Trump’s Lawyers Used Madonna and Johnny Depp in Impeachment Defense
Madonna (photo by Paul Morigi), Donald Trump, and Johnny Depp (photo via YouTube) Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial has been taking place over the past few days, and his lawyers haven’t been doing that great of a job defending him. For example, on Friday they argued that Democrats have previously used the same type of provocative language that Democrats are now claiming the former president used to incite the Capitol siege. To prove their point, Trump’s lawyers played a video that featured “fight” rhetoric used by Madonna and Johnny Depp, neither of whom provoked a violence insurrection. Trump’s attorney David Schoen accused the House impeachment managers of deceptively editing Trump’s words in their own video, which focused on Trump’s rallying cries on January 6th that were the...
Ryley Walker Announces New Album Course in Fable, Shares “Rang Dizzy”: Stream
Ryley Walker has announced the new album Course in Fable. It arrives April 2nd from his own Husky Pants Records, and you can catch a preview with the winding, witty “Rang Dizzy”. Walker’s last album in the traditional sense of the word was 2018’s Deafman Glance, though with its leisurely instrumental interludes, ‘traditional’ might be a bit of a stretch. He followed that with The Lillywhite Sessions, a not-especially-faithful cover of a lost Dave Matthews Band record, the jazzy Charles Rumback collaboration Little Common Twist, and, last week, the jam-heavy live set Deep Fried Grandeur performed with Kikagaku Moyo. Over the last three years he’s been busy, bordering on prolific, but the music hasn’t always accommodated itself to popular tastes. If “Rang Dizzy” is any in...

How to Watch Justin Bieber’s TikTok Valentine’s Day Concert
All that matters this Valentine’s Day is Justin Bieber‘s first-ever performance of his 2013 album Journals. Journals was Bieber’s third compilation album that he recorded during his Believe Tour from 2012 to 2013, which he dropped as a string of digital singles for his Music Mondays series from October-December 2013. The collection of R&B-leaning sensual tracks begot the pop superstar’s swagged-out “Biebervelli” alter ego and molded the R&Bieber he eventually resurrected for his Changes era earlier last year. Journals notched the Biebs four No. 1 hits on Billboard‘s R&B Digital Song Sales chart in 2013: his earliest Chance the Rapper collab “Confident,” “Recovery,”...
First Spin: The Week’s Best New Dance Tracks From Moore Kismet, Imanbek & Rita Ora, Surf Mesa & More
Moore Kismet, “Rumor” It’s never easy growing up. Teenagers are little balls of flesh and exploding chemicals forced to sit in school chairs and memorize algebraic equations they’ll soon forget. Meanwhile, the wounds we suffer during those years, physically and emotionally, go on to create the scaffolding of the humans we become. How we shape ourselves around the hurt is an on-going process that takes a lifetime to emerge, but if we’re kind to ourselves, we find space for beauty in the pain. That’s what Moore Kismet and WYN carved with their complex, texture-rich single “Rumor,” the first single from the producer’s forthcoming debut LP. Kismet is young, to be sure, but the quickly-rising star crafts deeply-stirring character with crackling vinyl noise, deep-wa...
