Screw everything on American radio stations right now. The best new song came out overseas back in June, delivered to our ears by Nigerian-born goddess Temi Dollface. Her refreshing single “Pata Pata” makes up for a lackluster summer of pop music, in which a tragically […]

Janelle Monae is More Interesting than Miss Beyonce.
Here’s Janelle Monae‘s new single “Dance Apocalyptic.” As you can see, it’s more of her high concept campy pop weirdness and, yet again, it’s far more palatable than any of the other professionally weird pop divas making things at the moment. The first time I […]
Janelle Monáe & Erykah Badu: “Q.U.E.E.N.”
This weekend, I invite you all to queen the fuck out. When the word “queen” is thrown around as an insult within the gay community, it can have as much of a negative impact as our hetero brethren calling us “fags”. There’s no right or […]
Weekly Top Ten: Katy Makes A Move
Well, it’s official–Lady Gaga is back on top. The “Alejandro” singer has flip-flopped with Kylie Minogue for yet another week, as they both struggle to claim the ultimate title of 2010’s Song of Summer. But neither of these ladies are safe with Katy Perry in […]

Exclusive Interview With Tyra Sanchez
If you don’t know by now who won this season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, we don’t feel bad about spoiling it for you. The competition’s biggest diva wound up taking the top prize, and Manhunt Daily was recently granted an opportunity to ask her a […]
Album Review: Janelle Monáe
The art of the concept album has been tainted by the “Sasha Fierce” phenomenon. Nowadays, it’s enough to make up an alter-ego, throw together songs in a hasty fashion and call yourself an artist. These are the projects that get all the attention, while a […]
Album Review: B.o.B.
Bobby Ray Simmons is a man of many hats. The Atlanta-based artist–who goes by the oddly generic stage name B.o.B.–makes waves as a rapper, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and record producer. And as of this week, he can now add the title of “chart topper” to this ever-growing […]
