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

Nappy Roots and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony Bring Hip-Hop Nostalgia to Legacy Cup MN

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.

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

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

Scene Queen Gets Metalicious in Lawrence, Kansas

Written by: Ann Wallsmith What better way is there to start a concert set than singing about chipping your nails because you beat up on a man? For Scene Queen, it’s the only way to start a set. Scene Queen performed at The Granada in Lawrence, KS to a high energy crowd as part of her Metalicious Tour, named after the title of her newest EP released earlier this month. (It was specifically released on 9/11, a decision by Scene Queen’s label that led to many jokes of a questio
