Earlier, I laid on the couch to take a short nap. Three and a half later I wake up and I feel behind. That's how I feel about this "Dreams" track, which we slipped in unnoticed the other day . Now, here's the CDQ for the masses. Elements..., 12.15. Rah-rah-siss-boom-bah. I wave the pom-pom's for my boo. Download - Alicia Keys - "Dreaming" [CDQ]

Hey folks, just a quick note to let you know we'll be liveblogging the American Music Awards this Sunday night (ABC, 8/7central — we'll be here for the Pacific time zone broadcast) so please come by as we bow down to/bitch about who won what, who blew whom off the stage and who ripped off Lady Gaga's look most blatantly. A few things we should all reasonably expect to see: :: Janet Jackson opening yet another awards show with an eight-minute medley of her hits, followed by her getting winded after repeat visits to the [...]

by chris carpenter Alright. Somebody has to talk about this. I'm down. If you happen to live in or around New York City, there's an unavoidable force majeure with every passing car. "IN NEWW YOOoooorkkkk." The frequency hits you full blast as the car is by your side, and drowns out as it zooms by. You think you're safe until you reach the end of the block and the bar on the corner is in full symposium, "These [...]
There's something about that damn city. While watching the above clip of my wife debuting part two of "Empire State Of Mind" last night during a live performance in Tribeca, I began to reflect on what made New York so great to so many. After much reflection (about 12 seconds), it dawned on me that unlike many cities NY spins well. New Yorkers are a proud people. Proud of damn near everything. Big, small, good bad, name it. If it's New York, it's sacred. So much so that we'll one-up you on your flaws [...]
[via RapRadar ] BTW: I've been f-cking SLEEPING on that "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart" track.

Watch the video for it HERE . Also, regular readers may have noticed the posting has slowed down drastically in the past few days. I'm in job hunting mode right now and, as simple as the content on [...]

If you noted the inclusion of "Empire State Of Mind (Part II)" on Alicia Keys' The Element Of Freedom tracklist with a roll of the eyes, consider this: it appears to be much more than a retread. The version she performed for iHeartRadio's Stripped Live yesterday, at least, represented a fully distinct song, save that ubiquitous hook. Catch Alicia performing "Empire State Of Mind (Part II)" following the jump. First impression? Her "sequel" actually manages to create some more anthemic points than did the Jay-Z [...]
Alicia Keys Empire State Of Mind Part 2 Ft. Jay-Z - Here is a brand new song from Alicia Keys called "Empire State of Mind (Part 2)" which she premiered during a live performance for iHeartRadio.

Bon Jovi bumped Carrie Underwood down and rocked their way to the top of the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart with The Circle in a week that is pretty much the calm before the high-profile release storm. But— yeeowch! —the 163,000 copies the New Jersey band moved over the seven days sales were tracked is quite a dip from the 292,000 their last set, Lost Highway , did. Alt rock act Flyleaf also debuted in the Top 10 (#8) with Memento Mori , but, really, all [...]
