JoBro Week Is Finally Here!

Posted on by

It’s hard to miss the Jonas Brothers comeback – Nick, Joe & Kevin have been everywhere, from the BBMAs to The Voice finale and even showed up on their own edition of Carpool Karaoke where James Corden subjected them to a lie detector test about their 2013 breakup.
All of that was just lead-up to this week; The JoBros are releasing their first studio album in a decade, Happiness Begins, and delivering a documentary to answer all those lingering fan questions about the breakup and how the brothers are doing now that they’ve made their triumphant return.
The guys sat down with CBS This Morning to kick off the week. When asked how they feel about getting a shot at a do-over, Joe responded “I think this time around we’re going to do it right. There’s not gonna be secrets between us, it’s not gonna be second guessing, we’re not gonna be sitting around trying to call it off. We’re going to just keep this thing going.”
The album drops this Friday! Ride or Die Jonas Brothers fans can catch their doc, Chasing Happiness, on Prime video starting tomorrow, June 4th. And if the wait is just too hard, hear all your favorite JoBro songs ranked by how much you love them on The Jonas Brothers: The Count Up on LiveXLive! 

Taylor Swift Stories

Posted on by

In celebration of Ms. Swift slaying the stage at Wango Tango, we‘ve created the ultimate radio experience loaded with her music, influences and the stories behind all of it. Here are five things we learned:

1. In high school, Taylor was infatuated with Britney Spears. She wore her perfumes and everything. Now? When Taylor performs in Brit’s home state of Louisiana, she usually busts out a cover or two.

2. In 2010, Taylor teamed up with Stevie Nicks for a pair of duets at the Grammy Awards, prompting Stevie to predict that female artists like Taylor were going to save the music business. How did she know? (She must be a witch).

3. When Taylor moved away from Country music and became a bona fide pop star, a lot of artists in Nashville gave her the cold shoulder. Not Florida Georgia Line, though. “Hell yeah,” said Brian Kelly said, “More props to Taylor. It doesn’t matter the genre, if you’re advancing as an artist, people are going to flock to that.”

4. Taylor says that her friendship with Selena Gomez is the longest she has ever had. They met when Taylor was 16 and Selena was 13.

5. The longstanding feud between Taylor and Katy Perry is officially over. And now? Rumors of a collaboration are swirling all over the place.

Cardi B's Last Hurrah...For Now

Posted on by

Cardi B hit the stage Sunday night for a show in her tri-state home area. She’s the rightful headliner of New York radio station Hot 97’s “Summer Jam," the equivalent of sitting on TV’s fabled Iron Throne.

Cardi, of course, couldn’t make “Summer Jam” last year because she was literally a month away from giving birth to her baby girl Kulture. While she’s rocked stages across the world, you know that Summer Jam has to be extra special. What 26-year-old NYC bred rapper hasn’t dreamed of headlining Summer Jam? Her husband Offset was also on the bill along with his group Migos, making it an extra special family affair.

This was likely the last time we’ll see Cardi onstage for a while, as her body is still healing from liposuction and breast lift surgeries. She spoke about suffering through physical complications from the procedures a couple of days ago in Instagram live, citing her plastic surgeon strongly advise she take a pause from concerts until she’s fully recuperated. “I hate canceling shows because I love money. I'm a money addicted,” she lamented. The last time Cardi performed was a couple of weeks ago at the Hangout Fest at Alabama’s Gulf Shores. Since then, a myriad of her schedule performance dates has either been cancelled altogether or postponed.

“I get paid a lot of money, a lot of money for these shows. A lot of money,” she continued to explain. “I'm canceling millions of dollars in shows, but health is wealth, so I have to do what I have to do."

At “Hangout Fest,” she teased new music coming out this summer and she just dropped a new single “Press.” The artwork is grabbing just as much attention than the actual music itself. On the cover she appears nude coming out of court surrounded by media cameramen. Another photo of the single art shows the Bronx native wearing nothing but handcuffs. The last photo released shows Cardi clothed, still wearing cuffs but sharing a pose similar to a photo of notorious serial killer Aileen Wuornos who murdered several men from 1989 to 1990 in Florida. Her grizzly exploits were portrayed on the big screen in the film “Monster.”

“Monsta's gon' tear it up,” she says as the song begins. “Bardi!”

Cardi keeps her energy high on the chorus: “Press, press, press, press, press./
Cardi don't need more press./
Kill 'em all, put them hoes to rest./
Walk in, bulletproof vest./
Please tell me who she gon' check./
Murder scene, Cardi made a mess./
Pop up, guess who, bitch?...”
