The Viewfinder: Jennifer Lopez’s “Papi”
I have no idea why I love Jennifer Lopez’s Love? as much as I do. I also have no idea why I watched About A Boy starring Hugh Grant for the umpteenth time the other night. Things happen and we can’t explain them, alright? Anyway, Jenny from the block is back with “Papi”, her latest single from the aforementioned record. It’s also my favorite song from the album. Don’t let me sway you though. Listen to “Papi” once and I […]
Hear Here!: J. Lo & Pitbull’s “On the Floor”
“American Idol” just might save Jennifer Lopez’s music career. Key word: might. I’m sure Paula Abdul had designs on regaining her pop star status after “Idol” turned into a ratings juggernaut.

While I question the thought process behind having Perry on a show aimed […]
Dear J. Lo: Don't Give Up Your Day Job
I was watching reruns of “In Living Color” this weekend and realized: yes, Jennifer Lopez can shake her ass. I watch “The Cell” or “Selena” or “Anaconda” and I realize: yes, Jennifer Lopez can act. Kinda. I listen to “Waiting for Tonight” or “Get Right” and realize: yes, in the hands of the right producers, Jennifer Lopez is capable of making a song that makes me nod my head. But after listening to even a small portion of her musical […]
J. Lo and Shyne: Maybe Def Jam Will Write Me a Check Too
Let’s have a moment of silence for the musical career of Jennifer Lopez. The multimedia superstar started out humbly as a dancer on “In Living Color” and eventually made it big in movies before exploding in the music game as part of the “Latin explosion” that spawned hit records by Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias and the man who J. Lo would eventually marry, Marc Anthony. Early in the past decade, she routinely hit the top of the charts with songs […]
