songs in the key of mp3 out now 🇵🇸
For the last month I’ve been listening to little else but the new Danny Brown and Armand Hammer albums. With the albums finally dropping tomorrow, I went long with some thoughts over on my Substack open.substack.com/pub/thesixth...

agreed, MIKE hasn’t dropped the ball once since 2016 and this is a joy to see. In the back of my book I list ten essential listens from each year and ‘Burning Desire’ is there but I’d go further, that’s easily one of the best albums of the decade so far

Wild month. Turned 29, released my first book, launched it in one of the coolest spots in London, appeared in a bunch of magazines, dropped a zine, went on the BBC twice, saw pals, sat on social media for many hours… time to check out for a bit now

If you pick up my book from any number of indie record and book shops in the UK then you can grab a bonus (free!) copy of SOFT METAL HARD JAZZ - with mini essays about three classic songs by Conway the Machine, Sons of Kemet and Reverend Kristen Michael Hayer

The opening side of this is pure magic, Miles had just kicked his habit for the first time, came back from Detroit and headed into the studio for Prestige with Horace Silver and a flash of Mingus… early signs of greatness right in the midst of the cool

In 2024, thirteen years after it was first released, ‘Champagne Coast’ became one of the most popular songs in America. For CLASH, read an extract from my new book about the very moment Devonté Hynes became Blood Orange and changed the shape of ‘indie’ music for a decade to come

Very cool to have members of Atlanta band Algiers say this about my @whiterabbitbks.bsky.social debut out next week - to have it mentioned alongside absolute classics like Val Milmers’ catalogue of American jazz feels ridiculous and flattering to say the least, thank you Algiers 🖤

A quote from Jacqueline Crooks about the book - Jacqueline wrote ‘Fire Rush’, the Women’s Prize Shortlisted novel about love and history during lovers rock. It means a lot to have somebody who writes about music so eloquently say this about the book… I hope at least a little of it is true…

Was so lovely to have Richard Dawson - one of the great British songwriters of the 21st century and a brilliant, eccentric, sensitive mind - say this about my book... He's a massive SOPHIE fan too it turns out

Some poptimism for the “music today” crowd… I genuinely cannot remember a time in my lifetime when the charts were topped by albums as good as these (not you Morgan), jealous of how good teenagers have it when it comes to headline pop stars these days
