The last time I saw Morrissey, it was at the currently-under-construction Congress Theatre in Chicago. It was a bad show. Moz started high and took a slow dive that turned into a cannonball right around the time that he performed the vegan anthem “Barbarism Begins at Home” to a backdrop of videos of animals being […]
Here is Lil Mama, everyone’s favorite lip gloss enthusiast and “America’s Best Dance Crew” judge, slinging breakfast meat and safe sex in her latest video for the song “Sausage.” Sausage, in this case, is a breakfast meat, but also my favorite euphemism for the penis, and Lil Mama is pushing hard for safe sex. Rapping over a […]
Daylight Savings Time is over, which means that night comes at 4 PM these days, which in turn means that 500,000 Americans will be sinking under our blankets and into our seasonal affective disorder soon. We will also be engaging in the ritual of indulging our completely unnecessary, sun-affected sadness by playing sad, sad songs […]
In case there was any doubt about it, I’m a big-time feminist. I will rant and rave for hours about feminist theory, problematic “feminist” celebs (looking at you, Meghan Trainor), and how the patriarchy has wronged every single one of us.

When and where will it happen? My personal experience involved my high school boyfriend’s bed, some candles, and Dave Matthews playing […]
Pause your Spotify and listen to Kelly Rowland’s new song “Dirty Laundry” (after the jump) — not only is it intense, but it’s really good. She sings about how hard it was for her to watch her “sister” Beyoncé get A+++-list famous while Kelly was “going through some bullshit,” mostly, it seems, an abusive relationship: “Meanwhile […]
Thursday night, Frank Ocean released new music, not from his long-awaited album Boy Don’t Cry, but another album entirely. Everyone’s patiently (and not-so-patiently) waited for his new tunes for way too long, so you should probably check it out ASAP. Here’s how to listen to Endless. Ocean’s 18-track visual album was released exclusively on Apple Music. Ocean initially […]
Tony Visconti is a British music producer who worked with the late David Bowie throughout his career. He is also a flappy-jawed man who, because he knows so much about music, is convinced that Adele’s voice isn’t 100% natural. As a music-producin’ man with a considerable amount of experience under his belt, surely whatever it is he has […]
Die hard Radiohead fans can now rest easy, for their band has at last released their highly anticipated new album [which they also just released the name of] called A Moon Shaped Pool. And also have returned to the internet after doing a disappearing act as part of their publicity stunt. Fans have been waiting since April […]
