That’s where Rob Johnson comes in. >By day, he's a 41-year-old working in business development for a London law firm. By night, he’s a music industry crusader – digging up obscure gems and persuading record labels to make them available online. Some really interesting cases of "not-available-digitally" music he tracked down and the impact on the musicians are in this articles!
The new Alessia Cara single "Dead Man" is finally out today, and it officially slaps! Also, I'm all for the return of a good brass solo breakdown in popular music!

Didn't like it at first, but won't lie it got stuck in my head and it's growing on me
i sent out a plea for spanish pop music and this came back. it's exactly what i wanted
whole lotta history 4k remaster just came out. i don't know how soon i'll be able to watch it again, since it ends with sarah walking wistfully along the seine. i hope the girls are able to remember her somehow on the tour.
Alessia Cara is back in the studio! She just posted the following on Insta: [https://www.instagram.com/p/C5Th4IMutTY/?igsh=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==](https://www.instagram.com/p/C5Th4IMutTY/?igsh=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==) Alessia's a very talented and frankly underrated young singer-songwriter. Hopefully we see a new album from her soon!

Nicely, two tracks stand out to me unexpectedly: Dolly Parton's pleasing iconic song turned into a fierce revision "Jolene", and a passionate duet of Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus "II Most Wanted".
The tragic story of Irene Cara: Ripped off by her label, blacklisted, abandoned by Hollywood... and paid less than $200 for "What a Feeling" Cara, who passed away in 2022, was an incredibly talented singer and actress. In 1983, her song "What a Feeling" was number one on the Billboard chart for six weeks. Yet by 1987, her album was scrapped by her label, amidst a lengthy legal battle for unpaid royalties. She eventually won the lawsuit, being awarded $1.3 million in unpaid royalties, but was blacklisted by both the record and film industries: [https://youtu.be/E2bBLqGNxu0?si=dfTWd99ixSLdbh9b](https://youtu.be/E2bBLqGNxu0?si=dfTWd99ixSLdbh9b) [@popheads](https://poptalk.scrubbles.tech/c/popheads) [#popmusic](https://aus.social/tags/popmusic) [#music](https://aus.social/tags/music) [#IreneCara](https://aus.social/tags/IreneCara)
