Jacob Collier is an interesting example because the general response I've seen to his music from music fans is that it is too "smart". It's impressive and novel to music academics …

Honestly this article makes me happy to be young. So many useless practices and attitudes, once brought down on us and simply accepted, now in the trash heap of history. Hopefully …

From your first link, it says that that band changed their name because of a NS band with the same name. NS meaning National Socialist...

Yes the value of the site was much more clear when it was primarily a way to demystify references and slang in rap lyrics - in the same vein as Urban Dictionary. But since then rap…
