Spoiler alert: If you plan on watching the Netflix series, Love Is Blind, but haven’t seen it yet, proceed with caution. First, I was suckered in by the influencer reality show, The Circle, on Netflix. Then came Love Is Blind. The premise of the show is several men and women get to potentially meet the […]
Mar1asol has a tough tenderness to her voice that immediately draws you in. Her angelic tone and confidence suggest she has several albums already under her belt.

Although it’s been three years since his debut album, 99.9%, his presence in the music in the music industry has extended well into the […]
