Fitz and the Tantrums is the self-titled third studio album from the indie pop group Fitz and the Tantrums. While the band ambitiously messes with its sound, the sound itself might not be for everyone – including past fans.

Unlike the lull of Houston traffic this past Tuesday night, Vince Staples and Rocky Black turned the intimate setting of The Studio at Warehouse Live upside down.
If you’re looking to be temporarily transported musically to the streets of East LA this summer, look no further because Chicano Batman is going to be at Free Press Summer Fest.
Discovering new music is the most gratifying feeling ever. Even if the music I find is a year or two old, it is still refreshingly new to my ears and I’ll annoy my friends to no end playing their songs. Recently I’ve been listening to a lot more experimental and indie bands in my free […]
Last Thursday night Young Thug dropped Slime Season 3 giving the hip hop community yet another Thugger album. At 8 tracks, this is the shortest project that Thugger has given his fans, but luckily it is much easier to digest after the first few listens. http://gty.im/478838649
Since the release of The Life of Pablo less than two weeks ago, Yeezy season has been reawakened within the hip-hop community. Among the endless “Father Stretch My Hands” memes and Kanye tweets, a video directed by Steve McQueen for Kanye’s All Day has also resurfaced.

For hip-hop, rap, and r&b lovers everywhere, this week was an amazing week for music. From a new Rihanna and Drake song, to J. Cole’s album, to twitter beef, it felt like everyday there was something new to marvel at. Let’s recap, shall we?
The last two years has certainly been a journey for Anderson .Paak. From being an opener for Watsky’s All You Can Do Tour, releasing his first debut studio album “Venice,” to being a key feature on Dr. Dre’s “Compton,” it’s no surprise to see .Paak has outdone himself once again on his newly released project, “Malibu.”
If you’ve seen Tame Impala’s past music videos for “Cause I’m A Man” and “Let It Happen,” off his most recent album, Currents, you know how bizarrely out of this world the visuals are and how it goes oh so perfectly together with the tracks.
Kendrick and J. Cole have surprised the internet this past Friday by both releasing two tracks where they cover each other’s beats. After treating yourself to plenty of platefuls of thanksgiving goodies and late night shopping, prepare to treat your ears to Kendrick Lamar’s and J. Cole’s “Black Friday”s.
The internet is an endless vortex that can easily suck you in, and before you know it, it’s 2 am and you’re looking at D.I.Y. videos on YouTube with no actual intentions of going through with any of the projects. It was one of those nights when I decided I needed to step up my music game. […]
Much like in the past, Kali Uchis delivers one hell of a music video that includes her homeland Colombia and plenty of hip-heavy dancing.
In a touching “Kanye-inspired” tribute to his friends, family, and current “Family Matters” tour, Chance The Rapper gives us a taste of what happens backstage in his new video, “Family Matters.”
Childish Gambino, multi-talented rapper, actor, writer, comedian, singer, and even talented cover-artist. Is there anything Gambino can’t do? Honestly, the answer’s probably no. On October 1, the low-key rapper crawled from under his collective rock to bless the internet with a cover of Tamia’s “So Into You” on the radio station Triple J. For those […]
I know what you’re all thinking. Kanye West collaborated with another artist who’s not himself!?
