WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Sometimes, a song title is so good that you need to just write it as the literal headline and then share the song.

Phones eh? They’re responsible for that fun gig you watched on YouTube for a band that never played in the country you live in. They’re responsible for that video where someone lost their shit on stage and made the news, and now we all got to see it rather than relying on someone’s word for…

We’ve featured Dora Morelenbaum on these pages before so we’re excited to share that she has her debut LP coming out soon! With a mix of bossa, samba and psych, Dora’s music has showcased her to be one of the most exciting new Brazilian artists in the scene. The new album is called ‘Pique’ and…

Outside of Japan and Korea, everything is a little bit Solo Artist, so it’s lovely to see the flame of girl groups still being carried by FLO who have been doing good bits for a while now with their brand of R&B infused pop music. They recently shared their new track ‘Check’ which they have…
-
We appreciate that some people like it when rock and rap mix. There’s no accounting for taste and all that, but the nadir of the late ’90s and early ’00s when Woodstock went from a peace and love festival and turned into an awful frat house party filled with rap-rock groups shows just how dismal…
-
Britney Spears has, shall we say, had a very full life. It hasn’t all been peaches and cream, which means news that her life will be getting the biopic treatment is tentatively good news. We say it tentatively because not all biopics are good, but we are 100% rooting for this one because we think…

It all felt somewhat inevitable that young people would look at the streaming model and wonder why they didn’t have anything to show for their money. Obviously, the convenience of having most of the world’s music in your pocket is a miracle of a thing, but when you look around your room or your house…

Look, the rap musical Hamilton was awful. You don’t need to point out how successful it has been, how Lin Manuel Miranda is probably a nice guy, or even how much you liked it – it stunk. One dimensional rapping over old-head beats performed by a cast portraying a bunch of racist white dudes who…

We were reading about tg.blk over at another site and liked what we heard. Instead of hoarding this information to ourselves, we thought we would share it here, because that’s what good people do. Seriously – stop hoarding music to yourself – nobody wins when you do that. tg.blk have a new six track EP…

Doechii has called herself a number of things over the years – the one we like best is “the trap Grace Jones” – and if that’s piqued your interest, shall we get onto the lovely business of a new record to listen to? She’s got a new one out called ‘Nissan Altima’, which to the…

DOLLY PAIRTON MORE LIKE
Dolly Parton is – and lets make no bones about this – a legend. Over 130 million records sold, the writer of iconic hits, she’s also good people – a philanthropist you could say. One of her charities have given 182 million free books to kids that need them, she pays for the college tuition…

FRANK OCEAN VINYL
You know what it’s like – you finally get into a new band and think ‘I’d quite like that on vinyl’, only to stumble over the fact that everyone else has been into them for ages and now there’s no LPs left. Well Frank Ocean fans new and old, it has been confirmed that ‘Blonde’…

NEW GRUFF IS GOOD
Obviously, Gruff Rhys is a legend. A really pleasant legend at that. Whether he’s with the Super Furry Animals (easily one of the most underrated bands who ever lived) or solo, Gruff has an uncanny knack for a sugary melody, but always cut with something psychedelic and unusual. There’s no-one quite like him. And now,…

ROCHELLE JORDAN DESERVES MORE
Rochelle Jordan started out way back when, making great but somewhat typical R&B. It was all hot boxes and day ones tackle – however, she burrowed away and emerged with a truly sensational LP called ‘Play With Them Changes’. While most of R&B is concerned with being exactly the type of hot stuff that could…
