Production

The collection included a cover of Johnny O'Keefe's "Wild One" (here titled "Real Wild Child (Wild One)" and three original songs co-written with ex-Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones. The remaining tracks were co-written by Bowie, who also produced the album with David Richards but, unlike his previous work with Pop, The Idiot and Lust for Life (both 1977), did not sing or play any instruments. Bowie biographer David Buckley has reported that Pop "virtually disowned" the record, calling it "a Bowie album in all but name".[3] It has never been specified what tracks on the album, if any, originated during the sessions of Bowie's 1984 album Tonight (that album's co-producer, Hugh Padgham, has recalled that Bowie and Pop collaborated on some songs that Bowie ultimately rejected for inclusion on Tonight).[citation needed]
Release and reception

Described by Allmusic as "the most calculatedly commercial album of Iggy's career",[4] Blah-Blah-Blah was certified gold in Canada (more than 50,000 copies sold) and reached top ten status in many European countries. In the U.S. it peaked at #75 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart.[5] Rolling Stone's contemporary review complained of a "nagging homogeneity to side one" but continued that "even at

    Her album was inspired by a former boyfriend ("Biography: Adele Lifetime"). The much-anticipated album did not disappoint upon its release ("Adele Biography"). This album was a change in direction from her first album, which incorporated country music. The song “Someone Like You” rocketed the album to number one in over twenty-six countries. Adele’s songs “Rolling in the Deep” and “Someone Like You” both made it to the top five. For the first time since the Beatles, a British musician had two singles and two albums in the top five at the same time.

    When The Fabulous Freebirds first came to the ring with rock and roll blasting, it was revolutionary. When Vince McMahon got Cindy Lauper and MTV to cross-promote their programming it was groundbreaking. For every hit moment like those in rock and wrestling, there are plenty of flops. The Simon Cowell produced "Slam Jam" can barely be considered music and still somehow managed to hit the UK charts. Looking back, "Rap is Crap" made the otherwise lovable Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig look like an out-of-touch, redneck tool. At WrestleMania XIX, Limp Bizkit got Roman Reigns level boos from the crowd who were generally sick of their repetitive, whiny nu metal. Even on a personal level wrestlers and rock musicians have clashed. Motley Crue drummer Tommy…

    Record labels began dictating to the artist what was to be considered Hip-Hop. Artists like Soulja Boy Tell’em, Drake, and Lil’ Wayne are at the forefront of the Hip-Hop of today. The majority of the content in their music reflects the voice of the younger Hip-Hop generation. Songs like Lollipop, Get Money, and No Hands only talk about money and sex. The overall criticism has been the lack of diversity in the music. Crank that Soulja Boy was a big hit for Soulja Boy Tell’em but to Hip-Hop purists, the song lacked creativity and lyrical content. Another difference between the eras would be in radio play. Laffy Taffy, by D4L, was another song that was a big hit commercially that several people use as an example for the lack of creative skill and musical integrity. Twenty years ago, you would turn on the radio and hear different records with a variation of styles and song content. Today, if you on the radio, you will hear what many would consider the same type of rap record being made by different artists. The reason behind the lack of creativity is believed to be because artists and record labels are more concerned about record sales and…

    Bowie had gone through many different phases in his life that added to the success of his music. It was experimental and different compared to many movies and songs taking place in the decades of his popularity. Interviewers would describe the rise of Glam Rock as the genre that Bowie was the so called “king” of. A few examples of Bowie’s music in this genre are featured in songs like "Fame" (Bowie, 1975), "Heroes" (Bowie, 1977), "Let's Dance" (Bowie, 1983), "Modern Love" (Bowie, 1983), "Without You" (Bowie, 1984), and many more (Brennan, 2017). He was described for demonstrating “the uncanny ability to exploit virtually every musical trend without mastering any.” In these ways, Bowie’s genius put a revolutionary, yet inspirational twist to the sound of music as people hear it nowadays (“David Bowie,”…

    I was in the first semester of my senior year in high school. It was 1986 and “Walk This Way” was on the airways. I found myself really enjoying this “Rap” song by this group Run-D.M.C.. I would later find out that it was an Aerosmith song re-made. At the time I didn’t and couldn’t believe it because I had never heard of Aerosmith before or any of their songs. I actually had heard of “Sweet Emotions”, but I, at that time, had never known who sang that song. I had already been listening to rap music for a few years. I only knew of the groups my friends knew and later would fing out that Run-D.M.C. had mad two albums before the Raising Hell album which “Walk this Way” was on. Over the next couple years I learned more about this group from hearing previous albums like King of Rock which I ended up buying later on down the road. I also saw the movie Krush Groove which featured many rap artists like Kurtis Blow, L L Cool J, and the Fat Boys. This movie came out a few years earlier but I was none the wiser back then.…

    Those numbers are evidence of the music's continuing popularity but also just how big a hit the album was upon its initial release, during which some two-thirds of these sales occurred. The music from this record was omnipresent from 1982 through 1984, and ultimately the album yielded seven Top Ten pop hits culled from its nine-track total.…

    Earlier this year, XXL magazine released a video of Desiigner performing a freestyle titled “Timmy Turner”, a bit that surprised a lot of hip hop followers who believed that the guy who delivered “Panda” would be yet another one hit wonder. However, the small, 46-second video upended everybody’s expectations of the young rapper, and created a huge hype over the Internet. Desiigner’s freestyle is everything “Panda” is not: impromptu, melodically complex and sung gently in a hushed voice, rather than rapped in an aggressive style. Because of the ridiculous success that the freestyle had, Desiigner decided to release a full radio version of the song that had the same melodic, catchy hook placed right at the beginning of the piece.…

    The music industry is always waiting for the freshest tunes, the weirdest-sounding voices and the never before seen charisma as it always thrives for something or someone new. Not that all the existing artists are trash but music somewhat conforms to the how its listeners are---always hungry for more. One of the best ways for fans and haters alike to know who's who on the current music scene is through closely monitoring what US Billboard Hot 100 has for its list. When a group or an act penetrated the charts, it is quite definitive that a lot of people is patronizing it, or should hear it for that matter.…

    Artists have found a variety of ways to rework other pieces to create their own original products. However, only a few ways are recognized as acceptable; mostly, that is through gaining permission to use the copyright materials and crediting the original artist. There are popular instances where copyrights are not followed exactly as intended, though. One such example is DJ Danger Mouse’s underground production, The Grey Album. The Beatles’ self titled album, also known as The White Album, and the a cappella release of Jay-Z’s…
