10 Nineties Emo Albums You Should Hear
I'll admit it: I've been a bad emo kid. Like a lot of millennials, I sincerely thought that emo started in the 2000s, when bands like Taking Back Sunday and Aiden appeared on the scene. However, when I did some research, I learned that emo's roots go all the way back to the mid-eighties.

Brian D'Ambrosio interview
Driven To Keep Creating: A Life of William “Bear” Rinehart By Brian D'Ambrosio Son of a preacher, William Rinehart grew up in Seneca, South Carolina, at the high foothills of the Appalachians. His mother taught piano lessons. His father played the trumpet. Music was a mixture of gospel, rural hillbilly, bluegrass, and rock and roll, all slammed together. At age 13, his job on the weekends was to vacuum the old ugly carpet at the church and he liked it when the congregation left their instruments strewn about. In between spells of cleaning, he would pick up a guitar and study the sheet notes.

OF LIMBO Have Leveled Up With New "Unplugged" LP
Long Beach, CA Rockers OF LIMBO have just released their new “Unplugged” album, which shows a deeper, more thoughtful side of the band. They have built a reputation of performing over-the-top, rowdy and fun live shows with their high energy version of heavier rock. This new LP showcases a more intimate and contemplative side, and they show growth and are leveling up - by exhibiting how broad a range they have beyond writing and performing hard rock bangers. The album showcases a quieter acoustic sound with a mix of original songs and 3 covers of classic tracks. They produced and mixed this set of songs at their home studio, and had it mastered at Long Beach Mastering by Brian Frederick.

Michael Jackson Didn’t Perform at Live Aid — Here’s the Real Reason Why by NWO Sparrow
The King Who Stayed Home: Why Michael Jackson Skipped Live Aid Back in 1985, the entire world stood still for Live Aid — a global, star-studded concert broadcasted to over 1.9 billion people in more than 150 countries. The biggest names in music came together to raise funds for famine relief in Ethiopia. Queen’s set is still talked about to this day. U2 made their mark. Prince Charles and Princess Diana were in the building. But there was one massive, elephant-in-the-room type absence that had people scratching their heads — where was Michael Jackson?

Louder Than Legends: Why Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath Were More Influential Than The Beatles
When it comes to musical influence, The Beatles are often worshipped as untouchable gods—the Mount Olympus of rock and pop. Their melodies, mop-tops, and psychedelic studio wizardry are burned into music history. But let’s be real: for countless working musicians, especially those who actually plug in an amp and bleed calluses onto their fretboards, Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath rewired the entire musical universe in ways The Beatles never could.

Andando en el barrio por Rikkilarouge 2021 released on the Spinnup InGrooves Universal Music Group disco con la Luna guiarme
this is a video for salsa song of mine that I did called Andando en el Barrio. In English, it means walking in the neighborhood. This was a song that I did on my last album in Spanish called con La luna Guiarme , which means with the moon to guide me. The song itself was from when I went walking in Spanish Harlem one day. I went in order to try to find this mural that was done . No such but I song that you have today. The album and song was released on spin up record label that used to be on universal music group. There’s another version of this there’s another video for this song, but I prefer this one instead. This is one of the music videos that my first music videos that I started directing myself. There are other music videos that I’ve directed and in the future, I’ll be posting them so you guys can see. The concept for the music video and the concept for itself go together beautifully hand-in-hand. The other video version for this song I’m not a big fan of it because I was really in bad shape when I recorded that one. But this one is a heck of a lot better. I’m not saying the other one isn’t good. I’m just saying I was out of shape when I shot it, though just being honest here. I really directing music videos. It’s another outlet of creativity that I found that I could actually do with success. there are other tracks that I recall that I directed just I guess you could say drafts and stuff but no. But for in the neighborhood I went with a concept of one day I was in my car and I just to recording the stores in the city streets as we were passing and it fit right there along with the music so very well. I later back at it it came out really really well. This version of the video I’m a lot more happier this version than I am with the other one for obvious reasons I don’t look that good in the other one that’s mainly a reasonable vanity but still that’s a good reason not to want that video over this one. This video was comes from footage. I took when I went to New York City and other surrounding areas too. Like there’s a mural of Tito Puente in it. I also saw mural of Celia Cruz in it that I saw that I just wanted to add in the music video too Just a shout out and tribute to two Latin music greats.

Cayo Coco the video, the song, and the review
Grammy-nominated artist re-releases culturally significant single ‘Cayo Coco’ MIAMI, FL – In 2013, Miami-based artist Rikki La Rouge dropped an album called “San Antonio” through Interscope Digital Distribution and Universal Music Group that went on to be a first round nomination ballot album for the 57th Grammy Awards 1st round nomination ballot. She was on the ballot alongside artists such as the Salsa Giants, a salsa supergroup featuring one of Rikki’s main influences Willy Chirino. Selena is the other primary influence of Rikki La Rouge. The album gained notoriety around the world for its anti-Castro sentimentalities and “Free Cuba” mantra that echos across all the songs on the album. The single “Cayo Coco” received the most praise. And now six years later, Rikki La Rouge is re-releasing the song during a time when she said the world needs to be reminded of the themes that were presented in that song.

Rikki La Rouge Cover of Como La Flor and Baila Este Cumbia
This is a rough demo I did of the Selena song Como La Flor. Even though it’s a rough demo, it did record really well. I recorded because she’s one of my favorite all-time singers. Also, when I was in high school, I sang in a talent show, and I decided to do my version of the Selena used to open the song by doing of the course first and then so I did a studio or makeshift studio in my case version of that song and it did come out really well, even though it was a rough demo that I did and it’s only rough because the what I recorded on was not equipped for that.
