The American Idol Wave
Written by Shawn Woo   

This article is probably 6 months overdue, but there’s no denying it – American Idol is the music phenomenon of the 21st Century. While other genres and trends come and go (nü-metal/ska anyone?), the American Idol brand has lasted 6 seasons, and just gets bigger with each year.

Platonic Love - Beyond Body Physics
Written by Siddhartha Menon & Neha Prakash   
This is exactly the same issue that the movie When Harry met Sally was based on – can platonic love between men and women exist? Simply put - can men and women be just friends?

Billy Crystal was of the opinion that if the woman is attractive, the man will always be thinking about a romantic engagement with her, while Meg Ryan adorably played the woman who vehemently believed that men and women could be just friends, only to eventually fall in love with her so-called friend. HOOKED finally explores the friendly possibilities.

Music and Fashion: The Interconnection
Written by Rohaizatul Azhar   

Let's face it - fashion and music have a very closely connected relationship.

In fact, neither would exist without the other. So much of what we wear today is influenced by the bold and vivacious video clips that are constantly being shown on MTV and the actual stars of these video clips have an even bigger influence. Many of them have, no doubt, acquired fashion icon status.

So, naturally, HOOKED brings to you the ‘how-to' essentials of dressing up according to each of the three most popular music that defines your soul.
