The Purple Girl Wonder

Alicia Keys dropped a video for her new single, “Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart,” this week…

Beyonce x Lady Gaga: The New Ebony & Ivory

Beyonce dropped the “Video Phone” video this week finally… Umm, wow. Oh, and Lady Gaga is in it too… or so people have been saying. I didn’t see her but watch for yourself below.

This Single Handedly Brought Me Back…

like a pair of paddles in the ER… or like The Wrestler did for Mickey Rourke. I have been meaning to blog for weeks now but I have been busy with freelance ish, the dog, the wife… I have been busying living. Anywho, when I saw this video today I knew at some point within the next 24 hours I would be back to blogging. It’s just that genius.

Be Back Soon…

A Month of Sundays

*I love/hate that saying*

It has been a minute since the last time I blogged (to say the least). My bad but things have been busy, busy, busy for Team Hall. Check out what I have been up to…

This Just Makes Me Feel Better

I have been gone longer than expected. Apologies but more on that in a later post. After having a day of back-to-back-to-back-to-back deadlines (one of which I am briefly detouring from to post this), I needed something fun to lift my spirits. Leave it to G4’s Attack Of The Show to do just that with their Around The Net segment. Enjoy this little homage to Stanley Kubrick’s 2001 A Space Odyssey.

“Black Dynamite” Goes Boom

Thank you God for Black Dynamite. OK, that might be a bit much but check out this trailer and tell me that the Michael Jai White (yes, of Spawn “fame”) flick doesn’t look awesome!

Melanie Fiona x SOB’s

*Not from last night's show*

I went to check out SRC/Universal recording artist Melanie Fiona last night at New York’s SOB’s…

I Drink To Artistry

Ahh, music and liquor. It’s what every journalist dreams about. I know I am not the only one. So, when the two come together it can be magic — witness the Hennessy Artistry series. And while I don’t drink the “brown juice,” the line-up for the cognac’s fourth annual edition music event is one I can toast to. Want to know who’s performing? Here’s a hint: the photo above.

I Missed The BBQ

So, apparently there have been a lot of “industry” BBQs and picnics this summer and being the Jersey boy that I am I have missed all of them. I suck… I know. That said, I did want to show some love to the ladies of The 135th St Agency by posting a few pics from their 3rd Annual 135th St Agency BBQ.
