Gospel Soundcheck

There’s a group on Christian music industry insiders who get together every year for a private “ceremony” designed to honor the worst in Christian music over the past year.

American Idol’s final Top 4 – Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey, Kris Allen and Allison Iraheta – will perform rock songs on Tuesday’s show, with guest mentor, former Guns N’ Roses guitarist, Slash.

Thanks to everyone who pointed out my really goofy title on the post about the death of David Cook’s brother. I was in a hurry this weekend to do posts and finish a ton of work because I was on jury duty yesterday. I started to write one headline, changed my mind, and never went…

For those of you complaining about crappy Christian music, you have to check out Phillip’s new album. He’s one of those artists…

Last night, the remaining five American Idol contestants performed songs from the Rat Pack, and they proved why they’re the best of this season. It’s difficult to predict who’s going home. Even DialIdol.com, which tracks the busy signals for the voting phone lines, has the contestants in a dead heat, with a Kris Allen and…
