A lot going on this week, folks. Let’s play some catch-up…
- Hey, remember Sachse resident Dondria? We told you about her last year–and then again last month when the above video for her song “You’re The One” was released as the lead single off her upcoming debut full-length. Well, this week, while still getting love on BET’s 106 & Park, she’s also reached another milestone: She broke into the top 20 of Billboard‘s Top Hip-Hop and R&B Songs and Singles chart, peaking this week at No. 18. And, really, that’s an impressive spot–just one below Erykah Badu’s “Window Seat,” actually.
- Hey, remember a year and a half ago when Black Tue Dynasty broke up? Pretty big deal at the time. Well, turns out, now the band’s reuniting–for a one-off gig in support of Joan Jett and The Blackhearts at Elgin B. Robertson Park in Rowlett. You can get your tickets here. But, really, here’s the best part: The reunion comes as part of that town’s three-day “Que Fest.” And, que, as we all know, translates to “WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?????” in English. Loosely.
- Hey, remember about a week ago when we told you that Burleson’s own Kelly Clarkson’s new album was leaking like crazy? Well, it still is, turns out. A new one leaked today. These are still demos that are leaking–or so it’s being reported–but, man, is this really album starting to sound like the most lackluster dance disc ever, or what?
