A gentle reminder not to compare your life to someone else’s social media highlights 💜🌸 very few people share their failures and bad days over here, so just remember that before you start comparing yourself. You are worthy and you are enough just as you are 💖✨

I think the original credit for this quote goes to poet June Jordan, but let me know if that’s not accurate!

Sounds x Premiere: Goldilocks // Bañador

Produced by Goldilocks mixed by Kevin Cutler, and mastered by Nicolas de Porcel (who also mastered Roddy Ricch’s hit song The Box), the track “is for the baddies who are not afraid to strut their stuff – the girls who take up space and know how to heat up the room.”

Check it on the site now x

Our fave reggaeton artist Goldilocks has just released a banger of a single off of her debut album. Featuring a sick beat that Goldilocks has become known for, and smooth—yet, sexy—lyrics, “B…

Video premiere: Vaeda Black x Saverio // Cigs

This song and video couldn’t be more representative of today’s quarantine mood (see: every day for the past few months). Featuring the best summertime vibes that I’ve heard this year, wrapped in a whole lot of apathy, Vaeda Black & #Saverio have released the official music video for “Cigs.”

The track/video makes you feel both that things will get better and also that you’re not alone in things being totally f*cked up. Cheers x

We are thrilled to premiere this tune by Brooklyn-based Monograms

"Channeling a dark synthwave soundscape and lyrics that could be taken out of a Rimbaud book, Monograms produces the perfect music for what has quickly grown to be a year of quarantine. We may all be stuck in this personal—and shared—hell, but Monograms makes it palatable.

The new tune “Lines” features vocals by Kat E. and quintessentially poetic lyrics, “I got devils in my head, I got angels in my bed, I got 13 other subjects on my mind.”

Video premiere: Vaeda Black x Saverio // Cigs

Written, produced, and recorded in one late night with her friend Saverio, Vaeda Black proves she's a GD legend with her track "Cigs" -- full of apathy, summertime vibes, and an infectious beat.

Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, AMERICA’S FUNHOUSE shines a light on the black experience in America and criticizes the government and people in power for perpetuating a broken system. The track falls in the ‘protest dance music’ category—it’s making a clear statement against the state of life in America, but you somehow can’t get the beat out of your head.

Hey guys. This is a difficult post to make. I’m sure by now you’ve heard about Elijah McClain. Maybe you’ve even read his last words. Knowing that Elijah’s final moments were full of fear absolutely breaks my heart. Another beautiful life senselessly taken by police. There’s nothing we can do to bring this sweet boy back, but we can bring him justice. Officials in Aurora have claimed they plan to re-examine the case after national outcry, but that is not enough. Officers involved are still on the streets today, continuing to pose a threat to other Black lives. Please sign the petition to have your voice heard (link in bio). I’ve also attached some resources of ways that you can help (swipe to see ➡️). For more information, please go to @justiceforelijahmcclain where you’ll find more email addresses and phone numbers to contact local representatives, as well as the link to his family’s gofundme. 💙 #justiceforelijahmcclain #justiceforelijah @ United state of America
