“It Starts Right Now.” That’s what Ryan Beatty declares on “Haircut”, the opening track of his debut album Boy In Jeans. It’s an autobiographical take on his journey so far. That’s the best way to describe his career so far: A journey. When Beatty broke onto the scene in 2011, he […]
The ArchAndroid I have followed Janelle Monáe since the release of her debut album The ArchAndroid. I guess you could say I was a casual fan at first; I bought the album and enjoyed it, but it ended there. I didn’t invest in learning too much about her. Then, Electric Lady came and […]
The Return of Shania Twain Things have changed significantly in Shania Twain’s life between 2002’s Up! and 2017’s Now. The abridged version: motherhood, infidelity, divorce, remarriage, and paralyzing vocal issues.

If this is Spicy, so is BBQ sauce. After creating a strong buzz in the fall with “Took Us A Break”, Lil’ Kim fails to keep the fire going on “Spicy”. She’s joined for the first time by fellow NYC legend Fabolous. The two cut the track barely a week […]
Get Into It! Inside Out ‘Camila’ Camila Cabello had quite a lead up to releasing her solo debut album. Formerly (and dramatically) titled The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving, the album rollout began in mid-2017 with a series of false starts. However, Camila’s road to solo stardom began years ago. Fans […]
Kylie Minogue Dances Into A New Genre Kylie Minogue makes her long-awaited return, a bit early. It’s been 3 years since her last non-holiday album Kiss Me Once, and fans are eagerly awaiting her return. So eager, that it was a feeding frenzy over the weekend when the lead single […]
This is the Lil’ Kim we’ve been patiently waiting for, and quite frankly, I’m geeking. 2005 marks the last time Lil’ Kim rolled out an official, full-length album (The Naked Truth). That all changes with “Took Us A Break”, the first taste of Lil’ Kim’s upcoming fifth studio album. The […]
