May 24 Young Money’s Latest Signing Chanel West Coast Visits rock nyc
The hard thing to keep in sight is that she is a self-made woman. In press releases and MTV shows, there are two realities sort of colliding but speaking to her, she’s just a kid who has worked very very hard to put herself in a position to succeed

May 24 Daughter At Amoeba, Wednesday May 22nd 2013
Despite all this darkness and bleakness, the trio was very jovial, Elena Tonra was giggling all the time, and she thanked many times the crowd for ‘being so nice’. They have just released their first LP ‘If You Leave’, were signing copies after the show, and all these people in line had certainly perceived the emotional and painful beauty of Daughter’s songs

May 24 I Downloaded The New The National Off ITunes…
I am not a huge National fan, if I were I would have bought it on Tuesday when it was released, the same way I did with Vampire Weekend. Tuesday is new music day and there is so much on Spotify I won’t usually buy much off Itunes

So what do you think, is it inventive and classy or pretentious and self-centered? People are saying it has to be a girl because of the girlie nature of the invite, but who knows with these two?

May 24 Brian May, “The Voice Is An Insult To Music”
That fluffy headed guy from the legendary band Queen ended up being one of the coolest dudes ever. Brian May is an absurdly educated, animal and social activist who is not only articulate but forthright in his strong opinions and beliefs.

May 24 Hear Ye: What rock nyc Is Listening To 5-24-13
I will have conducted my interview with Chanel West Coast by the time you read this, but as of now, I just have the videos of these two songs. She raps pretty I’ve seen a video of Chanel straight up rapping over beats and she was excellent. On the other hand, the last two tracks are songs my Mom, who died in 2010, used to sing to me . Florrie Ford is British Dancehall, I don’t know whpo the other guy is.

May 23 Randy Blythe Words of Wisdom For Us All, “Be Carefully”
I cannot tell you what it is like to look into the eyes of a mother whose son is dead as result of attending a concert by your group, his favorite band. I cannot tell you what it is like to hold her tiny hands as she weeps for her dead boy; to hold those hands in your large hands, the same hands accused of killing her son. I cannot tell you in any words what it’s like to feel that grief for her lost only child

May 23 Why Is Ezra Miller Not The Face Of His Generation?
In the midst of a disappointing movie, he consistently made me smile. The face of his generation? Although a child of privilege, Ezra is a super everyman. His next movie is Madame Bovary so it might have to wait a year.
