• The Charts and The Gulf War: Mariah Carey, MC Hammer and Aerosmith [Memorial Day Special]

    Memorial Day 2015 bears a special significance for two reasons: More importantly, it's the first time in 14 years that the holiday has been celebrated with no American troops involved in a "major ground war," and it's also the 25th anniversary of the first invasion of Iraq during the Gulf War. We at Music Times can do little but throw out our thanks to those who have served and those who currently serve in the United States military, but we wanted to check out what the Billboard charts looked like on both dates, August 2, 1991 and October 7, 2001, the dates when Americans last became embroiled in foreign combat.

  • Michael Jackson, Prince and More: The Best of The Apollo's Last 30 Years

    New York City is full of famous music venues but few if any can live up to the flory of The Apollo Theater in Harlem, which has hosted the legendary Amateur Night for more than 50 years, as well as playing host to James Brown's Live at the Apollo, which many consider to be among the greatest live albums of all time. Few realize the dark period the venue went through during the '70s and '80s however, totaling nearly ten years where the famous stage was closed. It would be bought and given a shot in the arm however, reopening during May 1985, ready again to host the rowdiest of concerts. Music Times has dug through the last 30 years to find some of the most momentous events and great concerts held at The Apollo since it reopened.

  • Mariah and Nick, French and Khloe, Calvin and Rita: 2014's Biggest Musician Breakups

    It's official: Ariana Grande and Big Sean have split as a result of their mutually busy schedules, touring and supporting new albums My Everything and Dark Sky Paradise. The pair had only been dating for eight months but they were one of America's favorite celebrity couples during that span. We're just glad that, for the time being, things seem to be friendly and we hope there won't be another "I Don't F*ck With You" in the future (Sean wrote that about ex Naya Rivera).
