Nostalgia is a major fuel source for pop culture today, stimulating our brains with positive memories. But nostalgia can only get you so far. A bunch of the bands we grew up on are not only still together, but still killing it.
Kelly Clarkson, the multi-talented singer, and host of The Kelly Clarkson Show, has performed a heart-wrenching rendition of Paramore’s 2009 single “The Only Exception.” Clarkson’s powerful performance on her morning segment, Kellyoke, offered a stripped-back cover of the hit single accompanied by Jaco Caraco’s delicate, acoustic strumming to create an intimate and captivating soundscape. Clarkson’s interpretation of the 2009 release demonstrated her ability to capture the essence of the song’s original format while adding her own unique twist.

Get ready to get your groove on and your chores done with KiNG MALA’s new single “dirty dishes.” Unlike her previous releases, “she calls me daddy” and “cult leader,” which emanated her natural charisma, commanding personality, and certainty, “dirty dishes” injects her discography with a fresh, luminous approach. “The day I wrote this song the line that kept coming to mind was, ‘I gave you the door code to my apartment.’ I was falling for someone new, and I had just given them open access to my life, whenever they wanted – which was terrifying,” KiNG MALA—aka Areli Castro—shares of… Read more »
