But the Carrollton, Missouri, country singer wasn't playing talking points like “We will make America great again!” over the PA in agreement. Rather, he was there to light them up. Andrews has made a name for himself online as an outspoken critic of Trump and the Republican Party in a series of often expletive-laced videos. Onstage at CMA Fest, he lets his music do the talking, performing songs like “Are We Great Yet?” and the new “Not See”…

Twenty-six years after the release of the original song by Alex Brittithe duo brings one of the most recognizable refrains of the early 2000s back into a new summer.

They later went onto form the rap crew Shoreline Mafia, who in the late 2010s had a couple summers on lock with a few songs that I consider to be essential in the West Coast party rap canon. To this day—after a breakup and a reunion that trimmed the four-man group down to a duo—they remain massively popular regional rap stars with diehards who swear by them, a luxury that gives the dudes the freedom to just do…

There are two phrases most dads seem genetically programmed to repeat: “Ready to rock and roll” and “I don't need anything for Father's Day.” If you've never heard your dad say either of those, try listening a little more closely. While he'll probably never retire “ready to rock and roll” before leaving the house, a restaurant, or pretty much any location he's at, we may have found a way to put an end to the annual “I don't…
