Voltiac will contain everything Volta didn’t. It’s another one of those milking-it releases that Bjork is known for dropping. I mean, how many times can you re-package something? Let’s hope it has all the good songs that Volta didn’t have.
Woman goes crazy after missing her flight
3This is a bit unsettling, I wonder what caused such a reaction. Did she miss something important? It’s saddening. Of course, she could also be an over-reacting diva. But, who knows?
Fingers crossed for the US…
“Spreading the wealth around” never sounded so good. Hopes are high that this economic stimulus package will work, and the republicans are just excited about the prospect that it might fail, as if the problem was Obama’s fault and not Bush’s. Some will take it back to the days of Clinton, just to clear themselves. That’s what happens when it’s you operate on a free market basis, it’s free to soar and it’s free to delve. Fingers-crossed for the economy to save the people from being laid off, if for any reason. That’s why Joe The Plumber was all up against its – he’s not a plumber.

Janet Jackson already working on next album
3Ain’t no stopping her. She wants to make it. Three flops won’t stop her. She’s back with what made her Ms. Jackson and the results may vary, but they are always welcome.
Venezuela becomes a full-fledged dictatorship

Hugo Chavez has just won a referendum that would allow him to be President of Venezuela until he dies, or gets bored. He no longer gets to step down in 2012 and this is only one of the measures that he wants accomplished to cement his presence in the region. How could such things pass under the watchful eye for the world, I don’t know.

4Jewel to release “lullaby” album, further alienating her fanbase
3
What is going on with Jewel? She’s not thinking right. Ever since the debut of her debut album, Pieces Of You, and her second, Spirit, she has been taking each and every turn to alienate her original fans. First, it was her third album, This Way, which suffered from too much twang and bad single choices.
Then, she went into her sudden electronic phase with O3O4, which was very badly-received especially by her demographic. Then, as if the hiatus between each album wasn’t enough, Jewel delivers a measly set of songs on Goodbye Alice In Wonderland which sounded like left-over tracks from This Way.

1Something Else is clearly an effort to reckon with. The album continues to impress. This was the first song to catch my hear. These days I am stuck on “Ms. Harmony.” Just plain sexy.
Limbaugh’s website sells “Club Gitmo” T-shirts
Leave it to the conservatives to make profit and find humor out of human rights abuses and torture. Rush Limbaugh’s website now sells these T-shirts that boasts “Club Gitmo: When America Was Safe” on them with a graphic that depicts “water” and “board.” How low can they stoop? Only Rush Limbaugh and his fans would find such atrocities funny. How would America be safer by the torture of people in a prison in another country? What fascists! These lofty conservative Republicans have been sitting still in their little suburban domains for too long, they need to take a trip, catch a glimpse of the world.
Introducing… Shontelle
Shontelle has been around for a couple of weeks now with her album Shontelligence (No, you are eyes are not fooling you), but i was intrigued to check her out when she reached the top 10 in the UK charts because if an R&B song hits high in the UK, it must be good. The song “T-Shirt” is what she is famous for, this one is a lesser-known single, by the name of “Battle Cry.” Check this Bajan singer out.
Green Day album slated for May
Five years since the phenomenal success of American Idiot, Green Day are set to release their comeback album 21st Century Breakdown sometime in May. Ever since Dookie the punk rockers have always to manage to serve at least one great song from each album. It is “When I Come Around” on Dookie, “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)” on Nimrod, “Minority” on Warning and “American Idiot” on American Idiot. So, this one must hold at least one diamond in the rough, especially since now they are Grammy favorites.

Amy Winehouse in hospital, again
Amy Winehouse has been admitted to the hospital for the 862nd time, this time in the Caribbean where she is vacationing for deacded in St. Lucia. Officials say the drugs she needs to get her off of other drugs ran out. Really? Was it the best choice for her record company to give her the money to do her album in Jamaica, out of all places? What kind of record did they expect if Stronger was ever to see the light of day? Is “Puppy Love” going to be on it?
