We seem to have gone from "everything should be canceled" to "everything is canceled" in the blink of an eye, or, to put it in 2020 terms, the wash of a hand. You can't cancel music though. That's it. That's the rantnrave. Listen to music. Make music. Be music. Be safe. Have hope. It's FRIDAY and that means new music from SHABAKA & THE ANCESTORS, FOUR TET, JAY ELECTRONICA, CODE ORANGE, BIG FREEDIA, EARLY JAMES, NIALL HORAN, CHIKA, SUIGENERIS, DAX, JELLY ROLL, PORCHES, PORRIDGE RADIO, WILLOW SMITH & TYLER COLE, TAINY... We'll interrupt to note that exactly seven days after releasing ETERNAL ATAKE, LIL UZI VERT was promising to release either a deluxe version with lots of new tracks or a sequel to his mixtape LIL UZI VERT VS. THE WORLD, no one was exactly sure which as of late Thursday night... And CIRCLES AROUND THE SUN (RIP NEAL CASAL), JFDR, the BOOMTOWN RATS, NAZAR, HUMAN IMPACT, the DISTRICTS, DEAP LIPS, ELECTRIC INDIGO, VENUS VOLCANISM, YUMI ZOUMA, JAH9, HILARY WOODS, SAM DOORES, CAITLYN SMITH, ROOKIE, the BOMBPOPS, STITCHED UP HEART, INVENT ANIMATE, BLUEFACE, KRIZZ KALIKO, DON TOLIVER, DJ ESCO & DOE BOY, RICH THE KID, JACK HARLOW, CIRCA WAVES, GROUPLOVE, PETER BJORN AND JOHN, DEITRICK HADDON, AL DI MEOLA, the SHIRES, MARIA MCKEE, KING SOLOMON HICKS and SASS JORDAN... And a new HAMILTON song from LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA... RIP DON BURROWS and JIM WILLIAMSON... The MusicREDEF staff is self-quarantining for a long weekend. We'll be back in your inbox Tuesday.
