Aural Only: Nicki Minaj
Say what you will about Nicki Minaj. Even folks who like hip-hop can’t universally agree on her place within the rap soundscape. Is she the fresh new voice who’s destined to put female rappers back on the map? Or is she just a blatantly uncreative […]

Album Review: Katie Melua
In 2006, Katie Melua was the United Kingdom’s bestselling female artist (Thanks Wikipedia!), and Europe’s highest-selling European female artist. So can someone please explain why she doesn’t get anywhere near as much exposure on this side of the pond? Sure, her cover of The Cure‘s […]
