Everything We Know (And Don’t Know) About Kendrick Lamar and the ‘South Park’ Creators’ Comedy Film
A collaboration between Kendrick Lamar, Dave Free and South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone wasn’t exactly in our bingo card. What do a Pulitzer-winning rapper and a music exec have in common with television trailblazers anyway?

24 Hours After: Night One of Dijon’s NYC Run
The morning after the Dijon concert, I came down with a case of the worst post-concert-depression I’ve experienced since the last time I saw Dijon perform live. I almost called out of work.For context, that was at the Re:SET Festival back at Forest Hills Stadium in summer of 2023. The lineup on the day I ensured I had a ticket for was Dijon, Clairo, and Boygenius. Mk.gee played the guitar before anyone even knew who Mk.gee was. It was the show that Justin and Hailey Bieber went to; the one when the videos of the two of them vibing side-stage to Dijon went slightly viral on many a music social media algorithm.In support of my gripe with music festival scheduling and time-slotting, Dijon’s set was just about a half hour, but until last night, that half hour was one of the best half hours of ...
