Remembering Robin Williams

BY: GURU JAY

Do you remember watching Flubber as a kid or a grownup even? Who could forget that bubbly giant blue genie from Aladdin? How about that tear-jerking and gut busting Patch Adams movie? Like you, Robin Williams serves my memory well. He had six senses and humor was one of them.
Robin Williams was an alien because his comedy was out of this world. Moreover, his spirit is still alive. We always saw him in a bright light. He was a kind, generous, and genuine human being.
Most of his movies like Jack, Happy Feet, and Bicentennial Man brought families closer together. They were also meaningful and thought provoking. Many of his films reflected on humanity.

We find that life is a set of circumstances. The path is never straight because there are roadblocks and redirections. Yet, we “get by with a little help from our friends.”
Robin Williams was a friendly guy. He could relate to almost anyone from Hollywood’s elite to the cashier struggling to pay rent. And The Good Morning Vietnam actor could identify with the American Marine serving his 3rd tour in the Middle East too.
In fact, the great comedian went over to war-torn territory to tell jokes in front of our brave troops. This should show you Mr. Williams was sincere. He cared deeply about the lives of others, especially his family.

I feel you are not measured by the amount of money you leave, but by how much happiness you bring to others. Have you seen Robin Williams HBO standup special? All of his standups are such a pleasure to watch. While displaying his talent, creativity, and might simultaneously, the legend seized moments.
And so, remember Robin Williams for his reputation. You could always count on him. Even Santa Clause envied Robin William’s gifts.

Worship the Queen of Pop: Madonna

BY: GURU JAY

Worship the Queen of Pop. Madonna receives adulation from millions of enthusiastic fans. Madge flipped the script by entertaining crowds while you watch the throne.
Madonna is all on my Twitter. Images from her Rebel Heart Tour are fascinating. Right now The Material Girl is in Melbourne, Australia cutting the rug.
Money isn’t a concern for the future billionaire. Few folks can compare to her level of popularity. Her fandom and fame reaches absurd heights.
We’re talking about diehard fans willing and ready to do anything to make her happy. Honor Madonna because the celebrity exceeds limitations at concerts. Also, the world warmly embraces the star.
She aims to please. And Madonna serves her guests the best bread and finest wines. What’s better than her amazing performances?
Aren’t you a little Madonna stalker? What are your favorite albums? How many concerts have you been to?
You see the red carpet unravels wherever the Hollywood star walks. True followers throw rose pedals at her feet. Your dream job is to serve as Madonna’s personal assistant.
Imagine what the pop star’s lifestyle must be like. She lives higher on the hog than Princess Kate. The sex symbol engages with the most interesting people on a daily basis. Plus, she truly loves her profession.

I hear the haters saying, “Royalty doesn’t need to work.” My answer is Madge doesn’t have to work either. She works because The Queen of Pop has a reputation to uphold.
In my book, Madonna became a legend years ago. I rarely call a living person a legend because I feel you’re whole body of work should be evaluated first. However, Madonna is an exception to the rule.
What is more, Madonna’s influence on popular culture is felt from continent to continent, country to country, state to state, city to city, and person to person.
Final thought, would you go crazy after meeting Madonna for the very first time…Like A Virgin?

Elvis Presley aka the King of Rock and Roll Rules!

BY: GURU JAY


Uncle Jesse from Full House had an Elvis Presley obsession. This was a recurring theme on the show. Do you remember how John Stamos wore his hair just like the legend?
Let me take you on an adventure to Graceland. Imagine being in the presence of royalty. The King of Rock and Roll is alive and well because he faked his death. I’m pulling your leg but let’s keep visualizing His Imperial Majesty ruling his faithful subjects.
You worship the ground he walks on. Of course, he walks around in blue suede shoes. Don’t step on them! He never bought into Michael Jordan’s Nike brand.
“It’s one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready. Now go cat go!” What are your favorite Elvis Presley songs? Without question, Elvis broke down barriers and defined popular culture.


In an alternate universe Marilyn Monroe is Mrs. Elvis Presley. Unfortunately, celebrities aren’t created like this anymore. Elvis was the ultimate celebrity. He epitomized fame and glory.
What is baseball without Babe Ruth? What is music without Elvis Presley? There’s no way you can talk about the history of baseball without bringing up Babe and it’s impossible to discuss music without acknowledging the greatness of Elvis.
I’ll take you to the gift shop here in Graceland. Maybe, I’ll let you go on a shopping spree. Wait; there goes Michael Jackson and Tupac Shakur. They tell us Elvis is underground partying with Madonna and Rihanna. Oh, the contrast! Michael’s tone sounds so soft and Tupac has a deep voice.

What you say, Pac? Gaga’s upset because Madonna’s making it difficult for her to spend time with the king. She thought Tony Bennett could give her some leverage because he knew Elvis in the beginning.
Back to reality, ironically Elvis appealed to your fantasies.
Elvis Presley was a lion of a man. Lionesses love serving their king the absolute best. Are you a party animal? “Wild thing, you make my heart sing…”

Carlos Santana Celebs concerts Electric Guitar entertainers Guru Jay Hispanics International Jimi Hendrix Latinos legends Maria Maria Mexicans Music Oprah Rock and Roll rock stars Sensations

Experience the Creative Sounds of Carlos Santana

BY: GURU JAY

Have you heard Carlos Santana’s electric guitar? How can I describe the creative sounds of Carlos Santana? Imagine paradise.
Have you noticed the best entertainers are eccentric? Like other celebrities, Santana has pet peeves. You see the music artist knows exactly what he wants do, and where he needs to go.
After nearly 50 years of activity, he hasn’t slowed down yet or missed a beat. It’s safe to say he follows the law of self-preservation. How about sipping some champagne in his honor?

If you desire to master the science of electricity, apprentice under an electrician. If you desire to master the arts of the electric guitar, utilize Carlos Santana as your mentor. What is more, the dynamic music artist is willing to teach.
Nowadays, finding exemplary entertainers is extremely difficult. Understandably, no one wants to lose his or her edge. That why some singers seem sketchy.
They think one hit will suffice. That’s when you realize how precious the Mexican sensation is to true artistry. You know that Santana sacrificed blood, sweat, and tears.

Plus, his passion resonates with people. His music connects with Latin America as well as the whole world. I’ve heard him do some things I thought only Jimi Hendrix could do.

Who else can make his guitar talk like Oprah? What other guitarist receives as much respect as Carlos Santana? If you search his music catalog, I guarantee you’ll find hidden gems. Discovering this music artist is similar to walking on the moon.
Finally, his sound harmonizes a performance. Singers can feel his powerful presence on a song. How amazing is this musician?
It is a magnificent sight beholding his beautiful music. Don’t you enjoy his creative sounds? Unfortunately, practicing day and night won’t get you to where Santana is now.

I believe his abilities are God-given.

Bob Marley’s Legacy

Bob Marley represented more than just Reggae. The legendary singer symbolized music in all forms. If you keenly listen to lyrics, you’ll appreciate the celebrity’s creative mastery.
The Jamaican icon made songs with such ease.
The great musicians get their juices flowing in all directions. By in large, Marley’s music brings you to higher ground.
Name your favorite Bob Marley songs. My top five favorites are: One Love, Three Little Birds, Stir It Up, I Shot the Sheriff, and Bad Boys. There’s something special about the singer’s vocal command, which I can’t put to words.

Bob Marley’s legacy will last forever because his timeless music resonates with multimillions. Like Stevie Wonder, Marley’s sound cannot be replicated. There isn’t a Karaoke imitator on Earth that can fully capture Bob’s brilliance.
When you need encouragement, search through Bob Marley’s catalog. Because of his originality and skillfullness, his albums sellout quickly. Moreover, his positive message desensitizes injustice, oppression, cruelty and evilness.
Rastafarianism considers Bob Marley to be a pivotal prophet and messenger. Furthermore, the celebrity transformed popular culture with music- rallying hundreds of thousands on several continents. Despite death, the Rastafarian’s message still spreads across nations like wildfire.
From Sean Kingston to Blake Shelton, Bob Marley definitely influences modern musicians. While alive Marley lived a laidback lifestyle, where he minimized pressures and maximized pleasures. Although the musician lived in luxury, Bob identified with poor people as evidenced by his generosity.
The celebrity’s thriving story illustrates the importance of perseverance. Never allow your trials and tribulations to stop your success. Stop struggling and throwing pity parties. Essentially, be like Lady Gaga and start attending Monster Balls.
Bob Marley was not only a bricklayer but a lion in the concrete jungle.

American Idol Beyoncé Celebrities Eighth World Wonder Entertainment legends Let's Get It On Marvin Gaye Motown Music purpose Sexual Healing Tammi Terrell The Voice Usher What's Going On

Why Marvin Gaye Was the Eighth World Wonder

BY: GURU JAY

Do musicians serve a purpose? Should their songs make you feel good? Are they suppose to make you dance?
The legendary Marvin Gaye gave his blood, sweat, and tears to Motown. Gaye’s songs still spark imagination and inquiry. Music gave him a platform to deliver and spread his peace loving message.
Every man must discover his calling. There’s a plan in order for everyone. Find your love and passion. Then, pursue your destiny.
Marvin Gaye was destined for greatness. The legend’s music strongly influences society and popular culture. ‘What’s Going On?’ remains relevant because Gaye understood the meaning of struggle and progress. Isn’t he an inspiration?

Marvin Gaye composed soulful lyrics. That’s why his music is timeless. The man was larger than life.
Imitation is the best form of flattery. Robin Thicke flatters the great Marvin Gaye. Gaye’s family has actually sued Thicke for copyright infringement. Thicke stole Marvin’s music, moves and mannerisms. 

Also, Usher credits Marvin Gaye. And if you listen to Beyoncé’s ballads more closely, you’ll hear an element of Marvin. From John Legend to John Mayer, music artists pay homage to his mastery.

Gaye’s smooth style and calm demeanor were natural. The charming musician created classics. Music lovers cherish the beloved musician’s albums. 
It is virtually impossible to watch a season of ‘American Idol’ or ‘The Voice’ without hearing a Marvin Gaye rendition. The entertainer went beyond the scope of music. He was a heavyweight.
Late at night, I might play ‘Sexual Healing’ or ‘Let’s Get It On.’ When I’m ready to see other people, I spin my ‘Heard it Through the Grapevine’ record. Of course I keep his duets with Tammi Terrell spinning in my head. You see Marvin Gaye was not a one hit wonder. Marvin Gaye was the Eighth World Wonder.

There wasn’t a mountain high enough, a valley low enough, or a river wide enough to keep him from fulfilling his purpose driven life.

Why Madonna Must Answer to Lady Gaga And the Texas State of Music

BY: GURU JAY
Sex Symbol
Madonnadeserves respect. She is an iconic sex symbol. But, I enjoy listening to Lady Gaga’s songs more than the material girl’s music.
I don’t intend to diminish Madonna’s legacy. I just want to highlight Lady Gaga’s achievements. Lady Gaga is the new Madonna. But let’s not forget how Madonna blazed the trail for today’s singers.
Do you think Lady Gaga cares more about the music or the sex? When you’re on her level, money is not a real concern. Lady Gaga can make a living just by licensing her name. This is a fair question.
I ask this question because I like to know what so-called sex symbols think. Take Scarlett Johansson for example. Does acting come before beauty?
Look at Lady Gaga. She is a perfect specimen  created in a laboratory. Her Body Mass Index has to be lower than 15. Does she eat at all?
Can Lady Gaga dethrone Madonna? Yes. Give Gaga some time and she’ll rise to number 1. I rank Lady Gaga 2nd right behind Beyoncé.
In 5 years, Madonna must answer to Lady Gaga. The telephone will ring and Gaga is on the line. Will Madonna accept the call? If not, Beyoncé is about to bust her out of jail.

Gaga’s music registers 9.9 on the Richter scale. Go for cover because when the lady rocks it’s an earthquake.

If I’m having a party Lady Gaga gets the first invitation. Then I’ll invite Miley Cyrus, Rihanna and Katy Perry. It’s all a matter of preferences.
I prefer high quality entertainment. In the words of James Brown “we’re gonna have a funky good time.” I like Lady Gaga because she’s comfortable in her own skin.
She’ll wear her birthday suit anywhere. She digs deep down in her soul when she performs. Can you name a better performer?
Would you rather go to a Lady Gaga or Katy Perry concert? I am a Katy Cat but I am also a Big Little Monster. Katy stays in the safe zone.
Gaga takes you on an adventure. Now, Katy is the perfect wedding singer. I can imagine my future wife walking down the isle while Katy Perry hits a high note. But, make no mistake Lady Gaga will perform at my bachelor party.
Wonder Woman
There’s TV Politics and there’s Music Politics too. Lady Gaga appeals to an adult audience. So she makes riskier music than Perry.
If Katy Perry is rated PG 13, Lady Gaga is rated R. Okay, I’m not saying Katy gets a free pass. I just think Gaga gets sacked a lot.
I didn’t understand the Tony Bennett affair at first. Now, it makes perfect sense. Gaga is his Wonder Woman and Bennett is her Batman.
Lady Gaga Sings the Blues

Tony Bennett rescued Lady Gaga. Tony took her under his wing in the nick of time. Bennett provided Gaga with a safety net.
Nobody embodies greatness better than Lady Gaga. Gaga became famous out of the blue. She committed herself to music like a soldier.
She’s highly trained and disciplined. Who outranks her? Just think about her devotion.
She loves entertaining. What is more, Gaga engages her fan base in real life as well as on social media. She has the cutest poker face.
You never know when she’s bluffing. Lady Gaga can do what she wants with her mind. I’ve seen concerts where she dominates the stage. She’ll make the stage her boyfriend.
She doesn’t have to sing Alejandro for you to get the point. Gaga plays to your senses. She is a sex symbol. Moreover, she can deal with fame. Check out the Top 20 Celebrity Quotes.
As a celebrity, you have to face pressure. There’s no way around this. You’re expected to do your part. Many celebrities avoid the spotlight. Lady Gaga embraces the attention.
Grabbing attention is not a bad thing. Would we really care about a ‘twerkless’ Miley Cyrus? Entertainment is meant to entice us.
Who wants to see a mediocre or boring performance? We want to see the best. So, what does it take? The answer is sacrifice.
Lady Gaga is outspoken about sacrificing her love life in order to build her career. That’s how she befriended Tony Bennett. Tony saved her from being a one hit wonder. Now, Gaga soars the charts like Wonder Woman.
I just want Lady Gaga to be healthy. Check out how to be healthy like Katy Perry. You see Lady Gaga appears to live on the edge.
I hope she gets centered. She can take a page from Tony Bennett’s playbook, and sing songs until she’s 90. Learn from Madonna.
Music moves fast. So, it’s surprising when a celebrity like Lady Gaga stops to smell the roses. Why can’t the Paparazzi leave her alone? She has the right to privacy.
Lady Gaga doesn’t owe us an album every two years. She should take a break and experiment a little. She should make a new sound.
Lady Gaga has an untouchable voice. At times she sounds like a DJ scratching a record. She can do what she wants with her vocal cords.
Can you imagine a Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars duet? Let’s make it happen. I’ll write the song.
Texas State of Music
Welcome to the Texas state of music. Music is not dead. In actuality, music is better than ever. It’s not fair to compare today’s sound with the 60s and 70s.
Bob Seger has got it completely wrong. I like that old time rock and roll too. But, I also like this new time rock and roll… Lady Gaga’s got the same soul!
I got three words: Beyoncé, Shakira and Rihanna. How can you throw their music under the bus? You can’t write off legendary talent.
Bruno Mars is in another world. Just the Way You Are, Grenade, and the Lazy Song combine for over 1.5 Billion YouTube views. So don’t believe the hype. The haters will hate.
Now, I’m not naive. I’m not saying every song is a hit. I understand there are misses.
All I am saying is don’t dismiss hit makers. YouTube is largely popular, in part, due to VEVO. Who listens to music on YouTube?
In this new age, Lady Gaga pushes the limits. I admire her bravery and courage.
Katy built a powerhouse because Gaga took a little break. Katy has evolved to number 1.
I previously ranked Gaga higher than Katy. However, right now Katy tops Gaga. But watch out: Lady Gaga will reclaim her position. Thank you for reading. I am Guru Jay launching off into orbit in 5-4-3-2-1!
