Oct 3, 2018This sad attempt at soul music, made by a warbler from the middle of nowhere, never received support from the R&B/Hip-Hop radio stations here in Washington, DC. And she still won't. Because people know that this is BS.

Oct 31, 2018Never patronize music made from a racist and anti-Semitic person. She supported racist and anti-Semitic Ron Paul back in late 2011, remember? Even worse, her album sales went up because of that. Racism isn't cool, okay?

Nov 8, 2017There are light nods to the times—single “Love So Soft” lightly updates Thankful’s Christina Aguilera-penned “Miss Independent” and Breakaway’s “Walk Away” with a half-time chorus, and tracks like “Didn’t I” and “Heat” recalls Adele’s collaborations with Max Martin. But the rest is stubbornly old-fashioned: sloughing off the flakiness of the millennial male while extolling the virtues of taking it slow and pushing for commitment.

Oct 30, 2017Go High closes the album on a surprisingly experimental note. The big, syrupy ballads, meanwhile, accentuate Clarkson’s undeniably powerful voice, creating a comfort zone that feels genuine.

Oct 27, 2017Yet for an album that promises revelation, Meaning of Life is full of generalities.
