Susanna Hoffs has always been retro. As part of The Bangles, at times they had a 60’s go-go dancer sound. Her Under The Covers trilogy with Matthew Sweet and her solo cover albums (Bight Lights and The Deep End) spanned and borrowed a lot musically from the 60’s through the 80’s. With her new album,…
Katy Perry is back with a new album, 143, and it’s Katy Perry doing what Katy Perry does, pop music. Katy’s last few albums have felt formulaic, and 143 is the same. Each song is less than three and a half minutes to be radio friendly, guest vocalists (21 Savage, Kim Petras, Doechii, and JID)…
This is definitely my year of discovering many diva I like for their acting, also sing. First it was Nico Tortorella, then Kate Hudson and now Paris Hilton. Paris first got my attention, probably around the same time as everybody else, in 2003 when her sex tape was leaked and she starred in “The Simple…
Are you looking for some new music to walk your downward dog to? Do you need an in-store playlist for your crystal and oolong tea shop? Are you locked in the bathroom, soaking in a tub surrounded by candles and want tunes to tune out your screaming kids? Have I got the album for you!…
Ingrid Michaelson took a five-year hiatus between albums to work on the music and lyrics for the Broadway musical “The Notebook”. I’m totally into checking it out just because of her involvement, even though I didn’t think much of the movie it’s inspired by. It seems to have also inspired Ingrid to be in a…
I’ve been a fan of Rupaul’s Drag Race ever since the beginning (shocking, I know) and just finished season sixteen. Out of all those seasons, there has only been one queen that I became a fan of. Pandora Boxx from season two. Rupaul doesn’t always make the best decisions on Drag Race, in my gay…
Last year Griff dropped her EP Vert1go Vol 1 and then a few months ago she released the Ver2igo Vol 2 EP. Both are great and show the growth of Griff’s music, with more serious lyrics over her signature upbeat pop sound. These EP’s songs are combined with six new tracks to make up Griff’s…
I started June off by celebrating my favorite queer movie of all time, First Period, and decided to end Pride Month celebrating one of my favorite queer divas, Be Steadwell, and her new album Dear Ex: The Musical. Dear Ex is a musical that Be wrote because she had “never seen a musical about Black…
I’m not usually a fan of live albums, the sound is iffy at best and you have to listen to the roar of the crowd between songs. Also, the chit-chat between songs is enjoyable the first time but after multiple listens, not so much. With [The Live Album], Echosmith released a high-quality live album that…
It’s no secret or surprise that I am a huge Kate Hudson fan. From her rom-coms like “How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days” to her more serious roles in films like “The Skeleton Key” she’s someone that can always get by butt in a movie theater seat. When she released her book “Pretty…
