TRUMP: I looked at his ass, and I've never done that with a man before. By the way, I looked at one hell of a beautiful ass before: Nicki Minaj. That's hard to miss.

"Top", and then "Latest", the latter referring to Lauryn Hill.

There's just zero chance I'm going to make it to the theatrical release of "Avengers: Doomsday" without having every significant surprise spoiled, isn't there.

The vinyl album of Jungle Brothers "Straight Out The Jungle" is a totem of a precious memory. It was a Saturday night in 1988 and I was sitting next to Magnus Johnstone in the Lecco's Lemma WZBC studio, and he took the record out and handed the sleeve to me to look at. 1/5

I used to participate in Producers Corner sample challenges, had a lot of fun and won a couple times. I haven't competed in a while, but recently they've had to explicitly ban A.I.-generated submissions. I don't know what that would sound like, but I hope I'd hear the difference.

I was born in 1972, a year before Herc's Back To School Jam. Which doesn't make me older than hip-hop; the elements were compounding for a while by then. But I AM older than rap on record. Nothing I did, it's just how time works. Shout out to my fellow pre-rap-record dinosaurs.

The Tree Body Problem. boxd.it/gVShYh

Review of ‘Wildwood’ (2026) ★★

THE TREE BODY PROBLEM. Well this was quite a disappointment. I was sure I'd enjoy this a lot more than I did, mainly because of how much I've loved Laika Studio's past projects. This is visually…

STOCKHOLMES SYNDROME. I hadn't really planned on spending my day watching a three-hour documentary about a subject I know almost nothing about; I haven't even watched "The Dropout". But the…

LA SHITÉE. Ugh. Dammit. I really wanted to like this, and going into it I fully expected I would. But I can't escape the impression that this is just "Everything Everywhere All At Once" for the…

When Trump said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose supporters, this is the kind of blind loyalty he was talking about.

Review of ‘Tenzing’ (2026) ★★★★

HIGH HOPES. I think this is excellent. There's basically no surprises, at least for anyone my age or older who grew up reading about this adventure; but art must allow for the inevitability that…

I know it says "rock" so this isn't an accusation, but I can't help feeling that overlooking artists like Clyde Stubblefield, Zigaboo Modeliste, Jabo Starks & Funky Brown is like when people debate "best 70s albums" between Floyd, Zep & F.Mac without mentioning "What's Going On".

Let’s settle a different rock argument: Who was the BEST drummer of the 60s/70s? Bonham? Moon? Baker? Mitchell? Or are we forgetting somebody?
The 60s and 70s gave rock some extraordinary drummers. Who sits at the top of your list?
