The Great Gatsby soundtrack, which is available for pre-order now, has musical genius written all over it with original tunes from artists like will.i.am, Florence & the Machine, a new solo track from Fergie and a Beyoncé cover of Amy Winehouse‘s “Back to Black”. The lead single from the highly anticipated film’s soundtrack is a deliciously haunting track delivered by the Lana Del Rey., who may just have been born for this performance. The songstress, who refers to her style as “Hollywood Sadcore,” may be the most obvious yet brilliant choice for the Baz Luhrmann film. Listen to “Young & Beautiful” now below and pre-order the soundtrack now on iTunes to get the…

Listen! It’s Vetrano! And I’ve got a guilty pleasure that I can hide no more! It’s probably no surprise that Demi Lovato‘s ginormous single “Give Your Heart A Break” may have struck a minor chord with V for Vetrano. (long pause, head down) Ok fine, I turned it up and sang along at the top of my lungs every time that track was on the radio — which was often, and by often I mean playing on my iPod. While I typically can’t stand those songs that find their way into “heavy rotation,” Lovato managed to never grow old. But when news of her new single and a new album…

Nashville’s latest success story, Five Knives, debuted their hot new video “Messin’ With My Mind” on MTVu this morning. The clip also landed on MTV’s Buzzworthy following its premiere. No surprise though, seeing that the band is on the road on the MTV Artist to Watch Tour with Twenty One Pilots. The single is the second from the electro-punk rockers EP The Rising and is my favorite tune to rock out to when I’m feeling aggressive. But you’ll have to download the track on the band’s website (or right here on Tragic Kingdom) because MTV’s version of the single comes overly-censored. So censored infact, a reference to popping pills gets…

The Nashville-formed pop band Hot Chelle Rae is gearing up for the release of their third studio record, which is expected to drop later this year. The lead single “Hung Up” hit radio back in February and has been working it’s way into the ears of their fans ever since.  The boys have traveled all over the globe, opening for acts like Taylor Swift, Cher Lloyd and Lil’ Jon and seem poised for global domination. If the new single is any indication, the boys new record will follow the lead of their hits “I Like It Like That” and their smash hit “Tonight, Tonight” with catchy, sing-a-long choruses. The video…

Yep, it’s that time again. If you’re not as obsessed with the GIF sitch as me, then you might be thinking… And that’s okay with me, but seriously What the GIF? How could you not love this week’s biggest headlines told by some high-larious GIFs? Let’s see if I can win you over with this week’s Top 10 — sometimes over exaggerated — headlines.  #10 – Even Nicki Minaj’s unusual antics can’t save American Idol‘s ratings as they hit a series low.   #9 – Demi Lovato will return to judges panel for Season 3 of The X Factor, but without Britney will it be the same?  #8 – Spring Breakers…

It’s no secret that my heart beats to Lana Del Rey‘s drum (as illustrated by the variety of ways I tried to slip her name into a post over the last year). Today, she delivers a new video covering the Leonard Cohen classic “Chelsea Hotel No. 2” and proves that when it comes to singing, she can do anything. There’s nothing really more for me to say, other than thank you for this Lana! V for Vetrano needed this today. Watch the simple, yet beautiful video below.

Would you believe me if I told you there was a new band with a cool sound that was worthy of your ears coming out of Nashville? Of course you would. And not only because Nashville was recently named the #1 music scene by Rolling Stone magazine. It’s no surprise considering the amount of talent oozing from this great city, so without further ado let me introduce to you to Music City’s latest noteworthy act Sol Cat. I got to sit down with a couple of the guys from the emerging rock band a few weeks ago to talk about their new album, new video (seen below) and where their name…
