The full story behind the former Walmart redevelopment and proposed data center

MIDTOWN_CONCEPTUAL EXISTING WALMART FACADE UPGRADE Anytime a proposed data center enters the public consciousness, controversy follows. That's been true of the proposed project in the former Walmart near 60th and Capitol, a partnership between AFS Milwaukee, LLC; Gorman & Company; and the City of Milwaukee. With a public hearing on the project scheduled for May 18 (although it looks like it'll be rescheduled for a later date), I've seen many […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…A sensational plethora of audio goodness from BLARF, Little Simz, AZ, Jenevieve, Action Bronson, Brother Wallace, Namasenda and Jarrod Lawson

Little Simz – Sugar Girl (AWAL) Little Simz continues her reign as one of the most versatile artists in the game with the Sugar GirlEP. This isn't the grand, orchestral Simz of Sometimes I Might Be Introvert; this is Simz at the 2 AM warehouse rave. Reunited with producer Jakwob, the four-track project leans heavily into club textures, fast-moving UK dance production, and high-adrenaline spontaneity. The collaborative energy is top-tier, featuring the likes of JT, 070 Shake, and Deela. Standout […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…A Stellar consortium of NEW works from India Shawn, Isaiah Rashad, Asake, Durand Bernarr, Another Taste, Gabrielle Cavassa, duendita, JAy Worthy, DC THE DON, Curren$y & Wiz Khalifa

India Shawn Subject to Change (VANTA Music) R&B singer-songwriter India Shawn is back with her first major body of work in four years, and let’s just say it was well worth the wait! Executive produced by the legendary D'Mile, the six-track project serves as a fluid, emotional expedition through life's transitions. Shawn shifts seamlessly between different sonic worlds, from the bright, 1970s-inspired vibe of "Marmalade" to darker, melancholic territories. Word from the studio is that Shawn noted the project is […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…Tantalizing new flavors from Kehlani, Yuna, Billy Danze, Jordan Rakei, Angelique Kidjo, Liam Bailey, VINSON, Ebony Riley and Jai’Len Josey

Kehlani – KEHLANI (Atlantic Records) Queen Kehlani’s self-titled fifth album is a masterclass in R&B maturity, dropping right on her 31st birthday. Moving away from the experimental "Crash" era, this project leans back into a sophisticated, 2000s-coded soul sound that feels both nostalgic and futuristic. It’s a dense 17-track journey executive produced by Khris Riddick-Tynes, featuring an absolute Hall of Fame roster: Brandy, Usher, Missy Elliott, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Clipse, and Cardi B. The album shines brightest when it honors […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS. Transcendental flyness and superb audio from M.I.A., yaya bey, Adrian Younge, Honey Dijon, Jessie Ware, Blue Lab Beats, Protoje and Buddy

M.I.A. – M.I. 7  Screenshot (Ohmni Music) The global disruptor is back, and she’s taking us to church church—but not the way we might be used to. M.I. 7 is a global form of gospel, yet a pivot that trades traditional pews for heavy, distorted basslines and rhythmic chants that feel like a spiritual riot. It’s an experimental journey through 16 tracks that somehow blend the Book of Revelation with the grit of the London underground, featuring the massive textures […]

BALTHVS – Transmutations (Cubensis Records) The funky and trippy Colombian trio has officially "transmuted" their road energy into a high-fidelity studio experience. Captured during their Flesh and Soulworld tour and polished between San Diego and Bogotá, the album features bandleader Balthazar Aguirre on production and a unique dual-bass dynamic from Johanna Mercuriana and tour stand-in Vanessa Muñoz.

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…Prestigious new releases from some greats: Thundercat, Arlo Parks, Earl Sweatshirt & MIKE, Curren$y & Wiz Khalifa, Swae Lee and OMAH LAY

Thundercat - Distracted  (BRAINFEEDER) Arriving exactly six years after his Grammy-winning It Is What It Is, Thundercat’s latest effort is an organically stunning and stubbornly present new chapter. While the album maintains his signature dream-like falsetto and virtuosic bass work, it feels more empathetic and grounded than ever. Tracks like “ThunderWave” with WILLOW and “This Thing We Call Love” feat. Channel Tres showcase a beautiful balance between his familiar jazz-fusion humor and a new, vulnerable introspection regarding the blurring lines […]
