Beyoncé’s new self-titled album takes her (and us) to some mighty weird and exhilarating places.
From Bowie to Madonna to Gaga, pop music has always been as much a visual medium as an aural one.
Britney Jean is stocked with a mix of harsh EDM a la “Scream & Shout” and flaccid midtempo pop.
Artpop’s most naked, straightforward pop moments that are the album’s most redemptive.
Lady Gaga has composed a convincing anthem of remorse.
It wouldn’t be giving too much away to say that things don’t end well for the former boy bander.
It’s Kelly Clarkson’s original songs that elevate Wrapped in Red above just another holiday-industrial-complex cash-in.
TLC’s new greatest-hits album, 20, offers everything the casual fan needs.
Prism is another collection of three-and-half-minute potential hits that even cynics will find hard to resist.
The video for Rihanna’s “Pour It Up” is a display of hip-hop clichés.
The video for “Work Bitch” finds Britney Spears flanked by eight female backup dancers in knee-high patent leather boots and black one-pieces.
The Killers new single was produced by M83’s Anthony Gonzalez.
The film is beautifully shot, art-directed, and costumed, with shades of “Vogue,” “Die Another Day,” and more evident throughout.
Here’s hoping the rest of the album’s got some hidden punches.
Closer to the Truth not only perpetuates Cher’s exhausted formula, it fails to reinvent it.
“Shot at the Night” might not be either the band’s or Gonzalez’s best work, but it’s a promising direction for Brandon Flowers and company.
Britney Spears has dropped her new single, “Work Bitch,” a day early after the track leaked online over the weekend.
Arcade Fire has been more than a little bit coy about their new album, Reflektor.
True to its retro-hip-hop style, the track pays homage to the Beastie Boys’s “So What’cha Want.”
The music video for Miley Cyrus’s “Wrecking Ball” is all monotones except for the singer’s bleached locks, red lips, and piercing blue eyes.
