Presidential campaigns work carefully to craft an image that represents their candidate, and what better way than to have a cultivated playlist with a few core songs to play during rallies and TV advertisements?
Uncertainty has certainly become the norm, and while it’s frustrating we can't gather as a community in the same ways that we used to, it's songs like “Rank & File” that remind me how crucially important music is in making sense of the world.
Of course last week was a joke, if you didn’t catch it. Basketball in the United States of America indeed has a rich history and an enormous talent pool. To make up for my mockery of it, let’s stay home today.
Is going No. 1 on the U.S. charts something artists should strive for when making music? The short answer is no. This damages the intent and quality of music and the relationship between an artist and their fans.
Every sad pop banger that takes itself seriously culminates in collapse. The restrained verse-chorus-verse-chorus decorum must break into a bridge of absolute desolation. The artist can no longer channel the emotions through clean precision; the fabric of the song tears in the same way you rip off a Band-Aid. It becomes a sort of glorious, self-gratifying mess.
Dear J: How can I bring up to my crush that I have feelings for her?
I’m tired of being mad at the state of the world. But I am absolutely furious that I’m still being told that the only way to make progress is to replace anger with politeness and respect.

The Los Angeles Lakers walked away with the 2020 NBA championship, but let's take a look at the winners and losers of the NBA playoffs in the Bubble.

In the wake of the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, Brown drove 15 hours to Atlanta, Ga. in order to lead peaceful protests.
The increased rate of No. 1 debuts can be attributed to the decline of the physical sales era that came with the prevalence of streaming services. As a result, debuting at No. 1 no longer holds the same merit as it did back in the 1990s when the first few top debuts occurred.
Baseball in 2020 was tainted — that is, until the World Series.
It is extremely easy to want to return to the worldview a lot of us had prior to Trump’s presidency, a time that we now call "normal." I want to caution against this wishful thinking. It does us no good to long for the way things felt before Trump moved our Earth.
Just as the jester uses his inherent silliness to make fun of the king, so does Sacha Baron Cohen to reveal the absurdity of the American philosophy toward COVID-19. Borat, the alter ego Cohen has become synonymous with, has proven with his second official outing that the character’s original film was not just lighting in a bottle.
