Non solo album e singoli. Una canzone ha anche un video che l'accompagna ed è una parte integrante e importante del successo. Una buona riuscita può provocare un passaparola tra il pubblico che inizia a conoscere sempre più il pezzo grazie -magari- ad un concept originale e vincente alla base. E così, oggi, dopo il salto potete leggere la top ten dei video musicali del 2012 secondo Digital Spy. Scelte che, da un lato, possono essere condivise ma che, in altri casi, fanno scuotere la testa per la posizione assegnata. Sono sicuro , ad esempio, che [...]
Welcome to the end of 2012. And possibly the world as a whole if you're so inclined to believe. Once again, we've taken the stray thoughts that fell through the cracks in our Annual Report and compiled them into one (hopefully) comedic list. As my esteemed colleague Jeremy Larson wrote last year , "Year-end summaries, lists, recaps, and reports are just study guides for an exam that’s never happening, you guys ." True, but by listing things and poking a little fun, we're doing our part to remind you that the music industry can be [...]

Happy July 4th — well, almost. Whether you're planning to celebrate Independence Day by throwing a BBQ, watching some fireworks or going to a midnight screening of Katy Perry 's Part Of Me 3D we know you'll be doing so in your red, white and blue. Our favorite pop stars, however, don't have to wait until July 4th to wear something patriotic — they sport the stars and stripes whenever and however they please. From Ke$ha 's nearly frightening flag-themed facepaint to Britney Spears [...]

Sometimes the best music comes from the most unexpected places. Throughout pop history, music acts have teamed up on remixes, side projects and duets that have left us both pleased and perplexed (take Nicki Minaj , Ke$ha and Britney Spears ' "Till The World End" and Danger Mouse and Cee Lo Green 's brainchild, Gnarls Barkley for example). So we got to thinking about other pop star pair-ups [...]
Siamo soliti vedere ed immaginare le star nel momento stesso in cui riscuotono il grande successo che le rende cantanti a livello internazionale. Nicki Minaj e il suo essere, diciamo, estroversa, oppure Lana Del Rey sensuale e riservata, una Katy Perry, fumettosa e zuccherosa con il suo "Teenage Dream" o una provocante Lady Gaga. Ma come erano prima di diventare famosi? Come provavano ad avere successo? Erano esattamente come le conosciamo oggi? Scopriamolo insieme dopo il salto: Cantanti prima di diventare famosi [...]

Its Friday and this is how we do it. Don't know about you, but I just got my coffee game on and Im feeling that caffeine high right about now. Powered right through that 2:30 wall like it was blue cotton-candy. And I love that shite. Just marf'n on it. Anyway, enough of this noise. Lets be honest, you're here for the chuneage.

With global warming, political unrest, and a cratered international economy serving as the shaky pillars of today's world, we need pop music now more than ever. On one hand, you could argue that maybe pop music serves to distract us from the wars politicians are waging on civilians, but on the other, consider this: Pop has always been, even and especially with its most capitalist of intentions, escapism. As hopeless headlines continue to paint dark horizons for us, pop is one of the few lights to shine through and inspire whimsy. Even the harshest skeptic has no choice but to [...]
It's the last week of March and you need some spring in your step. So here are this week's picks for what we think need to be (re)visited. Grimes Talks About Her Goth Roots, Music That She Listens To, and Her Next Hair Color Half of the internet has got a crush on the eccentric and enigmatic Grimes, and we got to speak with her about some essential world issues, such as what her next hair color will be. Chicago Artists You Should Know [...]
Katy Perry - Getty Katy Perry and Lana Del Rey landed in Berlin, Germany yesterday (March 22) to perform their latest singles at the 2012 Echo Awards. Katy's new video for her latest chart-topping single "Part Of Me" features the pop princess lacing up her combat boots in bootcamp, but for her Echo Awards performance of the track, she had a weird futuristic space girl theme as she threw on a sparkly bodysuit, long blue ponytail, and (awkwardly) danced around the stage with her dancers.

Pop fans got a double dose of diva this week as new videos from Madonna and Katy Perry premiered. And with One Direction and The Wanted further infiltrating the American charts, it was also a big week for boy bands from across the pond. These music happenings naturally had an impact on our weekly Hype Index , as did the announcements of the first post-baby concerts from Beyonce and Lady Gaga's media blackout. See how pop's movers and shakers ranked below! [...]
Did You Hear? :: Kanye West and Jay-Z's Maybach from their "Otis" video was sold at auction for $60,000. It's original price (as an fully functional luxury car) was $350,000, and the deconstructed model - auctioned as "a piece of art" - was expected to sell for $100,000. What, no one wants to spend 100 G's on a piece of music video art? [ PopCrush ] :: Lana Del Rey tributes Frank Sinatra (and her abs) while at a Guns 'N Roses concert in LA.
