“Snake” (2003): R. Kelly
R. Kelly
“Snake”
Chocolate Factory
Jive Records
I guess the ghetto-ness of songs like “Ignition (Remix)” and “Feeling On Yo’ Booty” were beginning to run dry for R. Kelly so now he’s decided to depart from his ghetto ways and do something out of the ordinary, taking a page from Mystikal’s “Danger” video …
“The Secret Life of the Veronicas” by The Veronicas
Even though I am no longer a teenager, I like to keep up with the music that a lot of teenage girls listen to because I still feel young at heart. The Veronicas are the sort of artist that I imagine a lot of teenagers listen to. They remind …

Video: Emotions

“Vision of Love” may have been one thing but “Emotions” was Mariah Carey’s best breakthrough song that she ever did, at least in my humble opinion. “Emotions” is the first single and music video from Mariah Carey’s second album titled Emotions …

My Life by Mary J. Blige
If there is such a word such as a worth buy, then I really think that My Life by Mary J. Blige is it. It is a worthy investment to be purchasing this CD album. The songs are aplenty and it is really a good bargain for money. …

Young Guns (band)
After I heard the band Young Guns for the first time on an internet radio station about a year ago, they quickly became one of my favorite bands to date. It made me question first of all why exactly I didn’t hear of them before, and also why they don’t …
Michael Jackson’s Thriller album

Like Only a Woman Can by Brian McFadden
“Like Only a Woman Can” is a song by Brian McFadden, released in 2007. It is one of the singles of the album “Set in Stone”. I’ve been a big Westlife fan since I was still in grade two. I was so frustrated upon the band’s breaking. However, I’m …

Animal Collective - Two Corvettes (Song)

Slayer - Violent Pacification (Song)
Violent Pacification is a cover performed and recorded by Slayer for their album Undisputed Attitude. The song starts off with a very rapid bass line played by Araya, with a pretty bad tone I may add, with some guitars coming in and out to reinforce the rhythm. I will …

Puff Daddy ft. Hurricane G.
“P.E. 2000″
Forever

I’m not quite sure where things exactly went wrong for Puff Daddy. Perhaps he was lacking in what he does best or perhaps people just got tired of the Shiny Suit Era that he created? All I have to say …
Jason Mraz - Mr. A-Z
Although “hardcore” fans of Jason Mraz may be upset that he has finally become more mainstream, he proves to everyone with his sophomore studio album that he’s got staying power in today’s music industry. Formerly fairly unknown, Mraz is likely to become a household name among young and old …
Born to Be Wild and Easy Rider
Born to Be Wild and Easy Rider is an easy rock song. It is one of the few rock songs that I like. It has a great beat that just gets you to tapping your toes to the beat. It describes how we are all born to be wild …
“Death Church” by Rudimentary Peni (LP)
Six years after releasing 2 phenomenal hardcore-packed EP’s, “Rudimentary Peni” and “Farce”, Rudimentary Peni released “Death Church”, one of the darkest, gloomiest, bleakest punk records ever pressed and by far their most solid release to date.
Nick Blinko’s vocal style changes yet again; here it is a lot like …
Roll (song by Flo Rida feat. Sean Kingston)
Roll is a song on Flo Rida’s new album, Mail on Sunday. In the song entitled, Roll, he features Sean Kingston.

I do really love the music of Geoff Bullock II particularly his album “The Power of Your Love.” Listening to the album “Power of Your Love” will give you a one of a kind worship experience. The album is full of awesome and soul-reviving worship songs which include the …
Complete Me Deluxe Edition Album by FrankMusik
I’ve been a fan since I first heard Frankmusik’s break-out single “3 little words” at Last.fm. I couldn’t get enough of Frankmusik’s eclectic light and heady out-of-this-world pop melodies. There was so much anticipation for this album, his first one yet. It’s just too much auditory …
The Flaming Lips - Fight Test (Song)
Fight Test is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their record Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots. The song opens up with an echo-like effect and also sets up an atmosphere as if you’re in a huge arena of people watching a “fight test”, as the name …
The Flaming Lips - Halloween On The Barbary Coast (Song)

Outkast - The Way You move song

System Of A Down - Sugar (Song)
Sugar is a track which appears on System Of A Down’s self-titled debut record. I believe that among the songs on that first record, Sugar is probably the most well known, along with War, because of the music videos made for them. Sugar certainly demonstrates System Of A Down …
Slash-Godfather Theme (song)
Often during live performances with Guns N’ Roses, Slash would perform his guitar solo spot that transitioned into the first note that many ears would easily recognize as the theme to the Godfather Trilogy. It starts off with slow with a lot of sustain and vibrato. Then once it …
Type O Negative The Best Of Type O Negative
This is a greatest hits collection of songs from Type O Negative. The album was hastily thrown together and released with a generic album cover, and without the consent of the band, Roadrunner Records had the right to do it, so they did. This collection could be the reason …
Bob Dylan - Blowin’ In The Wind (Song)
Blowin’ In The Wind, one of Bob Dylan’s most famous and ionic songs throughout his extremely lengthy career proves to certainly meet it’s reputation as the track itself is just great. As with most early Bob Dylan, or rather most Bob Dylan for that matter, the track isn’t driven …
Megadeth - Holy Wars… The Punishment Due (Music Video)
Overview —“ Holy Wars—¦ The Punishment Due, the lead off track of Megadeth’s most acclaimed record, Rust In Peace, is only one of nine examples of why this album is praised to highly. Although not the only reason why this album was so good, but definitely one of the …
For Love Of Innocence
Who could have blamed those who denied hope of any future for Nightwish? With Opera metal hidden so deeply in the Finnish shadows, surely anybody would feel threatened by a band with power metal guitar chords, techno inspired keyboard tunes and a lead singer trained in the style of …
Four Minutes (song by, Madonna ft. Justin Timberlake)
I think everyone knows who Madonna is and who Justin Timberlake is and so these two popular singers did a combination in Madonna’s newly released song named “Four Minutes (to save the world)” from her new album entitled Hard Candy. I first heard Four Minutes on the local radio …

The Osmonds: Live in Concert CD
The Osmonds have a number of different lives in the recording industry. This incarnation had them performing at the Osmond Family Theater in Branson, Missouri. The songs were performed by Alan, Wayne, Jay, and Jimmy. It seems a little strange not to have that familiar bear …
Cream - We’re Going Wrong (Song)
We’re Going Wrong is a song by Cream which appears on their album Disraeli Gears. Opening up with a few guitar chords and a steady drum rhythm behind, the song initially has a fairly somber mood and it makes me curious if Cream will explore this further as it …

Maybe it’s because i …

Stone Temple Pilots - Plush (song)
“Plush” is to date The Stone Temple Pilots biggest hit. Although it appears as the second single released from their 1992 debut album “Core”, it happens to be the bands most notable song. That’s saying a lot considering the bands decently long career and all the heckling and criticism …
Metallica - Through The Never (Song)
Through The Never, another one of the more aggressive songs on The Black Album, isn’t obviously as good as songs from the first four records, but nevertheless another pretty solid track, similar to Holier Than Thou in that respect. Although the vocal melody is pretty catchy on this track …
Sound Peace - David & Steve Gordon
