Ani DiFranco – Up Up Up Up Up
Artist: Ani DiFranco Title: Up Up Up Up Up Label: Righteous Babe Rating: 9/10 While Ani can be fiery, passionate, and often disturbing, it is her intelligence and vivid lyrical paintings that make her offerings so gratifying. Up up up up up up, her twelfth solo album, is awash in the Wurlitzer, but never slim…

Bell Biv Devoe – BBD
Artist: Bell Biv Devoe Title: BBD Label: Universal Rating: 2/10 BBD? Remember the song “Poison”? Where have these guys been for a decade? The last time I saw Michael Bivens he was in Boyz II Men’s video for the first song they ever released. So these guys have been out of the limelight for what…

The Corrs – In Blue
Artist: The Corrs Title: In Blue Label: Atlantic Rating: 5/10 I want to know what was in the drinking water up there in Ireland because The Corrs might just be the best looking family I’ve ever seen. Not only were they blessed with beauty, but also a hell of a lot of talent. They sing,…

O-Town – Interview [2002]
How’s the tour so far? It’s going awesome. Right now we’re out with Britney, which has been an overwhelming experience. We’ve gotten to perform for a lot of people who have never seen us perform before and for people who are used to seeing edited television. That has done wonders for us, being able to…

Robert Bradley – Time To Discover
Artist: Robert Bradley Title: Time To Discover Label: RCA Rating: 8/10 Coming out of the box quickly are Robert Bradley and Kid Rock, roaring and taking you “Higher”. Robert Bradley’s vocals are extremely gripping and beautiful. Just imagine Lenny Kravitz but more mature, and then add bits of both B.B. King and Ray Charles’ souls…

Artist: Apollo 440 Title: Gettin’ High on your Own Supply Label: 550 Rating: 7.5/10 Posing a good question about Apollo 440, “Are we a rock band or what..?” is the first track on their third release.
