The Ten Best Rising Artists at Rolling Loud 2019
Could one of these rappers be the next big thing?
South Florida’s Jake Miller Won’t Stop Till He’s a “Household Name”
With his sweetheart smile and bad-boy biceps, Jake Miller looks like the pop star that record labels could only dream of sculpting. But he has more than good looks and catchy hooks: He has a backbone. Originally a rapper from Weston, Florida, Miller etched his name onto the Billboard charts…
Interpol’s Daniel Kessler on Upcoming EP: “It’s a Fresh New Take”
Interpol is one of the hardest-working low-key bands on the indie scene. So it’s no surprise that when the trio completed its sixth album, Marauder, there was plenty of leftover material. Last August, the bandmates released Marauder, on which they collaborated with Flaming Lips and MGMT producer Dave Fridmann. Interpol guitarist and…
The Rapid Rise of Rolling Loud, the Nation’s Predominant Hip-Hop Festival
Four years ago, the inaugural Rolling Loud festival was a humble one-day event held in Wynwood.

That’s nothing to scoff at…

How Tame Impala Taught Me to Love Pop Music
“New Person, Same Old Mistakes” was covered by Rihanna, and he’s since collaborated with the likes of Lady Gaga, Mark Ronson and Travis Scott — the kinds of artists I probably would have sneered at before I fell in love with Currents.
Yungblud on the Next Wave of Activists: “I Have So Much Faith in My Generation”
“I want to talk about real shit.” Yungblud, AKA Dominic Harrison, explains what drove him, a Brit, to write a song called “Machine Gun (Fuck the NRA).” He’s speaking to New Times by phone from Los Angeles in the most charming accent this side of Peppa Pig. “I want to…

Judas Priest’s Rob Halford: “I’m Like the Heavy-Metal Michael Jackson”
Remember those black-and-white parental advisory stickers? The music industry used to slap them on CDs to warn parents about explicit content. Well, you can thank Judas Priest for them — at least in part. Priest’s “Eat Me Alive,” along with songs by Prince, Def Leppard, Madonna, and the Disney-princess-like Sheena…

What’s the minimum number of screens in your peripheral at any given moment? When’s the last time you watched a movie or read a book without also intermittently scrolling your Instagram feed?

Why K-Pop Is on Fire
I spent the summer of 1999 in Seoul mesmerized by the K-pop music videos that ran on repeat on the TV set in my grandparents’ high-rise apartment. I swooned over the members of the then-popular boy band H.O.T., and I yearned to be in a girl group like S.E.S or…
