REVIEW:
I love this season!
Picking up where the last season left off, and it left off with a BANG, we dig deeper into the musical family of the Lyon's. I still think Cookie is the best character on the show. She is tough. She's to-the-point, and she doesn't take crap off anyone. She knows what is best for her boys, and for the music. Lucious, on the other hand, is arrogant, money-hungry and bent on destroying people. Even if it's his own blood.
Makes you wonder if the music business really is that cut-throat. If it is, I can see why some people leave it and the spotlight all together.
The music on this show is phenomenal though. So many stars visit the show, like Alicia Keys, and sing some beautiful songs that always seem to stick in my head.
That is probably the best part of the show, the music. I do like the drama but it's the music I watch for. Some of the best tracks come on the show.
I can't wait for Season 3. It's gonna be epic!
4/5
