Why Zara Larsson Is a Spotify Superstar


    Adele isn’t the only one influenced by Beyoncé. Sweden’s Zara Larsson cites Beyoncé as an influence as well. Soon Zara Larsson will become an influential brand. Larsson is a great singer with a bright future. She’s already made a name for herself in Stockholm. It is only a matter of time before her name light up the skylines of all the major cities. 

    Ava Max recently received a billboard in Times Square. I expect Zara Larsson to receive the same treatment. Her music compares to Dua Lipa and Bebe Rexha. Plus, Zara was a child star like Miley Cyrus. Check out the Love Me Land video, and you’ll see the comparisons for yourself. The visual aspects of Midnight Sky are similar to Love Me Land. Do you think you can dance? Zara moves like a gazelle. She is a Spotify superstar. 

    Could you imagine the 22-year-old with a Hollywood movie career? Maybe, Lady Gaga can give her some tips. What are your favorite songs and music videos by the artist? Wow is making a comeback through Twitter. Also, Zara Larsson is a trending Google search. Her hit songs are a big reason why she is search engine friendly.

    Additionally, she’s taking over Spotify, which is a Swedish based company. Watch her Youtube subscribers continue to grow. I predict great success for the singer. Her new album will be released by late 2020. I believe Zara Larsson will win a couple of Grammys. Her background and ambitions are ideal for the entertainment industry. Zara is active on social media and engages a loyal fanbase. She could take a page from Beyoncé‘s book. I feel she sounds like a mixture of Rihanna and Taylor Swift. What are your thoughts about Zara Larsson? Could she reach superstar status? Are you excited about Poster Girl like I am?

Ava Max Is the Real Thing

    Ava Max will release Heaven & Hell, her debut album, on September 18th. Expectations are high for the Milwaukee native. The question is: will she exceed them? The 26-year-old singer is signed to Atlantic Records. That’s a big deal.
    Like Dua Lipa, Ava Max’s potential is huge. I expect her name to ring bells for years to come. I’ve already listened to many of her songs, and I can attest to her high-quality sound. The definition of great music is originality. There is no one else in the business that sounds quite like Ava. That’s why music fans can expect a durable brand.
    Her name is short and sweet. Plus, she’s laid the groundwork by releasing songs and music videos ahead of time. As someone who likes watching the stars, I can say she’s headed toward stardom. Let’s revisit this blog post in five years, and you’ll find what I say is true. I’ve seen stars burn out and lose their shine. Watch Ava Max glow in due time.
    She started in the entertainment industry in 2016. Four years later, the world is watching her develop into greatness. What titles will she claim? The Kings and Queens singer pays homage to music royals. If she plays her cards right, she’ll be an ace in showbiz. Music is like playing poker. Everyone isn’t Lady Gaga.
    I predict Ava Max will rise to the occasion and exceed expectations. Music fans are dying for a brand new voice. Music moves fast. Not too long ago, Britney Spears dominated the industry. Now, I feel the market share is up for grabs. Everyone, who wants a piece, should get a slice of the pie. Time tells a lot of things. It’s only a matter of time before Ava Max shows she is the real thing. “Ain’t nothing like the real thing, baby!’

Favorite New York City Celebrities

BY: GURU JAY


From Barbara Streisand to Christina Aguilera, a star was born in New York City, New York. New York City celebrities like Lady Gaga, shine brightest this time of year. As we celebrate our old friendships and new acquaintances, let’s recognize our favorite New York City celebrities. Who is your favorite NYC celebrity?
Have you ever been to NYC? Have you had a chance to experience Christina Aguilera in concert? Christina Aguilera has so much soul.
I’m excited about Xtina’s New Year’s Eve performance tonight on ABC. She brings it home. I look forward to a fun filled night.
If you could copy her voice and repackage it, you would make millions of dollars. Beautiful, Genie in a Bottle, Candyman, Dirrty and Bound to You are just a few of Christina Aguilera’s greatest hits.
Did you know Alicia Keys was from New York? Enjoy listening to Empire State of Mind. Alicia Keys defines rhythm.
Alicia Keys was born to entertain. There’s no one like Alicia Keys, and that’s why she’s recognized today even in Tokyo, Japan.
Let’s throw in Mariah Carey while we’re at it, because she is the epitome of New York City celebrity. When it comes to music this time of the year, who does it better than Mariah Carey? Mariah is a gift that keeps on giving.
Still, New York isn’t just about music. New York City is a land of entertainment…Broadway shows, movies, and television. Scarlett Johansson is a prominent resident.
She has starred in exceptional films such as Lucy, Avengers, and Ghost in a Shell. The excellent Scarlett Johansson is a household name and a big box office ticket. This Hollywood actress should become number 1 soon.
There are a ton of New York City celebrities. It seems every celebrity would like to associate with the city in one form or another. Taylor Swift recently moved there. Who are your favorites?

If you want something to do, why don’t you listen to some music? Listening to music is more than just a hobby. Listening to music is a lifestyle. Can you imagine life without Vevo, Spotify, and Coachella?

Have you heard any good songs lately? I’ll share what’s new on my playlist with readers. Recently, I have discovered Lorde. I highly recommend listening to the singer. I plan on attending her concert in the future.

Her sound is similar to Lady Gaga’s futuristic music. She sounds like a talking saxophone. There’s something special in her voice that only a few singers possess. No one can deny her creative streak.

They say if you can make it here in New York, you can make it anywhere. 20 year-old Lorde demonstrated her big time abilities in the Big Apple as musical guest on Saturday Night Live last March. Her performance received an ample round of applause from a lively crowd. It wouldn’t surprise me if Lorde is invited back to host as early as next year.

The Tennis Court songstress makes headlines like Serena Williams weekly. She may even surpass Serena’s popularity one day soon. But right now the Wimbledon legend is on top.

Still, Lorde has the whole world ahead of her. Did you know the sexy songstress originates out of New Zealand? The hot Iggy Azalea originates out of Australia, which is not too distant from the Green Light singer’s headquarters.

As a result of hard work and good looks, Lorde is a major trend in search results. In fact, she was the 5th most Googled celebrity a month ago. I believe she is in the process of building a global fan base right now. She generates a lot of traction in magazines, on blogs, and around town.

Top 5 Pop Songs of 2016

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?

2016 AMAs AMAs AMAs Recap American Music Awards Ariana Grande Celebrities Entertainment Guru Jay Hollywood Lady Gaga Music Niall Horan Showbiz Singers Sting The Chainsmokers Twenty One Pilots

2016 AMAs Recap

BY: GURU JAY

2016 AMAs Recap


Last year’s AMAs may have been the best ever. What’s better than the best? This year the AMAs tried to do the impossible and succeeded.

Hats off to Gigi Hadid and Jay Pharaoh for hosting. Hadid was hot as ever and Pharaoh was funny as hell. It was an interesting combination.

Plus, let’s acknowledge Bruno Mars’ grand entrance. Bruno Mars displayed master showmanship. You must have loved those incredible dance moves he stuck. He didn’t miss a beat. And he didn’t miss a note singing either.

Fans were treated to an amazing show. Fifth Harmony immediately grabbed everybody’s attention. They showed the world why they are the fabulous five last night.

The Weeknd made his triumph return. And it seemed like Drake took home every award imaginable. It was nice seeing fellow Canadians Justin Bieber (via Europe tour) and Shawn Mendes perform.


Niall Horan did his number. Lady Gaga did her thing. Robert Downey Jr. did a tribute to Sting.
You had all the Hollywood stars there.

One could argue Sunday night belonged to Green Day. Other big winners included Twenty One Pilots, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande and the Chainsmokers. Talk about sensational. Twenty One Pilots turned the stage into an airplane.

What were your favorite moments from last night’s AMAs? Do you think Jennifer Lopez set the bar to high for the new hosts? Were you highly entertained or did you snooze away? What didn’t you like?

I think Shawn Mendes Treat You Better could have been better. It was just okay if I’m being honest. However, his Mercy performance was above average border lining great. I believe he was a bit nervous.

Overall, you can’t underestimate the entertainment value of the AMAs. From Lady Gaga to Sting, every performance had exceptional merit. We may not have liked everything but we can agree on some things. For one thing the AMAs were very entertaining.
