Month: July 2015

With highs in the 100s and lows in the 80s, this summer in Houston has felt like nothing short of a trip to hell. If that wasn’t enough, Drake mercilessly keeps sending in heat waves from Toronto- dropping a total of five new songs, four of them in this week alone.

How well do you remember 2011? It was the year the Internet was introduced to Lil Debbie.

In no particular order, of course, these movie soundtracks include not only timeless classics but also modern treasures with some of the best works from the most talented musicians of our era. Below are my top six favorites:

Because why not? Oftentimes not appreciated nor considered glamorous/legendary by many, early 2000’s Rock hasn’t exactly received a great rep in music history. In the last decade of this time period, rock music had little to no presence on the charts. The 90’s simply left big shoes to fill and many people we’re convinced that […]

If you haven’t heard “Communion,” the debut album by Years and Years … please remove yourself from under the rock you have been inhabiting and get on it!

Death Grips made their way down to Houston for their tour supporting their latest album The Powers that B. If you hadn’t heard, the show sold out in just a couple of days. Death Grips went through a time last year where they didn’t show up to their scheduled gigs; they weren’t even in the […]

Jordan Asher, better known as his stage name Boots, has released details about his upcoming debut album following his latest EP, Motorcycle Jesus. 

This group has elements of Outkast’s fun and outgoing music, and projects Odd Future-esque “we don’t give a crap” attitudes and activities, yet they have only 38.6K followers on Twitter? That has got to be a complete joke when the group is co-signed by and collaborating with acclaimed producer Pharrell. OverDoz. is a up and […]

Houston natives, rejoice! Our music scene is no Austin, that’s certain, but there’s light in the horizon. From right around the block, Second Lovers is releasing new music that you should check out! Their indie rock sound might remind you of The Mowglis or Fleetwood Mac, though you won’t get them confused because they have […]

2015 is already halfway over, believe it or not, and this year I’ve already seen a whole host of movies, both blockbuster and independent. Every Monday I review a film I’ve seen on my show Cinema Forte, and this is my list of the top 5 movies to check out this year if you haven’t […]

If you could pick any interval of your life to present yourself to the masses, which would you pick? In his new studio album, “Summertime ’06,” Vince Staples picks an essential period in which he describes as, “the beginning of the end of everything [he] thought [he] knew.” At a whopping 20 tracks, “Summertime ’06” gives insight into […]

I know what you’re thinking. How in the world did she manage to listen to anything else but Tori Kelly these last few weeks? Well, I’m not saying it was easy, but I succeeded and I live to tell about it. Let’s talk about some of my June favorites!

Three years after releasing his debut album Dreams and Nightmares, Philly-native rapper Meek Mill comes back to the rap game with something bigger and better.
