Artist: NSNYC Title: Celebrity Label: Jive Rating: 7/10 *NSYNC have a lot to live up to and Celebrity is their attempt to show us that it isn’t effecting them. No Strings Attached set records that may never be broken, but now “Celebrity” tells us that none of that matters. The time is now and they…

David Garza – Overdub
Artist: David Garza Title: Overdub Label: Atlantic Rating: 5/10 David Garza is not an ordinary singer/songwriter. He doesn’t do the same song a hundred times, he doesn’t mimic some popular vocalists. He does his own thing. “Say Baby” is a crack at the current pop movement. “Drone” is a raw pinch. It’s a shame to…
