80s music
The 80s were chockful of New Wave power ballads, synthesizers, drum machines, and no shortage of Madonna and Michael Jackson.
We All Feel Like “That Girl” Listening To Beyonce’s Renaissance — Album Review
Beyonce is a household name that needs no introduction. The queen is back again serving vocals like never before. On my first listen-through of the album, I was vibing to the sick production and the smooth-as-butter transitions between songs. However not much stuck out to me. It took me a couple more listens to realize that this sound reminded me of watching queens and kings leave everything on the stage at drag shows.

Some Dawn Singles You Will Love, I Certainly Do
Introduction As you know I have a big CD collection and I sell a lot on Discogs (my store only sells CDs and is below). I often take CDs out of my sale pile to make sure they play OK. I always visually check them but sometimes even perfect-looking CDs don’t play properly.

One Of Coventry’s Finest Sons Has Left Us
Introduction Terry Hall died aged 63 after a short illness, two years younger than me. I first came across Terry as lead singer with the multi cultural Two Tone ska band The Specials with their EP "Too Much Too Young", the title track being a superb social commentary for the time.

30 Great Songs of Donna Summer. Top Story - December 2022.
Donna Summer achieved major success throughout her career. She made it into the Top 10 with 14 songs in the US and has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide. To this day her albums still sell about 1.5 million copies per year every year and her fan base is as strong and fervent as it was in the 1970s. I love Donna Summer. Her voice was amazing. I would go so far as to call her one of the greatest vocalists of all-time.

How can you easily get freelancing benefits?
Outsourcing offers a ton of adaptability as well as opportunity which your standard occupation can't offer. While filling in as a consultant, you, yourself, pursue decisions that fit your singular assets and requirements. In an outsourcing position, you conclude that what sort of work you need to do, with whom you need to team up, the volume of your work, the area of your work, what time you will work and for how long. Everything involve decision for a specialist. A consultant concludes what he believes should do and how he maintains that should make it happen. Basically, you work for yourself!

This is NOT Bruce Springsteen
Introduction That is of course not true, this is a Bruce Springsteen playlist and we know how many great songs he has written but these are performances of songs that he has NOT written and was prompted by me accidentally coming across his live cover of Frank Wilson’s “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)” which, in my opinion, outdoes the original, and that is one of my favourite records ever. It appears on his soul covers album “Only The Strong Survive” released this year, and though my playlist opens with that song I thought it would be good to dig up some of his other covers for you to enjoy.

Polymath Actor, Recording Artist, and Filmmaker Amir Royale Releases His ‘Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented’ EP
From Amir Royale Sophomore year, NYU Tisch’s Clive Davis Institute, 2017. I created the concept of Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented as a "Writing the Hit Song: Deep Cutz" homework assignment. Over the course of 14 weeks, I crafted and reworked about 12 or so ideas. Suddenly, my songwriting professor at the time (Eren Cannata of Cove City Sound Studios, Facethouse Records & Warner Chapel Music), directed us to use all the content we created thus far to formulate an EP. This project would then become one we’d pitch and present to potential A&R scouts. It was our final project. I curated 5 of my best records across the class to showcase a conceptual narrative and description of greed, lust, and youth insecurity within American culture. It is the final entry within my four-EP-long music chronicle (dating back to my 2015 EP, This Is for You.). To let this project go free finally—feels like a blessing. Thank you.
