Sivan Langer - The Three Monkeys Somg

Image
  Langer’s journey into the world of songwriting began when he decided to form a band with a couple of his schoolmates. He dove into a furious exploration of the guitar, immersing himself in the iconic sounds of 90s rock and grunge. Soon enough, his musical tastes grew to encompass jazz and experimental rock. It was a journey that led him to appreciate the conceptual ideas behind the music as much as their sonic manifestations.  As he continues down the winding path of a musician infatuated with his craft, the culmination of his musical journey is marked by this labor of love and determination, borne out of sheer will and appreciation for the arts. Langer’s fusion of genres, blending classic rock, punk, and even elements of jazz, bears witness to an artist unafraid to explore and transcend boundaries. Sivan’s fusion of genres, blending classic rock, punk, and even elements of jazz, bears witness to an artist unafraid to explore and transcend boundaries. With each note and chor...

THE OUTSIDER by MARYANN Exclusive Interview

Image
  So Maryann, where you're from and can you tell us a little bit about your upbringing? I am originally from New Jersey with roots in New York and Florida.  Having 3 brothers, I spent a lot of time climbing trees, crabapple fights, swimming in the pool, riding mini-bikes, mushroom hunting…basically I was outside enjoying nature a lot.  When inside I loved playing my Monkeys Album which my brother broke over my head.  I guess he got tired of hearing it…LOL.  As I got older, I loved singing all the Elvis songs as well as all the oldies.  I took ballet from the age of 3 up till I turned 12, which I didn’t appreciated until much later in life. We understand you have been doing music for a long time so what inspires you to make such a prosperous career? I don’t know so much about being prosperous, but it is a very rewarding career.  I’ve had a long desire to sing.  My formative years, my 20s, I had the fun of being in a band called Disaster Recovery. ...

Drowning Effect is #Flyah

Image
  At a time when we are wading through seas of information, Spadaro (Morning Spy, Foxtail Summersault, and Tracing Figures), Baker (Tracing Figures) and Loftin (Morning Spy, Imperial Highway, Astral and solo work) have come together to create a rocking beacon of sound that reminds us of our humanity, our emotions, and our connection to one another. Named after the widespread impact of content overload, the San Francisco-based group pulses with the angsty influences of 70s psych bands and 90s alt. rockers:  think Blue Cheer and The Stooges meet Jane’s Addiction and Filter . Since forming in 2021, Drowning Effect has released two albums, Drowning Effect (2019) and Techniculture (2021), both mixed by Gabriel Shepard (Cake, The Residents) at Oakland's 25th Street Recording and mastered by LA's Mike Wells (Jello Biafra, Green Day). Rising from the deep is a sound that’s cuts through the age of digital noise in Drowning Effect’s second album, Techniculture, released in 2021. Th...

R. Kelly - Minister Testifies?

Image
A surprise witness takes the stand during the R. Kelly trial and it's no one either than the ordained minister who was fiscally responsible for the secret marriage between Kelly and his then bride, the late and great Aaliyah. Nathan Edmond is the minister's name and he's 73 years old. The testimony took place on what would had been the 27th wedding anniversary; the charges against R. Kelly stem from claims of racketeering charges. Prosecutors allege a member of the entourage bribed a local official to create a fake ID. The marriage technically was not under consent as Aaliyah was 15 (too young to be married under legal law as it states a person must be 18 years or above to get married).  The marriage faced annulment after her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Haughton, found out about it. R. Kelly pleaded not guilty on racketeering. Edmond said "I didn't think it was anybody special I didn't understand it at all". The two were married inside of the hotel in Rosemont I...

J.Rice is bringing the heat with three tracks

Image
  J.Rice is bringing the heat with three tracks that have powerful flows and  just as powerful lyrics.  With influences like  Jay-Z  and J Cole  to choose from, it’s no wonder his music resonates with so many. We also get to enjoy the skills of featured artists this time around, making these songs a gold mine for new artists to look forward to. In the first song, Round It Up, Rice emphasised the desire to be successful. The beat makes it easy to get into the song and I appreciate that the featured artists have equal amounts of time. Speaking of which,  Psykasolar(?)  gives a tight rap that attacks the senses in quick succession, while  Majesty(?)  keeps it real with her simple but strong lyrics showing she can keep up with the boys. But Rice starts us off with a loose rap, grooving on the beat; bouncing with the rhythm.  Some of that simplicity is continued into the next song. No Brady also boasts a simple beat, that is easy to danc...

Jazmine Sullivan - Heat for Leaking IG Secrets?

Image
The Philadelphia based singer, Jazmine Sullivan has been recalled to not be scared of Lions Tigers and Bears. However, what she really should be afraid for is catching heat on Social Media for leaking secrets of fans and others using Instagram posts. Anonymously she has appeared on IG and shared secrets of fans with reactions. Brazen adultery shameless money scams and embarrassing secrets in a sexual nature are of three types of controversial topics/issues Jazmine has enveloped herself in. Dating back to 2020, Jazmine claimed her mother Pam was diagnosed with breast cancer and has spread awareness ever since but the eyes on Jazmine may had turn to evil ones as people's privacy may have been a severe high risk. Trustworthiness is called into question and maybe it's too late for any sympathetic or apologetic comments from the singer at this time. Self-reflection by one of her fans had since been echoed.
