Holy shit. Swift’s latest offering, Speak Now, has done what only two albums in the last five years have done and only a dozen previously in history have achieved: gone platinum in one week’s time. She just beat out Tha Carter III with 1.047M for best first-week since 50 Cent’s The Massacre moved 1.141M back in 2005. Considering the era in which Speak is being released, it’s an impressive number – to say nothing, of…
Music: it’s entirely, utterly, completely, undeniably, irrefutably subjective, right? Wrong. You daft idiot. Look, I know it hurts, but it’s true. Some music is just objectively woeful.

Whether it be chart music on the radio, an album on your iPod, or a memory on the tiny little Fisher Price turntable that is your mind, the song remains the…
A while ago, we told you about how Eminem will release 2 albums, and guess what. Now, 50 Puppy Dogg cent is doing the same thing, only according to him, it’s not the same thing. Whatever, idiots and 10 year old aside, I’m sure we can all draw the conclusions here. His first album ‘Before I Self Destruct’ was due for December, but it seems it will be released in June, and it will be…
Yup, here’s another Eminem leak from his upcoming new album “Relapse”, going by the name of ‘Crack a Bottle.’ This time, however, Slim is joined by Fithy’ and the good Dr. Dre on rap duties, as a catchy, almost hypnotizing bass background rolls in and loops and loops. Surprisingly or not, it’s not at all boring, quite interesting. Dr. Dre’s production work shine’s through out the track, though, kinda saving Eminem’s juvenile Solja Boy lyrics…
