Music Trish at the Opry? The Grand Ole Opry’s 100th anniversary was celebrated yesterday in Nashville, which I bring up mainly because I saw photos of Reba McEntire and said Trish! out loud.

Music Justin Timberlake is still on tour The title was news to me and I’m wondering if it’s news to you.

Music MC’s MUSIC LOUNGE: Back to Basics For a while it seemed like the focus behind the making of a lot of mainstream music was simply achieving astronomical streaming numbers versus actually creating something of substance. Maybe the perfect place to live in 2025 is a happy medium between a streaming hit and still a piece of By MC • Mar 18, 2025 01:29 pm
Quiveration iHeartRadio Music Awards: Honouring the Divas + Benito Last night’s iHeartRadio Music Awards was a celebration of the biggest hits on the radio in the last year, but it really was just an excuse to watch some of music’s biggest stars all together, from Lady Gaga and Mariah Carey to Billie Eilish and Bad Bunny.

Music MC’s MUSIC LOUNGE: The Magic of Gaga It’s been a long road filled with soundtracks and poorly-received films, but alas, Mother Monster is back and with a f-cking vengeance.

Music MC’s MUSIC LOUNGE: Pop Goes International One of the greatest things to come out of the streaming era is our access to music from all over the world.

Music MC’s MUSIC LOUNGE: The Britney Agenda I feel like I’ve been living in a fever dream of different variations of Britney Spears when it comes to today’s pop girlies.
