Michelle Williams Blesses BBC Gospel Proms With Her Presence


The BBC Proms have added a Gospel night to their annual festivities at the Royal Albert Hall- praise the Lord!

And I'm sure, like all of you, when I think of Gospel music, only one name comes to mind. That's right: Michelle "Destiny's Child" Williams. Having been tirelessly waving the flag for Christian music since Mathew Knowles forced her into the lane so she wouldn't be a danger to his daughter  her release back into the wild post-DC, the Diva has practically become the face of the religion, worldwide.

Rihanna-Rejected "Cheap Thrills" Bags Sia Her First Hot 100 #1


Congratulations are in order for faceless Diva, Sia.

The infectious  Cheap Thrills has rocketed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, finally wrestling the crown from Drake's AWFUL (yeah, I said it, come for me, bitches!!) One Dance.

[Free For All Friday]


zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

If you don't know the score, here be the rules:
  • Try not to get too perverted- this site needs to basically be "safe for work".
  • If somebody starts a controversial subject, try keeping it civil when dealing with it. If things get out of hand please flag the conversation.
  • It would be nice if it stuck to music, but it's not a requirement! So talk about news, current events, how you're getting your hair done next time you hit the hairdresser! Whateves, really!
  • No nasty comments aimed at other users.
Inappropriate hugs to all of y'all (hi-fives to the underagers), and wishing you an awesome weekend!

Celine Dion Dutty Whines during "Wheel of Musical Impressions"


Celine Dion has the most infectiously enthusiastic attitude. So, as soon I read that she'd taken part in The Tonight Show's Wheel Of Musical Impressions, I knew it was going to make for good viewing.

Loose and game, Celine didn't only serve vocal likenesses. She went a step further, embodying their physicalities, too. Her dusty Dutty Whine- during Work- wasn't something I knew I needed, but I'll be henceforth thanking the universe for it being delivered unto me.

Damn you Fallon for cutting it short. It would have ended up in a full on slut-drop! I just know it!

[New Music] Demi Lovato - "Body Say"


Katy Perry, Britney Spears and now Demi Lovato, all releasing new music on this weekend eve. There must be something in the water!

'80s in flavour, Body Say is another saucy song from the oft-salty Diva. Laid back and breezy in production, the vocals are similar in tone, kept (pretty) restrained. It's the cooing and sensual delivery of Demi that is, for the most part, left to reel in a listener.

[Music Video] Clean Bandit Return With "Tears"


Clean Bandit are a guilty pleasure of mine.

Though I've never dived into their album(s?), I can't deny I've enjoyed the singles they've put out. But why a guilty pleasure? Because there's something naff/corny/disingenuous about this feature-loving group. I can't put my finger on what, but it's there, gnawing at me whenever I listen to their classical/dance-fusing material.  

Come Over is one track that takes these feelings to almost unhealthy levels. (Maybe hearing it will help some you vaguely understand what I'm rabbiting on about.)
