AlunaGeorge‘s “Attracting Flies” was accurately described by Stereogum as “probably the sweetest song about telling someone he is full of shit”. It also serves as the first time I’ve officially understood the growing hype around the English duo, who have gained both critical and public […]

Little Boots: “Motorway”
Singer-songwriter Victoria Hesketh, better known to the world as Little Boots, has made deliriously wonderful electro-pop singles since 2009, when she released the completely amazing triumverate of “New In Town“, “Remedy” and “Earthquake“. If you read music blog,s she is probably a household name and […]
Frank Ocean: “Eyes Like Sky”
I am irritated. Much as I adore Frank Ocean, he constantly serves as a reminder that the gay media doesn’t care about black male musical artists unless they’re against us or “one of us“. They’ll swoon and throw their panties on the stage every time Justin Timberlake […]
Brendan Maclean: “Stupid”
Now that we’re a healthy week’s distance from Valentine’s Day, it seems like the perfect time to put down the cans of frosting at 2AM and attempt to transfer focus to a less physically detrimental form of therapy. Namely, musical. Remember last year, when Australian […]
Matt Cardle: “Lately”
Matt Cardle is half-naked in the music video for his new song “Lately”. This would be much more exciting if I could tolerate Cardle’s falsetto and overly schmaltzy songwriting, but whatever! He’s vaguely famous on the other side of the pond, and we never turn […]

Stevie Wonder, Prince, Erykah Badu, Bon Iver and Jill Scott can’t all be wrong about Is Your Love Big Enough?, the debut album from Lianne La Havas. Those are just a few of the famous fans who’ve hopped on board with the English artist’s soulful blend […]
Phoenix: “Entertainment”
Fresh off their two biggest radio hits ever, Phoenix are back to rock your world with their new single “Entertainment”. Now, much as it’s great to hear new material from the French band, I will wholeheartedly admit that this track didn’t hit me as hard as “1901” […]
DaQuan: “Molly Ringwald”
Get ready to feel old, ’80s kids! Actress Molly Ringwald—star of the John Hughes classics Sixteen Candles, Pretty In Pink and The Breakfast Club—turned 44 years-old today. One of our favorite soon-to-breakout musicians, DaQuan of Sgt. Sass, is celebrating the occasion with an early release […]
5 Reasons You Should Drop Everything & Listen to DeShawn Timothy’s “Merge” EP
DeShawn Timothy of Philly duo Sgt. Sass released a brand new solo EP, and I refuse to understand why, right at this exact moment, you’re doing anything that doesn’t involve listening to it… So stop sipping coffee, jerking off, breathing, eating a banana or whatever the fuck you’re […]
Would You Hit That?: Justin Timberlake
The music video for Justin Timberlake‘s “Suit & Tie” premiered today! Considering we’ve already written about the song—and grown to love it even more since then—we thought it’d be super lame to just post the new clip and call it a night… So, uh, here’s […]
