Elli Ingram: “Poetic Justice” (Kendrick Lamar Cover)
I’m fighting so hard to not compare Elli Ingram to fellow Brit-pop-soul singer Adele. I mean, it always drives me crazy when judges on reality TV shows like The Voice or American Idol look at a girl who isn’t a size zero and spurt out, […]
Beyoncé Was Great At The Super Bowl & You Can Eat A Hot Cup of Smegma If You Think Otherwise
“Beyoncé Silences Doubters With Intensity at Halftime” may sound like a tweet from a devoted follower of The Church of Destiny’s Child, but it’s an actual headline on The New York Times website right now. Look, you can throw your shade all you want: “Madonna […]
Ra Ra Riot: “Beta Love”
The music video for Ra Ra Riot‘s “Beta Love” takes a Flashback Friday approach, utilizing actual footage from a local 1980s Bay Area television program called Dance Party. It’s peculiar how well it works with the energetic dance-pop track, and it’s even more peculiar that […]
Syron: “Here”
Combine the haircut of Robyn with the sound of Katy B, and you’ve (almost) got the perfect equation for up-and-coming London singer Syron. Her new single “Here” continues to grow on us with each subsequent listen, to the point that I found myself humming the […]
Sharon Needles: “This Club Is A Haunted House”
Yikes! Does anyone else already miss the fourth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race? After last night’s premiere, I was feeling disappointed that there weren’t any “slap you in the face with their awesomeness” standouts like Latrice Royale or Sharon Needles. I developed slight aesthetic connections […]
Swear and Shake: “These White Walls”
Kari Spieler, the lead female vocalist of New York’s Swear and Shake, reminds me a ton of Rilo Kiley‘s Jenny Lewis. That last sentence might mean nothing to 90% of you reading this, but then again, you probably didn’t spend a week of your college […]
Nick Pes: “I Remember”
As those of you who actually pay attention to our music posts know, I’m rather predictable in my love for sparkly electro-pop with a lot of feelings. Nick Pes delivers hard in that department with his debut single “I Remember”, a guitar-laced and thoroughly ’80s-esque track about summer […]
Kelly Rowland: “Kisses Down Low”
Fresh off the not-quite-at-all-but-sort-of-almost reunion of Destiny’s Child, the brave soul known as Kelly Rowland ventured out on a quest to raise awareness about oral sex. The sultry singer’s new single “Kisses Down Low” is the best thing to happen to cunnylingus since Khia‘s “My Neck, […]
I.K.P.: “Sam Cooke’s Chain Gang”
As much as I adore out hip-hop that’s about dicks all over the place, I’ve always longed for a gay rapper who can simultaneously make me dance and think. Unfortunately, these aren’t the people getting attention on Towleroad, Queerty or other similar blogs. They’re too […]
