Well, after a delay and a change in record labels, we finally get a taste of what to expect from Alexz Johnson's solo disc. I'd say my favorites are swallowed and golden both musically and vocally. Lyrically, I can't tell until I see some official lyrics posted somewhere. Check out the link and see for yourself. The songs are very unique, yet have an interesting 80's sound to em. Not surprising, since Alexz has said Peter Gabriel is one of her influences.

Looks like Kanye West got himself into some trouble with a festival crowd. Granted it wasn't entirely his fault, but still... stuff like this is why they say less is more. Look into it, man.

Amy Winehouse could also benefit from getting a clue. It seems she collapsed in her home and had to be rushed to the hospital. Something tells me that there are less than innocent reasons for the fainting spell. Can someone get her some help already? Enough is enough.

Finally, even though Madonna is jumping ship to Live Nation after her greatest hits release, some people are sticking to more conventional means of getting their music out there. At least for now. Despite all the reports, the Rolling Stones deny they're getting ready to join with the company, ending a 30 year relationship with their label. We'll see how that goes.

That's it for now. See y'all next time!

Apparently, Amy Winehouse has decided she's not going to be doing a Bond theme after all. Figures... I thought as much with all the drama going on. By the way... is it just me, or is there something just a little creepy about her producer? There are times when he seems a bit too involved and too desperate to put the fact she's recording out there. Hopefully, her family and close friends are keeping an eye on her right now to help her recover.

And Kanye has officially entered into "shut up" territory for me. I have much sympathy for the guy over the loss of his mother and that song with Stacy Dash in the video is great, but really.... saying "don't Michael Jackson" me? His explanation almost made it seem like he sympathizes with Michael and that is not cool in my book. I don't care if that guy did Thriller back in the 80's, he really is odd. Not to mention a cheat, since he's never paid anyone back without a court forcing it. So, Kanye... bad comparison. People aren't trying to make everything he does seem weird because of who he is. They do it because well... he really does do weird stuff all the time. All those times you talked like you were the second coming and throwing hissy fits after not winning something are probably not helping your case. Just something to think about....
