#186: DONDA, Dr Luke, Pandemic Dating Bang On
-
- Society & Culture
Kanye’s long awaited new album is finally out, and launched with his most provocative live streaming event so far.
What does DONDA say about him as an artist, and the art he’s communicating to the world?
Meanwhile, a longread on pop producer Dr Luke is a thorough case study on how the music industry is broken, and what we need to do to fix it. But also a discussion on how we as fans make ethical choices about the music we enjoy.
And while we’re sinking our teeth into some heavy stuff, never fear, we’ve got good news stories on pandemic dating and a great watch on beautiful ballet, too.
