GRAMMY Nominated Robert Randolph Is Up for Best Contemporary Blues Album for Got Soul CBS Saturday Morning got a taste of soul music with Robert Randolph and the Family Band. This past Friday the band made a visit to the CBS studios in New York before heading to Madison Square Garden on Sunday for the GRAMMYs. I personally love this decision by the CBS production team. The producers picked one of the best musicians touring the Untied States to stop by their studio and perform live tracks from their album Got Soul. Tour Dates: 03/07 | New Orleans, LA |

MGMT Set to Release ‘Little Dark Age’ on February 9

A Melodrama Form of Music from MGMT MGMT is releasing a new album titled Little Dark Age on February 9 via Colombia Records. As the band matures, their sound and style evolves along with them. Their 2007 release Oracular Spectacular was an excellent form of music. Since that album I have been underwhelmed with their tone and style of studio music. In contrast, their live performances have improved. People have criticized their live performances, but after reviewing footage of their Bonnaroo 2009 set via a fan's smartphone, I have to say the performance doesn't look that bad. People often argue about

CNN Makes Millions of Dollars Each Year in Net Profit, But Drops Beme and Casey Neistat

The Cross Section Between Independent Journalism and Corporate Media How many of the journalists that have reviewed the CNN departure from Beme ever startup a successful company? My guess is close to zero. As an independent journalist that has been reporting news with this outlet, in addition to working a full time job, I can say that Casey Neistat may have not been successful long-term with Beme, but at least he took the time to create something organic and attempted to work with corporate media. That is saying a lot more than most journalists. When I review the amount of
