Among other things, Madonna is hands down the Queen of Shock Factor when it comes to music and pop culture! After her killer "Living For Love" performance on Le Grand Journal in France, the singer stepped inside the show's infamous "Question Box" to answer some naughty inquires. The questions started out quite innocent, like "How do you seduce with your eyes" and "Is Britney Spears a good kisser?"...
This April, Liverpool trio The Wombats will release Glitterbug, their first album in four years. The band's busy touring and festival schedule played a part in in the stretch of time between LPs, as did frontman Matthew Murphy's personal exploration of the city of Los Angeles — something that also fueled the lyrical content of the tracks found on Glitterbug. Today UK listeners of Zane Lowe's BBC...
"There's only one Queen, and that's Madonna...bitch," Nicki Minaj once declared on Madonna's 2012 record, MDNA. Plenty can be said about Madonna's contributions to pop music (and pop culture, in general): From her fresh, bold vision for pushing the boundaries of pop music, to her provocative exploration of sexuality to her rather outspoken and#unapologetic political/social commentary, Madge has...
That didn’t take long! It’s only night three of the Blind Auditions, and the coaches of The Voice are already starting to get a little stir crazy. Unable to stay in one place for one instant longer, Adam Levine attempted his own mid-show Blind for fellow coaches Pharrell, Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton. His cover of Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer” earned not just a look of bored annoyance...
Who among us isn’t a Kelly Clarkson fan? As enormously talented as she is grounded, Kelly comes off more like an aww-shucks sweetheart than the owner of the greatest pipes on today’s pop charts. That said, however, “talented,” “grounded” and “sweetheart” can look boringly square next to more colorful pop goddesses. Given her comfy-as-mom-jeans rep, it’s sad but not surprising that...
The international Rebel Heart promotional campaign continues, this time with an emotional stop at Le Grand Journal in France. Having already made a stop at Jonathan Ross to talk about her now infamous stage tumble at the 2015 BRIT Awards, the Queen Of Pop continues to promote her upcoming 13th studio record with an interview on Le Grand Journal in Paris, in which she spoke out about gay rights,...
After premiering the tune live at the 2015 BRIT Awards, Kanye West has released the CDQ version of "All Day." The entertainer's performance of the song was boisterous and intense, thanks to a huge mob that flooded Ye's set and some wild flamethrowers! As expected with any transition from the stage to the studio, the energy is a little lessened — but don't think the official version doesn't bring...
There are certain things you'll always remember in the innermost canals of your mind: Your first kiss; that broody guy in philosophy class you never never had the courage to talk to who was chiseled from marble; your wedding day; and your inaugural play of Carly Rae Jepsen's "I Really Like You." In case your name is Rip Van Winkle and you missed the past 20 years or so, Carly Rae is the singer of “Call...
Marina And The Diamonds' Froot album is just around the corner, and the singer continues to release new tastes of "froot" leading up to the project's release. The latest song is simply titled "Forget," and it is yet another stunner. Marina's voice is syrupy-rich and full-bodied against the rock-tinged production, which includes electric guitars and pounding percussion. "Forget" is off Marina And...
