Keeping track of all the new music that drops every week is a nightmare. I’m here to do it so you don’t have to! Welcome to Nu Musique Friday. Pull up some headphones and stay awhile.

I co-founded a new independent music publication called Hearing Things, which launched exactly a month ago today. My latest pieces over there are a profile of the New York rapper blackchai and a reflection on MF DOOM's MM..FOOD Tour DVD for the album's 20th anniversary. If you like what me and my co-founders are up to, consider subscribing to the site (and paying for it, if you can). We don't bite, promise.

My first book, Reel Notes: Culture Writing on the Margins of Music and Movies, is out right now! Purchase your digital copy on Amazon and read it on the Kindle app (You don't need a Kindle to read it. Buy the book and download the app).

Check out the Reel Notes podcast, dedicated to exploring the relationship between rap and film. The 39th episode, featuring New York rapper Jay Cinema, is available now. New episodes drop every Wednesday wherever podcasts are sold, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more via Buzzsprout. Reel Notes is also available via my personal YouTube channel, and Podcasts on Vevo.

If you really wanna be tapped in, join the Reel Notes Patreon! For as little as $5/month, you'll gain access to our Discord server, exclusive interviews and reviews, early access to new episodes, & more.

Reel Notes stands in solidarity with the oppressed peoples of Palestine, the Congo, Sudan, Tigray, and Haiti. Please consider donating to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, The Palestinian Youth Movement, HealAfrica, FreeTigray, and/or Hope For Haiti.

Please consider donating to The Okra Project, an organization dedicated to helping feed Black trans youth.
