How the Wiggles influenced your favorite artists, from Lil Nas X to the Kid LAROI

With their new covers album ReWiggled and a legion of lifelong fans in the Kid LAROI, Lil Nas X and more, there’s never been a better time to Wiggle.

THE BLSSM manipulated genre and emotion to create their ‘PURE ENERGY’ EP

If there’s one thing Lily Lizotte loves more than making fantastic pop music, it’s a good double meaning.  Planted in nearly every song by THE BLSSM — the 24-year-old’s self-described blissful pop project — is a feeling of both happiness and sadness, competing with each other through lyrics that mean one thing and a chorus […]

How Denzel Curry grew from a SoundCloud giant to a legacy builder

THERE COMES A CERTAIN POINT IN AN ARTIST’S CAREER where the creative anxiety settles.

push baby were born out of a desire for freedom, the same sonic escape they now offer listeners. Shedding themselves from their mainstream past as Rixton, the now self-described “chaotic pop” duo—composed of vocalist Jake Roche and guitarist Charley Bagnall—have found their new home in Roche’s mom’s garage. With the launch of their indie label […]
