“I’ve always felt like I’m a slower person, compared to a lot of people,” Ana Roxanne said in 2023. She was on a tour stop in Europe, speaking about her debut album, 2020’s Because of a Flower, a beguiling collection of pooling drones, ambient noise, and echoes of her spellbinding voice. She was working onRead More
You could never accuse Goldie of lacking ambition. In 1998, just three years after the British producer’s debut album, Timeless, brought new levels of sophistication to the nascent jungle sound, Goldie opted to kick off his second LP with “Mother,” a gut-wrenching, hour-long cry for help. “It’s like looking at your mum’s vagina and knowing:Read More
It’s rare—and in micromanaged blockbusters, often impossible—for an actor’s performance to be so good it not only enhances the movie, but inverts the script’s intended meaning. Twelve-year-old Juliano Krue Valdi, who stars as young Michael Jackson in the first act of Antoine Fuqua’s grotesque biopic, does precisely that. Michael opens in Gary, Indiana, where JoeRead More
Sexyy Red’s breakout tape, Hood Hottest Princess, was filled with homages to the Southern rap that shaped her. She interpolated T.I.’s trap anthem “24’s,” spit over Project Pat’s menacing “Cheese and Dope” beat, searched for the hoes over a sample of Silkk the Shocker’s “It Ain’t My Fault,” and proudly proclaimed herself the “female GucciRead More
Bhosle is known for singing daring and unconventional characters, and for her fluidity and ease across genres. Compared to her sister’s more chaste selections, Bhosle often voiced songs for actors portraying seductresses, sex workers, and cabaret dancers. She was a divorcée and a single mother for many years, and lyrics she had sung were oftenRead More
Thundercat is the bard of absurdist masculinity. His career is a comic character sketch of a certain sort of dude: one who loves Mortal Kombat and named his cat after Tron; whose childhood changed course when he found out about Goku; who goes to Tokyo and buys a suitcase worth of anime; who simultaneously fleesRead More
Mingus was so disgusted by bad news wafting up from below the Mason-Dixon line that he broke his career’s mold and wrote a song with lyrics, the kind of loose barroom call-and-response that his hero and former collaborator Charlie Parker swaggered through on the lighthearted Dizzy Gillespie and Kenny Clarke tune “Salt Peanuts.” Mingus’ contentRead More
Though he’s lost a great many things, Ye still has an undeniable touch for this kind of production spectacle. But these people didn’t just come to see a stage; a set is only as good as the actors foregrounding it, and as Ye launched into the opening stretch of songs from Bully, he instantly stumbled.Read More
The most fascinating song on ARIRANG features little more than 98 seconds of silence. Named “No. 29” after South Korea’s 29th designated national treasure, it is a field recording of the Sacred Bell of King Seongdeok. Legend has it that the bell wouldn’t ring until a child was cast into the bronze; its sound isRead More
On a beach in Mexico, the Minutemen awoke to pain. They had spent the previous day swimming for hours along Rosarito Beach. Now, on the morning of Mexico’s 1982 election, the three punks were hungover and sunburnt, their newly shaved heads red and raw. Before decamping to a taqueria, they watched a woman make herRead More
