Mariah Carey’s ‘GTFO’ should have been a Grammy-winning #1 hit.

The music industry is dominated by powerful women, whether that be the record-breaking albums coming from acts like Taylor Swift or glass-ceiling-shattering boardroom executives. Of course, the music industry was not always so welcoming to women recording artists. In the early 20th century, many women were barred from performing in certain venues. Others faced discrimination

Gwen Stefani’s somber ‘Early Winter’ should have been a much bigger hit. Gwen Stefani promised that her fifth solo album is “coming soon,” but here’s something to occupy fans while we wait for a firm release date.

Notes on this week’s new releases: OMG What’s Happening is, whichever way you look at it, the quint­es­sen­tial 2020 song title. Is Ava Max, who currently stands at 33.5m monthly Spotify listeners, making her the world’s 47th biggest act, the quint­es­sen­tial 2020 popstar? That’s another con­ver­sa­tion for another day. Let’s not do it now. Daniel

Bow Wow has responded to backlash he received after he held an indoor concert during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ava Max has two con­cur­rent haircuts, several A+ pop belters and, as of today (September 18 2020) precisely one (1) highly listen­able album. She spoke with Popjustice recently in an interview that included an unex­pec­ted reference to char­cu­terie boards and therefore counts as ‘wide-ranging’. Here’s what she has to say for herself… Ava Max, hello

Notes on this week’s new releases: Seriously though the EHLE single is very brilliant. “I’ll stop wearing black when they invent a darker colour” — A LYRIC. There’s something slightly Aloudian about the unhin­ged­ness of Finders Keepers, EHLE’s fourth (fourth!!) excellent single of 2020. Gorgon City have released their best single in about a hundred

Jennifer Lopez gave an unforgettable performance at the inauguration of President Joe Biden on Wednesday (January 20).
