cry baby

This is movie is stupid underrated.  Johnny Depp plays Cry-Baby, a teen heartthrob on the wrong side of the tracks who falls for a Square named Allison.  Director/Writer John Waters really nails the "James Dean" aesthetic in this movie with a hilarious and campy good time.  The songs are memorable and all the supporting cast does a great job.  Also, we love ourselves some Hatchet-Face!!  Take a listen as we go over all the boo-hoo madness that is John Waters' Cry Baby!

Tumblr era Crybaby singer/songwriter, Melanie Martinez, released her latest album “Portals” in March of this year. This album shows the change in sound she’s developing that is unlike her previous albums “K-12,” and “Crybaby,” or her EP “After School.” 

In this new project, Melanie Martinez declares her previous character, Crybaby, dead and starts a new chapter with a fairy grunge aesthetic with dark pop songs. Each song has a unique sound that transports the listeners into this new era from the alt-pop age to this new pop-rock version of the artist. 

With Portals, Martinez is telling her story of a creature between Earth and the afterlife and explores toxic relationships, self exploration, and life and death itself.

Here is our review of Melanie Martinez’s third studio album, PORTALS.   

Date Recorded: April 23rd, 2023.
