Before I ever listened to Stewart I read a short discussion with singer/songwriter Andrea Tarka regarding the title of their new album, Kicks.

With her first debut album, Janelle Monae isn't new to contemporary pop mixed with funk and R&B music. Her 2003 EP was a huge release for Bad Boy Records away from Rap music. This album surely does a good job of driving the label and their image away from rap mu... Comment - Like

I loved Green Day before I ever went to my first show. By 1994 they had already surpassed their punk roots and broke into the “alternative” mainstream. Harder and catchier than their grunge peers, Green Day brought pop punk to suburban high schools, with a vengeance. Since that time there has be... Comment - Like

So, with that said, once I heard about this album I was pretty sure I was going to be psyched on it. The premise of The Seven ... Comment - Like
