You better watch out because Popular Music: The Podcast is BACK with an all-new episode all about the great Ms. Lauryn Hill. Omar will tell you all about how this A+ student found her path to music at a very young age and Analise will tell you why this song is a perfect blend of 50s and 90s. Also some music theory nerdry happens. What can we say? This song just DOES it for us.

You can’t talk about rock ‘n’ roll without the inventor of Rock ‘n’ Roll herself, Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Omar and Analise spare no ounce of love and respect to talk about the importance of the legendary guitarist and gospel artist whose influence has stretched to nearly EVERY modern artist from Little Richard (her young Padawan) to Brittany Howard.

We are slowing things down and going back in time farther than ever before to celebrate our 150th episode. This week we're chatting about Billie Holiday's You Go To My Head, how the artist formed her music career, how the song found its way into her hands and how this piece of music has gone on to be a jazz standard. Take a seat, relax and let this episode go to your head.

We're sitting down and talking about one of our favorite songs of all time, Marvin Gaye's Whats's Going On. Pull up a chair, make yourself comfortable and let's discuss the early life of the famed musician, the context that lead to What's Going On being such a resonant hit and how the Detroit Lions became involved.

If you don’t wanna see us podcasting with somebody...DON’T START NOW. It’s 2020 and a new Dua Lipa is on the horizon, so by popular demand, we’ve decided to delve right into the infectious, discopop ear-worm that is her song “Don’t Start Now.” Omar will tell you everything you need to know about Dua and why she’s a pop prodigy, and Analise will break down the lyrics while discussing what makes a great ‘kiss off’ song.

We're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. After last week's NICE LIST it's time to put some coal in some stockings and talk about some tracks that we're about to diss. These are holiday songs are our personal not-favorites. The yuletide earworms, the specters of the December radio, and the songs that we wish we wake up and hear no more a la Scrooge on Christmas morning. Everything from deep cut classics to some contemporary hits that hit us right in the feels. But not the good feels.

Keep in mind, this is all for fun and we wish everyone a very happy holidays.

HEY SIS, IT’S CHRISTMAS! Omar and Analise begin this month’s theme: JINGLE JAMS by making a list and checking it twice with their picks for holiday songs that made the cut for the NICE LIST! These are holiday songs are our personal favorites. The ones that tug at our heartstrings, remind us of the true spirit of the holiday season, and connect us to the kid within ourselves. We bring up everything from classics from Stevie Wonder and Donny Hathaway to the royalty that is RuPaul. And Omar tells a story from his childhood that may just make you openly weep yes it’s that touching.
