Sure, Animal Crossing might offer a wholesome, anthropomorphic escape from the coronavirus quarantine, but if you’re looking for content that speaks more directly to the phenomenon at hand, a Canadian developer has made just the video game for you. A Fold Apart, by Toronto-based Lightning Rod Games, is a puzzle game about a long-distance relationship. […]
Fred VanVleet isn’t one to take things lying down. Unless smothered by his two children as he plays games with them around the house, VanVleet has keenly avoided taking the cards that are dealt to him, laying back and accepting whatever fate comes his way. After going undrafted, he knuckled down and competed his way […]
“But really I would rather be at home all by myself,” Alessia Cara belted on her breakthrough single, 2015’s anti-social anthem “Here.” Well. Funny how things work out. With the global community in coronavirus-prompted hermit mode, it’s safe to say the Canadian pop singer won’t need to worry about getting stuck at lame parties anytime soon. […]
Majid Jordan’s dream is to make an album that’s unskippable. It’s not so much about the quality of each individual song—although of course they strive for front-to-back bangers. But what they’re really going for is a journey. A narrative. Something whole. These guys want to make an album so coherent, so self-contained, that it demands […]
Norman Powell has every right to be mad, upset, disappointed. The abrupt coronavirus-prompted suspension of the 2019-20 NBA season has put the Raptors guard’s career-year on hold. In his fifth season, Powell was averaging 16.4 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals—all career-highs—while shooting 39.8 percent from three-point range and 50.2 percent from the field overall. He […]

His bio now reads, “Why everybody callin me a snitch? I’m missing something …?” Eagle-eyed fans will notice that the depiction of 6ix9ine is […]
After appearing in March’s edition of Best New Artists following the release of his debut single “Switched Up,” Oliver Malcolm returns to showcase his eclectic style in the more brooding “Helen.” With its deep bassline and bluesy melodies alchemizing jazz and pop influences, he crafts an almost tangible atmosphere of melancholy as pleas to a woman […]
In the ten-plus years that he’s been in the game, East London rapper Guvna B‘s work-rate hasn’t paused for one second, releasing a staggering nine full-length albums in this time. The ninth and latest addition to his expansive catalogue is the recently released album Everywhere + Nowhere, a stunningly thoughtful examination of grief and loss that also aims […]
Like everyone, Tyrann Mathieu is adjusting to a new normal. He’s practicing social distancing, staying in the house, and trying to get ready to play football in the Fall. With so much uncertainity and sports on hold for the foreseable future, this new normale is hitting everyone, including professional athletes. We had the opportunity to […]
All everyone wants to talk to Chris Godwin about these days is his number. Which is understandable since the only other player in football whose brand is more synonymous with the No. 12 than the Buccaneers’ All-Pro wide out is the living legend that will be his quarterback next season.
