Today we did something a little bit different and looked into Frank Sinatra’s legacy. What does his music mean to you today?

This weeks’ episode of @switchedonpop.bsky.social on Timbaland is extremely my shit. I’ve always said that Aaliyah was ahead of her time and doing what the other girlies weren’t and that’s thanks to Timb’s beats

@switchedonpop.bsky.social Does this LadyGaga song count as Trance? Also…it’s a full video that has real rewatch potential!

Really enjoyed this podcast as the @switchedonpop.bsky.social boys declare their jingle sucks and go about developing a new one.

I actually learned some things about musical production; they made me LOL in real life; and the new jingle is cool. Kudos!

Our jingle sucks. Let’s change it.
