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 […]
Courtesy of Artist I sit down with acclaimed cellist, singer, composer and self-proclaimed “orchestral nerd” Kelsey Lu, one of today’s most captivating musical storytellers. We discuss how their classical training laid the foundation for their artistry, why storytelling has always been at the heart of their work and how collaborations across genres helped them discover their own artistic voice. It’s an honest conversation about curiosity, creativity and the courage to evolve.
It definitely isn't everyday that we get to talk to Hip-Hop Royalty and one of the living embodiments of the genre but, today we did.

Courtesy of Artist For this episode, I sat down with an incredible artist whose creativity delves into the margins of our lives. Some artists write songs. Mereba writes memories. In this conversation, the singer-songwriter reflected on the moment she first fell in love with writing, the profound influence of her father and brother on the artist she has become, and the deep connection she still feels to her mother’s Milwaukee roots. She also opened up about one of the most […]
Ibeyi – Offering (AWAL Recordings) French-Cuban twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz return with Offering, their fourth studio album that stretches their mesmerizing global soundscapes into grander, experimental territories. Known for blending modern electronic elements with traditional Yorùbá chants and Afro-Cuban percussion, the duo reaches a brilliant creative peak here. The production feels delightfully restless, contrasting heavy rhythm sections with delicate, baroque melodies. The record is previewed by the post-industrial R&B jam and lead single "Moshpit," which floats somewhere beautifully […]

Tierra Whack – Whack's Museum (Interscope Records) Tierra Whack confidently reclaims her title as hip-hop's most eccentric visionary on her brilliant new mixtape, Whack's Museum. Stepping completely away from standard guest features, the Philadelphia emcee uses all 12 tracks to showcase her unmatched pen game, unpredictable flows, and razor-sharp wit. The production dials back the polished sheen of her previous work for a gritty, punchy, and deeply nostalgic sonic canvas that feels tailor-made for lyrical purists. The blistering single "TOTEM" […]
Blxst Labor Of Love (Empire) Blxst comes through completely self-produced on Labor Of Love, serving up his signature buttery West Coast R&B bounce. He doubles down on the melodic hooks and crisp drum pockets that have made him a staple for summer soundtracks, maintaining a flawless balance between smooth street lyricism and late-night vulnerability. By taking full sonic control of the boards, he ensures that the instrumentation perfectly mirrors his vocal cadences, relying on warm basslines, syncopated claps, and lush […]
