White Reaper- Asking for a Ride

If I’m being honest, I haven’t been a White Reaper fan for long. Their music has just never really stuck with me. When Pages came out, it had such a different alt-indie sound, it instantly intrigued me. With the release of this new record (although I do think a lot of these songs are their classic, heavier style) however, I think this record shows a much more refined and lyrically strong sound for White Reaper. If you weren’t a fan before, I highly recommend giving the record a listen.

Billie Eilish Makes Rolling Stone’s List for top 25 most stylish musicians

Well deserved! Billie stands out in the fashion world for her different looks, and collaborations with companies such as Nike and H&M. However, she also has very outspoken opinions on her own look. Billie has not only put herself out there as someone who believes in wearing what looks and feels good, but also has left no room for haters.

The Biggest Commodity to Work With In the Music Industry

Travis Barker takes home to 2022 Drumeo Award for Rock Drummer of the year. Are we surprised? 2022 was a huge year for Travis; He executive produced Machine Gun Kelly’s eighth studio album which was not only in the Billboard top 200, but also debuted at number 1 on the Billboard album charts. He executive produced and collaborated on Avril Lavigne’s Love Sux record which had over 30,000 album sales. He produced Blackbears’ record “In loving Memory’. He married Kourtney Kardashian. And he now preparing for a major comeback tour with his former multi platinum band, Blink 182. Drummeo did an awesome story explaining the many accomplishments and mastermind behind Travis. If you are at all a fan, or a drummer, it is a must watch!

The Band Camino

I’ve like this band so much that their music has been in my iTunes top 25 played consistently for 2 years now. While their music is deep, and their lyrics are strong, overall the easiest way I can describe their work is they are just catchy. Light-hearted, fun and they have a pop/indie sound that I think can make any type of music lover a fan.

Songs I recommend:
