Forget about your parents’ stupid rock ‘n’ roll. That shit’s for old people. The Fillmore’s always packed for the monthly Honeymoon Series party, when the room quakes with dark, and violent party music for the kids. Space is now selling tickets for a special Thanksgiving weekend performance by Steve Angello…
It’s a proven fact that the hottest thing in rock ‘n’ roll is a woman on drums. So Crossfade is superstoked that Tom Tom Magazine, the only print publication focused on female percussionists, will be bringing a notable showcase of lady drummers to Churchill’s Pub for Art Basel Miami Beach…

These days, former Goodie Mob member Cee-Lo Green is the Liberace of hip-pop. He wears sequined jumpsuits with effortless flair. He can’t be without his baby grand for more than 24 hours. And he totally loves South Beach. But while the King of Bling (as Wladziu Valentino Liberace was nicknamed)…
Last month, Crossfade reported a series of seizures suffered by M.I.Yayo’s own Teflon Don, Rick Ross. The mess started aboard a flight from Ft. Lauderdale to Mephis, where Rozay was opening a brand new Wing Stop franchise. And matters only got worse when The Bawse checked himself out of the…
On October 6, booty bass boss, First Amendment enthusiast, and weekly New Times columnist Luther Campbell (AKA Uncle Luke) issued an ultimatum to Weezy’s YMCMB crew and other “freeloading” rappers like them. “I have a message for Lil Wayne, his Cash Money brothers, DJ Khaled, Puff Daddy, and all the…
For the past 356 days, the Design District’s most devoted boozers and fanatical music lovers have been regularly letting loose at a classy NE 38th Street joint called The Stage, draining goblets of Chivas at the bar, sleeping on the sofas in the parking-lot lounge, and drunkenly two-stepping on the…
After the money, sex, and drugs, the best part of being a rock star is the ability to ask for absolutely anything — even shit you don’t really want — and then throw a nuclear-strength temper tantrum when you don’t get it. The ridiculously outrageous rider request is like an…
Man, oh man! We had the weirdest dream last night. Well, to start things off, Sebadoh was there. Y’know, the weepy and weird side-project-turned-anti-band started by Lou Barlow when his mid-’90s feuding with fellow Dinosaur Jr. bandmate, guitarist and singer J. Mascis, forced his exit. But, like, in stark contrast…
Not too long ago, Ex Norwegian was one of those Miami bands that everyone had to see play. The group’s debut album, Standby, was amazingly well received. Reviewers would offer glowing praises like explodingsound.com’s “Standby is a stellar pop album that should be widely embraced.” Likewise, the follow up, Sketch,…
UPDATE Au Revoir Simone’s Miami show has now been moved to Grand Central. And it’s free! Even as Crossfade continues to closely monitor Art Basel Miami Beach music and party news, we’re already looking beyond the early-December art extravaganza, working our sources and scouring the interweb for the scoop on…
Halloween’s known as a holiday for freaks. Crazy shit goes down, people lose their inhibitions and let loose. For one night every year, you can be whomever you want — be it a werewolf, skinhead, or the Virgin Mary — and no one’s going to judge you for it. That…
Neither the dot-com bubble or the more recently burst housing bubble have got shit on the compact disc bubble of the ’90s. And the reasons are precisely why the recording industry is preparing to officially announce the death of the CD. CDs are supercheap to make, way cheaper than either…
