NEW MUSIC ALERT

Hello, music lovers! Apparently, the world is a better place in Pink. It’s a Barbie-verse out here.

I gotta give it to the marketing team over at Warner Bros. & MATTEL, Inc. Not a single soul went without uttering at least one mention of Barbie in some way, shape, or form. From the viral social media filters to photo opps, it seemed as if life is indeed fantastic in Plastic. Thus far, the reviews of the film have been positive, and the gross box office sales exceeded Hollywood’s already high expectations.

In conjunction with the film, the soundtrack is getting rave reviews as well. The project recruited the best of the best in music, including KAROL G, Lizzo, Tame Impala, Ava Max, Brandi & Catherine Carlile, Billie Eilish, among others. Listen to my favorite of many off this iconic soundtrack, here.

Another exciting mention goes to beloved Country Music star, Chris Stapleton. He announced a November 10th release date for his new album! The unproblematic singer shared his single, ‘White Horse,’ off the forthcoming LP.

The streets are talking, and unlike some of his peers in Country Music this week, Mr. Stapleton is constantly demonstrating what a standup guy he is. The man is a breath of fresh air. He got soul! (IYKYK.)

While gems of Chris Stapleton in the wild rarely supersede headlines rather than his music, we often get nuggets of how genuine the music icon truly is. A photo of Stapleton went viral back in May of Chris with a leaf blower, helping venue crews clean up after the ACM Awards. The same event he won four awards just hours prior.

I speak on behalf of music fans from around the way, that we eagerly await to hear what this humble legend is cookin’ up! Until then, listen to his single, ‘White Horse.’

Like Mr. Stapleton, Post Malone is another greatly appreciated hitmaker! The general public has nothing but kind words for Posty, and it seems via these encounters with fans that the lyrical wizard is genuinely a nice person. The beloved singer-songwriter dropped another pre-release off his upcoming self-titled album, ‘AUSTIN,’ which is set to debut on July 28th.
