This reminds me, I listened to Cola Song recently and I GOT MY LIFE.
#RomanianQueenofPop #AlexandraStan4Princess
Song isnt bad but it aint a grower. As I said earlier its no Cherry Pop or Mr. Saxobeat. (Let me not forget Lemonade)
EDIT: I use the dancer dude.

so Katy reacted to the fact that "Roar" got snubbed at the VMAs...
some people think it's a shade to Gaga but I really don't see how that tweet can be related to her
All this shade for a useless ass award. Shame. I guess Grammy-less candidates really seek for the bottom of the barrel.
Wait inna did release a new song
http://youtu.be/5qY1a0N2-Yg?list=UUr8RbU-D7iSvpy0ZO-AasoQ
I don't like it that much upon first listen

I have yet to listen to her :O
Alexandra Stan Generic Bops
Mr Saxobeat
Get Back (ASAP)
Lemonade
Cliche (Hush Hush)
1.000.000
Baby It's Ok
All My People
Cherry Pop
That song is unfortunate...

She already did a week or two ago, but I don't see it becoming a hit.
As for Alexandra's song, although it's kind of pleasant to listen to, it's also utterly forgettable. Like Nito said, it's no Lemonade.
Love it. That accordion sound was so unexpected, it still sounds fresh to this day!
I concur
Not only that, but there's also synth in the background that sounds like it was taken from an Ace of Base song. It was probably deliberate, and I love that tiny detail

Sometimes I forget that some people's faves don't even have a single Grammy, as worthless as they are.

Speaking of Grammys, seven-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift has been subject to a Billboard article detailing her fashion evolution in sixty-seven glorious photographs.
I am sure that there will be many more photogenic, iconic appearances to follow in the fifth chapter of her musical career. Long may she reign.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
that's exactly it. And exactly why I was so annoyed with R̶o̶g̶e̶r̶ ̶K̶l̶o̶t̶z̶ Macklemore and his "I wish my Grammy would have gone to Kendrick Lamar" bullshit. Like shut up, no you DIDN'T wish that, now your paygrade has gone up. You just know he was Anne Hathaway'ing behind closed doors for that award.
Then again, the public did end up turning on him when he did that disastrously offensive Jewish caricature performance and has been hiding low ever since. Last I heard from him he's posing with his new kitten in order to gain back public sympathy, give me a damn break!
Ok.... the cat is adorable though

Her evolution from basic to rich basic is truly inspiring.

Haha you're right. You know what? I feel like Ace of Base had a great influence on many pop songs released nowadays. They had so pretty banging songs back then.

And what's more, to a picture from the Loud era! I stand by my words : it's my fav album from Rih. I've been listening to "Fading" a lot these last few days.
Eh. LOUD is her best era, just nowhere near her best album IMO.

Rated R is still my fave. I hope she tops it one day.
I've been obsessed with Complicated for a while now.
I love how sparse it is until after the first verse when the beat fully kicks in. And that chorus. Sing it, bitch.

so as Rih's #1 fan...what would you suggest to someone who *cautiously* wants to give her music a real chance? I say cautious because I've tried some of Popgaf's faves like Beyonce's last album which I thought was trash, but then I also discovered new faves from you guys like Lana Del Rey and Norwegian Queen Annie <3
I've really enjoyed Rih's soccer antics and twitter trolling over the last few weeks so it may be time to give her another shot.... they should be paying you to promote her Mau tbh
Since we were talking about Avril Lavigne yesterday, I wonder who had the idea of sampling I'm With You on Cheers (Drink To That)
At first those "yeah-yeah" threw me off a bit, but then I got used to it, and now I loved them.
Well it's just my fav. I know it's not her deepest or strongest work of art, but as far as shameless and catchy pop goes, it's a damn good album. Plus I love the videos for this era and of course her hair. That's what makes it my personal fav.
But you're right in that I think Rated R or Good Girl Gone Bad must be considered as her absolute best.
It's a nice one too, it's a shame she never ever performed it live

If you didn't like Bey's album you should try Me. I am Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse. The songs flow better together and the production is top notch. It's basically bop after bop after hip-hop bop without the drowsiness side effects that Lana and Annie will give you. The music itself comes from the soul since it's all written by Mariah herself unlike some of her lesser contemporaries where the songs just don't connect with the artist and sound forced and reaching. The album is very easy breezy, the perfect album to listen to on the go that will keep you in a positive mood while doing other activities. You Don't Know What To Do and #Beautiful are classic Mariah as she swoons and soars and coos and giggles her way through her 5 octave range that will leave anyone with an ear for music breathless. And Meteorite is just top notch perfect music if you're looking for something with a fun energy to get up and groove to. The ballads on the album will make you think, might even make you cry, but in a good way. Heavenly (No Ways Tired / Can't Give Up Now) will take you to church, the perfect song to blast when you're feeling down or need some extra encouragement to get shit done. So get into Me. I Am Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse. And thank me later.

Most Rihanna albums are have a decent number of pop gems but also suffer from plenty of filler. Rated R and Unapologetic are her most cohesive pieces of work (especially the latter), they also happen to be her most personal. Meanwhile albums like LOUD and Talk That Talk are less cohesive and their main focus is the singles (that IMO are really good for the most part).
If you wanna get into her music my rihcommendation would be to just listen to the singles from each album I can send you a playlist if you'd like!). If you don't like them, you probably won't like her albums at all lol.

Haha as Mariah's #1 fan I may get into your suggestion!
Honestly, I remember when I was a kid and Mariah's 1st single released "Sweet Fantasy", I really loved it (used to watch top 30 videos every weekend on MuchMusic here in Canada and some busted DJ on cartoon channel YTV at the time) it's still such a classic despite the video being a true relic of it's time!

Not sure why I haven't heard any of her music over the past years, maybe I've found her public persona a bit off-putting? I will give MIAMTEC a try though!

from what I've seen, everybody* seems to have at least one Rihanna song that they enjoy, no matter if they like her or not, no matter if they'll openly admit or just lie about it. It's just like with Britney.
*and I mean that, with Diamonds and Stay she sure won the last couple of skeptical people that despised her output

Cara Delevingne paying hommage to one of J-Lo's best last singles before... before whatever she sings now
I bought her first album back in 2007. Loved it, still listen to it every once in a while. What she did after that... well... meh.

are you insinuating that grammys aren't useless
They aren't though. Unless it's useless to you know, people who stan Grammy-less favs.
Edit: I mean, I'm not really trying to drag Katy but throwing shade for a VMA instead of a Grammy in which one is worth more than the other, it's a waste.
Ironic coming from a Gaga stan but I'll let this one slide. I liked ArtPop so there's that.
