If Madonna ever listened to what other people said she should do, she would probably still be in Michigan somewhere, wishing she would have pursued her dream of becoming a dancer. But Madonna always follows her own boat — and she has been loved and hated for it for 35 years. However, her reinvention as […]

Since the release of the Apple Watch Series 3, Apple’s smartwatch has been the go-to wrist device.

David Phelan of Forbes notes that the Watch sold 8 […]

The MacBook Air was one of the most groundbreaking laptops of the past decade.

However, that may not be the case. According […]

The critics seem to have it out for Justin Timberlake, no matter how hard he tries. It’s safe to say that whether deserved or not, the rollout for his album Man of the Woods has been somewhat of a disaster. First, there is the album itself, which has earned, for the most part, poor reviews. […]

The Apple Watch may be the hottest smartwatch on the market. But some companies are taking their apps off the smartwatch.

It’s hard to stay relevant in the music industry. U2 has stayed on top of the music industry probably longer than any act today. They ruled the 1980s, most of the 1990s, and the 2000s.

With the exception of great ticket sales for U2’s recent the Joshua Tree Tour 2017, the band has had a difficult time since the release of Songs of Innocence in 2014.

Joe Biden was considering running for President in 2020. But after the #MeToo movement, it seems as if Democrats are distancing themselves from him.

However, in a post-Weinstein […]
