Remember Art Basel Miami Beach week in 2010? Our favorite memory: Metric at Art Loves Music. Of course, though, the punky Canadian pop band has been a dear favorite of indie kids for about a decade, ever since releasing show-stopping debut Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?. In fact,…
Cypress Hill With Action Bronson and ¡Mayday! Grand Central, Miami Tuesday, November 13, 2012 Better Than: The “giggle stick.” Grand Central’s main cave was filled with a thick and sticky cloud of party smoke well before beat one was dropped at last night’s Cypress Hill show. But despite the night…
Metro Zu is high above Miami on a cumulus of kush. They’re dropping acid rain on the people in the streets. They’re surfing through the County on a tidal wave of bass. They’re wide awake, they’re making tracks, they want to blow your mind. See also: -Metro Zu, O’Grime, and…
Amnesia is an inability to recall things because of brain damage. A story is something you have when lots of really exciting things happen in your life. Both can be caused by excessive amounts of drinking, and both can be really awesome clubs on South Beach, but not at the…
Despite once being “an essential mid-20th century] stopover on the Southern tour circuit for legends like Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, and Nat King Cole,” Miami was never a straight-up jazz town. Our city’s always been more about the crooners, salsa, disco, booty bass, freestyle, street rap, and electronic dance music…
You are the company you keep. Or so reads a self-righteous bumper sticker on the back of a Prius. And by that logic, Miami’s SpaceGhostPurrp is definitely not “a good nigga” like NYC’s A$AP Rocky. “I’m a good nigga, and a lot of people fuck with me and then leave…
Toronto electronic dance music outfit Azari & III reek so much of style that it’s disgusting. Pure unadulterated chic wafts off flamboyant vocalist-frontmen Fritz Helder and Starving Yet Full. And it oozes from the group’s intoxicating cocktail blend of classic house and electro. Azari & III exploded onto the international…
When Swedish House Mafia’s Sebastian Ingrosso, Axwell, and Steve Angello announced their career-ending One Last Tour, saying goodbye to 26 cities across every continent, we here at Crossfade lamented, “Miami’s not included.” But we also doubted “a group who had a huge hit called ‘Miami to Ibiza’ and makes an…
Wearing little more than a bad decision (read: underboob Iris tattoo) and a black, unzipped leather jacket draped over her bare shoulders, a nearly naked Rihanna will grace the cover of GQ’s Men of the Year issue. According to the magazine, “men straight lost their minds over” Rihanna in 2012,…
Stone Temple Pilots are widely considered one of the most prolific rock groups of the 1990s. The band has sold about 40 million records, released over a dozen top ten singles, and even won a Grammy for “Plush,” 1994’s Best Hard Rock Performance. Similarly, Velvet Revolver won Best Hard Rock…
Oh, no! Did you guys hear the news? Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are no longer pop’s cutest power couple. The adorable pair just called it quits, which is standard fare for an artist making the transition from boyish heartthrob to sexy man-ass. But if Crossfade’s totally fabricated timeline is…
House rose from the cracks of Chicago’s warehouse disco scene to be a global force in music. But just because billions of ears dig this stuff and it changed pop history … Sometimes, it still sucks. As proof, we here at Crossfade dug up some examples of how stupid it’s…
What does Kanye West have in common with every other man on the planet who is not having sex with a Kardashian? Exactly … He thinks they’re all boooring. West was photographed straight snoozing at a London nightclub this past weekend as girlfriend Kim Kardashian gossiped about God-knows-what with some…
Madonna is a dirty, old lady. And though she wasn’t always old, the Queen of Pop has been a hot and proud taboo-smashing slut from birth. Even before becoming famous, Ms. Madonna Louise Ciccone was making thought-provoking egg porn. She’s also burned through an insanely long line of famous and…

A$AP Rocky and the Mob LongLiveA$AP Tour With Schoolboy Q, Danny Brown, and Ab-Soul Fillmore Miami Beach Thursday, November 8, 2012 Better Than: A Ziploc bag packed with “Purple Swag.” Shit was thick, homie. Weed smoke wafting around the lobby of the Fillmore Miami Beach like some kinda slightly skunky…

And today, the UR1 peeps debuted the fest’s official trailer, revealing the FSOBV1 Bass Arena roster, which includes Flosstradamus, Crizzly, Tittsworth, six other low-end party pros, and…
Look … It’s not like we’re broke because we have a “serious drinking habit.” Or because we’re “lazy and just didn’t manage to make it into work on time.” OK, that’s a lie. But still, even with only $10 in our pockets, we here at Crossfade wanna party. Thank god…
What really matters in life? Is it family? Is it power? Is it success in your career? No, it’s tit buoyancy. At least, that’s what Rihanna will be most concerned when she reaches her nifty 50s. The Barbadian sex goddess recently sat down for a revealing yet playful on-screen interview…
