It's been a hot one this week, ladies and germs. I'll cool you off with some of this week's music headlines.
It wouldn't be Friday without Rebecca Black, right? RIGHT?
Bette Midler accuses Lady Gaga of plagiarism. Lay off her, Bette. She was born this way.
Katy Perry has been nominated for nine MTV VMA awards. This just in, the VMAs are newsworthy?
What songs make you cry?
Rihanna is doing her best Ke$ha impersonation.
Happy 64th birthday to Don Henley. Let's hang a little "Dirty Laundry."
J-Lo and Marc Anthony split this week. How the universe hasn't crashed down upon us is one of life's biggest mysteries.
Ja Rule to live it up in jail for the next 28 months.
Weird Al disappointed over lagging album sales. Is Coolio returning his calls yet?
Avril Lavigne has a pizza named after her. I wonder if the pizza is overrated and has no substance, as well.
Guilty Pleasure Song of the Week
Willa Ford - "I Wanna Be Bad"
Willa has since hung up her microphone, and apparently her clothes, as she has taken it off for Playboy and two movies. I can safely say I prefer her post-music career, but that's just me.

Summer Solstice Songs
I'm not sure where you are reading this blog from, but it is downright tropical out by me. As of this writing, it is 79 muggy degrees and overcast, with a good chance of rain. I might as well be living in the Amazon Basin.
I really don't feel like accomplishing anything outside, and neither should you. So stay inside, and add some of these new tracks to your iPod or MP3 player.
Pop
Bad Meets Evil - "Lighters" (ft. Bruno Mars) (NSFW)
The new craze in hip-hop music is to balance out hard-hitting verses with Bruno Mars's dulcet tones in the chorus. Hey, it worked for B.o.B.
Iyaz - "Pretty Girls" (ft. Travie McCoy)
I do hope Iyaz can find a pretty girl in this city. If not, he'll have to go solo.
"Weird Al" Yankovic - "Perform This Way"
I would be remiss if I didn't post Weird Al's new Lady Gaga parody. Is it cheesy? Of course. Is it funny? Of course.
Country
Brad Paisley - "Remind Me" (ft. Carrie Underwood)
I can't help it. I'm a sucker for some Carrie Underwood. Mike Fisher is pretty smitten as well.
Alan Jackson - "Long Way to Go"
A little bit of rockabilly twang from Alan Jackson here. Just some fun music to listen to on a boat after a few too many Coronas.
David Bradley - "Hard Time Movin' On" (ft. Rodney Crowell)
Plenty of people can relate to a song like this. For example, I have a hard time movin' on from the 1997 World Series...Ugh!!!
Rock
311 - "Sunset in July"
When summertime hits, 311 is my go-to band to not only listen to, but to see in concert. I've seen them four times, but, unfortunately, they aren't coming to my neck of the woods in 2011.
Hollywood Undead - "Been to Hell" (NSFW)
Huh. I kind of thought nu metal went by the wayside around 2003. But Hollywood Undead has quite a following, so who am I to be a curmudgeon?
Staind - "The Bottom"
Wait. Staind came out with some hard-edged music? This is a pleasant change from the utter crap they've released since 2001 (one man's opinion).
