One hit is all it takes for an established musician to become an international star.

“Luxurious. Sexy. Intimate.” That’s how Crossfade described Adoré when we interviewed owner and nightlife impresario, Cy Waits back in December. Now that we’ve experienced the club firsthand, we can say with certainty that Adoré is indeed everything that Waits described it to be, and more. From the moment that those…
¡Ay, ay ay! Rise and shine for Cinco de Mayo! Even if you’re not Mexican, tonight you’re gonna rock your sombrero, pound shots of tequila, and pretend you are. Sure, you’ll wake up hungover, but at least you’ll have sweet music from indie rockers the Head and the Heart, rock…
Sit back, relax, and take a trago of tequila. It’s Cinco de Mayo weekend. And since the holiday is more of an American celebration than Mexican fiesta, we’re gonna throw it down like the Mexicans did 152 years ago at the Battle of Puebla. But if you just wanna party…
“Let me get Tamar on the phone for you. Don’t hang up,” says a man’s voice on the other end of the line. After a five second pause of silence, a call comes through. “This is Tamar right now!” laughs the singer, calling in just before soundcheck at the Times…

As a two-time Grammy-winning artist and ganador of 20 Latin Grammy Awards, Colombian rockero Juanes knows a thing or two about the music biz. That’s why he was the talk of the Billboard Latin Music Conference’s Digital Superstar Q&A session this week, and why he’s headlining tomorrow’s Billboard Latin Music…
When you’re in the rap biz, it’s all about the Benjamins. No matter how many shiny awards are stacked somewhere in that multimillion-dollar mansion, you’ve only truly made it when you rank among Forbes’ wealthiest hip-hop artists. More than just lyrical worth, the worth of these rap moguls was calculated…
Ever wished you could make stop time before Monday arrives? Well, you’re not alone. Miami may be called the Magic City, but that doesn’t mean the 305 never sees the first day of the work week. At least there’s some pretty good music comin’ up, from John Legend’s acoustic vibes…

Yeah, being broke sucks, but that’s no excuse for you to spend Friday night eating Doritos and watching reruns of The Golden Girls from your sofa all weekend long. You live in Miami. That means that you don’t need wads of cash to party like an animal. All you need…
