12 September 2019
After the announcement of a new album and a tour, I decided to go back through Bombay Bicycle Club’s catalog, especially their 2014 LP So Long, See You Tomorrow, one of my favorites from that year…

Eternal – Chance The Rapper
1 August 2019
Chance The Rapper is back with his debut album, The Big Day. Chances’ track, “Eternal”-featuring Smino- is a particular ode to the theme of this very fun, celebratory, and joyous album. This is a song about how having someone on the side doesn’t quite measure up to having a forever love with someone special. This a silly track that pokes fun at side pieces and their incapabilities…

Addiction – Kanye West
25 June 2019
If you have been a Kanye fan from the beginning, and still love him despite him now, you are cool in my book. Kanye has some of the coldest songs in history. I love this song because I feel like he is speaking his truth while relating to others, which is what all rappers try to do I guess but not all succeed…
Right Side Of My Neck – Faye Webster
