It's that time of year again. The holidays are upon us, December is flying by, it's getting colder (in theory- Nashville did not so much get the memo on that one), and the music industry is mostly on an extended vacation. Record releases have basically come to a halt, tours are winding down, awards season is preparing to gear up, and basically every single magazine and website that writes about music is releasing a year-end list in some form or another. We at No Country are preparing our own year-end lists for release very soon, but in the time being [...]
Sam Schube on hip-hop’s “fantasy football” period: grab whoever you can, pretend you’re all pals, and use that association to sell records.
I love Kanye and I love the new album. 2 Chainz is everywhere these days.
Everything about Cruel Summer is steeped in grandiosity, but that's not always a good thing. While Cruel Summer appears much later into Kanye West's headlining career, it's hard to avoid comparisons to Jay-Z's similar minded The Dynasty, released in 2000.

And names are certainly plastered here. Aside from Mos Def, any vocal name you might...

Iniziamo dal video di "Mercy", uscito qualche settimana fa, che vi proponiamo a inizio post.

POP ETC share with us their favourite tracks of the year. From Carly Rae Jepsen to Kanye West, these are all massive pop tunes. Usher - Climax Love how understated the hook is on this song. Arrangement is sparse and perfect. Beautiful vocal performance and sound. Just a wonderful song all around. Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe This song is kind of all chorus, but it's a really, really, really great chorus. Kanye West - [...]

Back in early Spring Phil Elverum or Mount Eerie announced that he was releasing two albums this year under that moniker. I already shared " House Shape " and " Lone Bell " from the first album Clear Moon , which is a beautiful record from start to finish. Now, the first new music has emerged from the second LP Ocean Roar . The song is titled "Pale Lights," which starts out heavy, but quickly quiets down to almost complete silence and haunting vocals linger over an organ. Then just when you think the [...]

Think about getting your ass kicked. Rather, think about the moments that lead up to you getting your ass kicked. If you are about to get into a fight, it would be nice to have some backup. It’s not that you can’t handle yourself, and you need your friends to do the work, it’s more about the comfort and security of it. Like if anything gets out of control, you’ll be okay. Some of those friends may be smaller and weaker than you, therefore not worth much in the fight. Some of those friends may [...]
