Mildred Fay Jefferson (April 6, 1927 – October 15, 2010). She was an American physician and political activist. The first black woman to graduate from Harvard Medical School, the first woman to graduate in surgery from Harvard Medical School and the first woman to become a member of the Boston Surgical Society.
The industry and fans alike are drooling over the success of the viral song Drivers License by 17 year old Olivia Rodrigo. Many are scratching their heads pondering phenomena.
What some call a phenomena, I call a pop moment. The well crafted catchy heart break single was performed by Olivia that played the LEAD CHARACTER on Disney’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Disney’s show has about 3 million viewers. Olivia’s preexisting fanbase helped propel the track. Let’s not forget Billie Eilish who tweeted advocating for the song and who also shares the same music label with Olivia – Interscope Records. Finally, you had a story swelling online about the song.
This is Olivia’s moment, probably won’t have another moment like this, but let’s see if she can knock another one out.
The comments that followed Britney Spears documentary blasted Justin Timberlake over his treatment of women, mainly Britney. It irked him so much that he apologized. He owned up that he benefited from white privilege in an instagram post which of course resulted in million of album sales and a successful career. That I can’t argue. Just look at The Weekends and the talented Bruno Mars Super Bowl half time performance, then look at Justin’s. It’s not hard to figure out who had a leg up.
Diplo has gone on offense after offending those around him for performing a Morgan Wallen song during his Super Bowl after-party DJ set.
The rising country singer Morgan Wallen has been banned & blacklisted in the music industry since he was caught on drunk on camera using the N-word with friends. He apologised, but the fallout continues.
Diplo wrote, “Heartless is a old song of mine thats been in my live set for years.
“Im sorry, I didn’t mean to make anyone mad or offended by playing a song featuring Morgan. It was by no means a Political statement or a message. Jason (Isbell) is doin the right thing, Im also donating my proceeds (sic).”
The former country singer broke the news that she re-recorded her 2008 album Fearless and will release the first single, “Love Story”
Swift said she would re-record the albums after her former music label Big Machine’s sold her masters to Scooter Braun’s Ithaca Holdings. Swift has an ongoing beef with Scooter Braun and made it well known through interviews and press releases.
Swift will re-record all six albums hoping the new album will overshadow old ones, hence sticking it to the investors.
