September’s Album Releases, Part 1.
Ah, September. Cooler nights, layers, fall air, and…tons of new music? Who knew that this month would be filled to the brim with album releases? I have so much music I want to share that I need to make this post a two-parter. Let’s take a look at what’s coming up:
So You Think You Can Dance: ‘Top 8’ Music Highlights
A top 6 already?! This week’s episode of So You Think You Can Dance was, in a word, intense. The eliminations portion gets especially stressful and heartbreaking at this point of the competition so imagine my reaction when my favorite male dancer got voted off. It was a Yelling Fest. Thank goodness for the always […]
So You Think You Can Dance: ‘Top 10 Perform’ Music Highlights
Before I begin my mini recap of this week’s music from So You Think You Can Dance, I apologize for my lateness – my birthday was yesterday and it turned out to be much more busy and eventful than I thought it would be. But enough about me! Wednesday’s episode brought back the all-stars, who are […]
Music Video: Beyonce, ‘I Was Here’ (United Nations Humanitarian Day Performance)
Queen Bey has graced us with an amazing video of her special performance at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on August 10th.

Listen: Island Music to Top Off Your Summer
The end of summer is approaching and the feeling is bittersweet. But the season isn’t quite over yet, which makes the songs I’ll be sharing with you totally appropriate.

So You Think You Can Dance: ‘Top 14 Perform’ Music Highlights
Tonight’s episode was all about the top 14 and choreographer Mia Michaels. All 8 routines (that’s including the amazing opening group routine) were choreographed by Michaels. While I was scratching my head over how she could choreograph and teach all those pieces in such a short time span, I soon learned that each couple’s piece […]
Free download: Dijon Talton, ‘Wild Out’
If you ever watched the first season of the musical television show Glee, you may recognize Dijon Talton from his role as glee club member Matt Rutherford. From the looks of it, Talton has managed to keep himself nice and busy since his time on the show by working on two movies (indie drama I […]
Listen: Mumford & Sons, ‘I Will Wait’
Today Grammy-nominated folk band Mumford & Sons dropped their new song “I Will Wait” from their upcoming album Babel (which is set for a September 24 release). Take a listen to the banjo-licious track here:
August’s Album Releases
A bunch of new albums are lined up for this month. Which one(s) are YOU going to pick up?
So You Think You Can Dance: ‘Second Live Performance/Second Elimination’ Music Highlights
By the end of last night’s episode, SYTYCD found themselves with a top 14. They changed the show’s format for this season – 4 eliminations instead of 2 each week and 2 winners instead of 1 – so the eliminations have been swifter and harsher than usual. Now for another star of the show: the […]
