In the age of Social Media, clickbait and TMZ-style “news” has devoured the Journalism industry. Music Journalism is dead. Or is it?

One thing is for sure. Music deserves better analysis. Quality journalists and creatives deserve more praise and bigger platforms. Fans deserve to be intrigued and inspired by the content they read. And we all deserve more substance and passion in our lives.

Join the CentralSauce Creative Collective as we discuss three pieces of great journalistic content and celebrate the writers who are saving Music Journalism, one article at a time...

F*ck clickbait. Welcome to "In Search Of Sauce."
