Steve Lacy’s Oh Yeah? Has to Answer a Question Bigger Than “Bad Habit”
Steve Lacy enters his next album cycle with a problem many musicians would gladly accept: one song became so large that it threatens to become the default explanation for everything that comes afterward. His new album, Oh Yeah?, is scheduled for release Friday through RCA. Current reporting identifies SZA, Erykah Badu and Cecile Believe among its collaborators, while “Is It Cool?” has already introduced the project through a conversational duet between Lacy and SZA.

After Hours: Soulful, Steady and Built for the Ride Home
The strongest late-night playlists do not depend on one tempo. They create continuity through emotional temperature. Tonight’s sequence begins with openness, moves through attraction and uncertainty, and ends with the kind of restraint that makes listeners lean closer. It is designed for the drive home, the final hour at work or the moment when the day becomes quiet enough to process. Playlist Jill Scott — “A Long Walk” Warm, conversational soul that still sounds like the beg

Watch Ride or Die for Friendship, Assassins and Octavia Spencer in Action Mode

Their relationship changes dramatically when Debbie discovers that Judith is secretly an international assassin. A figure from Judith’s past and a failed hit force both women onto the run. The premise works because the action is built around a relationship rather than replacing it.

Bright Moments Keeps Baltimore Jazz Open, Local and Collaborative
While national television focused on the All-Star Game, Baltimore’s own music story unfolded in a smaller room. Keystone Korner hosted its free Bright Moments Jam Session Tuesday evening, led by Obasi Akoto and members of the greater Baltimore and Washington jazz community.

That recurring structure matters more than a single headline performance.

Star Bandz Is Learning How to Turn Youthful Urgency Into a Lasting Rap Identity
Youth can create attention in hip-hop, but it cannot sustain a career by itself. Star Bandz is beginning the more difficult stage: turning early momentum into an identity strong enough to grow with her. The Chicago rapper was recently included in a 2026 hip-hop roundtable examining the direction of the genre alongside several developing artists. The conversation positioned her within a generation thinking seriously about authenticity, audience attention and what separates tem
Baby Rose Turns Longing Into Cinematic Soul on YEARNALISM
Baby Rose has never sounded like an artist interested in making emotion smaller for the sake of convenience. With YEARNALISM, the singer builds an entire creative statement around the feelings people are frequently encouraged to hide: desire, uncertainty, heartbreak, attachment and the uncomfortable space between moving on and still wanting something back. Released Friday through Secretly Canadian, the 12-song album explores several forms of love rather than restricting its s
Is Consistency the New Superpower?
Not every artist needs a surprise album or a headline-grabbing moment to stay relevant. Some of today's most successful musicians are winning by consistently releasing quality music, touring, and maintaining genuine connections with fans. Artists like Drake, J. Cole, SZA, Summer Walker, Megan Thee Stallion, and Brent Faiyaz have each built momentum through regular releases and authentic engagement rather than relying solely on viral moments. In today's music landscape, consis
