FREEwilliamsburg’s Top 25 Albums of 2019

December 18, 2019 By Peter Rittweger

FREEwilliamsburg’s Top 25 Albums of 2019

There is something bittersweet about writing a Top 25 albums post at the end of a decade marked by so much change in music, the way its distributed, and the way it’s reviewed. The last thing I wanted to do, was rehash how algorithms have created our own individual musical vacuums for the thousandth time, […]

Kanye's Failed HBO Pilot

July 15, 2013 By Free Williamsburg

[Executive Producer Larry] Charles did say that the show is roughly Kanye’s version of Larry David’s show, “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” an idea that Kanye thought up himself. “What Kanye West said to me the first time, he said, ‘I’m the black Larry David.’ That’s the first thing he said to me.

Yeezus, Pleazus, Your “Black Skinhead” Video Is Cheezus

July 9, 2013 By Free Williamsburg

We’ve been enjoying the new Kanye record, despite its terribly misogynistic and annoyingly lyrics. That said, this video is really unfortunate, especially since “Black Skinhead” is the stand-out track on Kanye’s latest ode narcissism, Yeezus. [via]

The Most Blogged About Shows This Week

October 24, 2012 By My Social List

It’s refreshing (and relaxing) to talk about something other than CMJ for a change.  Not that I didn’t thoroughly enjoy myself during the all-out clusterfuck of a festival that is the “Music Marathon,” but the weight of tracking hundreds of shows, attending them, and consuming all the free booze that’s flowing over a few days […]

H.A.M.

January 11, 2011 By Matt Flint

As a food, ham isn’t that tough. You know, Christmas dinners and all that. But when I found out that this Kanye + Jay-Z collaboration from their forthcoming Watch the Throne wasn’t about pork, I decided to give it a listen. And I guess “Hard As a Motherfucker” is a cool sentiment and theme for […]
