John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant’s Memory, Power to the People: The Ultimate Collection
Produced by Sean Ono Lennon, this nine-CD, three-Blu-ray set ties together his parents’ raw, grimy Some Time in New York City LP with a pair of shows at Madison Square Garden.

Princess Nokia, Girls
With her fourth album of punky and provocative raps, the Nuyorican artist is once again reimagining hip-hop as a dangerous place to be.

Blawan, SickElixir

The Happy Valley music festival once again stands out during festival season by embracing its natural surroundings and simply enlisting musicians who fit the scene.

It was a festival filled with dualities: that Charles Bradley is not a lone eagle, that J Mascis can blow out an amp and shred on acoustic within a matter of hours, that the pleasant Pacific Northwest can still get really freakin’ hot.
