Guess Who’s Bringing Music Back

By Jessica Zaleski

It’s a well-known fact that musicians are pros at making music, and then retiring (or saying they’re retiring and then coming back. I’m looking at you Jay-Z). I’m totally fine with never hearing another 98 Degrees album, but I got upset when I heard the White Stripes were finito. Some artist’s careers end by tragic means (RIP Amy Winehouse and Michael Jackson), and some just make tragic music (Right Said Fred).

Then there are the artists who want to “branch out” from music for movies. Mark Wahlberg started making movies and was never heard on the radio again. And then there’s this guy. He was a music GOD, and then decided to trade in the mic for the big screen. But don’t count him out just yet, because we may be hearing some new hits from him very soon…
