2 Words That Describe Sam Smith

Aren’t you tired of all these catchy commercialized pop songs? All they are just jingles. They may sell like bubblegum but don’t market it to me as music. Call it Juicy Fruit for all I care.
When the wind blows and there’s a thunderstorm, that’s true music. We yearn to hear the lion’s roar for a change. Music should be a natural gift not a Christmas present.
Thankfully, great musicians still exist. Sam Smith is one of the greatest singers alive. I had to unplug my headphones when I listened to him today because his music must be absorbed and not constrained.
I published a piece called English Music Royalties you will enjoy. Sam Smith puts his heart and soul into each note. It’s easy to tell that the remarkable music artist is passionate about his craft. Plus, his fans love him to death.
The English musician is a classic storyteller. If Hemmingway could sing how he wrote, he would sing like Sam Smith. I know Shakespeare would appreciate Writing’s On The Wall. Like Stephen King, who can write anything and make it great, Sam Smith can sing anything and make it great.
Can you imagine Smith singing See You Again? Charlie Puth said in an interview that his sensational song was meant for Sam Smith. I’m actually glad Smith let Puth do it in a way, because that was Puth’s big break. You see Sam Smith isn’t a vulture.
Moreover, he doesn’t need to stab somebody in the back to get ahead. Although the music business may be cutthroat, Mr. Smith is not. He’s only clean-shaven. Anyway, even when he grows out a beard it’s always neat.
2 words describe Sam Smith: Class and Professionalism. The celebrity distinguishes himself from average entertainers because he never settles for mediocrity. Smith strives for perfection.
I believe in striving for perfection through practice. Greatness comes after purposeful preparation. You want a better world, then built it. Construct places filled with positive people. You’re a composite of the people you talk to and spend your time with the most. Avoid negative and pessimistic individuals who minimize your contributions, and seek out new friends who will lift you up.

25 Album Adele Celebs Entertainment Guru Jay Hello Hollywood Hometown Glory J.K. Rowling Music Rihanna Rolling In the Deep Sam Smith Set Fire to the Rain Someone Like You When We Were Young YouTube

Is Adele the J.K. Rowling of Music?

BY: GURU JAY

  
Is J.K. Rowling writing Adele’s lyrics? Is this the best-kept secret in entertainment? How else do you explain this domination of the music business? While I don’t believe the Harry Potter author is her ghostwriter, I do believe Adele possesses supernatural abilities.
What does the water department put in their drinking water over there? The singer’s vocal chords sound refreshing. Once again, there’s something special about the English sound of music.
Like J.K. Rowling, Adele will collect royalty checks forever. She recently released a new song entitled When We Were Young. Three weeks prior, she treated fans to the tune of Hello. I predict that Hellowill gather over 1 billion YouTube views within a year.

The one and only Adele is the meaning of greatness. While she was away she literally improved her vocal chords by undergoing throat surgery. Moreover, her mechanics have never been better.
What are your favorite Adele songs? I can’t listen to Someone Like You and Rolling In the Deep enough. Will you buy her new 25 album?
Just when you thought Sam Smith was the only one, Adele sends a timely reminder of her brilliance. Instantaneously, Hello has replaced Stay With Me. If Adele doesn’t win a Grammy in February, I don’t know what to tell you.
Right now, Adele can win any award she so desires. I know to call Adele’s music like J.K. Rowling’s books is a big stretch. But, both celebrities handle the media similarly.

After Harry Potter ran its course, J.K. Rowling kept her distance. And that’s the way I like it uh huh uh huh. The singer gave us precious songs, and then took a hiatus. Fans appreciate meticulous and talented individuals.
Like J.K., Adele created her own little world. Although the Set Fire to the Rain songstress doesn’t deviate from the standard, she sets the bar high. Her return to music has caused an earthquake in the industry.
Suddenly Rihanna, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry are back on their heels. I support perfect competition. And I’m a fan of expert performers.
Say what you want about Hollywood. But it’s where dreams come true. We are lucky Adele pursues her passion. Let’s give a warm welcome back to the Hometown Glory singer.

British Celebrities Ed Sheeran Elton John Entertainment exciting George Harrison Guru Jay Jamie Foxx John Legend John Lennon Justin Timberlake Music Sam Smith Singers Stevie Wonder Taylor Swift

How Ed Sheeran Became the Most Exciting Musician in the World

BY: GURU JAY

  
Ed Sheeran is the most exciting musician in the world right now. Some people think of Sheeran as the new and improved John Lennon. Imagine Sheeran were a Beatle replacing George Harrison 50 years ago.
Not only does Ed entertain audiences, he energizes, electrifies, and captivates crowds. Sheeran is like a mechanic whose main tool is an electric guitar. You see Sheeran’s dynamic pitch control helps define him as a music artist.
Not even 25 yet, Ed Sheeran directly impacts the music industry. Because the British born star is an incredible songwriter, he literally affects our listening experience. Did you know the celebrity wrote the songs: Moments, 18, and One Thing for One Direction?
Not to mention, Ed was the opening act for Taylor Swift’s Red Tour. Would you pay a hundred dollars to see that show? Nowadays, Sheeran is the main attraction wherever he goes.


Although Sheeran isn’t as famous as Swift, he’s just as good. Soon, he could become most popular if he makes the right decisions. Then again, who wants to deal with being a celebrity?

Going out and performing onstage doesn’t scare Sheeran like others. As terrific as Sam Smith may be, Ed shines brighter under the spotlight. Like Smith, the Thinking Out Loud singer seems passionate. Additionally, the musician’s style resembles that of Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder, and John Legend.

Entertainment extraordinaire Jamie Foxx was first to take the soulful artist under his wings. Foxx utilized his radio platform to promote Sheeran’s talent to millions. Music legend Elton John also mentored the young musician early on in the process. But it was Foxx, who was most instrumental in helping Sheeran receive a profitable record deal.

Estimates put Ed Sheeran’s net worth at approximately $16 million. However, this figure will keep growing. Ed Sheeran will probably be worth over $100 million by his 30thbirthday.

Beck Beyoncé Celebrities concerts Ed Sheeran Entertainment Grammys Guru Jay Hollywood Kanye West Katy Perry Lady Gaga Music One Direction Paul McCartney Pharrell Recap Rihanna Sam Smith Stay With Me

Relive the Grammys: Recap

BY: GURU JAY

Pharrell’s Happy performance highlighted the 57th annual Grammy Awards. The Voice judge and his minions commanded the onstage voyage. All the singing and dancing lifted our spirits. Who else clapped along with Pharrell?
The absence of music in this so-called ‘advanced’ yet divided world causes ruckus. In essence, music connects people better than technologies such as: Verizon, iPhones, Google, Facebook and Twitter. Please don’t underestimate Pandora and YouTube’s power. Music saves humanity from destruction.
When Beck won best album, I first thought billionaire David Geffen paid off the Academy. Beck is one of Geffen records’ prized assets. Were you stunned when Prince called Beck? I said to my friends, Prince is probably stoned and incorrectly read the card.
During the announcement, Kanye West teased Beck by pretending to takeaway his trophy. After the show ended, Fox News reported West verbally punched the musician and the Grammys. Kanye reiterated why Beyoncé deserved top honors.
West, Rihanna, and Paul McCartney put on a great performance. You can watch FourFiveSeconds on RihannaVevo. Frankly I’m pissed by the lack of respect this new generation gives to Paul McCartney. Paul and the Beatles paved the way for Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, One Direction, 5 Seconds of Summer and many more musicians and bands.

In addition, I enjoyed watching superstars Sam Smith and Mary J. Blige sing Stay With Me. Sunday night belonged to Sam Smith who gathered four Grammys. The Academy loves Lonely Hour because Smith poured his heart into the album. Also, Ed Sheeran’s Thinking Out Loud featuring John Mayer moved the crowd. The Grammys demonstrated why they are the best entertainment award show.
President Obama, who earned two Grammys, recorded a moving speech against domestic violence. Then, Katy Perry gave an emotional rendition of By the Grace of God. Finally, Beyoncé sang Take My Hand Precious Lord. Glory singers Common and John Legend concluded the night with a glorious recital.
The Grammys prove that music still contains a message. Even in a materialistic society, there are things more valuable than money. Love and Happiness are priceless.

English Music Royalties: Adele, Leona Lewis, and Sam Smith

Hollywood’s a town big enough for the both of us. Although show business seems cutthroat and ruthless, it still has a low barrier to entry. If you possess skills and talent, there’s a seat for you around Oprah Winfrey’s dining room table.
Advertising, merchandise, album, and ticket sales finance the entertainment industry. If you stay positive you’ll have massive appeal and lucrative royalty checks to show for it. In fact, royalties make up large portions of a celebrity’s paycheck.
Music Royalties
Beautiful music lyrics such as Sam Smith’s ‘Stay With Me’ and dynamic arrangements like Adele’s ‘Rolling in the Deep’ inspire my blogging. In the words of John Legend “My love” for music is “passed the infatuation phase.” There’s something extraordinary about the English sound of music.

Adele, Leona Lewis, and Sam Smith were ordinary people before becoming music royalties. They have singlehandedly transformed our listening experience with their hit singles. Whenever I listen to ‘Bleeding Love’ it stays stuck in my head for 48 hours.
Ladies and gentlemen, we’re witnessing legends in the making. Adele’s soaring popularity is on par with Katy Perry’s social media fame. Furthermore, Adele has created several staple songs capable of reaching billions, and lasting for generations to come.
TV, Radio, and the Internet
I’ll never forget this TV commercial that introduced me to Adele’s music. Moreover, I remember first listening to Leona Lewis on the radio. And, I found Sam Smith via a viral Internet video.
Music artists utilize multiple platforms to permeate their messages. Fortunately Adele, Leona, and Sam produce mainly positive and uplifting lyrics. Anyone with British background is greatly proud of these English music royalties. All three musicians connect with broad audiences and adorn genuine styles.
