Hey Music! Thanks for the therapy!
This post is not going to be very scientific, but I will link some basic info and articles below if that’s what you are looking for. My ‘survival guide’ to dealing with this COVID-19 pandemic will be more-so for my music/creatives. It’s like we’re living in a Sci-Fi movie/ video game right now, am I…
*Picture courtesy of www.pitchfork.com* I still don’t have as many articles about women in music on this blog and it’s something that I am doing my best to change. Even though there really are so many women in the industry in all genres, with fans riding for them, and they’re really doing their thing, they…
I don’t even remember how I got into Justin Park’s music, to be honest. I just know that after really listening to his album Places Like Home, I had to talk to you guys about him. This is another one of those situations where I wish I would’ve mentioned him sooner so he’s kind of…
I have written about mental health before, including stories of my own struggles as well as some of my favorite artists who suffer also. Revisiting this topic is always a pretty sensitive and taboo thing but it needs to be talked about. Many of us still have to deal with that lingering “seasonal depression”. But…
So many things in the news and on social media inspired this post. The first being the loss of Kobe Bryant and his baby girl Gianna aka Gigi yesterday (Sunday 1/26). The second being a post that Maurice Moore reposted on Twitter – called “Self Care When the News is Difficult”. The third inspiration was…
I realized that I have been listening to one particular artist/ group lately so I had to talk about it! Of course, it’s K-Pop, but a lot of other music seems to be in the middle of uncertainty and drama at the moment. In the last post that I did, I mentioned the group HIGHLIGHT…
Oh Kanye, Kanye, Kanye… It seems so hard to separate his personal life and drama from his music. But being a fan of his older music (College Dropout days) and being a music fan in general, I wanted to try to listen to this new album. I will try to keep my personal thoughts and…
I did not know Nipsey Hussle personally, but similar to losing Mac Miller, this one hit me HARD. Between the night that it all happened and was posted to today, life doesn’t feel the same. Black men getting gunned down like that is REAL LIFE and I am only more paranoid and terrified for the…
Happy Saturday! I realized that I haven’t just caught up with you guys in a good while. A lot has been happening, especially in the month of January and that’s why my posting has slowed more than I would like (even if it may not seem that way to you guys LOL). I still have…
Let me start by saying that I am still trying to figure out why I am just now writing about Mack Wilds. I’ve been a fan of his for years; seen the movies, tv shows, music videos, and heard the music. But I guess it’s like what happened with Michael B Jordan… We’re all in…
