Pope Benedict XVI has been nominated for a Brit Award in the classical music category, for his vocals on the album Alma Mater – Music From the Vatican.
Once it was considered a big deal for actors to “cross over” and launch musical careers, but in recent years even the U.S. President, Barack Obama, has managed [...]

Since it was released on January 5th, I haven’t been able to stop listening to Ke$ha’s debut album, Animal. In fact, I like it so much that less than halfway through the first month of the year, I’m prepared to claim that it could be the best debut of 2010.
You only need to glance at [...]

Forget about Jimi Hendrix, Slash and even Michaelangelo Batio (sorry Canada), because to me, Kaki King is the best guitarist ever.
I first saw her on Leno a few years ago and was amazed. Where other musicians simply “play the guitar”, King transforms the instrument into something else entirely. Beneath her fingers the guitar becomes an [...]

I was seriously just about to embed this lovely acoustic cover of T.I.’s “Whatever You Like” by Anya Marina (and as featured on Gossip Girl during a threesome involving Hilary Duff) when Veronique Vega linked to a different, but nonetheless “superior” version on twitter.

When a pop star releases an album entitled Rated R, you would be forgiven for thinking that it might contain themes of a sexually suggestive nature. In the case of Rihanna’s newest album, however, it seems far more likely that the title relates to violence.
On the record, the Barbadian bombshell makes reference to firearms more [...]

“New versus, please.”
Yesterday I wrote about the types of controversy that inevitably surround the MTV Video Music Awards. It should come as no surprise then that there was once again controversy at the ceremony this year, when Kanye West stormed the stage in order to tell everyone that he is in love with Beyoncé.

An examination of how many times the word “crazy” (or its derivatives) appear throughout the complete Britney Spears discography.
Album: Baby One More Time (1999)
Craziness: 12
It might be hard to believe, but only one song contributes to the tally on Britney’s first album. The word “crazy” not only appears in that song’s title, but also eleven [...]
