Comparing Artists
In this article I am going to compare Queen, My Chemical Romance, and Eminem. I know what you are thinking, what do they have in common? The three things they have in common are that they are the best at their particular Genre, and I will argue one of them is the best ever in any genre. Two is that all have a song or songs that everyone knows, and the songs will definitely be remembered long after they are gone. Finally, number three is that they each have a song that has many beat or musical changes in them that you swear you are listening to two or three different songs in one. I am also going to talk about each of their records. One stands above the rest in this category.

Getting to know music artist Stevvon Valentino
My name is Stevvon Valentino, and I am from the west side of Chicago, Illinois, born and raised. My liking in music was sparked by my family, who all do music, vocally and instrumentally. I love music because it holds the power to control emotions, as well as tell a story to the listener, and could either be so straightforward, or can leave it up to them how to take it. As an artist I love to feel in control of my music, and be able to make someone happy, encourage them, or give them knowledge in a way they'll better remember. Also, music changed my life. As someone with epilepsy, a good night's rest was something I got every blue moon. Listening to music was the only thing that could prevent me from going into seismic shock, and I can remember one day after singing the words to my favorite song "Jesus Jesus Jesus" by Timothy Wright, my seizures stopped occurring. Music saved my life so essentially music is my life.

Southside Johnny Has Long Answered the Classic Rock Call
Photo by Carl Lender Southside Johnny Lyon of classic rock fame grew up on the Jersey Shore Club scene with the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Van Zandt, and a full gamut of R&B performers that the mid 60’s offered. In full collaborative mode, they learned from each other and made their bones before Springsteen hit it big in 1975. But coming from a home where blues musicians like Billie Holiday, Muddy Waters and Big Joe Turner were always playing, he never really considered a career in music until he made the most of stealing his brother’s instrument of choice.
