: it's unlike anything else on Top 40 radio right now and we are not feeling the rapping/spoken word bits! It's not an OBVIOUS smash, like the Bieber collab with Far East Movement and RedOne. It also feels like it's trying TOO HARD to be Timberlake.

Check out Boyfriend above and let us know what YOU think in the comments!!!!

Coors Light Ice T Is Coming!

Filed under: Alcohol

Coors iced T

To Canada.

Womp, womp!

Sorry if we got our fellow Americans' hopes up, but we're going to have to wait a little (or a lot) longer to try Coors Light's alcoholic iced tea line.

Molson Coors Brewing Co. announced on Tuesday that their new brew will be released in Canada because consumers are more interested in flavored beers. The company did not mention when or if the product would migrate down south, but it didn't rule it out either.

Apparently, this is Molson's attempt to drive up profits. On top of the Iced T, we (or just Canada) can also expect a limited-time-only beer with citrus flavors called Carling Zest, plus an autumn-inspired Leinenkugels beer.

Will U be tasting Molson Coors' new products when they become available near you?
