• Exposé Brings 30 Years of Girl Power to the Stage as They Dip Back Into the '80s With a Brand New Generation of Fans

    So many great girl groups have come and gone over the years, but long before Fifth Harmony, Destiny's Child and even En Vogue took their turn as Billboard's hottest acts, there was Exposé. While Gioia Bruno, Ann Curless and Jeanette Jurado may have been first put together by a producer way back in 1985, they cemented their place in the record books pretty quickly. Their debut album Exposure first dropped in 1987, and they became the very first group in history to have four top ten singles from a debut effort, beating out legendary acts like The Supremes and even The Beatles. Exposé also became the first girl group in history to have seven back-to-back top ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100.

    Drake has surprised the music world by releasing a new album on iTunes last night. The most recent representative in the surprise-album market is 'If You're Reading This It's Too Late,' a somewhat snarky title taking aim at the way in which it was released. This comes on the heels of yesterday's news that the emcee had released a 14-minute film titled 'Jungle,' which features a rather depressive Drake reflecting on his current status, plus archival footage of his life in Toronto. We can't comment as of yet if this mood carries over to the new album.
