Multi-talented, South London-based singer/songwriter/rapper Abi Jenaé first caught our attention with the late Doctor Frabz-produced single "Break It Down" sometime in 2021. Now the genre-blending artist is back with her brand-new summer anthem, "Extraordinary Girl," specifically made for the ladies. The production has a bright and energetic vibe reminiscent of mid-2000s R&B with a touch of UK hip-hop swag and sees Abi embodying her enthralling femininity and girl-next-door energy that is irresistible to many. As usual, Jenae is unapologetic and doesn't mince her words as she reminds the men folk that she is not a pushover.

Kode PinK's latest single, "How The Great Have Fallen," is a playful yet poignant exploration of post-breakup disillusionment. Featuring singer/songwriter bnji, the track combines sharp lyricism with an upbeat, dance-pop production that adds a layer of irony to the song’s themes. From the opening line, "I shoulda knew Cupid had to go and give ya someone new," Kode PinK sets a sarcastic tone, perfectly capturing the mix of disappointment and humor that often follows a breakup.

[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.]. Elizabeth Montgomery was one of the most popular actors from the 1950s to her unfortunate passing from cancer in 1995.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
