by Dr. Eunice Moseley

"Thank you good Dr.," said three-time Billboard Chart-Topping Robin Simone to me after her almost two-hour performance with her 18-piece orchestra, The Robin Simone Hollywood Orchestra, which was led by the very animated conductor Charley Harrison.

I went to her full-house show to review her performance for my column, and I walked away saying, "This was a million-dollar show." In fact, the doorman introduced me to the owner's wife once he found out I was there to review the orchestra and that is what I told her when she asked how I liked my experience; I said Robin Simone's orchestra is worth a million dollars. She said, "Yes, there are really good."

Vocally impressive with her range and tone, Robin Simone took the audience through a history lesson of classic movie tunes. She even interacted with her audience asking them their favorite Broadway tunes and then performed... <Read the full August 19, 2025 column here...>

"He said he wanted to give me a key to the city," said two-time Grammy winning Gospel legend Hezekiah Walker when I asked how he learned that he was going to be honored with a key to the city of New York. "I was actually at home when I got a call from the Mayor's Office. I thought it was about a show, they put on shows around the city, so I thought he wanted me to do a show."

When blessings rain on you, sometimes it pours.

"I think this has only happened to Elvis Presley and Barbra Streisand," he said excitedly. "All these major people. I am like, ‘are you serious?' He (Mayor Eric Adams) said, Yes!' and I became the only Gospel artist to get a key to New York City."

As we talked about his many accolades Bishop Hezekiah Walker said sincerely, "When it comes to your honor coming from your home folks... (it means more)."

That is not the only recent honor God rained down on Hezekiah for his contribution not only to the Word of God, but the genre of Gospel music. Virginia Union University built the Hezekiah Walker Center for Gospel Music. The Virginia university, an historically black university (HBCU), also made him the... <Read the full August 15, 2025 column here...>

Erykah Badu and The Alchemist Make Music History With 'Abi & Alan' Album, Premiering It During Exclusive U.S. Tour

(Dallas, TX) - In an unprecedented move that's set to revolutionize how music is released, powerhouse producer and sonic vanguard Erykah Badu and legendary Hip-Hop producer The Alchemist premiered their collaborative album "Abi & Alan" exclusively during their live tour before the album hit streaming platforms. This groundbreaking approach marks what is believed to be a music industry first.

The "Abi & Alan Luv Is Tour" gave audiences the exclusive opportunity to experience the entire album performed live by Badu and The Cannabinoids before its official release on August 29, 2025. This marks what is believed to be the first time in music history that an artist has chosen to debut their album during live concerts rather than through traditional release channels.

SPOTLIGHT of THE WEEK

"MAROON 5" 
  
maroon5.jpg
(Los Angeles, CA) - Three-time Grammy Award winning Diamond-certified band Maroon 5 proudly release their highly anticipated eighth studio album, "Love Is Like" (Interscope).

To accompany the new album, the band will embark on a national U.S. arena tour that will kick off this fall (please see full tour routing below). Tickets are on sale now. The 23-date Live Nation promoted run will visit major markets coast to coast, including a hometown show at Los Angeles' Kia Forum and a stop at New York City's iconic Madison Square Garden, before concluding on November 25 in Detroit, MI. Claire Rosinkranz will be direct support on all tour dates.

To mark the album's release, the band has also unveiled the music video for the standout title track, "Love Is Like," featuring Hip-Hop legend Lil Wayne. The new single delivers a dynamic and high-energy anthem complimented by Lil Wayne's distinctive flow. Accompanying the track is a playful music video directed by Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, Tyla) that follows the band through a whirlwind day on the streets of New York City.

Maroon 5 first previewed their new album with the infectious lead single "Priceless," a collaboration with LISA of Blackpink, which brought together two global Pop stars whose voices are known & loved by generations of fans around the world. Billboard called the track "a major pop crossover moment" while Rolling Stone proclaimed it an "infectious pop song". The song climbed to No. 4 on the Hot AC chart, earning Maroon 5 their 28th Top 10 at Hot AC-second all-time only to Taylor Swift-and extending their streak of most Top 10s for a duo or group in chart history. The stylish music video for the track was directed by Aerin Moreno.

The band followed with the magnetic single "All Night," accompanied by a vibrant 80s-inspired music video which saw Behati Prinsloo Levine take her husband's place at center stage, backed by the full band, including Adam Levine on saxophone. Most recently, Maroon 5 released "California," a stripped-back and nostalgic track led by warm acoustics and subtle production.

"Love is Like" marks a return-to-form for the Diamond-Certified group and their first LP since 2021's JORDI. With their new music the group highlights their roots, while subtly expanding their sound on their newly released magnetic single "All Night". The track spotlights Adam Levine's rhythmic vocal hooks, layered over bass, percussion, synths, and saxophone. To herald in the album's release, Maroon 5 kicked off the month with a performance live from Rockefeller Plaza as part of the Citi Concert Series on TODAY. The band is also set to perform at iHeart's Las Vegas Music Festival on September 19th.

Maroon 5 hold the record for "most #1's on the Hot 100 this century by a duo or group," the Pop Airplay record for the "most #1 hits among pop duos or groups" with 11, and the record for "most #1 hits on Adult Pop Airplay" with 15.
