This year is no different, with the MTV VMAs lineup absolutely stacked with performers. The show will include a dazzling group of stars who are honoring the 50th year of hip-hop, a special pre-show performance featuring NLE Choppa and Sabrina Carpenter, and even a Video Vanguard performance from award recipient Shakira.

September 8 is a spectacular new music Friday for alternative fans. Between Olivia Rodrigo launching her brand-new sophomore album GUTS and Motionless In White releasing the deluxe version of 2022’s Scoring The End Of The World, it’s fair to say we will be busy streaming new songs all weekend.

The MTV Video Music Awards isn’t just a superficial awards show. It’s an institution that has crafted some of pop culture’s most iconic moments. Frankly, no other awards show has created massive ripples in the cultural zeitgeist such as Miley Cryus’ famous twerking moment and Beyoncé’s baby bump reveal alongside bands such as Alien Ant Farm playing their cover of “Smooth Criminal” or Rage Against The Machine and Limp Bizkit feuding onstage in 2000. However, many viewers equate the MTV VMAs to purely celebrating the efforts of most American Top 40 artists. This could not be further from the truth.… Read more »

We love the music that cuts deep and makes you want to get up and smash into things. We have to admit, sometimes that love for the pop side of the genre takes over. Maybe it even bleeds into a bit of country-pop. We know we have our Swifties out there in the scene. However, long before Taylor—there was Shania and, man, do we love her (just ask our very… Read more »
