The 2015 Billboard Awards on May 17th, and this year it was hosted by Ludacris and Chrissy Teigen. If you were busy but you still want to know what happened so you can talk about it with your friends, this post is for you- I notice you, I’ve got you.

Juicy J is known for his club bangers, crazy personality and even crazier concerts. The Memphis native rapper brought all of that and more to the House of Blues on Thursday night.

Levitation Festival, also known as Austin Psych Fest, started Friday at Carson Creek Ranch in Austin, Texas. Day one of the festival included performances from Tame Impala, DIIV, Spiritualized, Lightning Bolt, Metz, among many others. Here is a chronological recap of what I experienced today!

By now, you know that R&B recording artist Travis Garland is no stranger to my posts and this cover is no different. We should all be hearing his voice on the radio and complaining about not getting into his sold out shows. For now though, let’s enjoy the gift of his voice through the wonderful […]

Austin City Limits revealed its lineup early Tuesday morning and tickets are now on sale! This year’s lineup is star-studded, as usual, and includes artists such as Drake, The Weeknd, Florence and the Machine, Foo Fighters, A$AP Rocky, The Strokes and many, many more.

Those bands that you see the name of and think, nah, I probably wouldn’t like them. That’s how many may treat Manchester Orchestra, but don’t do yourself the same injustice. This group from the Deep South, Atlanta, are a hit in the indie and alternative rock scenes. They’ve been around for over ten years and […]

On Thursday, Mac Demarco announced the release of a new Mini-LP entitled Another One to be released August 7th via Captured Tracks. Along with the announcement a short promo video shot by Mac’s girlfriend was also released, featured below. You can pre-order the new LP, which features the instrumentals of all 8 tracks, here. Mac Demarco will […]

This week’s Fave Cover Friday is from one of my favorite YouTubers, Travis Garland, whose man-bun is almost as angelic as his vocals. Recently, he covered “Earned It” by The Weeknd, and I knew that I had to share this. If you’ve turned on any TV or radio for the past couple of months, I’m sure […]

Like so many other artists on Monday, 4/20 did not go unnoticed by Audio Push. The duo from Inland Empire, Calif. released a thematic 14-track project called The Good Vibe Tribe, complete with weed-strewn artwork. Artist features include Vince Staples, Casey Veggies, Isaiah Rashad and G-Eazy, among others. Audio Push members Oktane and Pricetag love connecting […]

IT’S HERE! “Cherry Bomb,” with a total of 13 songs, was released late Sunday night, or early Monday morning for us in Texas, and boy is it different from Tyler’s previous albums. For those of you have not  heard the album, direct your ears to the Spotify playlist below as you flow through the sonically […]

Wisconsin based artist, Webster X (or Sam Ahmed), has taken the hip-hop scene by storm with his creative beats and flow. He recently performed in Austin for SXSW and caught the attention of many people and current fans. I had the opportunity to link up with the talented artist and ask him a few questions […]

Hey all!  In case you missed it, last night “Wes and Way’s No Top 40” premiered the brand new single “Skeleton Face” by Amherst, MA surf garage outfit Sexy Girls.  The band consists of Alex Whitelaw (guitar, vocals), Adam Harz-vi (bass), Blake Stone (guitar), and Steve Kerr (drums; he’s hiding in the above photo).  The song […]

Rapper A$AP Rocky had an exclusive conversation with Red Bull Music academy on Wednesday and at the end of the conversation, he premiered a brand new track called “M’$”. The song first appeared as a snippet at the end of the video for his most recent single “Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2.” It has now been released in CDQ […]

Amy Winehouse entered back into media headlines with the release of a trailer from a brand new documentary over her successful, yet tragically short, life. Considered one of the greatest women in music, as well as being called the “pre-eminent vocal talent of her generation,” Amy Winehouse changed the music game. With an amazingly soulful […]

It’s been approximately 15 days since spring break has ended and yes, I’ve been keeping count. Some of us have gone straight from spring bliss to exams and the separation anxiety from spring break is at an all time high. Being attached to a desk and a computer for an extended amount of time makes […]

The money, the cars, the clothes, and the h**es, have all become typical topics in this game that we call rap. Don’t get us wrong, we love this music! But dropping five hundred stacks on a Tuesday at the strip club… A little too rich for our blood. Sometimes, we long to hear something more […]

Adventure, aptly named, feels like a human journey. “La Lune” addresses the melancholic proposition of aging, featuring vocalist Dan Smith from the band Bastille. “OK” is an anthem to happiness with no labels or cause- simply the feeling. “Pay No Mind” featuring Passion Pit, an addictive banger, encourages independence and love. From beginning to end, Adventure […]

In the modern age, women still have trouble being respected and equalized in various professions and cultural importance across the board. However, I feel in music women are the front runners and ground-breakers leading the way for the zeitgeist and trends of each decade. This is even more potent when they stand together and use […]

TDE signee Schoolboy Q lit the TDECU Stadium stage on Saturday night with his appearance at UH’s annual Frontier Fiesta. Atlantic Records artist PJ opened up the show with her set of R&B and classic songs. She got the crowd warmed up and ready to go with her single “Nickels and Dimes,” which talks about […]

I met with Handsomebeast, a Houston band who classifies themselves as a funky-space-rock-bump-n-grind genre, at Spider House this past weekend in Austin. In a world where everything is classified as indie rock it was refreshing that a sub-category was provided. The boys grew up in the same part of town and all ended up at Loyola […]
