Everything We Loved in Music This Week: March 1 – March 7
Live updates landing here throughout the week.Nettspend's Lookbook for the Early Life Crisis Tracklist View this post on InstagramA post shared by Hypetrak (@hypetrak) Leave it to Nettspend to delay the album – and then do the most when it's time for it to actually drop. Last week, Nett had all eyes on the expected release of his globally eyed Early Life Crisis album. In true Nett fashion, in the eleventh hour, plans changed; instead of dropping the album, he delayed it and walked in Demna's debut Gucci runway in Milan instead. A fair trade, to be quite honest. This week, the rapper returned to his ELC rollout with valor, promising a March 6 release date, preceded by quite the dynamic tracklist reveal. Instead of a typical announcement, he had a lineup of fans pose in the album's merch and...

The Beauty in Teppei Ono’s Cathartic Clay
Teppei Ono is a celebrated Japanese contemporary ceramic artist whose practice is a powerful dialogue between raw, untamed energy and the quiet resilience of everyday life. Born in 1958, his path began with a deep rebellion against the constraints of modern society, driving him to seek freedom through the elemental medium of clay.After apprenticing in the historic pottery center of Tokoname under the legendary Ryoji Koie, Ono moved to the serene mountains of Kochi Prefecture in 1998. Living a disciplined, rhythmic life surrounded by nature, he kneads local Kochi clay by hand and fires it in wood-burning kilns he built himself. This intimate process is often physical and even "violent"; he has described his early work as an outlet for sharp, aggressive impulses. However, at the age of 40, h...
Rap’s Underground Took Over Demna’s Gucci Debut
If there's one thing about Demna: he's tapped in. For his big Gucci debut on the Milan Fashion Week runway, the Balenciaga-hailing Creative Director pulled out all of the stops – specifically from the underground hip-hop scene, that is.Gvasalia personally tapped a lineup of underground hip-hop artists to show face at Gucci's Fall/Winter 2026 show, sourcing a bunch of talent from the budding UK underground scene. Larger musicians – Kaytranada, Rico Nasty, and Steve Lacy included – were all in attendance to view the collection as per usual for any Demna affair, but it was the shocking slate of faces from the UK underground's new guard that stole the show.From runway cameos by fakemink and Nettspend to a Feng, Fimiguerrero, and Rico Ace-filled FROW, Demna has done it again; he has asserted hi...
