The 20 Greatest TV Show Theme Songs of All Time
I miss the times when TV show theme songs were big. Back when the opening credits was about laying the groundwork, giving you some context or just telling you the background story. We spent the first 1.5 minutes of each show just jamming, singing along and getting ready for our …

Shade, Snubbery and Sam Smith Slayage: My 2015 GRAMMY Awards Recap
What can be said about the GRAMMY Awards that can’t be said about any other out of touch award show? It was long, it was hella white and it snubbed Black and brown people. It’s their tradition and it is mine to complain about it. Consider this that complaint. But …
Brandy, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte and Yo-Yo Performing “I Wanna Be Down” Was Everything!
I did not watch the BET Hip Hop Awards last night because I forgot and nobody reminds me of anything anymore (*side-eyes everyone*). Plus I had work to do. I’m catching up with some of what I missed (amen, YouTube) and I got my entire LIFE with the performance that …
Aretha Franklin Performed on David Letterman and Cissy Houston Can’t Be Bothered
Last night, Aretha Franklin went on the David Letterman show to perform her cover of Adele’s Rolling in the Deep. When the recording dropped, many said she breathed new life into the song but that autotune was not what life was about. I couldn’t even finish it. But her singing …
Kanye West Calls Out Fan in Wheelchair For Not Standing Up at Concert. Ugh.
Kanye West is a giant douchecanoe. So many antics, so little accountability and people got so many excuses for him (he’s a genius. He’s misunderstood. He lost his mother). The latest in a long list of “WTF, Kanye?” is what happened at a concert he had on Friday in Sydney, …

Robin Thicke’s Album “Paula” Flops and Goes Toothpick in the UK and Paper Towel in the US
Robin Thicke released his newest album Paula last week and this week, we find out that it only sold 530 copies in the UK. That album went toothpick. Or tinfoil. And in the US, it sold 25,000 copies. At least it went a bit better, going paper towel. I haven’t …
Michelle Williams Covers an African Gospel Song with “Say Yes” and I’m Jamming!
Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child fame and PoorMichelle.com shade came out with a new song yesterday. It’s featuring Beyonce and Kelly Rowland but I don’t think they’re necessary. She needed their name for the boost, doe. I listened to it and it was familiar as hell. It’s because it’s a …
