Let’s be honest: Nobody wants to work very hard right after the New Year. That includes me — and the rest of the music industry, judging by the definite lack of major new releases arriving in the coming days. The queens of the hill are clearly Selena Gomez and Kesha, who will be duking it out for pop-chart dominance with their respective albums Rare and High Road. As for me, I’ll be looking for some buried treasures in the rest of the list:
