Busta Rhymes has unveiled “Magic,” a tribute song to his late friend and neo-soul icon D’Angelo. Rapping over the singer’s own classic 2000 single “One Mo’Gin,” the often frenetic Rhymes spends several minutes lovingly celebrating both the man and the artist.

In a corresponding interview with OkayPlayer, Rhymes detailed his 34-plus-year friendship with D’Angelo. The two met circa 1990 when the young singer…

We introduced you to Johannes Arzberger a few weeks ago, with his “NBGL” – an ethereal chill electronic piece with rich, garage-inspired drums. The German jazz musician & composer just unveiled the 3rd single off his upcoming album Rebirth – “Oort Dust”. Unlike the previous one, this song pays homage to the trip-hop era – with all its melancholy, darkness & beauty. “Oort Dust” is together with beatmaker 7apes (also a co-composer of the album) and carries raw drums, dreamy & nostalgic guitars, prominent basslines, and spacey synths. The upcoming Rebirth “tells the mesmerizing sci-fictional story of an abstract existence…
Roddy Bottum has no faith in Faith No More reuniting. In a new interview, the multi-instrumentalist and longtime member of the band was less than optimistic about the possibility of FNM getting back together. The group hasn’t been active in nearly a decade and most recently canceled a run of 2021 concerts due to Mike Patton’s mental health issues in the wake of COVID lockdowns. In the conversation with Greg Prato of Alternative Nation, Bottum was asked if he would consider playing more shows with Faith No More, to which he replied: “I don’t think so. No.” This after drummer…
