If you’re not familiar with Jill Scott‘s extensive and critically-acclaimed R&B catalogue, then there’s a chance you may know her from “that song Mercedes performed one time on Glee”. Sad but true! Either way, her latest single “Shame” has been making the rounds, and it’s […]

Aural Only: Sade
Calm down! We mean that in the most literal way possible, because there’s no way you can be stressed while listening to Sade‘s latest single “Still In Love With You”. The smooth groovin’ British songstress has offered up her own rendition of the 1974 Thin […]
Aural Only: John Legend
While the gay internet collectively explodes over Lady Gaga’s alternate Country Road version of “Born This Way”, we thought we’d call attention to a whole other reinvention of a huge pop hit. Remember that Adele character and her song “Rolling In The Deep”? The one […]
Aural Only: Usher
Hey, remember when Usher was a somewhat legitimate R&B singer who didn’t need to resort to busting out semi-anonymous dance tracks? Those days seem far behind us with the release of “More”, the latest (and presumably last) single from his Raymond Vs. Raymond era. If […]

In the past five years, Jennifer Hudson has won an Academy Award, fallen in love with a Harvard Law graduate, given birth to her first child, lost tons of weight and picked up a Grammy for her self-titled debut album. Um, what have you done […]
Weekly Top Ten: Big Victories For Adele & Aiden
English songstress Adele returns to the number one spot of our Weekly Top Ten countdown, after falling behind Pink and Katy Perry on last weekend‘s edition. Even more surprising, openly gay (and extremely sexy) singer-songwriter Aiden James has stormed into the top five with his […]
Aural Only: Marsha Ambrosius
Well, this is a step up from “Hope She Cheats On You (With A Basketball Player)”. Former Floetry member Marsha Ambrosius has dedicated her latest single “Far Away” to the fight against LGBT bullying and suicide. Not so surprisingly, her intentions seem much more sincere […]
Aural Only: Fantasia
Real men aren’t afraid to admit to their obsession with Fantasia Barrino. Okay, so that may not be entirely true, but it’s how I felt while watching her latest video for “I’m Doin’ Me”. This jam’s one of my favorite tracks from her third album […]
