Music Interviews
As a founding member of blink-182, +44, and Simple Creatures, Mark Hoppus is a veteran of three decades of alternative music—from the punk clubs of Southern California to unlikely pop stardom in the TRL era to navigating the new millennium’s post-genre revolution. He also recently became a No. 1 New York Times best-selling author with his memoir, FAHRENHEIT-182. With his namesake Apple Music 1 radio show, Mark features the songs, artists, and culture that’ve defined the movement, with the sense of humor and perspective that have become his trademark.

Music History
Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig is one of indie’s most thoughtful artists, and on TIME CRISIS, he digs into the things that matter most in these divisive times—like classic rock and corporate food history. Thanks to the Crisis Crew (Jake Longstreth, @Seinfeld2000, and Nick Weidenfeld), every episode is its own journey—some are serious and some aren’t—but each one gets its very own soundtrack that spans from Dylan to Drake. You never know who might stop by, but what you can be sure of: No topic is too high- or lowbrow for Ezra’s hot take.

Dolly Parton isn’t just a singer, she’s a symbol—for strength, for creative independence, for success in a world traditionally dominated by men. In a career that has spanned more than half a century, she’s played many roles besides being a pioneering singer-songwriter: fashionista, businesswoman, philanthropist. As she prepares for her latest evolution with the release of her first rock album, “Rockstar”, Dolly and co-host Kelleigh Bannen talk through the phases of her life and career in What Would Dolly Do? Radio. Tune in weekly leading up to the release of “Rockstar” as Dolly shares her stories, wit, and wisdom.

Nice Dig into creating music

It is great effort but will be nice to bring in more artist who are creating meaningful and catchy Punjabi music at the same time. Karan is very talented when it comes to putting words together. What about song ‘You’ from MM album? One of the best and underrated song. It will be nice more about the process of creating music, especially when singer and a different lyricists work together. How music fits in the there.
Enjoyed very much

So I am not Punjabi or Indian but very much enjoyed this podcast and the music. I especially enjoyed the modern music with its mix of familiar and unfamiliar sounds and styles. Thank you for an accessible intro to a new musical style.
