Who hasn’t thought about a strategy for if/when zombies start infecting the world? It seems like a pretty normal conversation, no? MT was cool enough to come by our studio to talk about how they would fair in The Hunger Games and their emergency plan for if there’s a zombie apocalypse.
Justin Bieber is performing at the Billboard Music Awards this Sunday and decided to throw us one by releasing a viddy of him rehearsing “Boyfriend.” We also talk about Will Smith slapping a Ukrainian reporter in the face and a party trick that involves a beer can and a chainsaw.
I think we’ve all had a few crappy incidents involving an airline. That’s why we were happy to discover that even recording artists are susceptible to airline incompetence. T-Mills tells us all about his scare at the airport and his genius plot to get it back. Subscribe to andPOP for new episodes of Making Waves every week!
Today is filled with lessons. Kids learn all about Skrillex, Mac Lethal teaches us about the difference between your and you’re and Brittany learns how to properly pronounce dougie (she says it with an Australian accent).
Sometimes an artist is so popular it’s hard to get them to do an interview in a major market like Toronto. Luckily, here at andPOP we don’t take NO for an answer. So we decided to take a road trip and ask him about going to the club and who pays the bills when he goes out. He also talks about how he signed his new artist Tyler Medieros. GO CANADA!
If you’re looking for something to do tonight, why not try Skillex: The Boardgame. It tests both your music knowledge and ability to withstand physical pain. Then we talk about the lazy eye epidemic that’s plaguing teens with emo hair. Finally, we wrap up by watching the best/worst trailer in the world, Jersey Shore Shark Attack.
Every kid has a way to make a few dollars when they’re young. The difference is not many kids are hustlers at the age of nine. Jeezy was one of those unique kids that knew he was destine for big things at a very young age. Ironically, even before he became a famous rapper he always had money. Lots of money. The only thing we’re wondering is how do you gauge success when you’re already rich?
We really like Dragonette, they’re a fantastic combination of all kinds of good stuff. They seamlessly combine their own brand of pop with dance music. It’s a fantastic pick-me-up if fever you find yourself in an emergency ‘need to dance’ situation. We asked Martina Sorbara about how she and the rest of the band found their sonic DNA.
Justin Bieber basically wins best son in the world for dedicating a number one track to his mom for Mother’s Day. How do we top that? We also ogle at other celebs with their moms and watch an adorbz video of a young toddler in love, but he just can’t catch a break.
In the second instalment of our new series “Making Waves” Caity talks to Classified about how smoking weed helps him creatively. Class also recalls the olympics and introduces us to a new artist he’s working with.
Nina Dobrev stopped by Conan and made him her human yoga wall — this resulted in the host doing a victory lap around the studio. We also talk about Nicki Minaj and her two biggest fans and finally watch a video about what else? Cute puppies.
The title of Diggy Simmons’ new album raises a few questions. Luckily, he reassured us it has nothing to do with accidental pregnancies. Diggy talked about how the name has more to do with his hip-hop pedigree than a good old game of “just the tip” backfiring. Was that too much?
One Direction told andPOP if they had to choose a sixth member of the band they’d choose Ed Sheeran! Find out what Ed Sheeran had to say about that here. We also watch a video of Jon Hamm giving advice to 16-year-old girls (it’s not creepy we promise) and sympathize with a very unlucky couple.
Class is now in session. The man who we’re now calling “Professor Jeezy” is well versed in making money, counting money and what to do once you have lots of money. In one of our most inspiring and hilarious interviews to date we go to the school of hard knocks and talk about cash. Just after we finished with Jeezy he invited @Jordans_life to play with $100,000 but they wouldn’t let us take the video cameras! Needless to say, we’re all big fans of Young Jeezy here at andPOP.
Ed Sheeran and One Direction in THE SAME INTERVIEW. If you’re a fan of these two particular acts you might want to sit down. We asked One Direction about who they would want to be their 6th member and they seemed to think Ed would be a good fit. So when we got the chance to talk to him we thought it was only fitting to ask about whether or not it’s a possibility!
It seems a lot of people are trying to get their hands on Ed Sheeran these days. His album + is doing incredible things internationally and his fans like the music so much they’re screaming the words to his songs. Not that it’s a bad thing but it must hurt the ears a little. We share this enthusiasm for Ed and his music. In fact, he also likes us. Did you know @andPOP is his favourite website? True story!
If there was actually a way to harvest and bottle happiness, Martina Sorbara would be a good place to start. Not only is she an incredibly wonderful person to interview, Dragonette’s music could be used as an anti-depressant. In this interview @jordans_life and Martina talk about their newest music video and getting “her mojo” back.
Remember that time Hot Chelle Rae convinced @Jordans_life to get a tattoo? Well since it happened, he’s been having troubles adjusting to the monkey holding a bottle of vodka on his leg (remember tattoos are permanent). Truthfully, the tattoo isn’t that bad but he’s still upset none of the guys in HCR opted to join him. So to make things right, @DCaseyJones decided to get revenge for Jordan with some temporary Disney tattoos. It’s the thought that counts right?
In the latest instalment of our interview with Dev we try to figure out how she and The Cataracs keep banging out hit records. Including one particular single that happens to feature one of the prettiest men of our generation. Dev and @jordans_life discuss the recording process and what it was like shooting a video with Enrique “man-pretty” Iglaseas.
After meeting Ed Sheeran we realized that outside of music he’s actually quite funny. Inside that beautiful red cranium is a wonderland of kittens, jokes, Lego and most importantly music. Like any true artist he’s also a little weird but in the best kind of way. We discovered this part of his personality when he answered a question about his dreams that a fan submitted through our twitter (@andPOP). It turns out when he’s sleeping, all those kittens and lego can turn into some really crazy stuff! Do you have a recurring dream? Tweet it at us!
