Nobody is safe. It’s a Freebandz and GS9 affair on Doe Boy’s new track featuring Bobby Shmurda. Shot by D Gainz, the accompanying video finds the Cleveland and Brooklyn rappers wilding out inside a packed studio while delivering their murderous raps over an ATL Jacob-production. “Catch A Body” arrives following Doe Boy’s previous single, “Wanna […]
Kassie Krut – “Copycat” & “Killing It”
A couple years ago, Palm’s Eve Alpert and Kasra Kurt released a song under the name Kassie Krut, which was included on a mixtape for the Philadelphia label Nino Tomorrow. They’ve played a few shows since then, and Matt Anderegg — who has clocked time in Mothers and Body Meat — has joined the project. […]
Video: Russ “Paddington Freestyle”
Pull up. After taking it to Paris on “Yes Sir“, Russ keeps it moving with a video for his latest drop, “Padding Freestyle”. Sampling music from the animated comedy film Paddington, Russ takes a drive while boasting his success and his influence in the rap game. Buckle up.
Homeboy Sandman, Aesop Rock “Lovin It”
No crime, no punishment. Stepping out the matrix comes Homeboy Sandman and his new track “Lovin It” produced by Aesop Rock. Anchored by Aesop’s hypnotic strings, the prolific rapper from Queens delivers an abundance of thought-provoking bars with a keen flow. The track is one of the bonus cuts off the pair’s upcoming Anjelitu EP’s […]
Margaret Glaspy – “My Body My Choice”
Though Margaret Glaspy wrote “My Body My Choice” two years ago, it is of course an unfortunately resonant time for her to release it now. After the Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade, Glaspy was, like many of us, appalled. She decided to finally release the song “My Body My Choice,” with a portion of […]
Wet Leg Agnostics Might Like Soulwax’s “Too Late Now” Remix, Which Does Not Sound Like Wet Leg
The massively popular and weirdly polarizing Band To Watch Wet Leg have released one album and claim to have finished a second, but until today they have never released a remix. That changes with Soulwax’s spin on their moodily propulsive album closer “Too Late Now,” which so completely reinvents the track that it hardly resembles […]
The Veldt’s “Check Out Your Mind” Cover Takes Curtis Mayfield Into The Realm Of Shoegaze
The Raleigh and NYC-based rock band the Veldt have been around since 1986. At the peak of the Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill area’s ascent to “next Seattle” status, they were championed by no less a shoegaze authority than Robin Guthrie, and they’re still coming up with fresh, fascinating ideas well into their fourth decade. […]
Homeboy Sandman – “Lovin’ It” (Prod. Aesop Rock)
“Lovin’ It” is not a cover of the McDonald’s jingle that Justin Timberlake once performed and Clipse may or may not have helped to write. “Lovin’ It” is an original bonus track from the new deluxe edition of Homeboy Sandman’s 2021 EP Anjelitu. As he informs us repeatedly, he’s outside the matrix and lovin’ it. […]
Lande Hekt – “Gay Space Cadets”
Muncie Girls leader Lande Hekt is back with a new solo album, House Without A View, the follow-up to her 2021 Album Of The Week-worthy debut Going To Hell. It doesn’t include “Romantic,” the one-off track that she put out a couple months ago, but there are 11 other new songs, including today’s lead single […]
No Age – “Andy Helping Andy”
Spaced-out Los Angeles art-punkers No Age are now in their 17th year as a band; the duo slid into veteran status so quietly that nobody even noticed. At this point, though, it feels safe to say that No Age are legends of the California DIY scene. They’re not slowing down, either. Two years after the […]
