What Mariah Carey Can Teach Ariana Grande and Meghan Trainor

BY: GURU JAY
Whether we’re exhausted or fully charged Mariah Carey serves our needs. Who doesn’t mind falling asleep and waking up to MC? How about setting the tone of your alarm clock to one of her songs right now?
Mariah Carey is my favorite singer for a personal reason. When I was 21, I would listen to Mariah’s music with this girl to the crack of dawn each weekend. I only mentioned how much she looked like the star and she told me how big of a fan she was. So we shared that and chilled together.
Mariah Carey’s song was not only my high school graduation class song but my brother’s as well. Mariah Carey is awesome. There’s no doubt about it.

Who can question the unquestionable? Who can deny the undeniable? Who can teach the unteachable?
Both Alicia Keys and Ariana Grande sing angelically. However, Mariah Carey has the voice of a goddess. The pureness of her sound is astounding.
What are your favorite Mariah Carey songs? I like We Belong Together, Don’t Forget About Us, and My All. Plus, I enjoy her Beautiful duet featuring Miguel.
The Fantasy songstress consistently creates so many number 1 hits that it seems unrealistic. How many records has she shattered? Who can claim they’ve reached Mariah Carey’s mountain of success musically and financially?

Music students pay attention when Mariah Carey is teaching class. Ariana acknowledges Mariah’s greatness. That’s why I believe Carey can teach Grande great things.
Grammy Award winning Best New Artist Meghan Trainor should meet with Mariah for coffee soon. Mariah Carey is much more than a veteran. She is a four star general of music. She could train Trainor and promote her to top rank.
I go straight to the source and don’t beat around the bush. I admire Carey’s kindness and sincerity. She serves everything on a silver platter. Whether we’re tired or wired, Mariah is always something to be admired.

Introducing Tori Kelly

Let me introduce you to Tori Kelly. Born and raised in Southern California, the singer embraced the entertainment business at an early age. In fact, Kelly auditioned for American Idol when she was 16.
Right now, the 23 year old’s debut album Unbreakable Smile continues to sell units. Because of skyrocketing demand, producers are reissuing her album on January 29, 2016. Moreover, her upcoming concert tour should unload a busload of tickets.
I first learned about Tori Kelly after watching her perform on the Jimmy Kimmel Concert Series. Ever since then, I’ve researched her name in the search engines, listened to her music, and watched her music videos.
I believe that Tori will stay true to the music.
By and large, the singer’s discography shows a willingness to take risks. I’m of the mindset “nothing ventured, nothing gained.” Tori’s talent also takes us on adventures with songs such as City Dove.

Type Tori Kelly in the search box the next time you decide to browse YouTube videos. There’s something special about this California Lover. She is nominated for Best New Artist Grammy on purpose. She’s capable of competing with Meghan Trainor. That’s why the legendary LL Cool J and the exciting Ed Sheeran make music with her.
The I Was Made For Loving You songstress was also made for loving music. Her passion for music inspires thousands. In a couple of years, she’ll be inspiring millions without a doubt.
As far as style, Tori Kelly is a mixture of Jessie J and Alicia Keys. However, instead of banging ebonies and ivories like Keys, Kelly vigorously plucks silver guitar strings. She isn’t scared chicken shit by gossip. I believe Kelly has fully developed as a music artist. Not only is her skin thick, but it is “sho ‘nuff pretty.”

Although she’s far from her prime, she’s had 7 years since American Idol to work on her sound. I don’t jump on bandwagons I build them. Come ride the Tori Kelly express with me.

The Angelic Voice of Ariana Grande

BY: GURU JAY

The angelic voice of Ariana Grande is unlimited. Ariana sounds like a harp when she sings. You would think vocal cords have certain limitations. However, the pop singer defies conventional wisdom every time she plays her natural God-given instrument.
You see hitting high notes requires superb skills. That’s why Ariana Grande’s throat is a treasure cove. Sometimes it seems her neck can’t bear all that pain, but she stretches to her breaking point like a disciplined yogi.
The 22 year old’s body might be pint-sized but she has a gigantic voice. Moreover, the Focus songstress is determined to become a legend. Right now I believe she is an elite entertainer with some room left to grow.

Fans flock to Ariana Grande concerts because they know she’s capable of being number 1. I’m sure you’re quite familiar with Disney princesses. Well, Ariana is a Nickelodeon princess. She was a teenage star on the VictoriousTV show before becoming a superstar.
Although she’s only in her 20s, Ariana Grande has accumulated tremendous experience. I predict the pop princess will create numerous chart-topping hits in the foreseeable future. Music has never been more commercialized. I see this trend working in Ariana Grande’s favor- not because her lyrics are catchy- but because she is the prototypic dreamgirl. In other words, she delivers, baby!
Imagine Ariana Grande and Bruno Mars singing duets together.

Ariana Grande’s popularity is soaring. With 55.2 million Instagram followers and counting, it’s hard to tell her what to do. Still, everybody should listen to constructive criticism.
I believe Rihanna and Gaga can teach Grande how to handle fame because they became famous in a different way. A wise man once said: “there’s more than one way to skin a cat.” Guru Jay says “remember only to take advice if it’s good.”
I would like to wake up to the angelic voice of Ariana Grande. Also, I would like to go to bed listening to Ariana Grande. OMG (Oh My Goodness), I think I’m turning into a super-fan.

The Rising Stardom of Meghan Trainor

BY: GURU JAY


Last year Meghan Trainor rose to fame with her hit song All About That Bass. Right now Meghan’s music video has amassed over 1.2 billion views on YouTube. The rising star has a bright future.
Her clear voice commands attention. I believe Meghan Trainor could become a pop idol if she keeps up the good work. Time is on the 22 year old’s side. Moreover, working with John Legend and Charlie Puth supports her cause.
She is a fine singer, who seems to be fulfilling her dreams and potential. There are too many musicians wasting their talent. Substance abuse is often the main culprit.
Celebrities must resist temptations everyday.
Once you conquer the demons, the sky opens up for you. Trainor should stay on the right course and not get distracted.

Thank goodness the Like I’m Gonna Lose Yousinger was discovered. Born and raised in a small town in Massachusetts, Meghan now resides in Los Angeles. Though she is hardly at home because the entertainment business demands a large chunk of her time.
Trainor’s Title album was certified platinum. I have a feeling that her Thank You album will also gain platinum status. Meghan appeals to a wide demographic because she doesn’t have trouble with displaying her curves. Women should have a healthy body image like Meghan no matter their size. Be comfortable in your skin even if you’re thin.
The reason for this young entertainer’s success is that she’s different. There is nobody else like Meghan Trainor in show business. What is more, when it’s show time she turns up the temperature.
Check out her 2015 AMAs performance if you haven’t done so already. The hot blonde deserves to be on top of the Billboard Hot 100. Plus, she appears to have a good attitude. Trainor hasn’t turned into a stuck-up diva.
I believe she’s a little sweetie because she had a good upbringing. Her family pictures are all over Instagram. The Dear Future Husband songstress is a jewel. I’m happy to see the rising stardom of Meghan Trainor.

What Is Country Music Without Miranda Lambert?

BY: GURU JAY

What is country music without Miranda Lambert? Her best is yet to come. Miranda Lambert could become the next Reba McEntire or Dolly Parton. If she smartly markets her name and creates a valuable brand, she’ll have unlimited earning potential.
They say all things from Texas come in big packages. No wonder Miranda was born there. She has the biggest chops outside Oklahoma.
Back in 2003 she became a finalist on Nashville Star. 2 years later she debuted her first album entitled Kerosene. Soon after blazing country trails she set the world on fire.
Today, the country singer’s reach isn’t constrained by geography. Miranda Lambert has demonstrated she is the cream of the crop. She has proven her dynamic ability to consistently generate hits. I love listening to Lambert sing.

Her latest album, Platinum, showcases a wonderful exhibit of her talents. She is a skilled music artist driven by passion. Miranda Lambert is excited to tell a story with her carefully crafted lyrics.
Miranda’s rank falls in between Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson. If Carrie is a 10, Miranda is an 8 or 9, and Jessica is a solid 7 as far as music is concerned. Now, as far as attractiveness all 3 blondes are 10s.
Although Miranda Lambert’s birth records say she’s 32 years old, she could pass for 25. As you can see I am great with numbers. And Miranda produces them in the form of record sales, concert tickets, and social media. Amassing 8.5 million Facebook likes like Miranda Lambert is an impressive feat.

Like George Benson, Miranda Lambert will make it on Broadway ‘cause she can play this here guitar. The House That Built Mesongstress is a homegrown sensation. Country music isn’t the same without one of her biggest stars blessing the microphone.
Miranda’s mission is to serve mankind with her offerings. Her image is worth a king’s ransom. That’s why she graces the covers of magazines for an exorbitant fee. Most say she’s worth every penny.
What is more, Miranda means the world to country music.

Why Usher Is A Superstar

BY: GURU JAY

  
For over a decade, Usher was on top. Right now he is a superstar. When you create great music nothing else matters. Usher’s greatness is unquestionable.
Without question, LinkedIn and Monster.com couldn’t have charted him a better career path. Musicians can live comfortably off of one hit wonders. That’s why Usher can take breaks. The artist has produced a dozen number 1’s.
If he’s not moving mountains, he’s making love in this club. The superstar cites Marvin Gaye as a major influence. Their styles are similar and so are their lyrics. Trading Places sounds a lot like Marvin. Do you know the words to Sexual Healingand Let’s Get It On?
Have you been to any of Usher’s concerts? Groupies obsess over him because he is personable and seductive. Usher previously stated he works out before every performance. I wonder if his physical fitness attracts honeys.

When you’re high up on everybody’s VIP list, how do you keep your ear to the ground? Although he’s a multimillionaire, Usher isn’t out of touch. I believe it’s because he realizes that he is fortunate. Plus, like Maxwell, he’s never sang a song with all his might!
How many times have his albums went platinum? Who else has won 8 Grammys?
What is more, in the noisy entertainment world Usher is mellow.
Can you picture the mononymousentertainer touring with Justin Timberlake?

Astronomy teaches you they’re a trillion stars. However, Hollywood teaches you a superstar is a rare sighting. Luckily, Usher was born into the industry. In fact, his mother managed his career for a while when he was younger.
You see the constellations must align accordingly. You must wait patiently for everything to connect. Ironically, Nice & Slow accelerated the celeb’s career. 

Usher is a superstar because he decided to shepherd the flock instead of following the herd.
