The El Pea Situation
Introduction About a month ago, I started becoming obsessed with the vinyl album "El Pea", and I am not sure why. I had also aquired a copy of "Bumpers", which is a great album, and "Nice Enough To Eat" was one of the first albums that I bought, and it introduced me to a lot of artists who are absolute favourites of mine.

She Writes Her Own Rules: Stunna Sandy and the Art of the Bad Gyal Anthem by NWO Sparrow
Bad B**** Music & Gold Dreams: The Rise of Stunna Sandy From the moment she laughed off my first question, âHow does it feel to know youâre next?â, I knew this wasnât just another interview. Most rising talents hope for the spotlight , Stunna Sandy commands it, with the casual magnetism of someone whoâs already won. Her voice, soft but with Brooklyn bravado and Egyptian pride, didnât pitch a dream, it narrated a takeover. By the time she casually mentioned âMake It Look Sexyâ was only her third song ever, it hit me, I wasnât just talking to a future star. I was talking to someone whoâd already outgrown the word ârising.â

The Playlist That Got Me Through Heartbreak
The Playlist That Got Me Through Heartbreak They say music heals what words cannot, and I never fully understood that until my heart shattered one quiet October morning. The end wasnât explosiveâno screaming, no betrayal, just the slow, soul-bruising realization that love was no longer enough. One moment we were making weekend plans, and the next, he was packing a bag, saying, âI just donât think weâre right anymore.â

Rikki La Rouge cover album of Willy Chirino songs âen Avenida de Willy Chirinoâ
this is Rikki La Rouge version of âs classic song Canta. It was released on Willyâs 1993 album or 92 album South Beach. My version of is a flamenco one. I think it came out really well. My vocals were awesome, me playing the guitar on this song by the way and thatâs me clapping in the background too. I hope that you enjoy what youâre here. This song was included on a cover album of Willy Chirino songs that I did called en Avenida de Willy Chirino or on Willy Chirino avenue. Recording this cover album of Willie Torino songs was a labor of love and a privilege to do so. The message of is just always stay positive and anything negative that comes your way. Just keep going it will always pass and just keep singing a happy tune.

Cayo Coco the video, the song, and the review
Grammy-nominated artist re-releases culturally significant single âCayo Cocoâ MIAMI, FL â In 2013, Miami-based artist Rikki La Rouge dropped an album called âSan Antonioâ through Interscope Digital Distribution and Universal Music Group that went on to be a first round nomination ballot album for the 57th Grammy Awards 1st round nomination ballot. She was on the ballot alongside artists such as the Salsa Giants, a salsa supergroup featuring one of Rikkiâs main influences Willy Chirino. Selena is the other primary influence of Rikki La Rouge. The album gained notoriety around the world for its anti-Castro sentimentalities and âFree Cubaâ mantra that echos across all the songs on the album. The single âCayo Cocoâ received the most praise. And now six years later, Rikki La Rouge is re-releasing the song during a time when she said the world needs to be reminded of the themes that were presented in that song.

Rikki La Rouge Cover of Como La Flor and Baila Este Cumbia
This is a rough demo I did of the Selena song Como La Flor. Even though itâs a rough demo, it did record really well. I recorded because sheâs one of my favorite all-time singers. Also, when I was in high school, I sang in a talent show, and I decided to do my version of the Selena used to open the song by doing of the course first and then so I did a studio or makeshift studio in my case version of that song and it did come out really well, even though it was a rough demo that I did and itâs only rough because the what I recorded on was not equipped for that.

The Best Pre-Guitar Solo Vocal Line: 7 Powerful Contenders
Like so many good ideas, this one was fleshed out during a semi-inebriated discussion with a friend. The topic, which I had been sitting on for several weeks, was a simple one: songs with epic vocal cues before a blistering guitar solo. It's not quite objective or quirky enough for the places I usually publish, but it's a fun topic for me as a guitarist and music fanatic, so I'm writing about it anyway. Let's go.
