This week’s episode is all about showing up with intention — whether it’s on stage, in life, or creatively.

I’m talking about:

* 🎤 The Maren Morris free concert that missed the mark — and why effort and presence matter, even when it’s a free show.

* 💿 Mariah Carey’s new album and how it feels like the return of grown, glittered, grounded Mariah.

* 🎶 Seeing Jon Batiste live and how his performance reminded me what it means to lead with soul and purpose.

* 💙 My mood board this week — blue hues, Bowie energy, and a real sense of gratitude for still being here.

* 🌟 The artists inspiring me right now: **JEMS**, Amber Mark, and Olivia Dean.

This one’s honest, reflective, and full of love for the kind of music that moves you.

In this episode of Life and Times with Quinton, I’m diving into pop’s new revival. From Justin Bieber’s Swag 1 & 2 era to Jon Batiste’s soul-stirring genius — and yes, even Hilary Duff’s quiet cultural comeback — I’m talking about what it really means to evolve in front of the world. It’s funny, it’s reflective, and it’s a full-circle moment for millennial pop lovers everywhere

Usher. Backstreet Boys. *NSYNC. Justin Timberlake. Once upon a time, male pop stars ruled the charts — choreo, charisma, and chaos included. But in 2025, where did that magic go? Are we in a new era where men don’t want to be pop stars anymore? Or did the culture shift around them?

In this episode of Life and Times with Quinton, I dive into the evolution (and maybe disappearance) of the male pop star — from the Y2K icons we grew up with to today’s genre-blurring artists.

Lindsay Lohan is back, and so is Freaky Friday! In this episode, we dive into her long-awaited return to the screen with the new sequel, why the original was such a cultural reset, and how Lindsay’s career — from The Parent Trap to Mean Girls to her pop hits — made her one of the defining stars of a generation. This summer wasn’t just about nostalgia; it was about Lindsay reclaiming her spotlight.

🔥 The 2000s R&B Renaissance is BACK! 🔥

Ashanti, Brandy, Monica, and Keyshia—these queens gave us the vocals, the vibes, and all the memories we’ll never forget. I just saw Keyshia Cole live in my town (still processing 😅), and I can’t wait to see Brandy and Monica in December on The Boy Is Mine tour… is it too soon to start counting down?

this episode is for anyone who lives for 2000s R&B, nostalgia, and a little fangirl / fanboy energy.
