The Greatest Live Show Experience I Ever Had.
The greatest live show experience I’ve ever had was on July 1st 2012 at the State Theater in Portland Maine. It was in Portland, Maine that I saw B.B. King play guitar like it was an activity he invented. Same town I saw the Flaming Lips drop balloons, bubbles and what I thought was the…

The 2019 album I Missed Out On
The 2019 Album I Missed Out On by Dan-O By the time I named Griselda the 2019 MVP I was dead focused on the four members on the T-Shirt: Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, Daringer and Conway The Machine. What I missed: Griselda exists within an ecosystem of ILL New York rappers who grow and…

FREEMUSICEMPIRE: State of the game vol. 1
by Dan-O That’s right! For the first time I linked up with one of my most trusted associates (K DIGGY) and jumped into a dope music discussion. I have these all the time and they are always this silly/serious/detailed I am overjoyed to get to share one of them with all of you. Watch…

PartyNextDoor and Drake: The Questionable Collaboration
PartyNextDoor and Drake: The Questionable Collaboration by Dan-O I wish I could be a super fan like the people who wave the flag for Drake or Beyonce or Nicki. I admire it because faith in an artist is trust and they have absolute faith. I have trust issues. So we’ve heard the reference tracks where…

Quarantine Lifestyle: Book Edition
Quarantine Lifestyle: Book Edition by Dan-O Dirty secret time. Book people are like gardeners. They are serious about their grind. I respect it but I don’t function like they do. I can’t just slam through 400 page book after 500 page book. I have created my own system of staying in tune with different sources…

Song of The Year-Hit My Phone by Megan Thee Stallion featuring Kehlani
Song of The Year-Hit My Phone by Megan Thee Stallion featuring Kehlani by Dan-O You just can’t beat the kind of collaboration that unites two fabulously interesting artists coming off their best work. In 2019, Kehlani dropped the elegant and well crafted While We Wait while Megan Thee Stallion was everywhere. She dropped her Fever project, dropped some killer…

Albums of The Year so far p.1
Albums of The Year so far p.1 by Dan-O Since this site started in 2011 we have never posted a list. At best, posting the list distracts from a focus on good art. It moves the readers eye towards the numerical ranking aspect. At worst, It becomes an arbitrary insult that leaves every project not…

The Greatest Sports Reference of Curren$y’s Career and The Roadmap to Roster Appreciation
The Greatest Sports Reference of Curren$y’s Career and The Roadmap to Roster Appreciation by Dan-O It is not that I’d like to hang out with Curren$y….I kind of already do. The combination of how much music he puts out with the strength and clarity of his voice means he’s always in my ear with something…

Song of The Year-Pose (remix) by Yo Gotti featuring Lil Uzi Vert and Megan Thee Stallion
Song of The Year-Pose (remix) by Yo Gotti featuring Lil Uzi Vert and Megan Thee Stallion by Dan-O Untrapped is full throttle fun. Yo Gotti is a heck of a beat picker and Ben Billions really held him down on this album. He works directly on five of the fifteen tracks and they are all…
