Saba Releases New Album ‘Coffee!’ Recorded In His Car

I love a concept album — any concept, really. But especially an unfussy, simple concept album, released completely by surprise, from one of my all-time favorite rappers recording today. Saba, fresh off the release of his and No ID’s collaboration From The Private Collection Of Saba And No ID (say that five times fast), dropped […]

‘Legend In My Hood’ Interview

As the NBA’s 80th(!) season got underway last week, one of the league’s brightest stars took the next step in expanding his footprint beyond the game.

Billie Eilish Wanted To Cut ‘Birds Of A Feather’

Billie Eilish’s “Birds Of A Feather” was a massive hit. It somehow never hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, but it has racked up over 3.1 billion streams and was one of 2024’s defining songs. In a new Wall Street Journal feature, though, Eilish says she frequently wanted to cut the song […]

MF DOOM & New York Knicks Merch Collection For DOOMSDAY

Ever since MF DOOM‘s passing five years ago, the only photos you can get of the late masked rapper on Getty almost all feature him wearing some form of New York Knicks gear. Which is usually kind of sad (having to recycle so many pics is a sad reminder of what we’ve lost), but today, […]

“Sound Check’ With Jeremy Hecht: Mike Dean

The latest guest on Sound Check with Jeremy Hecht is superproducer Mike Dean.

Ari Lennox’s ‘Under The Moon’ Video Embraces Her Wild Side

Earlier this month, Ari Lennox announced her third studio album, Vacany — her first under a new deal with Interscope Records, separate from Dreamville, her label home for the past ten years. At the same time, Lennox shared the album’s second single, “Under The Moon,” a doo-wop accented update of her dreamy, neo-soul-influenced sound. Today, […]

Sombr Accidentally Calls Benny Blanco Instead Of Selena

At the allegedly “cringe” concerts on his current tour, Sombr has found a fun gimmick. Routinely, he’ll invite a fan to join him on stage and have them call one of their exes, at which point Sombr will usually have something to say to them (here’s an example). During his October 27 show at the […]

Chappell Roan Is Inducting Cyndi Lauper Into The Rock Hall

The 2025 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony is set for November 8, and recently, the telecast has started to come together. A bunch of names for artists participating in the show were just announced, and Chappell Roan is among them, to induct Cyndi Lauper. Roan is pretty pumped about it, too. In […]

Initially launched as a one-off event in an airplane hanger back in 1999, Iceland Airwaves, the world’s most northern music festival takes place each year in downtown Reykjavík. This year the fest will once again showcase global and local talent, in venues around the city, from historical churches to record stores and museums. From November […]
