BLP Kosher stands out wherever he goes. The South Florida rapper has an attention-grabbing hairstyle—two wicks stick straight out from the sides of his head—and he fills his songs with off-the-wall quotables, all while proudly representing his Jewish faith.

It’s tempting to say otherwise, but make no mistake: Coachella 2023 is as rap-heavy as ever. Seriously—it’s in the numbers. Since 2016, the iconic concert series has listed an average of about 15 hip-hop acts per festival, with this year’s edition landing at around 20, or 21 if we include the polymath Frank Ocean, who’s […]
Lil Pump is sitting in his Miami mansion, contemplating his own mortality. “I’ve got to take care of my body,” he says, leaning against the corner of his massive walk-in closet. “Shit, I could have all the money in the world, but if I’m sitting in a fucking hospital, what the fuck? You can’t do anything. […]
A popular line of thought in the last couple of years has been that Rae Sremmurd would have dominated the “TikTok era.” The rationale is easy to understand: the group—made up of Mississippi-born brothers Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi—writes killer hooks and offers a vision of an unending good time like we haven’t seen since […]
