Tyla – A*POP  (FAX / Epic Records) Tyla continues to demonstrate a refined command over modern rhythm with A*POP, building upon the global success of her debut.

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS: An all-emcompassing plethora of prestigious goodness from all angles of the music world with releases from Syd, Steve Lacy, Nia Archives, Masego, Larry June, Tricky, Ambré, Rome Streetz, Rick Ross and Magi Merlin.

Syd – Beard (Free Lunch / Warner Records) Dropping on the exact same Friday as her fellow Internet bandmate, Steve LAcy (below), Syd delivers an absolute masterpiece of quiet confidence with Beard. The title itself is a brilliant, empowering flip—inspired by the upper-lip peach fuzz she was taught to hate, turned into a badge of unapologetic, outlier honor. Sonically, this 12-track coming-of-age snapshot is the kind of smoky, late-night driving music we’ve been begging for, working the mid-tempo valleys like […]

CHUCK STRANGERS….THE INTERVIEW

When Chuck Strangers sits down to talk about Glory of the King's Hand (Lex Records), it feels less like a standard promo run and more like a late-night chat with an old friend. He opens up about how this album represents a major shift in perspective: it's all about playing the cards you're dealt instead of measuring your life with someone else's ruler. Chuck talks about how he deliberately chose to step away from his usual comfort zone. Known for […]
