Justin Timberlake “Selfish”

Justin Timberlake is BACK and ready to rule in 2024.

He just released his new sing;e “Selfish”, and it’s perfect, catchy pop, and I’m sure it’s ging to be a huge hit.

Yep, can totally here a #1 in there.

I mean, it’s Justin Timberlake.

Also, he’s still got it going ON. He was always my favorite of all the boy band guys… he has the looks, talent, and a hell of a sense of humor, and it clearly has served him well.

To be fair, nothing will ever beat this gem:

Pure freaking GOLD>

Justin’s new album “Everything I Thought I Was” will be released sometime this year. Still waiting on that release date- although with “Tonight Show” and “SNL” appearances this week, I’m sure we’ll know soon!

I am so excited for 2024 music-wise, and we are just getting started!

Justin Timberlake Debuts New Song at The Orpheum!

First off, I have always been and will always be #TeamNSYNC.

That being said, I’ve always loved Justin Timberlake. Not just because he hails from Memphis, TN, which is close to where I grew up, but also he’s incredibly talented, funny as hell, and has major sex appeal. Basically, he checks all the entertainer boxes.

He did a one-off show at The Orpheum in Memhis this past Friday, and debuted his first new song in a while called “Selfish”.

The video and audio isn’t the best, but it’s all I can find.

Ok, so it’s not the deepest of songs lyrically, and the use of the word “boo” is kind of overkill at his age, but it IS catchy, and his voice sounds amazing as always.

 

Also, I found this video of Justin jamming to a song called “No Angels” which I’m assuming is an unreleased track?

Now THAT song- from what I could make out- sounds awesome. I really hope he releases it soon. It has “Sexyback” vibes for sure.
I can definitely see this being a bit radio hit.

I’m thinking Justin is poised for some big stuff in 2024, especially as he has booked a “Tonight Show” appearance for this upcoming week, as well as a Musical Guest spot on SNL this upcoming Saturday night.

He also announced his new album “Everything I Thought I Was”, but no release date set as of yet. Hopefully we’ll find out during one of his appearances this week.

Stay tuned!

Megan Moroney “No Caller ID”

Megan Moroney is one of my favorite new artists on the Country scene. She’s got a unique, smoky voice that you don’t hear on the radio these days, as well as mad songwriting skills and smokeshow looks to complete the total package.

She burst onto the airwaves last year with her #1 debut single “Tennessee Orange” and she shows no signs of being a one-hit wonder.

Megan just released a new song yesterday, and it’s another great one- something ALL women (and guysm too, I’m sure) can releate to, as we all have been there.

It’s called “No Caller ID” and it’s really, really good.

I just love how the song flows, and the lyrics are spot on, as again, most of us have been there a time or two. Or three. Whatever.

If you haven’t checked out Megan’s highly lauded debut album “Lucky”, you need to get on that now. You won’t be dissapointed.

Also, Megan is hitting the road this Summer with Kenny Chesney on his stadium tour, which will only raise her profile more.

Luke Grimes Live Version of “Burn”

Well, color me impressed.

Luke Grimes- best known as the actor who portrays Kayce Dutton in “Yellowstone” is making quite the name for himself in the Country Music world, which is even further solidified with his live version of “Burn” during a recent Spotify Outside Session.

Check this out:

I love the simplicity of his music, which a good bit of it he has written or co-written.

If you haven’t heard the studio verison, here you go:


So, so good.

All of his music sounds like it could be featured on he “Yellowstone” soundtrack- and some of it is!

Luke’s debut EP “Pain Pils or Pews” is out now, and you get get more info and dates at http://lukegrimes.com

Luke Combs Unreleased Song “The Man He Sees In Me”

 

Luke Conbs seems to be making a habit of posting unreleased songs on socials these days, and hey, I’m not mad at it! He just posted this song he wrote with his friend Josh Phillips called “The Man He Sees in Me”, and it’s, of course, perfect.


Personally, I am loving the “Dad Songs” Luke is putting out these days. It’s where he’s at in life with two litle boys under two.  That’s what Country Music is supposed to be- life. And this is where he’s at in life, and I’m in the same place. Except, obviously not a dad.  But the song makes me think of my husband and father of my 2 year-old son, and I know Brandon already thinks his Daddy hung the moon, and I hope he never thinks otherwise.

I can’t wait for more Luke in 2024.

Honestly, I am really loving the direction Country Music is headed…

Ariana Grande “Yes, And?”

Ariana Grande just released her highly anticipated new single “Yes, And?” and it’s a mix between Madonna’s “Express Yourself” and Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way”.

Basically, it’s a total pop anthem, catchy as hell, and it’s been in my head all morning.

So, it’ll probably be a massive hit. Earworms usually are.

I wish she showed off more vocals, as she does have one of the most incredible voices, but hey, we all know she can sing, so might as well do what she wants at this point.

Also, the music video is totally giving Paula Abdul’s “Cold-Hearted Snake” vibes:

 

Pretty cool, right?

Here’s Paula’s “Cold Hearted Snake” video from 1989:

Uncanny, right?

What do you think of Ariana’s new single?

I don’t totally hate it, which means I’ll freaking love it in two months.

 

Jennifer Lopez “Can’t Get Enough”

Jennifer Lopez just dropped a new single today, and you know what? It’s super fun.

I honestly haven’t been a fan of her music lately, but her new song is catchy and fun, and the video is great!

It kind of pokes fun at her multiple marriages and relationships, and I throuroughly enjoyed watching it.

Also, how the hell is she in her fifties? Good genes? Good doctors? Both?

Who cares. Woman is KILLING it, as always!


I think this may be the perfect restart to her music career. Just an all-around feel-good song.

Go JLo!

Side note: I used to work at the place that she married Ben Affleck at. The estate is located on Hampon Island in Riceboro, GA, where I used to work in the equestrian department in 2007-2009. I got to go to the house once, and even met Ben a few times.

I kid you not.

Super nice guy, and I’m happy for him and Jennifer.

Best of luck to them both! They deserve it.

Gabby Barrett and Miranda Lambert Collab on “You’re My Texas”

Gabby Barrett is gearing up for the release of her new album, and is getting you ready by putting out her collab with Miranda Lambert “You’re My Texas”.

Now, sadly, Miranda doesn’t lend her vocals to the track, but she did co-write the song with Gabby and Hillary Lindsey, and you can hear Miranda’s hand in it for sure!


Gabby will release her new album “Chapter and Verse” which comes out February 2nd.

I’m thinking that’s it’s going to be another big year for Country Music!

Lessssggggooooo.

Megan Moroney “What Are You Listening To?”

One of my favorite newer artists on the Country Music scene is Megan Moroney.  A great singer/songwriter, she’s definitely been making some well-deserved waves in Nashville lately. This morning, she released a cover of Chris Stapleton’s “What Are You Listening To?” which she recently performed live, and it’s really, really good.


I absolutely love her smoky, alto voice, and her self-proclamed “Emo Cowgirl” vibe, and she’s teasing more new music in 2024.

Bring it, girl!

Also, she will be sharing the stage with Kenny Chesney on his Stadium Tour this Summer, alomg with The Zac Brown Band and Uncle Kracker, which is sure to up her profile even more.

Jelly Roll Releases “Halfway to Hell” as His Next Radio Single

Jelly Roll is on a roll (I got dad jokes today) and there’s no slowing it down.

He’s dominating Country, Rock, and now Top 40 Charts, and his next single to Country Radio “Halfway to Hell” has total #1 vibes to it.


Isn’t that catchy? It’s on his debut Country album “Whitsitt Chapel”, which has already spawned several #1 hits, including his last one “Save Me” which he shared vocals with Lainey Wilson.

Ya’ll, like it or not, Jelly Roll is just getting started.
