Since The Lava Lizard launched in June 2011, we have been flicking through the history books and enjoying the exciting accomplishments of acts from across the industry with our signature Music Minute feature. Now, after more than seven months of fun facts, we are thrilled to celebrate our 200th Music Minute!

From Michael Jackson and his signature moonwalk to LMFAO’s surprising connection to industry pioneer Berry Gordy, Music Minute has truly been the most exciting feature on The Lava Lizard. People claimed that it would impossible to compile just 50 of these facts but now we have arrived at 200 and there are still dozens of topics for us to explore!

So, as we reflect on what we have already achieved during the last few months, check out some of my personal Music Minute articles below:
