Wolfacejoeyy has mastered the sexy drill singalong
Wolfacejoeyy has to hand it to his mother. “My mom always told me, ‘You know you can sing right?’” the Staten Island rapper says. “I'm like, ‘Why are you telling me this? If I could sing I would know.’ Then I started recording music and I was like, ‘Hold on.

Anycia doesn’t believe in fear
It’s a Thursday in early April and Anycia is calling me in the middle of getting her nails done. The 26-year-old rapper is supposed to be relaxing: she’s back in her hometown of Atlanta on one of her precious days off. She’d just done a show in New York the previous weekend, with an impending show in Seattle and a press run in LA.

tdf is making 808s big enough to blow your speakers up
tdf’s productions can bait a certain kind of rap fan, down to his drops. Littered across his projects RELIGION and BLUEPRINT are vicious insults sampled from Instagram Live: tdf is a dickrider, tdf fell off, tdf has the Cheese Touch; tdf wants to be Pi’erre Bourne so bad, tdf keeps putting “random ass n***as” on his beats, tdf is “the worst prod in history.” “I don’t really take that stuff seriously, so I just put it in there,” the 20-year-old tells me over the phone. Based in Minnesota, tdf (née Tyrese Jones) mostly collaborates over the Internet.

The heart and the tongue of Bear1Boss
When I hop on a Zoom call with Bear1Boss, he immediately notices the embarrassing amount of wrestling action figures displayed on the bedroom wall behind me. Like wrestling fans tend to do when they meet a fellow member of the tribe, we start debating our personal GOATs. Turns out we have the same favorite wrestler: CM Punk, the scrappy underdog from Chicago who swaggers to the ring to the massive riffs of Living Colour’s “Cult of Personality” and never backs down from a fight.

5 essential, unstreamable mixtapes you can hear on the Internet Archive
Online music is inherently precarious — if a physical recording of something is never made, it’s dangerously easy to erase any sign that it ever existed. With mass layoffs in the wake of Bandcamp’s sale from Epic Games to Songtradr, as well as the recent announcement that Soundcloud is seeking a buyer in a potentially billion-dollar deal, there are understandable concerns about the future of the music that’s been uploaded on those platforms.

Breaking down Playboi Carti’s stream-subverting album rollout
A vicious debate rages across the internet this month, with manifestos etched into comment sections and forum threads. Picking the best Playboi Carti single out of the past four weeks is less an objective critical exercise than a musical Rorschach.

6 artists who are keeping Milwaukee rap essential
So often, when regional rap scenes blow up nationally, they’re treated too much as a passing novelty: a city has its moment in the sun, and then it’s on to the next one. Just as frequently, the popularity of regionally-specific sounds doesn’t actually benefit artists from those areas very much.

Hip-hop’s dangerous bet on the gambling industry
Earlier this month, Drake posted a black-and-white video to his Instagram Reels, set to the contemplative strains of Wiz Khalifa’s “See You Again.” But instead of a heartfelt salute to Paul Walker, Drake repurposed the ballad to pay tribute to something else: gambling. As Charlie Puth croons and piano keys twinkle in memory of Vin Diesel’s fallen bestie, we see clips from the past year of Drake risking millions of dollars on virtual roulette, anxiously ripping a hookah at his kitchen counter as he stares intently at his computer screen and roleplays his own private Uncut Gems.

The best guest verses of 2023
The art of the rap feature is competitive and collaborative in equal measure. A good guest verse isn’t just well-executed, but a way of opening up new facets of a song, whether it’s finding new pockets in the beat or complicating emotional motifs with shades of nuance.

How vinyl editions of mixtapes reveal the conflict at the heart of hip-hop’s 50th anniversary
This year has been filled with countless tributes to rap history, from live concerts with legacy acts to block parties hosted by New York City cop-in-chief Eric Adams (complete with a drone light show). But more than a celebration of history, “HipHop50” is very much a marketing campaign.

DJ Envy’s scandal shows the darker side of rap hustle

AGGRO DR1FT expands the Travis Scott branded universe
If you were one of the few people who caught an IMAX screening of Christopher Nolan’s Tenet when theaters were still largely locked down, you might have seen the music video for Travis Scott’s song “Franchise” ahead of the film. The fawning IMAX press release makes the short video clip sound like a banquet for the senses, boasting of “powerful precision sound and the highest quality crystal clear imagery on the biggest screens.” The collaboration speaks to how Scott has positioned himself as an artist: more than the music, the Travis Scott brand is about visual spectacle.

Ghostwriter’s vision of music is all machine, no heart
In April, an anonymous music producer known only as Ghostwriter made headlines with a song called “Heart on my Sleeve.” Using AI-assisted tools, Ghostwriter was able to create glitchy facsimiles of Drake and the Weeknd’s vocals known as “deep fakes,” bringing the two artists together for a collaboration the pair had nothing to do with. Tens of millions of TikTok plays and a Universal Music Group takedown later, he’s ready for his close-up.

The legacy of Mexican rap innovator Lefty SM, in 5 songs
Much has been made over hip-hop’s supposed decline in 2023, but if you look past what we conventionally define as “rap,” the genre’s influence is all over the charts. Nowhere is that more evident than the meteoric rise of regional Mexican folk, a sound that’s steeped in over a century of musical traditions while refreshingly open to the new.
