First Listen: “Blank Page” by Christina Aguilera

November 5, 2012 by Loft965.com

Christina Aguilera is getting ready to release her make-or-break album Lotus. Surely, the second single off of the album must be a ballad. Yes, “Blank Page” is a Sia-penned slow one that is set to pave the way for the album’s promotional campaign. However, as much as we love Sia, this is definitely not the track to catapult Christina Aguilera’s career back to its glory. In fact, its one of the worst ballads we had heard by Xtina. Let’s hope […]

Alex Roots stumbles before she can walk

July 13, 2009 by Loft965.com

We featured her a while ago in hopes that she will be the next big thing, except now that we see the album cover we digress. It’s worse than Sanjaya‘s. This is just atrociously horrid. The typeface, the dog, the pose, the fashions, the background. Everything!

May 28, 2009 by Loft965.com

John Legend has just twittered that he is working on an album slated for 2010 that is going to be called Wake Up Sessions. The effort is going to be a collaboration with, none other than, The Roots. They’re probably taking a break from their Jimmy Fallon show, which is a nightmare. I am sure it is going to sound fantastic.
