Lil Uzi Vert saves the world

Ryan Israel | Thursday, March 19, 2020

The year is 2050, and after 30 years of trials and tribulations, intense social and political reform, scientific development and the abolition of country music, society has reached a state of perfection. Climate change has been reversed, diseases (and viruses) cured, poverty eliminated and war eradicated. Sweeping advancements and revolutionary ideas have propelled all of

Post Malone is maximum Post Malone on “Hollywood’s Bleeding”

Ryan Israel | Thursday, September 12, 2019

For a brief moment there was a conversation about whether or not Post Malone would be a one-hit wonder. His hit, the spacey, basketball-themed “White Iverson,” put him on the charts in early 2016, but his potential as a rap superstar wasn’t clear. People who took a look at him, with his gnarly long hair,

On ‘So Much Fun,’ Young Thug delivers accessible trap to the masses

Patrick Witteman | Monday, September 2, 2019

“So Much Fun” is billed as Young Thug’s debut album. Considering Thugger has been releasing (quality) mixtapes since the early 2010s, influencing the likes of Playboi Carti, Trippie Redd and Lil Uzi Vert, “So Much Fun” shouldn’t feel like a debut album. Young Thug has had years to develop and tweak his sound, avoiding the

With due dates approaching and tests looming, it can be hard to keep up with the latest music releases. That’s why the Scene writers picked out a few of their favorite new singles to keep you in the loop. “Give a Little” — Maggie Rogers By Margaret McGreevy, Scene Writer Maggie Rogers’ single “Give a

Young Thug stays iconic on ‘Slime Language’

Danny Liggio | Tuesday, August 28, 2018

Prior to “Slime Language,” Young Thug released his fluid, improbable mixtape, “Beautiful Thugger Girls.” His music on that mixtape was free from form and expectations — matching Thug’s signature vocals. It is an album that is at times nonsensical, and Young Thug, although he doesn’t make a lot of sense himself, captures the spirit of

Playboi Carti brings the energy on “Die Lit”

Ryan Israel | Wednesday, August 22, 2018

“Made a mil’ off that uh, off that mumblin’ sh– / Bought that crib for my mama off that mumblin’ sh–” exclaims Playboi Carti on “R.I.P.,” the second track from the Atlanta rapper’s debut studio album “Die Lit.” While some may discount Playboi Carti’s music as mumble rap, Carti, whose full name is Jordan Terrell

Calvin Harris reinvigorates sound through collaboration

Charlie Kenney | Thursday, April 6, 2017

If you’ve been to any bar, danced at any nightclub or owned a radio for the past five years — you’ve probably heard Calvin Harris. His commanding, melodic voice and pulsating rhythms have dominated the party and electronic music scene for nearly half of the past decade. Hits like “Feel So Close,” “Summer” and “My

On Drake’s ‘More Life’ and playlist albums

Adam Ramos | Tuesday, March 28, 2017

“More Life,” Drake’s latest playlist — yes, “playlist” — is a strong outing for the former “Degrassi” star. Though a positive review of the work doesn’t say much, all things considered. At 22 songs (too) long, “More Life” finds the Toronto rap star — accompanied by the hottest collaborators and producers in the game —

Frank’s State of the Ocean

Jack Riedy | Wednesday, March 22, 2017

Like everything he does these days, Frank Ocean’s new single “Chanel” appeared suddenly. Now streaming universally, the song feels equally appropriate on Friday night and on Monday morning. Other than his breezy appearance on Calvin Harris’ “Slide,” it is the reclusive singer’s first release since last year’s double-album whammy. Frank delivers his version of a State of

‘Wyclef Jean’ video captures Young Thug’s persona

Owen Lane | Friday, January 27, 2017

Last year, a handful of artists (mostly in hip-hop) experimented in the music video medium. Beyoncé’s “Lemonade” was a highly-acclaimed visual album that matched each of its songs with a music video. Frank Ocean released two albums in 2016, the strictly-musical “Blonde” and the audio-visual experience “Endless.” Even as far back as six years ago,
