OK, this is bubblegum pop. The sort you chew on and it loses its flavor fifteen minutes later. But it’s damn catchy, isn’t it? Or maybe you consider your tastes too refined to enjoy a slice of bubblegum? That’s fine. It’s not for everyone. Personally, I prefer chocolate. (Who doesn’t?) But for the next fifteen…

Back in 2012 I came across a song called “Karma Debt” by The Mynabirds and instantly fell in love with it. The sound of Laura Burhenn’s vocals alone was bewitching, equal parts velvety smooth and soulful, but her thought-provoking lyrics about war and debt were what really made my brain light up like a Christmas…

No, it’s not a U2 cover… It’s another gorgeous MIKA original, which means a soaring vocal melody, vibrant beat and super colorful instrumentation all strung together by his always charismatic voice. Let’s face it — he could sing the Sesame Street theme song and we’d listen to it. He’s one of the brightest stars in…

It was from an album called Left of the Middle, one of the year’s highest selling releases. The record also spawned other hits, such as “Wishing I Was There”…

Recreational Love is The Bird And The Bee’s first album in five years, following 2010’s excellent covers album Interpreting The Master’s Volume 1: A Tribute To Daryl Hall and John Oates. During recent years, I’d started to become convinced that they would never do another album, largely because Greg Kurstin has become one of the…

As you’ve probably heard, Meek Mill recently accused Drake of having ghostwriters write his songs. Drake retaliated over the weekend with “Charged Up.” It was a simple track and not as good as Drake’s usual output, but he made his point. Following that, Meek Mill was supposed to drop a Drake diss track on Funkmaster…

It’s about as bubblegum pop as they come, but it’s not a horrible guilty pleasure.

It’s Of Monsters and Men, so of course it’s amazing.
