XXXTentacion: Skins review – a toxic legacy
via theguardian.comShot dead in June, the rapper has since stormed charts worldwide. This posthumous album reveals a maverick talent – and a grim contribution from Kanye WestEver since the day in May 1958 when Jerry Lee Lewis fetched up for a British tour in the company of a 13-year-old girl who turned out to be his wife, rock and pop music has offered fans ample opportunity to consider the wisdom or otherwise of separating the art from the artist. Music’s history comes liberally sprinkled with paedoph -
'He showed you didn’t have to be angry to be punk': musicians on Pete Shelley
via theguardian.comGlen Matlock, Peter Hook, Jon Savage and other punk luminaries pay tribute to the former Buzzcocks frontman
I knew them right from the get go. They came all the way from Manchester, Pete and Howard, and turned up at Malcolm [McLaren]’s to track us down so that they could book us for a show up there, so they had someone to support. They really stuck their heads out when nobody had heard of us. They didn’t support us the first time we played Manchester because they hadn’t got a b -
Def Leppard review – metal legends revisit a riff-laden classic
via theguardian.comO2 Arena, LondonThe British hard-rock favourites play their 1987 album Hysteria in full in a show that demonstrates their scintillating craftTwo days before his 61st birthday, Phil Collen stands stripped to the waist, his torso oiled, striking the first notes of Def Leppard’s 1987 album Hysteria on his guitar. In fairness, after several decades in which the gym has taken the place of drink and drugs, he has the kind of body most men his age would consider achievable only by means of radica -
Grammy nominations 2019: Cardi B, Kendrick Lamar and Drake lead the pack
via theguardian.comStrong showing for female and hip-hop artists suggest renewed focus on diversity – but it’s a mediocre year for British actsAfter controversy about the Grammys’ failure to recognise women’s achievements at the 2018 ceremony, female artists dominate key categories in the nominations for the 2019 awards. Country stars Maren Morris and Kacey Musgraves, rapper Cardi B, pop futurist Janelle Monáe and Lady Gaga could all take home major awards at the 61st Grammy award ce -

Pete Shelley: the smart, sardonic punk bard of unrequited romance
via theguardian.comPacked with hooks and waspishly funny lines, the Buzzcocks frontman effortlessly created singles which became part of the musical landscapeIf Peter McNeish had done nothing more than organise the Sex Pistols’ June 1976 gig at Manchester’s Lesser Free Trade Hall with his college friend Howard Trafford, then he could still reasonably have claimed to have made a vast impact on the face of rock music. Hastily arranged by two students who had no idea what they were doing, and sparsely att -
'Man is a king': controversial star Buju Banton comes home to Jamaica
via theguardian.comHaving served seven years in a US prison on drugs charges, Banton is returning to a hero’s welcome – though to many he’s still notorious for a song inciting the murder of gay peopleThe most eagerly awaited arrival in Jamaica since Ethiopia’s Emperor Haile Selassie touched down in April 1966 might just be this weekend’s return of Mark Myrie, better known as Buju Banton.Myrie, perhaps the most famous Jamaican artist whose name isn’t Marley, has served seven year -
Are Victoria Beckham and Jason Orange the best members of their bands?
via theguardian.comFrom the Spice Girls and Take That’s more subdued individuals to Girls Aloud’s Kimberley Walsh, it’s the so-called quiet ones who are often the most astute
“My biggest insecurity has always been, what do I contribute to the band?” mused Jason Orange in 2005, ahead of Take That’s lucrative reunion. His lack of clarity vis-a-vis his day job was subsequently reflected by Twitter wags, who marked his eventual departure in 2014 with variations on “Who?” -

via theguardian.comWembley Arena, London
One of the progressive new generation of dancehall stars lives up to his reputation, with upgraded production values and a confident, sinuous presenceBraggadocio goes with the territory in dancehall, but when Popcaan says, “Mi name global like Guinness”, it’s more than just hot air. The singer born Andrae Sutherland has collaborated with Drake and Gorillaz, been sampled by Kanye and is a leading voice in the reshaping of dancehall’s image, supplantin -

Kate Bush and me: David Mitchell on being a lifelong fan of the pop poet
via theguardian.comAs a book of the singer-songwriter’s lyrics is released, the Cloud Atlas author reflects on the songs that have been the soundtrack to his life and workI’ve been a fan of Kate Bush for nearly 40 years. Being a fan, like being in love, is giddying, it’s as personal as skin, it connects you with others in a particular way, and it sets you up for a fall. Being a fan puts you on one-way first name terms with the object of your fan-ness, even if he, she, they or “Kate” d -
Madness review – baggy bangers with a British pop institution

LP: Heart to Mouth review – big-hearted pop with an edge
via theguardian.comVagrant‘I think androgyny is an art form,” declared Laura “LP” Pergolizzi last year, and the New York singer-songwriter certainly carries it off. Her mix of tousled curls, mens’ jackets and sunglasses after dark make the 37-year-old look part-Patti Smith, part-Marc Bolan. “I’ve always felt kinda gender neutral,“ she says.Her fifth album similarly respects no boundaries, careering between sultry and exuberant, from big pop to chugging rock.

Meek Mill: Championships review – cinematic tracks from emancipated rapper
via theguardian.comAtlantic/Maybach Music GroupIn recent years, Meek Mill has become better known for his brushes with the law than his music. On continued probation since a 2007 arrest for possession of a firearm, he was last year sentenced to two to four years in prison for violating his parole by performing a dirt-bike wheelie in New York. The apparent incongruity between this act and Mill’s arrest spawned the widespread hashtag campaign #FreeMeekMill, a New York Times op-ed penned by Jay-Z advocating pri -
Van Morrison: The Prophet Speaks review – laid-back, old-school R&B
via theguardian.comCaroline InternationalVan Morrison’s 40th studio album comes packaged in the year’s most unsettling cover: the great man with Archie Andrews – the ventriloquist’s dummy from Educating Archie – sitting on his knee. What can it all mean? Morrison had a 2012 track called Educating Archie that complained about global elites, capitalism and the media, but this is an album of old-fashioned R&B – eight covers and six originals – that don’t appear conc -
'I talk to my clothes': why Courtney Love is selling her best-known outfits
via theguardian.comThe 90s grunge icon talks about how Gianni Versace got her out of slips, Karl Lagerfeld got her out of tutus and why naming her clothes helps her get dressedCourtney Love is one of those rare figures whose sense of style helped to define an era. Her love of ruffles, lace and vintage slip dresses injected the baggy grunge aesthetic of the 1990s with a burst of an antique heresy. Her alternative style even inspired Marc Jacobs’ spring 1993 collection for Perry Ellis (the brand decided he had -
Earl Sweatshirt: Some Rap Songs review – powerful, emotional poetry
via theguardian.com(Columbia)Amid a rap culture of sprawling albums with cosmopolitan beats that hop between country and style, Earl Sweatshirt’s third album initially seems as modest as its title. Mostly self-produced and with few guests – two of whom are his own parents – its 15 tracks only break the two-minute mark twice. But it ends up being one of the best rap albums of the year, a smoky iceberg of great emotional depth.Beats-wise, it’s a little like one of Madlib’s Medicine Show -

Bruce Springsteen: Springsteen on Broadway review – magical myth-busting with the Boss
via theguardian.comSpringsteen uses an unlikely venue to puncture his own stage persona, in an enthralling recording of wit and wisdom The announcement of his residency at New York’s Walter Kerr theatre caused an immediate stampede for tickets, but the notion of Bruce Springsteen on Broadway seemed a strange one. He rose to fame as a purveyor of honest, bar-band rock, devoid of the ponderous flim-flam, elevated self-importance and glittery excess to which other 70s musicians were partial; a trustworthy telle
