Written by: Precious Drew I knew I was in for a good night when I walked into The Armory and saw just how packed it was. Chance The Rapper brought his Coloring Book 10-year anniversary tour to Minneapolis on Tuesday, October 6, with New Orleans native, La Reezy, opening the show. Released in May 2016, Coloring Book was a defining moment in Chance’s career. The mixtape blended gospel, hip-hop and soulful live instrumentation in a way that felt different from what was happening

I had the chance to sit down with her and chat about music, movement, and manifestation, while uncovering some of the influences and practices that went into her latest album “Owls, Omens, and Oracles” and her EP “Brighter Blue”.

Written by: Camila Lupa ARTIST: Audrey Hobert ALBUM: Who's the Clown? (2025) GENRE: Pop RATING: 9/10 It's 12AM on a Monday, and you're laying in bed with your broken wired earbuds, knowing you should go to sleep because you have things to do in the morning. Things such as: leaving the house, putting yourself in awkward situations, and accepting yourself. A tedious to-do list for sure. A few videos into your nightly dooomscroll, an album name asks you a question: "Who's the Cl

Written by: Lauren Corrigan Over the last couple of months, I’ve been able to go to a handful of different festivals and immerse myself in many different spaces within the festival scene. Each festival has its own crowd, just like every concert has its own group of fans. Overall, the rave scene is a diverse space that includes everyone! Especially at bigger and broader festivals, you can find many different genres in one place, which is great for first-time festival-goers, es

Written by: Catherine Fleck It’s the beginning of October and I wanted to share some upcoming releases that I can’t wait to listen to. First up is Blossoms sixth studio album “Songs From The Wedding Cake”. I have been loving the marketing and social media content posted by the band from Stockport, UK promoting some of the singles - for example a behind the scenes look at the music video for “Husband” starring Jack O’Connell (love you Cook, IYKYK) where he’s cooking a cottage

Written by: Isabel Kay-Anyaji Photo by: Diana Dumi @dumivisuals Introducing UNINVITED, an indie pop-punk band from Glasgow made up of Jay Eliver (guitar and vocals), Alex Young (lead guitar), and Fiorenza Cocozza (drums). Paving the way for other women and gender non conforming pop-punk artists, they make music that is reminiscent of early 2000’s rock undertones (and sometimes explicit) social commentary. Their latest single “Age of Mass Anxiety” touches on some of the challe

A huge tradition in autumn is enjoying one of the many films centered around horror, back to school, or the season itself to get into the spirit of things. Here, narrowed down are some of the best movie soundtracks for any fall activit

Since then, she has released two full albums, with a third available to stream in just a few days. She masterfully blends folk and rock elements while exploring themes of love and loss.

Written by: Precious Drew There are certain songs that immediately take you back to a specific time in your life. For me, Nappy Roots’ “Good Day” is one of them. I graduated high school in 2014, long after Nappy Roots’ early-2000s commercial peak, but you wouldn’t have known it from my playlists. Their music, along with plenty of ’80s, ’90s and early 2000s hip-hop, was the soundtrack to a lot of my teenage years. So when I saw Nappy Roots and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on the lineu

Written by: Danielle Azu What can you accomplish in one day? A couple of errands? A day trip? I decided to take it one step further and spend an entire day at All Things Go 2026! Sorry, such a dramatic intro, but All Things Go is now the premier annual festival held in the DMV, and now New York and Toronto, hosting about 70,000 people across NYC and MD alone in 2024 (Pollstar.com). All Things Go started as a blog in 2006, eventually making its way into the festival space in 2

Pier 80 | San Francisco, CA Photos By: Toby Shapiro | Instagram Portola Festival returned to San Francisco for its fifth year. This festival really had something for every music lover. From DJs to pop music to everywhere in between, I got to check out some amazing sets. The festival drew in over 40,000 people each day to San Francisco’s Pier 80. This was my first time attending Portola, and I found it to feel unique and special. It didn’t just feel like another music festival
