The music to the “We Are Marshall,” movie is absoutley a masterpiece of music. The interesting thing is I did not realize how good “We Are Marshall” was while viewing the movie. I have viewed the movie twice. I knew the music was there, but was so involved with the story and dialogue I […]
this is an alum that you can ride to from beginning to end. you might want to skip 2 of the tracks though.trick always keeps it hot. his albums are hotter than south beach. the only track that i dont like is the one with baby about ice. trick is mot supposed to rap […]
I was excited for this CD when the single “Shortie Like Mine” was released. However, that’s easily the best song on this album, and most of the other material is far below that level of quality. I’m a big fan of Jermaine Dupri’s production, but most of the beats here are pedestrian and very […]
I have been a fan of RBD’s Spanish music before getting their English album. Although my friend despises it, I find it fun and interesting. I am annoyed by the translators because they tried to do it word-for-word. But the group itself should be given some slack. Their accents make the music interesting. Without […]
For this raw limited-edition CD+DVD version of Living With War, the critically acclaimed original album, Neil Young strips away the choir, ratchets up the guitars and blasts away with all the passion and volume worth of one of rock’s greatest singer-songwriters. In addition, packaged with the new audio CD is a DVD featuring video […]
Oh my god this album is hot. I always saw Styles P as second best to Jadakiss but now… I’m confused. Definitely one of the strongest efforts to come out of any Lox member. On the mic Styles P is fire, spitting his trademark grime laced with political commentary. Already a proven master of […]
This beautiful, touching cycle of five love songs on poems by Pablo Neruda was composed by Peter Lieberson for his wife, Lorraine Hunt Lieberson. They were first presented in Los Angeles in May, 2005. This recording, coming as it does just months after Hunt Lieberson’s untimely death, is a fitting tribute to her art. […]
Given its provocative title, it’s no surprise that parts of Hip Hop Is Dead feel like an elegy of sorts. Nas practically came into the game looking backwards (see “Memory Lane” off Illmatic) but he seems more nostalgic than ever with tracks like “Where Are They Now?,” “Carry on Tradition,” “Can’t Forget About You,” […]

A troupe of dancers in skin-colored body suits had Japanese national broadcaster NHK apologizing to viewers of its New Year’s Eve music special for what seemed to be a full-scale Janet Jackson-style wardrobe malfunction.
The dancers, who all appeared to be topless and wore skimpy bikini-style bottoms and feathered head-dresses, covered the stage during a performance […]
Looks like Tom Petty won’t back down after all. The veteran rocker says he’s not retiring, despite a Rolling Stone article in July that suggested otherwise.
Petty said 2006 was one of the most rewarding years in his career, and he expects the ride to continue in 2007.
“You never know how things are going to […]
It was more than a loss of two innovative players on the Detroit hip-hop scene.
Producer and rapper Jay Dee and rapper and label owner Proof championed Detroit music — and helped export the city’s musical imprint to a national audience.
They died within two months of each other in 2006, Jay Dee in February from complications […]
After several years of turmoil and declining resources, the classical-music community settled into a period of recovery in 2006.
Some long-standing questions were answered: Who would become the seventh music director of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra? Who would be its new executive director? And would Opera Columbus survive its second near-death experience in 25 years?
The final curtain has fallen on this very public affair.
Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey have settled the division of their assets, according to court documents.
While the ex-Newlyweds have technically been singletons and free to marry others since June, with great success comes great responsibility. For their lawyers and accountants, that is.
Details of the settlement were […]
