By Elorm Nutakor For the second piece in a series of snapshots into the souls of the aughts, we look with disdain toward Pitchfork’s celebration of the year 1998. The publication’s series about 1998 has highlighted the top 50 albums of that year, the best music videos of that year, overlooked electronic albums and more. […]

By Elorm Nutakor Last Friday, 2 Chainz released “The Play Don’t Care Who Makes It” and Ravyn Lenae released “Crush,” her collaboration with Steve Lacy. Both are EPs with less than six tracks that run less than twenty minutes, and both are refreshing contrasts to Migos’ 24-track “Culture 2” that dropped two weeks prior. I […]

By Elorm Nutakor As 2017 winds down, I am inclined to reminisce about the past year. And this past year I’ve been filled with nostalgia for the 2000s decade. So I present this article as the first in a series of snapshots into the souls of people who grew up in the previous decade. It’s […]

“I Mean, it’s Not the Best Ever or Anything like that”

  • Posted on November 6, 2017
  • by Elena Cruz
  • in Music

By Elorm Nutakor I’m done hedging with my musical opinions, or at least I’d like to be. And that can mean a lot of things, but I’m more specifically talking about those moments when you feel a need to be critical about music, so you qualify a positive comment with an ambiguous statement that takes […]

By Elorm Nutakor When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for a man to honor the one and only Aubrey Graham in the month he was born, the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare their admiration. Every October, I like to take some time out of my busy schedule to […]

UOCK: Miguel is Not Working on a New Album…

By Elorm Nutakor It’s 5 a.m. in Toronto, and I sit at a flight terminal in Pearson International Airport, waiting for boarding call. Naturally, my headphones are blasting Drake’s “5AM in Toronto” as I soak in the moment. It’s clearly cause for celebration considering I just checked off another bucket list item. I’m on a […]

By: Elorm Nutakor I had a realization recently while listening to Wale’s The Album About Nothing. I’d listened to the album’s 14 tracks a few times through, but felt like something was off about it. In this case, my gripe was about the way the songs were arranged. Before I started considering how I would have arranged it, […]

  • in Blog, Music

By: Elorm Nutakor The 2015 album releases are in full swing and it’s practically overwhelming. Making time for repeated listens to your favorite artists’ projects is becoming almost impossible. Doing so, however is of the upmost importance as it allows a person to really grasp the artists’ message. As for the time constraints that plague us all, I […]

Review: Cave at True/False

  • Posted on March 11, 2015
  • by Iyas Daghlas
  • in Blog, Music

By: Elorm Nutakor True/False is really about the music, right? At least I vaguely remember Donnie T sarcastically saying something similar to this after Cave finished their set Friday night. Getting their start in Columbia back in 2006, the band now resides in Chicago, and they came back last weekend to play at True/False. Up until […]

  • Posted on February 25, 2015
  • by Iyas Daghlas
  • in Blog, Music

We all have one — an album that sparked a change in the way we listen to music and what we choose to listen to. Some of our music staff looked back into their history of music-listening and wrote about that one defining album that changed their perspective. Read about their experiences below: Lauren: Paper Route, Absence (2009) […]
