After a two-festival hiatus, The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, also known as, ‘Coachella’, will take place this year on Friday April 14th until Sunday April 23rd. The event takes place over two weekends, with ticket packages being split between weekend one and weekend two. The festival features a stacked lineup of artists across all genres of music, as well as some of the best food vendors from the Los Angeles area.
The headliners for the event are Bad Bunny, BLACKPINK, and Frank Ocean. Along with the headliners, there will also be performances by a myriad of other artists including Gorillaz, Pusha T, Metro Boomin, $uicideboy$, boygenius, Yung Lean, Björk, Kali Uchis, A Boogie, Calvin Harris and many more. The event will also include large-scale art installations by artists such as NEWSUBSTANCE and Maggie West.
As per usual, tickets for the event are hard to come by, as weekend one is already sold out on the official ‘Coachella’ website. However, tickets for weekend two are still available on the ‘Coachella’ Website, as packages range from $549 to $1,069 plus fees. Car camping and tent camping are also sold out on ‘Coachella’s’ website.
With the cheapest general admission option, attendants will gain entrance into the venue and be provided with day parking lots for all three days. This option does not include shuttle access to the venue.
The VIP option for weekend two offers specialty food & drink vendors, air-conditioned restrooms, shaded seating areas and full cash bars. Attendants who purchase the VIP option will also have access to shuttles to the venue and can visit the car and tent camping areas.
Outside of the official ‘Coachella’ website, tickets are available on StubHub for both weekends one and two. The starting price for general admission tickets for weekend one on StubHub is $500 and can reach up to $9,450 for exclusive seating and hotel packages. Tickets on StubHub for weekend two start at $414 for general admission seating. This was the cheapest option out of all sites selling tickets to ‘Coachella’ for general admission seating.
Tickets for ‘Coachella’ on Vividseat’s website are roughly the same price with general admission tickets for both weekends starting at around $450. Vividseats also has options for VIP seating, which costs around $2,000.
SeatGeek also still has tickets available for both weekends, with the cheapest option being general admission tickets for week two starting at $470. General admission tickets for week one start at $533. Seat Geek also has more expensive options for VIP packages, which also range at about $2,000 to $2,5000.
Other websites that are also still selling tickets to ‘Coachella’ include Fanimal.com, TickPick.com, and Viagogo.com. The prices on these sites vary and each were similar to or more expensive than those of StubHub, Vividseats, and SeatGeek.
Tickets are selling quickly on all sites and the prices of tickets will likely increase as the show gets closer. If you are looking to attend ‘Coachella’ for the cheapest option, websites such as StubHub and SeatGeek offer the lowest rates for general admission tickets. However, these offers do not include lodging or shuttle access to the venue.
If you are looking to purchase a VIP package to attend ‘Coachella’, the cheapest option would be to purchase tickets from Coachella’s official website, as all other VIP packages on outside sites were nearly twice the price.
Dozens of artists will grace the desert at Coachella 2023 and hundreds of thousands of fans will be in attendance. Coachella 2023 is shaping up to be one of the most diverse and exciting music events of the year and tickets are still available, but are going fast.

Day one fans of Slowthai have known him as the Northampton grime rapper with punk sensibilities and a mad smile, a unique combination of abrasion and sensitivity. On UGLY—which stands for “U Gotta Love Yourself”—they get to know him more profoundly as he touches on fatherhood, hedonism, mental health, and otherness.
Ty’s third album has no features, but tons of collaborations: it took a village to get to this place of freedom—a rapper that bounces around with genres, excavating sounds across ‘90s darkside rave, alt-rock, punk, post-punk, rap, and grime. For UGLY, over the course of the last two years, Ty and his manager/creative director/cousin Lewis Levi were joined by photographer George Muncey, a number of producers and writers, including Dan Carey (Kate Tempest, Fontaines D.C.) and longtime Slowthai collaborator Kwes Darko, to create the rapper’s most revealing and eccentric album yet.
“We started doing really heavy stuff, got a drummer in, made more punk-y stuff and drifted away from the electronic hip-hop thing,” says Dan Carey. “That happened quite gradually.” The majority of the album was recorded in Carey’s home studio, but a few of the tracks, like “Falling” and “Tourniquet,” were completed at Narcissus, a studio in London. Collaborators came in and out.
“We had guest vocalists as well, and in some sessions we had Beabadoobee. At one point, we had James Blake in on the sessions as well, just jamming,” Kwes Darko laughs. “We’ve got 10 hours of jamming with James Blake somewhere. He didn’t make the album.”
“It was a good time. It was the most fun I’ve probably had, and [the most] freedom. Without barriers, I was just exploring,” Ty tells Complex, with his idiosyncratic smile. “It kind of just made me love doing it again. [Music making] started feeling like a chore at one point. Now, I just can’t wait to make more music.”
“ I wanted to challenge people and challenge myself. When something becomes muscle memory, you should do something else.”
A lot has changed in his life since the release of his sophomore LP, Tyron, in 2021. The 28-year-old has gone to therapy and become a dad. The latter, perhaps his proudest moment; an appointment he refers to as him now being “responsible for a little perfect human being.” All of the aforementioned somehow unearthed the confidence to realize he could make whatever fluid music he wanted if he allowed himself the space for that boldness in experimentation.
“At this point in time, I wanted to challenge people and challenge myself. When something becomes muscle memory, you should do something else or you’re never going to improve and you’re never gonna get better,” he asserts. That’s evident across the LP, and especially so on the title track “UGLY”, with its sludgy post-punk live band recording, Slowthai’s swaggering singing and forceful rapping–the maudlin spelling of “U-G-L-Y” repeated with increasing absurdity.

His hopes for listeners are simple. “I want to broaden horizons and open their eyes to different music,” he says of UGLY. “You got to love yourself and let people know they’re not alone—I want them to live with the album and grow with it. All of us have something ugly, so love yourself as is.”
Below, Ty and his closest collaborators break down the recipe behind his triumphant third LP, UGLY.
CHEFS IN THE KITCHEN
Slowthai will be the first to tell you: UGLY took an army with a shared vision. Below, we speak to some of Ty’s long-time collaborators (his manager/creative director Lewis Levi, trusted producer/right-hand-man Kwes Darko), new additions (rock producer Dan Carey, photographer/creative director George Muncey) as well as Slowthai himself.
Slowthai (Tyron Frampton) – Rapper
Dan Carey – Producer, Writer
Kwes Darko – Producer, Writer
Lewis Levi – Manager, Creative Director
George Muncey – Photographer, Creative Director
Zach Nahome – Producer, Writer
Ethan P. Flynn – Producer, Writer
Sega Bodega – Producer, Writer on “Feel Good”
Shygirl (Blane Muise) – Backing Vocals on “Feel Good”
Jacob Bugden (Beabadoobee) – Producer, Writer
Alexis Smith – Recording Engineer
Christian Wright – Mastering Engineer
Yuri Shibuichi – Drummer
Liam Toon – Drummer, Writer
Fontaines D.C. (Carlos O’Connell, Conor Curley, Conor Deegann III, Grian Chatten, Tom Coll) – Live band on “UGLY”
Oly Carey – Backing Vocals on “25% Club”
SLOWTHAI: Dan Carey and Kwes, they gassed me up. When you’re in the process of making music with other people, it’s a beautiful thing: the journey of it from the start to the finish and in between, the ups and downs. Obviously your life contributes to that. One day might come in and you’re extra hyperactive and the next day you’re overtired. Then the next day I’m super depressed. I don’t really want to be there. But then by the end of the day, man, I’m so thankful I was here… I’m so proud of everyone involved, but just proud of myself. And that’s a goal for me. I suppose I want to feel good.

How they began working with Slowthai:
DAN CAREY: I’ve been a fan of Ty since the beginning. He’s amazing. I’d been keen to try and do something with him, but I didn’t really know how to approach getting around to that.I think it was Kate Tempest’s The Books of Traps and Lessons that got Ty’s attention. We had time planned [together] but it got canceled because he had a baby. His manager, Lewis, called and suggested I get together with Kwes Darko, and we just made beats, some starting points for a potential record. We had an amazing couple of days. He had never been to my studio before, and it’s rammed full of interesting stuff. He was like, “Show me what you’ve got.” We went around the studio, in a clockwise direction, just switching things on, making stuff.
I had done the Fontaines D.C. record; Kwes and I had made the backing track for “UGLY.” I was joking, I said, “Why don’t we get Fontaines to come in and play along with it and make it sound immense?” And Ty was like “Yeah!” I’ve done all their records, they’re good mates, so I had them come in. That’s where the other dimension of the record started to come in: more guitars, two live drummers—instead of programmed stuff, or a mixture of the two.
KWES DARKO: Dan was someone I had always admired from afar. When I met him, it was like I had just met the more experienced mind of mine. I was looking at his studio, I was like, “You’re me, with an extra 10 or 15 years of me in the game.” It’s rare for me to meet producers of a certain era that I connect to. Dan’s open to experiencing new things. There’s no, “No, it should go this way.” That’s how we’ve always created: naturally. And Dan understood that. And him understanding more band stuff, that’s the element we wanted to bring in. Ty wanted more guitars, live instrumentation, and Dan’s space [has] all that.
LEWIS LEVI: Me and Ty are cousins and I manage him. I’m the Creative Director. I’ve been a fan of George’s work for the last like, six, seven years. I started showing him the music and was like, “This is the direction.” With the music videos: We’re both part of a duo. I’m part of a duo called THE REST, where I’ve got a partner called Alex [Motlhabane]. And George is part of a duo called UNCANNY, in which he has a business partner called Elliot [Elder], and everyone played a vital part [in the visuals] but me and George were the ones that stayed communicating the whole time basically.
GEORGE MUNCEY: On paper, it’s mental. It’s crazy to have so many cooks in the kitchen. For me and Lewis to both have our own separate things but to work with this fluidity, that doesn’t feel like there’s a hierarchy… things just work.
LEWIS LEVI: The bones of the project are people who, at their core, are very much inspired by challenges and boundary-pushing, rather than ego. “How do we push it forward? What’s the best thing?” The music videos are art pieces, in a way.
KEY INGREDIENTS
Post-punk influences, self-reflective artwork, and constant jamming and experimentation–on rock band instruments (guitars, drums, bass, piano) as well as modular synths, MPCs, Swarmatrons and more–built the unique vision for UGLY.
On key instrumentation:
DAN CAREY: The thing about Ty is that he’s not afraid to go down a new route, to follow a spark of a new idea. Kwes would be on the Octatrack, Zach would be on the laptop, and I’d be on the studio computer. Zach would say, “Give me a minute,” and take the vocals and fuck around on the track and send it back to me. There was stuff flying around all the time. Ty would react to that and sometimes that would change how he was writing the lyrics.
KWES DARKO: Dan has this rare synth; I can’t even describe what kind it is—it’s crazy rare. That was used quite a lot on the album, amd this crazy modular set up. There were times where we were resampling Ty’s voice, resampling it and running it through. A lot of it is in the detail of the music—there are things in there that you don’t necessarily hear, but they make up the painting. They make the picture make sense.
DAN CAREY: In my studio, there’s this big modular thing called the Colossus. And it’s quite present on a lot of the record. Quite often, I’d run parts through that thing for consistency of sound. Sometimes just the demo vocal. Ty’s really interesting: Once he’s delivered a vocal, he doesn’t really like to do it again. He doesn’t see the value. We’re both of the opinion that if it’s there, you should just leave it.
Most of the beat programming was done on an MPC. That’s really key. The Swarmatron is something that I rely on; it’s part of my sound. Whatever I’m doing, I have the Swarmatron sitting there somewhere. A lot of the analogy stuff is tracked through the Neve presets and mixed through an analog desk. Sometimes we sectioned off parts we wanted to hit harder. The guitars and amps on “Wotz Funny,” “Happy,” and “UGLY” we set things up in one room, a live room instead of a control room situation. Everything’s in the middle room for a big punchy sound, with lots of room mics. And the big modular synth setup tends to come to the fore and favored. My daughter is the female vocal on [“25% Club”]. She’s a massive fan. More than anything I’ve ever worked on.

What was playing in the background:
KWES DARKO: Ty’s into Daniel Johnston, Patti Smith… There were a few [alt-rock musical inspirations we were listening to]. But we also tried not to indulge into too much music. We’re not trying to re-create anything. I grew up around band music and rap and electronic music, Ty’s the same thing. We had pre-influences before the album. “Hey” by the Pixies is one of my favorite songs ever made.
SLOWTHAI: I was mainly listening to what we were doing: We’d make stuff, then I’d spin that the next day or so to see what we could do differently. But before that, it was a lot of the Pixies, the Verve, the Strokes, Joy Division—everyone that was so ahead of their time with what they were doing. Some days it would be Moby. I was listening to Muse and Radiohead, only because I love Thom Yorke’s tone. And Matthew Bellamy’s got quite a similar drone, so maybe I was influenced by them. I feel like I was more influenced by myself.
The meaning behind the artwork:
LEWIS LEVI: There are three different artworks. The blurry one is the back cover but there’s another one, the indie exclusives, where it’s like behind his head and he’s got his face down and you can see a big scar on his face. It’s less to do with “he looks UGLY.” It’s more, like, this is how the world makes him feel. The [closeup of the] eye for the front cover is because the album is so up close and personal, you feel like he’s right in your ear [through] all the whispering and shouts. That’s why it starts close.

GEORGE MUNCEY: A big thing with all the imagery was to make it intimate, raw, and personal. In the widest shot, the full body image, Ty actually takes the photo himself. I gave him a self-release cable. So, when he felt that he was ready, we got him to take the photo. It’s a little sphere that blows a puff of air that triggers the camera. There was a big desire to lean into a stripped back look, as opposed to maybe something in the past, which has been charismatic and very loud. [This is] a complete 180…
For the self-shot photos, there’s a series of photos called Ghetto by Broomberg & Chanarin, which is a photographic duo. And they went to seven ghettos across the globe and did this kind of documentary photo series throughout them. At the end, they got the patients in the asylums to take their own photos with a self-shutter. That was one of the things which was driving me towards that idea.
TABLE SETUP

Slowthai and his team value welcoming studios–places where play is promoted, and ideas are explored–if you demand a song sound a certain way, you’re out. If the space feels like it’s meant for productivity and productivity alone, it was out.
KWES DARKO: There was a mix between studios. A lot of the ideas were actually created in a studio called Narcissus in Northwest London, Wilson. That’s a studio that is just close to our hearts. It feels like home. It’s a playground for us—that’s how I like my studios: you’re gonna walk into a space where it doesn’t look like you’re going to work. You’re walking into a space like your friend’s bedroom, kind of thing. It’s got toys that you can just play [with] in the studio. And Narcissus Studio has that vibe, which made it so much easier to go in there and jam. We’ve got jams from Narcissus for four, five hours, just playing live with a whole band and we’d create from that. So, Narcissus is really where the bed was created. Then we moved onto finalize everything: re-recording drums, retrack drums, retrack guitars, bass… synths, all that was done at Dan’s home studio, which is amazing.
THE RECIPE
The message behind UGLY–“U Gotta Love Yourself”–drove the punk-y exorcism that became the album: from YouTube-influenced music visualizers, wild days in the studio, and mind-blowing detours.
Landing on the album’s name:
SLOWTHAI: I had Wotz Funny first, and then it became UGLY. I always knew I wanted to make an album called UGLY. I wanted a band called “UGLY.” When the acronym came to me, “U Gotta Love Yourself,” I was like, “That’s the title.” At a point in time, my outlook, and the way I felt about myself was “UGLY.” Shebang! That’s the one right there.
KWES DARKO: I was thinking about the Joker, a mad way of thinking—a weird, bizarre vision—and seeing how we could connect those two dots. Ty, to us, he is the Joker. He’s got that energy to him.
The first track they made:
KWES DARKO: The first track that was made on the album was “Selfish,” that was me and Ty. He had a setup in Northampton for a bit and he was just messing around and “Selfish” just came about. He had just had his baby, he got away for just a few hours to go to the studio, and we ended up at “Selfish.”
DAN CAREY: When [Kwes] first gave “Selfish” to me, he was like, “This one’s crazy.” It was the loudest sounding thing. We tracked the drums again—a fairly simple process of going through some of the synths from the demo.
The final track they made:
DAN CAREY: We thought we were done with the record. Ty asked, “Can you make me a really nasty beat that sounds like I’m having a panic attack in a nightclub? I haven’t said everything I need to say yet.” So, I made the beat for “Yum.” He wrote the whole lyric in five, 10 minutes. That was the only take he ever did of it. I remember sending it to Lewis, who just replied, “Yikes.” I sent it to the label, and they said, “You’ve simultaneously ruined and made my day. That’s the most horrible thing I’ve ever heard and it’s the best thing on the record. You should put it as track one.”
“Ty, to us, he is the Joker. He’s got that energy to him.”
SLOWTHAI: I’d been in therapy, and I was quite pissed off because in my head, I’m not gonna get all these answers from this guy. He’s not gonna sort my life out. I actually got to fix it myself. So, I just started writing [“Yum”]. I was writing it in a way where I would never actually think it’s cool to say. It’s fucking ridiculous. I went to another studio, I got fucked up, Dan took some shrooms and texted “I’ve done some more work to it, it’s crazy.” And I’m in this big studio in Bath, and they’ve got these massive speakers, and it was seven minutes long at this point. Everyone [else] in the studio was making pop music and they were looking at me like, “Fuck.” Their minds were blown.
On the making of the “Selfish” music video:
LEWIS LEVI: “Selfish” originally was a music video idea that I had for a song called “Toaster,” from [Ty’s first album] Nothing Great About Britain. I’ve wanted to do it for ages. It was a much bigger idea actually. There was this idea: Ty on this journey through this block of flats, trying to get to the top, and when he got to the top level, it’s all made of glass. Everyone in the building rushes to the top and falls off and dies, basically. That’s where the idea of him smashing the room ended up coming from. We were talking about Mr. Beast on YouTube, we were like, “That would be a crazy music video.” And we did [the 24-hour] livestream and the reward was like, you get a music video, and you’ve like been part of this journey. It was an experiment on everyone’s patience, not just his. Some people stayed and watched the whole thing. It was a worldwide experiment. And the box was a two-way mirror: We could see him, but he couldn’t see out.
GEORGE MUNCY: On a technical standpoint, you can’t really translate into the video how horrible it was in that room. Two-way mirrors reduce the amount of light that goes through them. That’s just how they work. So, it was about three times brighter in the room than it looked through the windows. The lights had to be cranked up way high. It was unbearable and when he laid down and looked at the ceiling, he said it hurt when he closed his eyes.
On the making of the “Feel Good” music video:
KWES DARKO: “Feel Good” was me, Ty, Shygirl, and Sega Bodega. Ty and Shygirl were fans of each other’s music. It was like, “Let’s see what comes.” The most surprising thing was Sega started playing this guitar riff, and I’m like, “What’s that?” Sega Bodega, the music that he’s known for, is in the synth world. So, when he’s playing, we’re like, “What? You’re playing this?” I had my MPC and started chopping up some drums around it and naturally built this song. Ty was in it. It was such a free-flowing moment. And Shygirl did the little BVs in the back, the extra touch. “Feel Good” was a feel good moment.
SLOWTHAI: There’s a guy at the very end [of the “Feel Good” video] and he’s got a lump in his throat. Man, when I watched that video back—damn, I could not believe it. That’s the whole point, innit? Bringing people together who may feel lost and alone and showing them that they’re not. We all feel these things. And when you’re in this space, it’s a safe space for everyone to be themselves, fully, without compromise or any expectations of how you’re meant to be, so, it’s beautiful.
LEWIS LEVI: We dropped 12 visualizers, one for every song album. Originally, I wanted fans to be the people in them, not Ty. That’s where the idea for “Feel Good” came from. We were trying to do 75 fans at first, but it wouldn’t work out—each fan only got four seconds in the video anyway. [There were 35.] We shot it across five days. The wholesomeness of it is the whole point.
On the 12 visualizers for each album track:
GEORGE MUNCY: I’m a pretty firm believer that leaning into something like visualizers and trying to make them as good as they can be, is more beneficial and worthwhile in the current climate than spending all of your money on one music video. Trying to build up an experience that builds the world and accompanies the album can be more powerful than something that only lasts three minutes. And without the likes of MTV… Building something that heightens the entire album and paints a new picture, I think that’s potentially the way forward.

“All of us have something ugly, so love yourself as is.”
LEWIS LEVI: [The visualizers take place in the same room] because it’s like the analogy of Plato’s Cave. Everything that we externalize or see is actually only from our own imagination. What we’re seeing in that room is the feeling of the album. It is where his mind is at. It’s murky and grimy.
Since the hit series Bel-Air premiered on the popular streaming channel Peacock last year, we have gotten to know the cast of the hit reboot as the characters face big topics from mental health, class issues, racism, and even jealousy. The drama is getting even bigger as Bel-Air heads into its sophomore season. Now, however, we wonder…will this second season of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot series season 2 be as good as the first?
Bel-Air’s Season Two Hits the Ground With Big Drama
Bel Air’s first season started with a “fresh” feel and a dose of lightheartedness that immediately pulled the fans in. However, the series has taken a more dramatic turn as season two gets underway. Season two premiered on February 23 and begins where the first left off with Will (Jabari Banks) moving out of the mansion after a series of betrayals come to light. As season one of the hit series wrapped up, Will uncovers secrets about his father Lou (Marlon Wayans) that were kept from him by members of his family including his Uncle Phil (Adrian Holmes) and his Aunt Viv (Cassandra Freeman).
Bel-Air’s drama largely centers around Will’s experiences moving into the mansion and coming head-to-head with a variety of challenges faced by the differing classes. However, there is plenty more drama to be found in all storylines as the series progresses into season two. Will’s cousin Hilary continues her relationship with Jazz and the two decide to take their relationship to an “official” level. Elsewhere, Aunt Vivian struggles in her new fellowship role at Neeman’s.
Will Faces An Unexpected Truth
The hit drama’s second season hit the streaming airwaves with plenty of turmoil taking over the Banks clan. The premiere episode titled A Fresh Start begins with Jabari Banks’s Will crashing at Jazz’s (Jordan L. Jones) after the secrets about his father come to light. Will focused on finding his independence and achieving his basketball dreams. However, a heart-to-heart with his Uncle Phil – including a long-overdue apology – leads to Will’s return to the mansion in season two’s early episodes. Meanwhile, Will’s relationship with Lisa (Simone Joy Jones) hits a cooling-off period.
Elsewhere, Carlton is still working on his anxiety issues especially as he sees himself put into a variety of high-anxiety scenarios. Carlton has found comfort in Bel-Air Academy’s Black Student Union. This is a new development after this group previously disliked Carlton for clashing over racial concerns while Carlton served as class president.
Carlton’s chances to make a difference in this group comes when a Bel-Air Academy teacher Mrs. Hughes – who is played by Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum (Tatyana Ali) gets fired for providing off-curriculum literature and information delving into racism and sexuality and other controversial and tough but incredibly important issues.
The Bel-Air Academy’s Black Student Union plans a walk-out protest against the firing. Carlton is behind this plan, originally. However, another instructor warns the student of the possible reproductions that could come from his involvement in the protests. Struggling with the anxiety that comes from these concerns Carlton opens up to Will about these concerns. However, Will’s focus keeps him from grasping the enormity of the situation.
Tatiyana Ali’s Mrs. Hughes is making a big impact on many students at the Bel-Air Academy. The impact is especially apparent to viewers as Ali’s character inspires Akira Akbar’s character, the youngest of the Banks children, Ashley. This, Fresh Prince fans know, is the very character Ali played in the original sitcom series. Mrs. Hughes knows there are repercussions for providing Ashley and other Bel-Air Academy students with materials outside the school’s curriculum. But the impact on the greater good is more important to the middle school teacher.
Will’s Big Basketball Dreams Continue In Bel-Air’s Season Two
As the second episode of Bel-Air’s season two gets underway, the episode, titled Speaking Truth has Will displaying his spot-on talents on the basketball courts. Will remains laser-focused on a future in basketball – especially when it comes to scoring a division one basketball scholarship. This leads the talented player to forget that basketball is wholly a team sport. Ultimately creating some major issues between Will and the rest of the team.
Will’s ego gets the best of him as he belittles his fellow players, thinking he is the only one who should be making the biggest plays. Will ignores his coach and scores several three-pointers along with several dunks – all while forgetting about his teammates. Will’s arrogance may be a roadblock in his future with the game and chances for a division one college scholarship.
Bel-Air’s season two also sees Will hoping to catch the eye of a famed basketball scout, Doc (Brooklyn McLinn). Will is certain a relationship with this particular scout will take him to the right places in his basketball career. Will’s dream does finally come true as his talents seem to notice the basketballer. However, we soon learn that Doc’s decision isn’t based so much on Will’s abilities but rather on the Banks’ fortune.
Bel-Air Reimagines A Sitcom Classic
The last few years have been all about reboots, bringing new life to some of our favorite classics. And the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot series, Bel-Air has an extra exciting history giving us a dramatic reimagining of the original 1990s sitcom hit starring Will Smith. This new series is produced by Smith and inspired by a viral trailer clip by Morgan Cooper that reimagined the iconic 90s sitcom series with a raw and dramatic lens.
Sure, most reboots try hard to develop their voice. However, the Peacock hit Bel-Air did something different turning a sitcom format into a “fresh” drama series. Part of the best pieces of the series is the fact that the reboot series delves deeper into the issues. Issues that the black-led Fresh Prince cast could only touch upon while on the networks three decades ago. All of this was originally dreamed up by Morgan Cooper’s enormously popular video bringing us the dramatic take on the popular classic sitcom series.
Cooper is part of Bel-Air’s creative team along with Will Smith. He serves as director, co-writer, and executive producer on the popular Peacock series. T.J. Brady and Rasheed Newson serve as co-showrunners and executive producers of the series. New episodes premiere every Thursday through April 27 on Peacock.
The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 2 released on Wednesday on Disney+ and saw Din Djarin, Grogu and company sprinting through the plotlines laid out in the first episode. While Episode 1 was all about bringing the audiences back up to speed, Season 3 Episode 2 was about plunging them (literally) into the deep lore of Mandalore.
Mandalorians are by far the most interesting group of people in Star Wars. They have such a deep, rich and fascinating lore. While Star Wars, and all the species in it, has a deep lore itself, this particular part of the franchise is unique.
For starters, that’s because the only Mandalorian ever seen in the films was Boba Fett. He, for as interesting as he was and is in his spin-off, is nothing like Din Djarin.
Djarin clings to the small religious sect of Mandalore that only a few do, even when he meets others that laugh in the face of it. Bo-Katan, Koska Reeves and others remove their helmets with no repercussions, but Djarin insists on finding the obsolete Living Waters to redeem himself for doing that.
That’s the premise laid out in Episode 1, and it’s almost completely resolved (or at least abandoned) in The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 2.
The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 2: What happened this time?
Din Djarin visited Peli Motto once again, who’s become almost as much of a recurring character as anyone. He wants to find an IG memory processor to fix his friend and the only droid he trusts, IG-11.
When he’s told that’s basically impossible, he begrudgingly takes an astromech she has to scout the planet. That effectively ends the plotline laid out in the first episode and plunges viewers into the future.
When he does discover that the air isn’t polluted, he goes down into the ruined city of Sundari on Mandalore, which was destroyed in the purge. Upon his arrival below, he begins looking for the mines of Mandalore so he can redeem himself.
He is attacked by a mechanized organism that is able to capture him and appears to be preparing to eat him. Grogu, then, must leap (he literally Force leaps into his chair) into action. He has to go find Bo-Katan, just about the only person who can help Din.
Bo-Katan agrees to help Din, using his fallen Darksaber to slay the organism. It’s worth pointing out that she uses the weapon much more effectively than Djarin does.
She knows the way to the Living Waters and guides the injured Mandalorian there with Grogu. When he begins to recite the Creed he clings to, he’s sucked down into the water. Bo-Katan jumps in after him and finds him knocked out at the bottom of the water.
As she drags him up, she catches a glimpse of a monstrous beast that opens its eye and looks at her. She scrambles to the surface and drags her fallen counterpart to land, clearly shaken to her core by what she’s seen.
That’s where the episode ends, one of the more cliff-hanger-esque endings Jon Favreau and company have cooked up for the show.
The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 2 suffers from poor lighting. The entire episode, with few exceptions, takes place in the ruins of Mandalore. There’s no light beneath the surface, which makes things difficult to see.
However, it’s not dark enough that it’s impossible to see, though there are curious instances when characters turn off their lights and make it even worse.
It’s dim and mysterious, which could very well be the vibe the crew was going for. It’s a bit of a horror episode, with a few dark themes explored and a couple of jump scares.
Aside from that, there’s really nothing wrong with it from a technical aspect. The plot does quickly abandon the premise of the season, since Din Djarin has technically bathed in the waters and thus redeemed himself now (does anyone really believe he won’t remove his helmet again to save or help Grogu?).
Nevertheless, The Mines of Mandalore is another solid entry into the franchise. It gives viewers a look at how far Grogu has come. In the earlier seasons, he never would have been able to get back into his chair. This time, he flips into it with ease, navigates all the way back to Bo-Katan and gets her to help.
It also continues to explore the depths of the lore. Season 1 pulled in viewers with what felt like a Star Wars-adjacent story. Season 2 connected it to the greater universe. The third season seems to be pulling viewers into the lore like the beast pulled the Mandalorian down under the water.
Fortunately, for those unfamiliar with the depths of Star Wars (which is a lot of people, even dedicated Star Wars nerds), Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau are holding the audience’s hand.
They use the relationship between Mando and Grogu to explain things. Din Djarin gives his “son” the rundown on what’s going on. Bo-Katan explains it to both Djarin and Grogu, who are relatively clueless. So is the audience, so it’s a useful if boring exposition tactic.
This episode isn’t groundbreaking. It’s not even the best of this season. Nevertheless, The Mandalorian continues to prove why it’s must-watch television. What on earth (or Mandalore) will Djarin, Katan and Grogu do next?
NBA Youngboy songs have hit the heart of many people. NBA YoungBoy has been making music since he was a teen. Even though he is only 23 years old, he is now one of the best rappers of his generation. YoungBoy Never Broke Again is a rapper, singer, and songwriter from the United States. Despite the fact that not all of his music sells well, he has a large group of loyal fans who buy everything he releases.
Furthermore, his discography already has a number of gold and platinum hits, and there’s no doubt that he will have many more in the future. At the end of his career, he will have put out more songs than a lot of other artists. With so many NBA Youngboy songs to pick from, we decided to limit it to some of his best. Read on to learn about our picks for the best NBA YoungBoy songs of all time.
NBA Youngboy’s Dirty Iyanna
“Dirty Iyanna” is a unique diss song that is based on NBA YoungBoy’s relationship with Floyd Mayweather’s daughter, Iyanna Mayweather. Even though diss tracks are common in rap music, they are usually about other artists. The song was heavily influenced by Michael Jackson’s hit song “Dirty Diana.” In spite of the fact that it’s not YoungBoy’s usual style, it’s an interesting example of his creativity and diversity.
Valuable Pain by NBA Youngboy
NBA Youngboy has listed this song as one of his best songs. Valuable Pain, which has been watched over 217 million times, is one example of why fans embrace his music. “Valuable Pain” discusses the difficulties NBA Youngboy encountered in keeping a relationship with a woman he loved. These difficulties stemmed from a variety of factors, including the woman’s infidelity.
More attractively, this song has some of the most moving lyrics, and it touched many people’s emotions. In this music video, we also see his son, Draco. This shows again how much he cares about his family.
Here is a notable part of his lyrics:
“Told you that I’d do anything for you
I just don’t know what they want
And I wasn’t frontin’ when I told you I love you
Girl, you the only one that I want”
NBA Youngboy – Through the Storm
In this NBA Youngboy song, he is not talking about clouds when he says that different kinds of storms can happen at night. NBA Youngboy talks about some of his early experiences, like when he got into trouble that he could have avoided. For example, think about how he got rich. In this case, when he talks about “storms,” he means exactly what he has experienced in life.
Also, here are some lyrics from this NBA Youngboy song. However, you should check out this and lets us know what it means to you in the comment section.
“Late at night, I used to sneak out my grandfather window
And I was coolin’ on a flight, and I was hittin’ them licks though
Wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be shit, so I ain’t gotta trip though
Ten thousand dollars, that ain’t shit, I gave him that times three though”
Kacey Talk by NBA Youngboy
One thing that NBA YoungBoy’s fans seem to like about him, is his ability to be vulnerable in his music. “Kacey Talk,” which is a guitar-driven song named after one of his children, is an excellent illustration of this. “Kacey Talk” serves as a dedication to YoungBoy Never Broke Again’s one-year-old kid, Kacey Alexander Gaulden. Even though the song has some soft parts, it also has parts that are strong.
Hot Now
Sometimes artists need to remind people of who they are, and “Hot Now” was one of NBA YoungBoy’s opportunities to do so. Although the song is brief, NBA YoungBoy makes the most of every second. He raps in the song, “Baby lady, I need that fan because I’m hot now (I need that fan)/Broke a** n***as with that playin’, they get shot down (That playin’)/Plenty of money, b***h, come on my land, see what I got now.”
Lonely Child
“Lonely Child” is another song that shows how open he is in his songs. Even though the song has a beautiful pace, it has a pretty sad mood. He raps about losing loved ones, being a father, and having broken relationships. Even though NBA YoungBoy doesn’t always have the best reputation in the music business, songs like these show that he’s just like the rest of us.
Subsequently, NBA YoungBoy’’s emotional bars on “Lonely Child” speak to how celebrity has not only elevated him to a pedestal but also isolated him there, stripping him of his human status and separating him from his loved ones whom he’s lost along the way.
“The way I came in the game
The image that I had put out
They wouldn’t expect me to have feelings
Know it probably don’t seem like it
That’s why they talk about me like I ain’t human, but we all is”
Untouchable
If there’s one thing NBA YoungBoy has made very obvious in his music, it’s that no one can touch him. Having said that, the song “Untouchable” is really on-brand. In this song, it’s interesting that YoungBoy doesn’t brag too much. Instead, he raps about how he got into the business and how thankful he is for all he has done.
All In
Many people in the industry have said that once they’ve reached a certain level of success, it’s hard to trust the people around them. This is something NBA YoungBoy frequently discusses in his songs. “If I say how I feel, would you really listen? If you was all mine, I’d be all in” In the chorus, YoungBoy delves into his innermost thoughts and reflects on his legacy, while laying out a path to a correct future.
Outside Today
Most of the time, an artist’s most famous music isn’t always their best, but “Outside Today” really showed what NBA YoungBoy could do. The song is raw and honest, with a catchy chorus, which we all know is a recipe for success in the music industry.
NBA Youngboy- 38 Baby
Lastly, we are ending this list with NBA Yougboy’s most notable song. “38 Baby” was one of Youngboy’s first major hits, amassing the most listens of any of the 14 songs on his 2016 album of the same name.
Moreover, it was published when he was just 16 years old, but it shows how emotionally mature the rapper was at such a young age. Youngboy’s words were raw and unabashed even as a teen. “38 Baby” exemplified this, with lyrics referencing the street he grew up on and a disclosure that he never goes anywhere without a revolver on him.
Air, the much anticipated upcoming Michael Jordan movie, opens in theaters in April. Movie and basketball fans are rightfully pumped. The film is noted to be a cinematic masterpiece. Critics state it captures the essence of one of the most groundbreaking partnerships in sports history. And here is everything we know about it.
Indeed, movies about sports, particularly basketball, are not new. Basketball and cinema have shared a rich history, dating back to the 1930s when the Harlem Globetrotters first appeared in films.
However, despite numerous basketball-themed movies and documentaries, a biopic on one of the sport’s most prominent and distinguished players, Michael Jordan, has yet to be made.
Jordan’s impact on the sport is undeniable. He has won six NBA championships, five MVP awards, and two Olympic gold medals. Not to mention many other numerous other accolades. Widely regarded as one of the greatest athletes of all time, Jordan and his legacy have continued growing. Even in his retirement, his Air Jordan brand of shoes is still wildly popular.
Nike’s partnership with Jordan to create the Air Jordan brand of sneakers in 1984. And it was considered a risky move. The NBA had strict rules about uniformity in footwear. Jordan’s preference for colorful sneakers went against the norm.
However, Nike’s marketing campaign for the Air Jordans was a monumental success. It featured Jordan in iconic ads and created a cult following around the brand. The shoes were not only a triumph on the court, but they also became a fashion statement off the court. Fans clamored for each latest release.
The Air Jordan line of sneakers continues to be a chief player in the sneaker industry today. New releases create a buzz among sneakerheads almost 40 years later.
The Buzz about the Movie ‘Air’
The countdown has begun. One month until AIR: Courting a Legend is exclusively in theaters April 5, 2023. #AIRMoviepic.twitter.com/7AN4UbE9xO
Although movies such as Space Jam (1996) featured Michael Jordan, it was not about Jordan’s life story. Air is something completely different.
Air highlights the groundbreaking partnership between Jordan and Nike. A relationship that forever changed how we view sports branding and fashion. Specifically, Ben Affleck’s Air attempts to show audiences a new side to a world they thought they knew.
Air explores the humble beginnings of Jordan. It also dives into how Nike went from being a joke in the industry to one of the world’s biggest sports accessory brands. Additionally, it focuses on the rise of Nike’s Air Jordan shoe and its iconic part of the sports shoe world.
The film is set in the 1980s when Nike struggled to compete with rivals such as Adidas and Converse. The company’s executives were looking for a way to get a foothold in the basketball market. That’s when Vaccaro approached them with the idea of signing Jordan.
However, Nike’s management initially hesitated. They thought that the rookie player needed to be more proven to be worth the investment. Eventually, they took the risk. The Air Jordan line became one of the most popular and profitable shoe brands of all time.
In Air, audiences will witness the power of teamwork as Nike’s fledgling basketball division takes a risk that pays off more than anyone could have imagined.
Air presents audiences with an all-star ensemble cast. The film features Matt Damon as Sonny Vaccaro. Vaccaro is the aspiring sports executive who signed Jordan to his historic contract at Nike.
In addition, Ben Affleck plays Nike co-founder Phil Knight. Knight saw the prospects in Jordan when no one else did. Meanwhile, Deloris Jordan, portrayed by Viola Davis, brings a mother’s perspective to the table. Deloris fiercely advocates for her son’s worth and talent.
In addition to the main cast, the movie also features a supporting cast of talented actors. Comedian Jimmy Kimmel, who plays a fictionalized version of himself, and Jon Bernthal, who plays the head of Nike’s marketing division. Both make unforgettable cameos.
Air marks the first time Affleck directs his longtime friend and collaborator, Damon. The two have previously worked together on a number of projects, including Good Will Hunting (1997) which they co-wrote and starred in, as well as Dogma (1999) and the Jay and Silent Bob movies.
Air promises to be a riveting portrayal of the partnership between Michael Jordan and Nike that transformed the basketball world and revolutionized sneaker culture.
Fans of basketball, shoe enthusiasts, and Michael Jordan fans alike are eagerly anticipating the release of Air and are hungrily awaiting the chance to witness the story of how a rookie basketball player and a fledgling shoe company changed the game forever.
Air is scheduled to be released in theaters in April 2023.
Harlow started his career in 2015 but gained massive popularity in 2020. The song that put him on the watchlist would be “WHATS POPPIN.” Harlow also has Cole Bennett of Lyrical Lemonade to thank for the exposure of that song.
Many could call Harlow a one-hit-wonder, but with the streaming numbers he does, the haters should take a seat. He has two studio albums under his belt with 32 singles, six of which are features.
As the popularity of Jack continues, let’s look at his discography with his top 5 most streamed songs.
Tyler Herro
This song was released on Harlow’s “THATS WHAT THEY ALL SAY” album. Coming out on October 22, 2020, this song pays homage to the basketball player/friend Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat. To also add, he named the song as well as referenced him in the lyrics.
“My homeboy Tyler he play in South Beach / He told me this summer he gon’ fix my jumper” (“Tyler Herro“).
The use of the flute added into the instrumental with Harlow’s rhymes makes you want to bob your head. The catchiness and transitions of his lyrics make this song worth a hit.
First Class
First teased by Harlow on March 31, 2022, on TikTok and Instagram. The song gained immediate popularity and attention even before the release date on April 8, 2022. The sample used in the song is what made this song gain attraction, which fit so well for some odd reason.
As soon as this song was released, it was used everywhere on TikTok. Jack Harlow even took the time to react to some of these posts.
Attracting 620,851,637 streams on Spotify, this was the first song everyone listened to when it dropped on Harlow’s “Come Home The Kids Miss You” album. The famous Fergie song “Glamorous’s” chorus was used on this song to help Harlow sing his chorus.
“I been a (G), throw up the (L)
Sex in the (A-M), uh-huh
(O-R-O-U-S, yeah)
And I can put you in (first class, up in the sky)
I can put you in (first class, up in the, up-up in the).”
Whats Poppin Remix
The song was so popular they had to run it back with a remix. In Addition to Jack Halrow’s song came DaBaby, Tory Lanez, and Lil Wayne. Being released on June 24, 2020, Harlow first teased the track on his Instagram two days before the actual release. The song generated 647,734,569 streams on Spotify.
Furthermore, Harlow had this to say before the song’s release, “There are some times when it’s your duty to spit, but I already showed you that I can rap,” he told Billboard in March.
Including three generational rappers in this remix added the spice the song needed. Everyone did what they had to do with the song, and it came out perfectly. Adding the flow of DaBaby to the verse of Tory Lanez, to ending it off with one of the GOATS, Lil Wayne.
WHATS POPPIN
This was Jack Harlow’s breakout song and arguably what brought him into the spotlight. First released on January 21, 2020, with a music video directed by legend Cole Bennett. An upbeat instrumental with Harlow going from slow to fast verses compliments the song well.
Also, adding the well-known chorus, many think of this song first when it comes to his music. Even growing as a TikTok sound for a while, this song is just recognizable. Additionally, the song was nominated for Best Rap Performance at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.
Gaining the Number 2 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2020, this song was on everyone’s mind when it was released. Spotify says this song generated 688,114,346 streams.
Industry Baby
Lastly on the list is “Industry Baby” by Lil Nas X featuring Jack Harlow. This is one of the few songs Jack Harlow has a feature on, but the streaming numbers are insane. This song was released on July 23, 2021.
According to Spotify, this song has generated 1,693,344,852 streams. A majority of artists never reach that milestone in their career, so this is an accomplishment for him. Who would have thought the chemistry between the two artists would work so well. The mixing of Lil Nas X singing and rapping with Harlow’s smooth entrance and slick-back voice gives this song a great collaboration.
This song also won three awards in the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards: Best Collaboration, Best Art Direction, and Best Visual Effects.
Even though Harlow’s most recent album was brought with mixed emotions towards the negative side, we still wonder what comes next from the Kentucky native. The entertainment of his persona and his musical ability are what keep us intrigued.
A generational talent gone way too soon, Juice Wrld was one of the most influential artists to this day. Born December 2, 1998, Jarad Anthony Higgins, better known as Juice Wrld, was a rising star from the Soundcloud era. Starting his musical career in high school, many of his peers persuaded him to rap and freestyle.
Releasing his first song, “Forever,” on SoundCloud in 2014, Juice Wrld knew he had the talent to continue forward. Furthermore, dropping his first EP, “999,” on June 15, 2017, which included his most streamed song today, “Lucid Dreams.”
Album Rankings

According to Spotify’s Twitter on April 4, 2022, these would be the rankings based on streams. “Goodbye & Good Riddance” (6.4 B+), “Legends Never Die” (4.2B+), “Death Race For Love” (4.2B+), “Fighting Demons” (1.4B+), and”WRLD ON DRUGS” (1.1B+).
With the news/leaks of his final album, “The Party Never Ends,” potentially dropping this year. Let’s take a look at Juice Wrld’s album catalog and rank them.
Death Race For Love
A bit of a controversial pick between this album and “Goodbye & Good Riddance,” but in terms of versatility and pure talent, this album is number one. Released on March 8, 2019, this was Juice’s second studio album and the last album to be released during his lifetime.
Freestyling the album in just five days is a skill that not many can achieve. In this album, Juice Wrld speaks about taking drugs and his addictions, as well as talking about relationships and his love and lust.
An accomplishment in his career as this album was his first to score a No. 1 on the Billboard 200. As well as producing hit songs like “Robbery,” “Empty,” “Fast,” “Make Believe,” etc. The album feels like a journey into the life of Juice Wrld, as the songs reference his lifestyle and his love for his recent girlfriend, Alli Lotti.
Goodbye & Good Riddance
Arguably one of Juice Wrld’s best albums to many of his fans was also the first album that many of his fans came across. This was Juice’s first studio album, released on May 23, 2018. Featuring 17 songs with just one feature (Lil Uzi Vert), this album is a roller coaster of a journey. Including the use of skits in the album; if you listened to the songs in a specific order, you could see his journey.
In this album, the songs varied between the drug use and addiction he faced, as well as referencing his past relationships and achieving success over time.
Some of Juice Wrlds most popular songs came off this album, like “All Girls Are The Same,” “Lucid Dreams,” “Lean Wit Me,” “Armed And Dangerous,” and many more. To this day, many will believe this is the number one album to date and is a staple to his music career.
Fighting Demons
His most recent album to date, “Fighting Demons“ comes in at number three. Released on December 10, 2021, just two days after the two-year anniversary of his death. The album initially had 18 songs, but after reaching specific goals put out by Grade A, like getting a certain amount of views on YouTube and the community begging for more songs. So on March 18, 2022, five more songs were added to the album.
Again Juice Wrld referenced his battle with drug addiction and added Eminem and Justin Bieber to the album to talk about their struggles as well. The album also spoke about what the name implies, and that’s the battling of his demons. The album was mainly a catalog of leaks many fans had heard before and where the names or beats were changed but still used the original lyrics.
This album is still new to the list, but it holds a lot of fans’ favorite unreleased songs at the time. Examples would be “Burn,” “Cigarettes,” “Rockstar In His Prime,” “You Wouldn’t Understand,” and probably one of the most favorite songs in the community, “Sometimes.”
Legends Never Die
This was Juice Wrld’s first posthumous album after his death in December 2019. The album consisted of 22 songs and was realized seven months after his death on July 10, 2020. This album felt like a different vibe from the usual music he created. The album gave more of a poetic side to Juice as well as a melodic side as this album consisted of a lot of vocalizing and singing in a way.
The album came with a response of positive views, and according to Metacritic, they rated this album a 75/100 based on ten reviews. The difference with this album was that it was also released with many singles. Additionally, that meant we heard a decent amount of songs before the release.
This album did have some songs played on the radio and made big success on the music charts. Songs like “Righteous,” “Come & Go,” “Tell Me U Luv Me,” and “Smile” made significant impacts. But “Wishing Well” was probably the most influential song on this album as it spoke about his hardships with drugs and needing help.
Not much of an album, but more of a mixtape; this was Juice Wrld’s only published collab “album.” This mixtape was a joint effort between Juice Wrld and Future. Releasing on October 19, 2018, this mixtape can be considered underrated.
Even though this is a mixtape, this deserves a spot on the list, even if it’s last. The style and charisma Juice had on this album were insane. Mixed with a legend like Future, with his well-known voice and vocals, making this a special mixtape. The chemistry these two had with each other was incredible.
This mixtape barely gets spoken about, but it has made some bangers and has had some decent success. Some songs to look at for would be “Jet Lag,” “Fine China,” “Realer N Realer,” and “7 Am Freestyle.“
Even after the death of Juice Wrld, he continues to push insane numbers and has a very loyal fanbase. Arguably when he features on an album, he puts in some maximum effort and helps push that song to popularity.
We will never know how his full potential, but he will always have a special place in the rap community.
