Holds up really well to this day, so amazing to see Harry reinvent himself like this and make what is undeniably the best music of his career.
Really looking forward to whatever is next 🙏

Good luck telling the people of Lincolnshire that their county flag pales in significance…
Reform controlled English councils will move at speed to resolve that the *only* flags permitted to be flown on or in its buildings will be the Union Jack and the St George’s flag.
No other flags will be permitted to be flown on its flag-poles, balconies, reception desks or council-chamber walls. 🇬🇧 🏴

Wow. New song & video by Fiona Apple coming out next week - May 7. Years of court watching. Thousands of hearings. She saw the devastating impact of pre-trial detention, especially on Black mothers.
Visit lethergohome.org for a sneak peek and to give for freedom.
A big shoutout to my journalism friends for pulling the all nighter to cover elections last night. Another evening of proof that the #LDReporter scheme is so essential to our democracy, but I am thankful for my new PR career this morning after a full night’s sleep 🤣🤣🤣🤣

#OnThisDay in 2008: Scott Steiner became the greatest mathematician of our time.
Just a remarkable album, full of the typical brutal honesty you’d expect from Fiona Apple. She stands among the giants of songwriting history as an all time great, in my eyes, and it’s because of records like this 💖
Today we celebrate the fifth anniversary of Fiona Apple’s fifth studio album, ‘Fetch The Bolt Cutters’!

Their songs are emotionally charged and socially alert, but that doesn’t mean “your head has to be in the absolute bin to listen to them” lmao.
Convinced people hear an acoustic guitar and pitched vocal harmonies and assume it’ll give them a mental health condition or something.

This idea that Radiohead are the most depressing band on planet earth because they don’t sing the wheels on the bus go round and round will never make sense to me.
They’ve got nine albums of material spanning a 30 year career, why must we pretend every single song is bleak?
Can appreciate how good The Smiths & Radiohead are but your head has to be in the absolute bin to listen to them on a daily basis

An evening of immaculate vibes with @GeordieGreep
If this really is The New Sound, then I’m all in. Amazing show, probably one of the best I’ve ever witnessed.

Fantastic line-up.
That Saturday could be the most impressive collection of names I’ve seen on a festival poster in my lifetime!
Here is the first Glastonbury Festival 2025 line-up poster. Many more acts and attractions still to be announced.

Fantastic film, so raw and emotive. Many films try to hone in accurately on the struggle of the human condition, but very few feel as real as this. There are times it genuinely feels like a documentary.

did the doctor from arrested development write this
Pope Francis, who has been diagnosed with pneumonia in both lungs, passed a "peaceful night", the Vatican has said, amid growing concerns over the 88-year-old's condition.

Should be a lock for people’s greatest rap albums of all time lists. One of the most influential and impactful albums ever made, and still sounds fresh and ahead of the curve over 20 years later.
“Just remember ALL CAPS when you spell the man name”
RIP MF DOOM 🕊️

This is the greatest 12 months an artist has had in modern music history, I’m convinced.
He didn’t just beat Drake in a public rap beef, he dethroned him in every way. More streams, more accolades, more recognition.
When all is said and done he goes down as hip hop’s GOAT.
Kendrick Lamar becomes the first rapper in HISTORY to surpass 95 MILLION monthly listeners on Spotify (95.1M) 🔥🏆
He enters the top five artists in the world, surpassing Bad Bunny.
