One of the most exciting things Little Mix has done recently was perform a cover of Rupaul’s song “Sissy That Walk” at London’s G-A-Y club. The UK girl group are currently preparing for the release of their third studio album “Get Weird” and while their lead single “Black Magic” sounded a bit too similar to…
SINGLE REVIEW: Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Downtown
Who doesn’t want a rap song about Mopeds? Like why not, right? Macklemore and Ryan Lewis had me sold the second I heard this line; “you don’t need an Uber, you don’t need a cab, forget a bus pass, you got a moped man”. The salesperson sold him that Moped and he just sold me…
SINGLE REVIEW: 5 Seconds Of Summer – Jet Black Heart
It’s no secret that 5 Seconds Of Summer haven’t been impressing me recently with their lackluster live show and painfully terrible singles for their upcoming second studio album. I gave up hope for this new album but they’ve finally released a song which has restored my interest just a tiny bit. “Jet Black Heart” is…
SINGLE REVIEW: Simple Plan – Boom
It’s been four years since we’ve had a Simple Plan album…. Yeah, it’s very much overdue. The Canadian pop/rock group have finally released the first single from their highly anticipated fifth studio album. They’ve always been borderline pop/rock with gimmicky lead singles but “Boom” takes it to a whole new level. “Jet Lag” was pretty…
SINGLE REVIEW: Carrie Underwood – Smoke Break
Sometimes you just need to escape what’s going on in your life even just for a couple of minutes and Carrie Underwood has just released an Country anthem that is all about finding that much needed time. “She said, I don’t drink, But sometimes I need a stiff drink. Sipping from a high, full glass…
ALBUM REVIEW: Gin Wigmore – Blood To Bone
Gin Wigmore is one of my favourite New Zealand musicians and for good reason. Her voice will command your attention with the raw soul, her lyrics will touch you and the hook will have you singing along instantaneously. Over the past couple of years her tracks have been picking up traction in the U.S featuring…
ALBUM REVIEW: Jordin Sparks – Right Here, Right Now
There is a lot of talk about Jordin Sparks “finally” maturing and finding her sound with her third studio album but I couldn’t disagree more. This album confuses with a hybrid of RNB and Pop that sees her trying to channel the recent success of Tinashe and Jhene Aiko but she just appears lost. Her…
TRINGLE ALERT: JoJo
What is a Tringle I hear you ask? Apparently it’s the simultaneous release of three singles at once and your old mate JoJo has decided to implement that for the promotion of her upcoming third studio album. “Too Little Too Late” and “Leave (Get Out)” were two of the best songs of the early 2000’s…
SINGLE REVIEW: Nick Jonas – Levels
What is this magical “Rooftop” that Nick Jonas wants to desperately take us all to on his new single “Levels”? Honestly I’m still not sure, but apparently he wants to ride an elevator there and “high-five Jesus” at the top. This new song is lyrically a messy and offers no real clear story except that…
ALBUM REVIEW: Short Stack – Homecoming
Over a year ago pop punk trio Short Stack announced their return to the music industry after a short lived hiatus. Since then they have released an EP, played a lot of shows and introduced a new wave of fans to their die-hard fan base. Their long awaited third studio album is finally here and…
