Charlotte Sands releases the uptempo pop rocker Special. You’ll like if you love the 2000’s pop punk emo scene and some of the electro pop contemporary artists.
“This is a song about a guy I was seeing who, immediately after telling me how ‘special’ I was, told me that he didn’t want to date me and that we should just be friends. I drove home that night and started to realize how many times I had been called “special” over the years by guys that ended up not wanting to be in a relationship with me, and I wrote “I’m so sick of being special” in my notes” shares Charlotte Sands

Pat The Manager served his former artist Chance The Rapper a million dollar lawsuit for breach of contract back in December . Now, Chance The Rapper cameback with a lawsuit of his own and is suing Pat The Manager.
Pat The Manager claimed he was entitled to 15% of net profits from the rappers merch, tours, song streams, and endorsements. Chance and his lawyers do not deny that in their lawsuit, but they did say the manager isn’t owed millions. The rapper claims the former manager abandoned his management responsibilities, delegated his responsibilities to his employees so he could spend more time pursuing his own separate interests and other businesses.
Overall, Chance is suing Pat The Manager for breach of contract and is asking for at least $1 million. The lawsuit mirror the million dollar lawsuit the manager served the rapper. This is a “you serve me, I’ll serve you scenario”. This will be up to the court now. Pat The Manager has denied the allegations, and called the claims baseless.
Watch out for Chloe Gilligan and the new track Front Porch. It’s a piano ballad that shares the same vibe as Justin Bieber’s Lonely.
“Front Porch is about a perfect, rainy, whimsical birthday kiss I had on my twenty-second birthday. I wanted the song to really match the feeling of being whisked away in this unexpected moment. The classical guitar strumming combined with a haunting piano really set this perfect scene for a forbidden romantic moment at midnight in the pouring rain” shares Chloe.
She released her debut her EP Erase August in 2019 and was selected to play SXSW Festival. She performed at the Sundance Film Festival, and had song placements in the CW series All American. Give the song a stream on KOAR’s Indie Invaders Playlist.
Sojourner Truth (1797 – November 26, 1883) was an American abolitionist and women’s rights activist. Truth was born into slavery in Swartekill, New York, but escaped with her infant daughter to freedom in 1826.
She gave herself the name Sojourner Truth in 1843 after she became convinced that God had called her to leave the city and go into the countryside “testifying the hope that was in her”. Her best-known speech was delivered extemporaneously, in 1851, at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio. The speech became widely known during the Civil War by the title “Ain’t I a Woman?”, a variation of the original speech re-written by someone else using a stereotypical Southern dialect, whereas Sojourner Truth was from New York and grew up speaking Dutch as her first language.
A memorial bust of Truth was unveiled in 2009 in Emancipation Hall in the U.S. Capitol Visitor’s Center. She is the first African American woman to have a statue in the Capitol building. In 2014, Truth was included in Smithsonian magazine’s list of the “100 Most Significant Americans of All Time”
