Pop Music Daily

I was able to know Rihanna because of her song Umbrella. I think this song gave her a very good break in the Pop Industry. She was able to make her name popular because of this song. I’m sure many people were able to make this as their “Last Song Syndrome”. Honestly. I’m one of those! I was even able to appreciate it more when I heard Mandy Moore’s version. Indeed, Rihanna, from being a newbie pop artist last year, made a big and successful step this year.

To know more about her, visit this site: top40.about.com. I liked this quote from Rihanna: “I want to give people a taste of the Caribbean, and show them the fun side of me.” As I was inspired with her profile, I’m sure you would be inspired too.

Before, Britney Spears is one of the great names in the world of pop. Her music is always on the top hit charts. But now, everything she established before, like career, riches, fame and also beauty are all gone. Why Britney? Why?

It is true that your name wouldn’t shine forever in the lime light. Though Britney contributed a lot in the world of pop, people still continue to rebuke her. How bad isn’t it? Though she is already trying to regain the people’s support, she ends up being criticized with her every move. This just tells that a big star today can be a small star tomorrow.

It is more meaningful to be remembered for the good things done today and tomorrow than be popular today but not anymore tomorrow.

John Mayer likes his ‘Js’ – Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Jennifer Aniston – and while people may have an issue with his behavior towards the girls he dates, his music speaks different tones.

Mayer started his musical career as a member of the duo LoFi Masters, along with band mate Clay Cook. This was after he dropped out of Berklee College of Music. LoFi Masters disbanded due to musical differences, as Mayer wanted to pursue making pop songs. He was successful at this with hits like “Your Body is a Wonderland”, “No Such Thing”, “Why Georgia”, “Back to You”, and “My Stupid Mouth”.

Mayer has also slowly made a transition into blues forming an eponymous trio, the John Mayer Trio. He has also collaborated with artists outside his genre, like Kanye West and Herbie Hancock.

Tired of listening the High School Musical? Try this new music sensation that somehow… will blow your mind. Atlantic Records released the soundtrack to Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist last September 23, 2008 online and in stores. Artists featured on the soundtrack to the buzzed about movie include Vampire Weekend, Band of Horses, We Are Scientists, and Devendra Banhart. Directed by Peter Sollett, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is based on the bestselling novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. The Screen Gems movie hit the theatres on October 3 and was on the number 6 spot on the blockbuster hit. Nick (Michael Cera) frequents New York’s indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass. Norah (Kat Dennings) is questioning pretty much all of her assumptions about the world. They have nothing in common except for their taste in music. Their chance encounter leads to an all-night quest to find a legendary band’s secret show and ends up becoming the first date in a romance that could change both their lives.
