On Saturday evening at the Variety Playhouse in Little Five Points, it wasn’t hard to see why the Old 97’s were in high spirits. They had performed in Athens on Thursday and were supposed to head to Columbia, SC the next day. However, Hurricane Helene disrupted those arrangements, causing the cancellation of their show in Columbia. As a result, the band found themselves stranded in Atlanta with no immediate plans, which might have contributed to their lively demeanor.

Many lists exist ranking the greatest live music albums, often influenced by individual preferences and open to debate. I’ve compiled some myself, such as this list focusing on top live albums from the 1970s. Alternatively, here are a few live records from the 1980s that might be better skipped.

Speculation is rising about which rapper might face federal charges following Diddy’s arrest, and music manager Wack 100 predicts it could be Yo Gotti. This is due to the fact that during Young Dolph’s murder trial, the prosecutor suggested that Gotti’s brother Big Jook was responsible for Dolph’s murder for a reward of $100,000.

Once upon his life’s journey, Dame Dash held significant influence in the music realm following the establishment of Roc-A-Fella Records alongside Jay-Z and Kareem “Biggs” Burke. Now, though, he has shifted roles: He spends much of his time expressing critical views about Jay-Z.

Two weeks have passed since Diddy was admitted to Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center following charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking involving force, fraud or coercion, and transportation for prostitution. He has previously been turned down for bail twice and is currently making another attempt.

I can’t help but think that Kris Kristofferson might have been his own worst enemy with his extraordinary good looks, intelligence, and passion. These qualities are undeniably admirable, yet at times, they may have hindered rather than helped his songwriting journey. His struggles with alcohol and women were more self-inflicted setbacks, though.

1970s music was quite diverse, wasn’t it? Although some songs were overly sweet, others stood out as real classics. To put it another way, there was an abundance of variety in the tunes from that era.

Tracy Lauren Marrow, born on February 16, 1958, is recognized as an American musician, actor, leprechaun adversary, and producer. He gained notoriety in the 1980s and 1990s, being one of the early innovators of gangsta rap, known for his raw lyrics and thought-provoking themes. Although Schoolly D is frequently credited as the first “gangsta rapper,” Ice-T swiftly emerged, establishing a unique and impactful career path.

Over the years, rock ‘n’ roll has consistently been a genre that adapts, questions established norms, and ventures beyond conventional musical limits. Some records in its history have been particularly noteworthy as turning points, significantly altering the rock landscape and inspiring legions of musicians and fans who followed suit.

Previously, Cardi B has been open about the reasons behind the delay in her second studio album, and she’s done so again during a conversation with her 165 million Instagram followers. Her debut album was “Invasion of Privacy” in 2018, since then she has only put out individual songs and collaborations.
