Amy Winehouse: Music Industry’s Angel

Amy Winehouse: Music Industry’s Angel


Amy Winehouse was England’s Janis Joplin. Without question, Amy is singing with the angels now. Winehouse and Joplin may very well be recording duets produced by Saint Peter himself.

The legendary songstress established a legacy of greatness. This celebrity was one of a kind in a full house of Hollywood stars. You see the spotlight shined on her everyday. Also, no one can question her amazing abilities.

I highly recommend Amy (2015) because the documentary film showcases the entertainer’s originality. You’ll like how the music artist became unique. Plus, you’ll appreciate her vocals much better after seeing this expert performer go to work.

At her peak, she wasn’t more popular than Britney Spears; but that didn’t matter. All that matters is the music she gave to the world. And the music she gave was a life of empathy and kindness.

In a sense, Amy’s name is synonymous with music. Scratch that. Amy means music in every language!Plus, like Lady Gaga the young lady was fearless and she made bold moves.

Winehouse passionately crooned. Maybe, she was best known for Back to Black or back to Rehab. So the story goes…In her own words to paraphrase a bit “Yes I been black but when I come back…they tried to make me go to rehab. I won’t go.” She said NO NO to celebrity rehab.

What Chuck Berry is to Rock and Roll, what Bono is to U2, Amy Winehouse was to Neo Soul. She developed new sounds in the studio booth and on the concert stage. Who can deny Amy Winehouse her legendary status? She rightfully claimed her throne in England like Janis did in America.

In a nutshell, Amy meant the world to the music industry because she pioneered a creative sound. Her vocal chords stretch toward the heavens. It is my honor and privilege to write this tribute to a great soul.

Best Blogs Bob Dylan Celebrity Entertainment Guru Jay Music Nobel Prize in Literature Showbiz Singers

My Bob Dylan Story

BY: GURU JAY
Times are a changing. Oh was Bob Dylan right. I’ve been hard at work trying to create a masterpiece.
Right now, I’m writing on the back of typing paper with an ink pen. Before this I started writing the Bob Dylan story on my Apple computer. In other words, I took my precious time on this blog and I accept star treatment.
You see, most writers just go to Starbucks, drink their Grandes, and write their blogs. Well at Guru Jay, I create original entertainment stories which will blow your mind. Maybe, I might just show the behind the scenes creation. I’ve written over 400 blogs and each one is different. It’s a piece of me. So with that said. Here you go, my friend.

It’s official. Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize in Literature. What more can the 75 year old accomplish?
Some people don’t win a prize, let alone a Nobel Prize. We’re rewarded for our efforts sometimes. Other times we work and work and work like Rihanna and nothing happens. That’s when you gotta pull yourself up by your own bootstraps and make it happen. In the end, longevity can come.
The legendary Bob Dylan made things happen; and, he’s making it happen right now. His boots were made for walking but this ain’t a Jessica Simpson song. Yes, Bob Dylan sings things. No, I can’t get you his autograph.
It seems music (everything, really) is taken too literal today. Beyonce says Becky with the good hair and everybody automatically assumes she’s referring to an actual person. We need more metaphors in music such as Dylan’s Like a Rolling Stone. Moreover, Like the Rolling Stones say “You can’t always get what you want but if you try sometimes you might find you get what you need.” You see Bob Dylan’s music doesn’t fall on deaf ears.

All the Planets Orbit Around Miley Cyrus

Howdy! Miley Cyrus is her name and music is her game. I wonder if the Dead Petz celebrity has any pet peeves. Anyway, let’s start the show.

Fans were Partying in the U.S.A. when Miley Cyrus became a Voice coach. I’ve watched this season of the Voice so far, mainly for Miley. Wasn’t that clever how the singer enlisted Dolly Parton in order to form her team? Who wouldn’t want to be chosen for Team Miley?

In addition, Miley Cyrus will remain on my VIP list forever. I support my celebrities and I’m loyal without a doubt. Even when she marries Liam Hemsworth, I will still like her because she’s hot. No matter what I’m down for the Cyrus cause.

Plus, I love Miley’s personality. The entertainer is nonjudgmental. She can sing her ass off; and bake a cake at the same time. What?!

You could argue Miley Cyrus is in the process of building a bigger name than Britney Spears. All the planets orbit around Miley Cyrus. Right now, she has 31 million Twitter followers. Britney is beating her with 47 million. However, things change.

Did Britney Spears ever show Miley Cyrus love? Probably not because the music industry is more competitive than Harvard. You see Britney is back in business, and that makes Miley her competition. Check out Britney Spears: Back In Full Swing at your leisure.

Also related are Why Christina Aguliera Is the Voice and How Adam Levine Is Different. You can find all these and more inside the Guru Jay Archives.

Wouldn’t it be great to see these two collaborate? I don’t care if they sing along together or if Britney only sings background vocals. All I want is to see them work side-by-side on something. Shout out to Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj. Let’s make it happen. A man can dream… All the planets orbit around Miley Cyrus.

50 Cent Actor Addicted Best Blogs Celebrity Courtney A. Kemp Entertainment Excellent Exceptional Guru Jay Hollywood Movies Music Omari Hardwick power Power TV Showbiz Starz TV shows Writer

Are You Addicted to Power TV?

BY: GURU JAY

My brother first told me about the Power TV show on Starz back in 2014. Now, my sister watches it and everybody in my circle does so too. For what it’s worth, I’ve watched every episode in every season; and, I can attest to the TV show’s exceptional quality.

I think anybody concerned with gaining street knowledge should watch Power because there are morals to their stories. Although Tommy should be idolized, you do realize that he’s going to end up in a body-bag eventually? Also, you might as well conclude that Ghost is dead already since everybody has took a stab at killing him since season 1. There’s clearly a plot to kill.

But James St. Patrick is strong. He won’t die. Remember what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Omari Hardwick’s character is fundamentally fit to be a drug kingpin for years to come. And dying right now is bad for business, specifically the marketing department.

It’s the characters that give life to the story. Who’s your favorite character? Isn’t Omari Hardwick the best actor? And Joseph Sikora is the shit too. But my favorite character is SPOILER ALERT… Lobos (sorry to see you go.)

I like Lobos aka Jefe (translated as Boss in Spanish) the best because he did the least amount of work and reaped the most amount of money. While everybody was doing the dirty work, Lobos kept his hands and feet manicured and pedicured, respectively. They feared and respected him the most.

The writers room on Power come up with incredible ideas. The writers don’t stop developing their story lines. There is always something unexpected in the script. Moreover, the directors and producers take their time positioning key players and putting key pieces in place. I love creator Courtney A. Kemp.

Finally, the music contributes significantly to Power’s greatness. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson created a few good songs for the show. Big Rich Town and I’m the Man are on my playlist right now.

Are you addicted to the TV show? It is a superior product for certain. Everything about Power is excellent.

The Intangible Assets of Alessia Cara

The Intangible Assets of Alessia Cara

Do you believe in Alessia Cara? Her voice is like magic. I feel there’s something special about her sound; and, I would like to pin point it.

The question is can science explain art. This music artist could have majored in science because her technique is cutting edge. Moreover, the I’m Yours singer’s lyrics are a mix between a biomedical engineer’s equation and a poet’s stanza. Did you know Alessia Cara actually writes poetry and plays the guitar?

Without question, Alessia is an asset to showbiz. Plus, the Canadian has many intangible assets. She gets you both excited and indifferent with her singing and songwriting. Here is a genius song written by a 19 year old.

The celebrity competes with the crème de la crème and you know it. Still, it seems Alessia stays in one lane. She’s a driven celebrity who drives solo by design.

You can’t see everything. Like magic, sometimes you don’t see her and right now you do see Alessia Cara. What is more, the celebrity has a solid fan base. She’ll soon eclipse 1 million Facebook fans and Twitter followers. Cara can shake, rattle, and roll with Zendaya and Tinashe too.

Who would love to see her on the silver screen? She would probably make a better actress than singer because of her humility. Nowadays, the music industry contain the biggest egos.

Alessia Cara reminds me of Alicia Keys due to her messaging. That is an intangible asset. It’s so hard finding lyrics with a deeper meaning.

Anyway, this celebrity was built for the entertainment business- this I know. You’ll discover Alessia’s durability due to her ‘go get it’ attitude and firm mindset. She’s laid back, but not lazy.

A music brand must be built with platinum bricks. Yes, you can go for the gold but why not go even higher? Maybe, you need to adjust your mirrors once in a while.

Why Shawn Mendes Is NOT the New Justin Bieber

Why Shawn Mendes Is NOT the New Justin Bieber

It seems Shawn Mendes is the new Justin Bieber. He is dominating YouTube and Twitter. I would argue that his name is more famous than Taylor Swift in Canada. But can there really be another Justin Bieber?

Shawn Mendes just turned 18 years old, and now he has the whole world listening to his music. Remember Justin Bieber got off to an early start too. Isn’t that something… they’re both Canadian?

Outside Germany, Canada brews the best beer. Outside America, Canada breeds the best singers. Give extra credit to Drake and the Weeknd.

Mendes isn’t old enough to drink alcohol in the United States. However, he’s able to entertain drunken crowds. Maybe, they should increase the drinking age to 24 because that’s when the brain’s fully developed. Or maybe they should lower the drinking age to 18 because that’s when men and women go to war.

Shawn Mendes puts the ‘S’ in Showbiz. Everyday he works hard on his craft to get better. Does he have to Show You? His sound is similar to Nick Jonas‘s Chains. Plus, the Stitches singer knows how to stitch up a track like Lil Wayne.

It’s scary in a good way. You see Shawn still has untapped potential. Picture the young celebrity joining up forces with 5 Seconds of Summer on a possible tour. What if he made an entire album with Fifth Harmony? Let’s hope Camila Cabello stays the course, although it appears she may go solo.

Music needs more Mendeses’ and less one hit wonders. Yes, I love catchy lyrics like you do, but let’s ask ourselves- what’s the catch? Let’s stop sacrificing great music for good.

Everybody has asked is Shawn Mendes the new Justin Bieber? My answer is NO. He is big enough to be his own man. You’ll see.

Enjoying a 5 Seconds of Summer Breeze

This summer has been a hot one from Boston to Sydney. In Michigan, we were lucky to get a breeze on Sunday. I was so happy to get that cool air I had finally wanted. Hopefully, it keeps up.

What exactly is “cool air?” I call it a 5 Seconds of Summer Breeze. You see 5 Seconds of Summer defines coolness. And another word for air is breeze. Plus, Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood, and Ashton Irwin are keeping it up!

Do you feel the heat? 5 Seconds of Summer blazes with the best of them. I guarantee 5SOS can make you sweat. Just ask their 9.6 million Twitter followers if the pop rock band gets them hot and steamy.

Luckily, the band was discovered by One Direction on YouTube. Can you believe it all started in 2011 on a video streaming website? Right now 5SOS are going in one direction for certain. I bet 5SOS never imagined this level of fame in their wildest dreams. It may get to the point where the music group is actually bigger than One Direction.

Did you know this Australian band of high school classmates opened up for One Direction? Now, the question in showbiz is who can open up for 5 Seconds of Summer. In a matter of years, 5SOS have transitioned from entertainment lightweights to heavyweights. Who can deny that they are some of the most famous people on the planet?

What are your favorite 5 Seconds of Summer songs? I like Amnesia, the new Girls Talk Boys, and English Love Affair. You see the You Look So Perfect singers sound so perfect sometimes.

Final thoughts- the 5SOS Rejects have a good story to tell. The truth is that they were rejected. Things weren’t easy at first. However, they persevered instead of perspiring. Relax and take time to enjoy the summer breeze if only for 5 seconds.
