Gwen Stefani 'This Is What the Truth Feels Like' Review: Junk Mail
here was a good bit of potential on this album -- the power and poppy punch of "Make Me Like You," "Misery" and "Used to Love You" proved that. But, once you moved away from the teaser tracks (and album standout "Truth," which should be the next single), there wasn't much here. But, even if the results were a little mixed, I will say it's nice to hear Gwen writing from an honest place again. -
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 'This Unruly Mess I've Made' Album Review Video: Junk Mail

Gwen Stefani, Gavin Rossdale Divorce Caused by Nanny Cheating Scandal?
Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale's divorce earlier this year shocked the alt-rock world earlier this year, but if new reports are to be believed, the split was a longtime coming.

5 Seconds of Summer 'Sounds Good Feels Good' Album Review: Junk Mail
5 Seconds of Summer is still trying to find the balance between pop and punk, but Sounds Good Feels Good demonstrates good growth for this Aussie foursome. Lyrically, this album is far more mature than the band's self-titled debut and these guys still know how to craft a good hook. Now, they just need to break away from that "boy band" stigma and they can potentially usher an era of rock back onto the charts. -

Nicki Minaj, Miley Cyrus Feud: 'Anaconda' Rapper Tells VMAs Host to Consider Black Women
The riff between Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus at the 2015 MTV VMAs wasn't just real, it's still not over. In a new interview with The New York Times magazine, the "Anaconda" rapper once again calls out this year's VMAs host for appropriating black culture without understanding "what's bothering" black women. -
Avicii 'Stories' Album Review: Junk Mail
Avicii expanded his musical palate on Stories. He helped change the pop conscious in 2013 by fusing EDM and country (though Rednex "Cotton Eye Joe" was a pioneer). Now he continues that trend with tracks like "City Lights" and "Broken Arrows," but also builds on that with more hip-hop, reggae and disco influenced songs. There are definite future hits in here that will join "Waiting For Love" on the radio, but as an album it can get a little messy and was slightly top-heavy. -
Fetty Wap Debut Album Review: Junk Mail
Fetty Wap is a proven hitmaker, but it seems as though he kept it in his comfort zone for his debut album. If you've heard him on the radio at all (and you have), then you've basically heard all of this album. Wap needs to prove that he can break outside of that box if he wants to maintain relevancy a la the rap greats. Otherwise, he'll be the next to check into the "Holidae Inn" in the sky. -

Junk Mail: The Libertines 'Anthems for Doomed Youth' Album Review
The Libertines brought that familiar blend in to Anthems for Doomed Youth, doing what they did best just doing it 11 years later. This album felt like magnificent continuity in to what Up the Bracket and The Libertines established all those years ago. While age may have not been the best remedy for Barat and Doherty's vocals, their chemistry is still palpable and just there's nothing better out there. Will this be remembered as a classic like The Libertines? Probably not. But we're damn lucky to have this album. -

Junk Mail: Luke Bryan 'Kill the Lights' Album Review
Time to "Kick the Dust Up," turn it up, up, etc. We're here to review Luke Bryan's Kill the Lights. Bryan is arguably the biggest name in mainstream country right now, and he's carrying the torch of what some like to call "bro country." On this, his fifth studio album, Bryan does what he does best: he brings heavy basslines, big drums and a voice heavily rooted in a Southern accent to songs about finding love and partying in cornfields. -
