In the dawn of Y2K pop, while we got all the goodness of the Britneys and Christinas, we also started to see the rise of the pop girl who was a little edgier and a little funkier. The ones that didn’t necessarily fit in a box, but provided the bops nonetheless. Low and Behold the emergence of Canadian queen Miss Nelly Furtado with her debut album “Whoa Nelly”. The album flew like a bird into our lives in the Fall of 2000, and 23 years later, the rest is history. Now, turn off the lights, lay back and get ready to dive into the world of Nelly Furtado with her debut album… ‘Whoa, Nelly!’

Janet Jackson - Damita Jo Jun 22, 2023

Fresh off the success of her multi-platinum Grammy-winning 2001 release “All For You”, Janet Jackson had been consistently putting out hit records for well over 18-years, so when it was announced in early 2004 that Miss Jackson was to return with a new album (then, her sixth) as well as a spot headlining the SuperBowl halftime show, the streets were buzzing. Nobody could have predicted the series of events that would follow, resulting in the end of Janet’s commercial success as we knew it. But at the centre of all the drama was the album “Damita Jo”, an album that unfortunately due to the circumstances in Jackson’s public persona at the time, was widely ignored and underrated. Today, we take a look at the album “Damita Jo”, the music videos, the era. Because while Janet was blacklisted from TV and Radio, she STILL gave us everything you would expect from a Janet era. So sit back, and maybe hold onto your top tighter than usual (after all, we wouldn’t want any wardrobe malfunctions), and let’s dive into DAMITA JO.

Whitney Houston - I Look To You Feb 14, 2023

Show notes

When you hear the title “The Voice” there really is only one name that comes (or that should come to mind). Whitney Elizabeth Houston. By the late-‘00s, Whitney’s music career had all but fizzled as her personal life and struggles became more prevalent than her professional career.
But in 2009, Whitney changed that and came back with her first album in 7 years. “I Look To You” is a complicated era, as while it was the first time Whitney was back to recording in years, it was painfully obvious that things were not like how they once were (at least in terms of vocal ability and performance stamina). But on the other hand, the album itself was actually great, and she sounded better than she had in years.
This album also is significant for being Houston’s final album before her tragic death in 2012. So tonight, let’s take a look back into the era that was deemed as Houston’s “comeback”… “I Look To You”.

Jennifer Lopez - This Is Me... Then (20th Anniversary Special) Dec 06, 2022

Show notes

Send a text

In late 2002, we were in the middle of a media circus caused by none other than Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, “Bennifer” if you will. But, it wasn’t just the fact that they were together that fueled this circus. Jennifer also released an album, an album that not only was chockfull of love songs dedicated to Ben, but an album that has since been considered to be her magnum opus. Today, we celebrate the 20th anniversary of my personal favorite JLO album “This Is Me.. Then”. So sit back, relax, put on your Yankees cap and take a trip to Bronx with Jenny From The Block.
