Ladies and Gentlemen. Are you ready? To take another trip. From new school to old, from groovin to dancin', from singin' to bangin' your bead, from likin' to lovin' good music. Dj Merlin and Blind I are proud to present the latest installment in the Be Advised Series. Dj Merlin's Be Advised Vol. 2 . If you listen closely the songs are inspired by love because it's something that your heart beats for and that was my inspiration for this edition. Who says talking about love has to always be mushy and in slow songs? Do it [...]

The Monkees were sometimes derided for being a "manufactured" TV band , but that didn't stop others from seeking out fame and musical success through the small screen in subsequent years. With the passing of Davy Jones today , we thought we'd revisit some of the more colorful acts to eke out a pop career by way of our TV sets. Tune in to our roundup below! 7. O-Town Wow. This really happened, didn't it? Creepy (and since-incarcerated)) boy band czar Lou Pearlman slapped ( ahem [...]
It was right after she first began posting demos on her MySpace-songs like 20072s spacey "Surveillance" (which remains as next level today as it did the day she unleashed it upon the world), that I first took notice of Wynter Gordon , the 23-year-old underdog with a superstar's worth of potential waiting to be unleashed each time she lays a pen to paper. Just a few years after graduating from LaGuardia's High School for the Performing Arts (alma mater of such notable acts as Kelis and Nicki Minaj ), the young [...]
Theo goes in on this acoustic sample of Cudder's Day n Nite. <p><a href=" http://theomartins.bandcamp.co m/track/day-n-nite-ft-kyle-luc as-d-woods-of-danity-kane">Day N Nite Ft. Kyle Lucas & D.Woods (of Danity Kane) by TheoMartins</a></p>
A new O'Day has come! Ever since Diddy unceremoniously ditched the Danity Kane divas nearly three years ago (one of the world's greater pop injustices of all time), former member Aubrey O'Day has made it clear that she would not be deterred from her pop star dreams. O'Day, the group's most outspoken and audicious (Aubreycious?) member, decided to remain true to her Making The Band roots, signing on to film a Oxygen Channel reality series in 2010 called All About Aubrey . The series premiered [...]
REJOICE, ONE AND ALL: IT'S A BRAND NEW O'DAY! Aubrey O'Day is finally releasing new music! "Automatic," which first leaked as a demo months ago, will act as the debut single from O'Day's forthcoming solo studio album, which is expected to be released later this year on SRC/Universal Motown Records. From Billboard : " 'Automatic' is the right fit for where music is headed now," O'Day explains. "It's a pop-dance track, but I wanted to go in the club and write a [...]
Day26 and Danity Kane were probably the most successful acts to come out of Diddy's Making The Band series. Both had successful debut albums that reached #1 on the charts and highly ranking sophomore releases. This week's song comes from Day26's second album Forever In A Day. It was one of my favourites on the [...]
Oh hi! Remember me? I barely do... considering the whirlwind'rishing sort of week we've had since right before Christmastime factivities and still continuing on through this moment. Seriously, this very minute right now. Neither here nor there, though, cause I was simply going to leave this space untouched til the new set of calendrical offerings, but that's not really fair to you or me. I need a hot few seconds to breathe and release and let my weird words fly, so herein, a brief catchup. And hopefully 'tis not the last til [...]
While Nicki The Ninja Lewinsky Harajuku Barbie Minaj may be getting all the glory as Young Money 's reigning first lady, there's another woman in the crew slowly preparing to have her turn at bat: Meet Shanell . + Shanell is a singer/songwriter under Young Money, and quite a good and versatile one at that. + She is the sister of former Danity Kane member D. Woods , high school friend of Bangladesh , and former back-up dancer for Real Housewives of Atlanta 's Kandi Burruss [...]
I love(d) Danity Kane . No, seriously: I watched the entirety of Making The Band . I stanned for those bitches hard. And to this day, I listen to their 2007 self-titled debut and 20082s Welcome To The Dollhouse like the albums were released yesterday. As one of the five breakout members of Diddy 's mismanaged exercise in excellence, Aubrey O'Day consistently stood out as one of the more outspoken, outrageous personalities in the group-so much so that their eventual break-up was rumored to be caused by [...]
There were five things that immediately drew me to HerStory : 1.) Their name, which is ridiculous. 2.) The following line from the press release: "From the Supremes to Destiny's Child , the R&B girl group has solidified its place in music. It's time to welcome the future." 3.) The fact that one of them (Miriah) is wearing a Grace Jones tee in their promo pictures. 4.) Their brief-but-amazing cover of Alicia Keys ' "Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)." 5.) A promising first single. And [...]
It's recently come to my attention that far too little attention is paid to my R&B songstresses as of late-it's time to change that. "Rhythm & Muuse" is a 15-track collection of just a taste of the finest R&B-laced cuts I've come to love over the past few years, from Cassie to Amerie to Ciara and K. Rowland , with loads of amazing artists fit snugly in between. This was an impossible MuuCast to create-mostly because I started out with 45 potential tracks. As a result, it's clear that [...]
People steal your music and post it online after working for days to record and write a song. It sucks. As anyone who's been reading MuuMuse knows by now, Wynter Gordon is one of the most anticipated artists on the brink of breaking out onto the music scene. As a songwriter, she's already worked to pen tracks for artists like Jennifer Lopez ("What is Love?"), Mary J. Blige ("Gonna Breakthrough"), and Danity Kane ("Two of You"). As an artist, she's been featured on [...]

Whether you are celebrating Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Christmas, or whatever else please have the best time possible even if it feels like the year has been horrible. Our suggestion is to find joy in the smallest things. With that we will be enjoying our Christmas day in full form. Below are some songs for the Christmas holiday; some conventional and some not.

dirty money - love come down [i'm not usually interested in the projects that diddy is associated with, but the idea of a trio featuring the rapper and two female vocalists (including dawn, ex-from danity kane) in the vein of soul II soul or loose ends, is very appealing to me. check out some of their releases!] dirty money feat notorious b.i.g. - angels [biggie... i just love his voice. as for this song, it's nice, but damn is the autotune in overdrive!] dirty [...]
For those still not able to move on since the dismantling of Danity Kane, at least there's new group Dirty Money to ease your anguish. The heavyweight trio formed earlier this year and consists of former DK member Dawn Richards, her original mentor Diddy and Kalenna Harper. And, hark—Dirty Money's video for single "Love Come Down" (sadly, not an Evelyn "Champagne" King cover) made it's way onto XXLMag.com today. Check out the clip of the Jay-Z-borrowing song below: Both "Love Come Down" and Dirty Money track "Angels," yet another jam [...]
Make no bones about, the Subdrive crew kids are on a tear through the iNet, in every effort to mkae you sweat like none other. Seriously, I've never left one of their sets without needing a fresh pair of jorts for the ride home. And now, rising star, VIKING , has taken his buddy, Terror Dactel 's track, DTF , and given it a fresh wash of funky electroslicing. For serious, this mix is the jam. If you're at work, you may have [...]
