She is the first European artist to do so.

As reported by Republican audio file of a few seconds appears in the archive in which the singer pronounces her name: “I'm Giusy FerreriA short fragment, but sufficient to legally establish one of the most recognizable…
The music industry has been left “disappointed” by the UK government’s draft bill on a ticket tout ban in the King’s Speech today (Wednesday May 13). Just last week, Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed to “stamp out ticket touts for good” in a letter to live music fans, promising to act “as soon as possible”, as exclusively revealed by NME. However, in the King’s Speech delivered in the Houses of Parliament earlier today, the plans to tackle the issue were introduced as a draft bill, dubbed the Draft Ticket Tout Ban Bill. Its status as only a draft bill deprioritises this vital piece of…
In the modern parlance of pop, it’s no unusual thing to introduce a new album with the rhetoric of a new era. But it says a lot about Lykke Li – an artist who’s always seemed more comfortable on the fringes of the mainstream than at its centre; whose sweeping heartache anthems have seen her collaborate with Mark Ronson but also David Lynch – that even this common trope comes with a poetic, unlikely edge. The Swedish singer’s sixth (and, reportedly, final) LP ‘The Afterparty’, she explains to NME from her hotel in Paris, where she’s out on promo duties,…
MUNA have always been excellent at nailing light and dark; while the Los Angeles trio’s biggest song is the deliciously featherweight infatuation of ‘Silk Chiffon’, their finest work centres on broken hearts, uncomfortable tensions or dark, destructive shadows lingering just out of frame. One of MUNA’s best, 2017’s ‘I Know A Place’, was written following the previous year’s Pulse nightclub shooting, and feels fragile and under threat even as it celebrates the safety and euphoria of queer spaces. And lord help anybody masochistic enough to listen to ‘Stayaway’ while weathering a break-up: “No one ever told me leaving was the…
If K-pop were a sonic cathedral, El Capitxn (born Jang Yi-jeong) would be one of the artists who designed some of its stained glass windows. For years, his name has appeared in the credits of global hits by BTS, IU and TXT, to name three. We know choreographies, songs and aesthetics about K-pop, rarely who is behind the mixers. We take the opportunity to understand something more with him, who passed through Milan for his tour.Because yes, Jang Yi-jeong worked for Hybe Records, the production company of your favorite bands, but he is not just a producer. In its history…
At the beginning of With the rain inside by Matteo Berruto there appears a writing that is a lifelong statement: “September 1984, international anarchist meeting organized by the Centro Studi Libertari – Giuseppe Pinelli Archive between Venice, Geneva and Montreal. Among four thousand people there is also a boy from Predappio: Giorgio Canali”. The docufilm dedicated to the “best Italian rocker” (copyright Giovanni Lindo Ferretti), which lasts an hour and 25 minutes and will be presented on May 10 at the Bellaria Film Festival (watch out for spoilers), opens with another assembly, in 2024, where there is still talk of…
After years of maddening media exposure, Blanco has taken a step back. It is a trajectory common to many new idols of the very young: to remain in the Sanremo area, just remember Madame, Sangiovanni and Angelina Mango. After the triumph at the Ariston with “Brividi” in 2022, together with Mahmood, and the publication and promotion of “Innamorato” (2023), he remained active as an author for others and with few collaborations and singles. “Ma'” is a third work that is listened to with the expectation that accompanies works perceived as decisive: after a very rapid rise, this should be a…
