Bob Dylan, Christmas in the Heart
Bob Dylan's Christmas in the Heart is the American folk-rocker's first covers album of holiday songs. All US royalties from the record will be donated to Feeding America (formerly America's Second Harvest), the leading hunger-relief charity in the US. Christmas in the Heart features covers of "Must Be Santa," "Little Drummer Boy," "Winter Wonderland" and "Here Comes Santa Claus."

Mario, D.N.A.
American R&B singer-actor Mario releases his fourth studio album, D.N.A., with help from American record producers The-Dream (Rihanna) and Babyface (Madonna). Mario has long been considered the runner-up male R&B superstar of the moment, second to American R&B singer Chris Brown. Given Brown's current travails with the law (performing prolonged community service for an alleged assault), all eyes are on Mario to possibly assume the crown of R&B king with D.N.A.
Genre: R&B
