Tom Brady is apparently fine with jokes about his divorce from Giselle Bündchen, the “deflategate” controversy, and the millions he reportedly lost in crypto, but he draws the line at bits about Patriots owner Robert Kraft's massage parlor scandal. It was, unsurprisingly, roastmaster general Jeff Ross who delivered the one joke that really seemed to irk Brady during the three-hour (seriously) GROAT The Greatest Roast Of All Time: Tom Brady. The joke, in full: “So Tom became a Patriot and moved up to New England, and on the first day of training camp, that scrawny rookie famously walked into the…

Even Isbell said so, thanking Shires onstage and adding, “I’ve seen a lot of Amanda Shires sets, but…

When Pusha T eviscerated Drake on 2018’s “The Story of Adidon,” he set the bar for all future Drake teardowns. The blackface cover art. Pusha’s methodical and theatrical delivery, building flawlessly to the Adonis reveal and the mocking “tick, tick, tick.” A concise three minutes that permanently cracked the image Drake had been meticulously crafting all his adult life, and which he has been desperately trying to Gorilla Glue back together for the last five years. Kendrick Lamar’s “euphoria” is not that—it’s six minutes of rambling over two of the worst beat switch-ups you will ever hear. But it is…

Ci vorrebbe un Borges ben motivato per mappare il bestiario immaginario delle copertine rock. Non me ne vogliano la carpa quacchera di Captain Beefheart o i crostacei in tweed dei Residents, ma la mia creatura preferita rimane la “mucca sbagliata”. Certo, anche quel lettering da tazebao suprematista ci mette del suo, ma la parte del leone (o meglio, del bue) la gioca quel muso lì. Anche solo per l’espressione enigmatica che ostenta: mansueta ma anche sfrontata, al pari di quel completo tra l’attoriale e il pretesco.Altra specie in attesa di tassonomia dedicata: dischi di cui (più o meno) tutti hanno…
