You can feel the heat again this season, but for most music aficionados, it's time for summer concerts. Let loose, be free, rock on and carpe diem!Even though most would love to go see their favorite artist or attend highly anticipated music festivals, it seems ticket prices this year aren't selling out. Reading Rolling Stones magazine, it seems this year a lot of musicians and artists are having

Hello all! I've missed you blog world!Work and everything in between have made me so tired throughout my day, so tired to even write a couple sentences here or even worse check my e-mails every day. Well I have definitely become a work-a-holic now. Oh and a small rant on the side, it's been a few months since I've actually been out to a lounge or club. I recently went to the Power Plant Live in

Wow, it feels like decades (well, okay, some months) since I've heard any new music or blogged about any music, but work has consumed my life entirely now. Even though it's still no excuse. So, even though I find it difficult to find and listen to new music, it hasn't stopped me my habit of buying new CDs, i.e. Jay Sean's All or Nothing.I recently got a chance to dust my netbook (my lovely HP

MTV VMA's just finished around an hour ago, and I must say I'm glad they broadcasted it in NYC at Radio City Hall.So I have been MIA from the whole blog world, but I'm back per se. Let me give you my highlights of tonight's show before I head to sleep (I have to be awake and not look dead-tired at work, you know.)Madonna gave a great speech regarding her memory of Michael Jackson to start off the

I recently discovered hot British Indian singer, Jay Sean. All my South Asians, have you already heard of him?? He did sign on to Cash Money Records earlier this year, maybe that's why I heard his song, "Down," on the radio.Well, "Down" has definitely kept its place on my summer playlist this year. "Down" definitely epitomizes the songs I listen to during my summer days in Florida, besides the

Tonight America's Got Talent (AGT) and So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) called out my name. If you don't know, one of my guilty pleasures is watching reality TV shows. So I have noticed it's been quite awhile since I've watched any, but maybe when you need to find financial stability again, you don't miss it.Well, I'm glad I didn't miss tonight's AGT, even if I was jumping between AGT and

It's already mid-July, and so much is happening around the DC metro area. I guess it's a given, when some parts of the year, it's blistering cold. Now this week, if you haven't heard the buzz from students, thespians, or hip hop enthusiasts, the Hip Hop Theater Festival (HHTF) is in town.HHTF (founded in 2000) creates a more active presence of hip hop and theater. HHTF creates the awareness that

So for all those who love the free, the anticipated Virgin Festival is free this year. Virgin Mobile Festival will be held at the Merriweather Post Pavilion (Columbia, MD) on Sunday, August 30, 2009. It's just 1-day instead of 2 days, but you can still enjoy the best music with your friends. Some perfomers Blink-182, Weezer, Public Enemy, Franz Ferdinand, ....Free tickets are available to the

I know I'm pretty late with the news, but I guess this is what happens when you're out of the house and your phone just doesn't work. I already heard during the first intermission from JenBabe, but as I got out of seeing the Royal Ballet perform Manon, KD informed me the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, had just died earlier. =o How crazy is that, especially since before that it was announced

Sunday morning, I had so much anticipation, only because I knew I was going to attend the No Doubt concert! Eeeek! Haha. So it's some days now, and I finally have time to post pictures and update you.If you were ever a No Doubt fan, this concert did not disappoint. Their opening acts in Virginia were The Sounds and Paramore. Didnt' get a chance to see The Sounds because my friends and I were

We all know awhile ago, Lady Gaga canceled her SOLD OUT 9:30 performance due to an American Idol performance the night before (so lame, but I still contest to my other theory). Well she has rescheduled her performance in DC, but this time it'll be at the DAR Constitution Hall. It will hold more people and tickets will be just a bit more. So if you missed out the chance to buy a ticket, you have a

According to a close friend, Ms. Jennifer Hudson is pregnant with her fiance, David Otunga. One of Hudson's close friend admitted attending a recent baby shower. Friend mentioned guests came bearing gifts in yellow. The guests didn't know the sex of the baby, since Hudson and Otunga wanted it to be a surprise. Even if the engaged couple doesn't want to know, I'm sure the public is wondering the

I've always been a big fan of Wong Fu Productions, including their early work. I admire the creativity, especially the funny "Yellow Fever" and "music videos." It's just a shame I graduated too early from UF not getting a chance to hear them speak. On to the point, I recently got a chance to check out a music video they officially produced and directed for David Choi's "Won't Even Start."David

Recently, I've been getting back into the habit listening to music on my Pandora account, and one song I have truly been amazed with is "Fly" by J. Holiday. The song has great lyrics and a beat that involves the slow smooth R&B and boy-pop band combo. Which is a great whammy!Now to the lyrics, even though I have never been in the seat of true love, I feel like for those who truly are in love,

Now we've all come across songs that we love and hate. And that's probably because we love the beats, but hate the underlying themes and lyrics. Yes, most music out there today probably has no substance, and that's what the popular has come to accept and love. So when I come across an artist with a great story nowadays I appreciate that rawness, but I do digress.Many times, I'm guilty loving

I remember first hearing Day n' Nite earlier this year when I visited home back in Tampa, and I thought it would take another couple months (or maybe longer) before I heard Kid Cudi's song in DC. Boy was I wrong. Over the weekend, I hung out with my buddies at Lucky Bar and in the middle of all the old school (80s pop and hip-hop), top pop, dirty south, and new rap, and then I hear, "it's day n'
