    Trve. Crvp. Pop!: Will Smith - Based on a True Story

    Hello, been a minute, but welcome back to another episode of the search for the worst album ever made, it's Trve. Crvp. Pop!. On this episode Steve and Sam throw the rulebook out the window and pick their own album to judge, it's the 5th studio album from rapper, actor, author, pop culture phenom Will Smith, Based on a True Story, which was released on the 28th of March 2025. Dunno if you remember, but Will Smith has had a funny old time over the last few years, he won an Oscar for best actor, but it went a bit pear shaped if you recall. After that, Will had to scramble around a lot to salvage his reputation, which he hasn't really been able to do. He did release this record though, which was his most serious and personal effort to date. It's basically him going on about how great he is and how he doesn't care what people think of him, whilst also moaning that he nearly got cancelled. Good job Will!

    Ep.169: The Mount Rushmore of Grunge, Sophisti-pop & the 90's Reggae Revival

    Welcome back to your weekly dose of Trve. Cvlt. Pop!, a music podcast. On this weeks show Steve and Gaz once again discuss which 4 artists get onto the Mount Rushmore of their own particular genre. On this episode we look at Grunge, Sophisti-pop and (what we have decided to christen) the mid-90's Reggae Revival. It's maybe the first time Melvins and Shaggy have shared the same space. What a win. There's also some chat on new albums from Converge, Silversun Pickups, Angel Du$t and more, chat about Maximo Park's recent show playing their debut album A Certain Trigger in full and a lost banger from Pet Shop Boys.

    Ep.167: Doing that 2016 Thing

    Hello friends! It's another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop!, the ol music podcast that you enjoy so much. On this week's show, Steve and Gaz are just jumping on the trend of looking back at 2016, like loads of people are. Luckily, it WAS a very good year for music. We go through a bunch of stuff that happened over that 12 month period and also pick out 5 favourite albums from the year. We also look at the record breaking feats of both Robbie Williams and Harry Styles and recall a long lost pop banger from M Beat and the big hat one off of Jamiroquai.

    Ep.166: A Plethora of Deep Cuts, BAD BRITS, When Harry Met Shania & the Bullying of Ja Rule

    Hello and welcome back to another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop!, it's basically pop music. On this week's show Steve and Gaz decide to dive deep into the back catalogues of some of their collective favourite artists and pull out a couple of songs that deserve far more love; from The Smashing Pumpkins to AC/DC, via Prince, Daft Punk, Jimmy Eat World and Helmet, we give you some lost, forgotten and unloved gems. Plus there is a lost pop banger from Ja Rule, who got in on the love for Toto very early and was then bullied out of the music scene for it, chat about the mad support artists that Harry Style is bringing out with him this summer and we try and make sense of the BRIT Award's nominees... and fail.
