“This song is about the past,” said Phoebe Bridgers before diving into one of the eight unreleased tracks she played for a rapt sold-out crowd at her pop-up Madison Square Garden show on Thursday night. “But that’s every song.” Since her spectral breakout single “Smoke Signals” in 2017, the Los Angeles songwriter, Boygenius member, and soon-to-be actress has become a preeminent chronicler of the ghosts we accumulate over time: past selves, old haunts, lost loves.

Bryan Andrews made his CMA Fest debut on Thursday afternoon by taking the stage to a recording of President Trump's greatest hits. 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.

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. The song starts from an immediately identifiable imagery and overturns it in a current key: the echo of Britti's classic becomes the starting point for a light song with a summer scent, built on fleeting encounters, irony and a disenchanted attitude, far from the clichés of the Latin lover.

In high school, Fenix Flexin and OhGeesy became cool through a life of tagging, skating, and hitting up L.A. area EDM clubs. 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…
