It’s hard to believe that it’s been five years since Kelly Clarkson won the title of the first American Idol. Since then Clarkson has seen multiple Grammy nominations and wins, two platinum albums, and world-wide success. It seemed obvious that her latest effort, My December…
Justin Timberlake has certainly got one hell of an ego. I guess it’s to be expected; after all, he spent most of his adolescence and early adult years being the idol of one of the world’s biggest boy bands. Still, his ladies man persona becomes…
It’s been eight years since Mandy Moore first appeared in the music scene. She debuted as just another young teen pop star; her first album amounted to nothing more than a dreadful collection of bubblegum pop, but still, I knew Moore had something about her…
Maroon 5 erupted into the music scene in 2002 with hit songs like This Love, Harder to Breathe, and She Will Be Loved. Despite the success of their debut disc, Songs About Jane, the band took a long (and seemingly indefinite) five year hiatus.

The name, Mika (pronounced “mee-ka”), may mean nothing to you, but I’m predicting now that he will be the next big thing. The 23-year-old singer is the UK’s latest import and his glam rock/pop sound is just the kind of upbeat music that everyone’s been…
