The 2000s were a unique time in not only the music world but the world as a whole. Rap was coming into the mainstream for the first time, and the remnants from the booming grunge era of rock were still trying to find their footing. While certain bands were panned for copycatting that era, there […]

While the music industry has its fair share of megastars, sometimes people go under the radar. Not everyone is as showy as Elvis, as rowdy As David Lee Roth, or as tragic as Kurt Cobain. Occasionally, there is just a shining talent with a penchant for writing great music. In my opinion, that’s exactly what

Groundbreaking is one of the hardest things to do in the music world.
