About Buddahead
Before Buddahead, there was Raman Kia. He was born in Iran, where learning piano offered a respite from the harsh drumbeat of daily violence. Kia fled the country while still a boy, and studied in England before eventually settling in New York City. It was there that pal Leona Naess nicknamed him Buddahead, and his lush adult alternative sound began to take shape. He and his band then hit the road. In 2003, Buddahead played Bonnaroo, and ended up contributing a cut called "Invisible" to the festival's commemorative CD. That tour exposure led to a deal with Sanctuary, and the label issued Buddahead's debut LP Crossing the Invisible Line in May '04. It was a slick, AAA, radio-ready affair comparable to mature pop acts like Train or Coldplay. ~ Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide

So What P!nk |
| The original girl kisser and full-time naughty star gets back to form, after her last album nearly flopped in the States. It was saved by the last minute success of the reissued single "Who Knew." Her new effort, "Funhouse," looks destined to enjoy a much healthier commercial career and reconquer P!nk's dominant position among today's pop-rock divas, starting with a bang: in just a few days, "So What,", a frantic glam rock tune whose vengeful lyrics are supposed to be about her recent divorce from motocross champ Carey Hart, has already established itself as one of her biggest hits to date and is also P!nk's first solo U.S. chart topper; an unexpectedly happy ending, crowned by the appearance of Hart in its video. | |
