New Music Alert: “Wasting Time” by Dadadoh + The POC

At this point in my career, it’s far too redundant to say that Dadadoh “just keeps getting better” or “is an artist everyone should be paying attention to” so let’s just assume those points are implicit henceforth for all future coverage. Agreed? I mean, we’re all friends here, right? After 2019’s Wowee showed the artist in pivot mode, “Wasting Time” ups the ante in a shocking way…

Music Video of the Week | “Rap God [Remix]” by Dax

This isn’t just a trick you catch in passing and quickly lose interest in. This is a performance that commands attention…

New Music Alert | “Bright Blue” by KRXS

KRXS dropped this new lyric video for his single “Bright Blue” which comes to us from his brand-spanking-new EP, Songs Your Parents Will Hate. The Phoenix artist occasionally navigates the dangerous waters of rap-rock on his EP, but this track is a pop punk banger. “Bright Blue” brings a breath of romance to us in this dreary world and delivers it with some house shaking energy – if your speakers can handle it…
