2016 was an awesome year in music history. Everyone from casual listeners to music buffs were clearly entertained. Beyonce and Justin Timberlake both have demonstrated why they are still on top of the pop charts. On this special day, I will countdown my top 5 favorite pop songs this year. Enjoy!


5. 24 K Magic By: Bruno Mars

When I first heard this song, I didn’t like it that much. However, something magical happened the second time. I saw Bruno Mars perform 24 K Magic live on Saturday Night Live and my mind changed instantly. This song easily makes my top list now, because Bruno’s techniques are legendary. Nothing beats the singer’s vocals at their best.

24 K Magic gets the party started better than the Black Eyed Peas Let’s Get It Started. I like it more than Uptown Funk. You see Bruno Mars is a dangerous man with some money in his pocket and you gotta keep up or you’ll get lost. Moreover, the lyrics are exciting.

4. Starboy By: The Weeknd

I can’t say anything bad about the Weeknd. Starboy shows why The Weeknd is a star. Did you catch his Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show performance? He stole the spotlight from supermodels. The Weeknd doesn’t hold anything back. He’s a dangerous man with some money in his pocket too. Check out Bruno Mars Vs. The Weeknd for an interesting comparison.

3. This Is What You Came For By: Calvin Harris Featuring Rihanna

I listen to This Is What You Came For every other day because Calvin Harris generates electric music. You need this celebrity like you need electricity. Boldly, I dare say that Calvin Harris is a modern day Elton John. Plus, his collaborations are always genius. Calvin finds the right vocals and mixes it with the right instruments. His calculations are never off a fraction.

2. Work By: Rihanna Featuring Drake

Does everybody love listening to Work By: Rihanna or what? The repetition, the beat, and the rhythm are 3 things that make this song worth it’s weight in gold. It is a priceless masterpiece of a song. Rihanna is obviously one of my favorite pop singers. And this is my favorite song by her. Rihanna is someone else I can’t speak a bad word about. Work is amazing!

1. Perfect Illusion By: Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga earns the number one spot on my countdown. Perfect Illusion came out at the perfect time. Gaga has shown throughout the years she isn’t a one hit wonder. What is more, Perfect Illusion broke the Internet. Apparently, YouTube crashed as a result of this video’s release. I choose Perfect Illusion By: Lady Gaga because the song has a certain intrinsic value. Only Lady Gaga could do it.

Honorable Mentions: Formation By: Beyonce and Can’t Stop the Feeling By: Justin Timberlake


This concludes my top 5 pop songs of 2016. What are yours?

Best Rappers Calvin Harris Celebrity Eminem Entertainment Favorite Rappers Guru Jay Hip Hop Macklemore Music rap music Ryan Lewis Seattle Showbiz Singers Thrift Shop Top 10 Rappers White Privilege

Does Macklemore Make Your Top 10?

BY: GURU JAY


Do you like Hip Hop music? Who are your favorite rappers? Does Macklemore make your top 10 rappers today?

Without question, the 33 year old rapper has raving fans across the globe. From Washington D.C. to Rio de Janeiro, the celebrity is highly regarded. With 2.8 million Twitter followers, it’s easy to see why people are mentioning his account right now.

I first learned about Macklemore after hearing Thrift Shop play on the radio 4 years ago. Since then, I’ve seen the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis music video many times. Sometimes I think “I’m gonna pop some tags,” especially when I only have 20 dollars in my pocket.

You see Macklemore has a message to deliver. It isn’t a fast or slow message. But the message he has for you is right on time.


He raps about what he knows. Moreover, the celebrity aka Professor educates listeners on a variety of topics. Some of his songs are entertaining and others are informative.

He doesn’t rap about living a hard knock life because he grew up living comfortably. You’ll find you don’t necessarily need wealth in order to be comfortable. But having a net worth of $18 million like Macklemore isn’t uncomfortable at all!

Right now, the rapper has emerged on the scene with more than just money in his pocket. He has lyrics in them that can spark a fuse. Songs such as: Kevin open people’s eyes to serious issues facing America and the world. He’s Not Afraid like Eminem to tell not only his story White Privilege, but also the stories of millions without a platform.

Macklemore represents Seattle better than some Senators. Respect Ryan Lewis too, because he contributes to creating that high quality content you receive. He reminds me a lot of Calvin Harris when it comes to collaborations.

Final thoughts, I like great hip hop music. Macklemore is one of my favorites because of his creative flow and timely lyrics. Macklemore definitely makes my top 10.

Why Ellie Goulding Is The Duchess Of Electronic Music

BY: GURU JAY
  

England’s Ellie Goulding is the Duchess of Electronic Music. The On My Mind singer dominates this niche. Fresh off a Good Morning America mini-concert, the hot celebrity is truly in your thoughts.
Check out the celeb’s gorgeous blonde hair. Look into her enticing eyes. Gaze at her high cheekbones. Does she even need makeup?
I guarantee she will sell out shows on her next tour. Although she’s underappreciated in the United States, overseas she’s treated royally. Her arrival might not be Beatles-esque, but Ellie Goulding has reached superstar status.

I predict she will win a Grammy soon. Love Me Like You Do deserves airtime plus multiple awards. If you ask me, Ellie has the best song on the 50 Shades of Greysoundtrack.
Goulding is famous because she makes cutting-edge music. She’s collaborated with the elite- including Calvin Harris, Lissie, and Tinie Tempah. What is more, the Duchess performed Your Song at Prince William and Princess Kate’s wedding. This proves Ellie is a deluxe entertainer.
When Goulding goes in, it’s all the way. She’s set to break records in her genre. The music artist continues to record feel good songs.

Her singing voice sounds Japanese. Moreover, she is sharp like a Samurai sword. In order to thrive in entertainment, one needs discipline. Without question, Elle understands this. You see she bends the rules but doesn’t break them.
You rarely find a proper pop music singer. Luckily, Jamie Lillywhite discovered Ellie Goulding, who was in college at that time. Who knows what would have happened otherwise?
She compares favorably to Lana Del Rey, Sia, and Katy Perry. You could argue that she is different. Plus, the superstar isn’t a finished product. The soothing songstress is only scratching the surface of her Excellency. These are the reasons why Ellie Goulding is the Duchess of Electronic Music.

How Calvin Harris Generates Electric Music

How Calvin Harris Generates Electric Music

Whenever we watch a Los Angeles Lakers home game at the Staples Center, we hear Elton John’s Bennie & the Jets play off the soundboard. I love that lyric “electric music and solid walls of sound.” Calvin Harris generates creative sounds like Carlos Santana.
His uncanny ability to control crowds at social events should not be minimized.

Music lovers appreciate How Deep Is Your Love by Calvin Harris & Disciples. Expect this hit record to climb up the charts quickly. The accompanying video was released 2 months ago on YouTube and already has reached more than 100 million views. Amazingly, it’s gaining momentum.

Calvin Harris makes sauna music. It’s always hot and steamy. Likewise, his ongoing relationship with Taylor Swift is pretty intense.
He’s been fortunate to collaborate with top talents Rihanna, Ellie Goulding, and Rita Ora. In another lifetime, he might have been the Prince of Scotland. Today, he’s collecting huge English Music Royalties.

How much does Calvin Harris charge to DJ weddings? Years ago when he first started I’d wager he had a figure. Currently, Calvin commands the stage like a Rihanna Navy seal. He’s turned into an international figurehead.

Musically, Calvin Harris is Prince Harry. Right now, Taylor Swift seems mesmerized by the hot and tall stud. Moreover, the one-man shop musician doesn’t buckle under pressure.

Taylor Swift’s time is too precious to waste on chumps. This lad has gained respect from music’s elite. As a producer, his potential exceeds the best. His sampling compares favorably to Kanye West and Diddy.

However, the genius of Calvin Harris is that he doesn’t compete with artists. Calvin feeds off their energy. Why does every prominent nightclub in the world play his music? He is globally appealing. They say sex sells; and the Scottish gent is a “sex salesman.”
What is more, Calvin Harris maximizes his strengths.
