Over the years, T-Pain has gone from an unheralded “rappa ternt sanga” to a worldwide sensation with his own iPhone app, and now he’s trying to hang on to that momentum just a little bit longer with his new release rEVOLVEr (yes, T-Pain certainly seems to enjoy stylized English in his album titles).

I’m not one to doubt Lady Gaga’s artistic vision, but I do appreciate her taking us behind the curtain in this video. By explaining just a couple of her artistic choices, she is able to justify so much of the crazy stuff she’s done. As her videos have gotten longer and more bizarre, they have [...]

MTV.com and TMZ report that 2gether might be getting back – err – together. In case you no longer recall why 2gether sounds familiar, they were a mock boy band parodying the boy band craze of the late 1990s early 2000s. The group was featured in the movie of the same name, which portrayed how [...]
On November 24, Lupe Fiasco gave his listeners a couple more things to be thankful for. One, an album that fully redeems his recent mainstream misfire, Lasers.

Ever since Beyonce released the somewhat-transcendent video for “Single Ladies,” she has repeatedly gone back to the same formula for her videos: extremely sexual dancing, generally with a few of her equally sexy friends. For whatever reason, women see this as a symbol of female empowerment and not exploitation, but when they see other pop [...]

We can’t help but salute a Queen when one crosses our path. She is due the respect and honor she commands, especially when she wears the crown with dignity. Say what you will, Mary J.
