When Yachty Met CartiThe FADER2017-03-21 | Between their sets at the FADER FORT in Austin in March, emerging gentleman Lil Yachty and Playboi Carti sat down for a heart-to-heart. They talked about the old tweets that haunt them, choosing weed or “substantial” health, and why Carti’s tape still isn’t out. http://www.thefader.com/2017/03/21/lil-yachty-playboi-carti-interview-video-fader-fort
Our featured artist, Orion Sun, is a forward-thinking alt-R&B artist who proudly reflects the communities that shaped her — Philadelphia, South Jersey, Los Angeles — while looking further out into the universe. Her live performance of “Sweet,” from her new album 'Orion', is enveloped by images of outer space, awe-inspiring celestial projections transforming a studio into a limitless environment. The song itself is colored by a combination of NASA recordings and Earthly tones: rustling leaves, crashing ocean waves, distant wildlife calls. It’s an immersive experience that blurs the lines between Earth and the cosmos.

Charli XCX started it, but it doesn’t have to be pop music — it’s a state of mind more than a sound. Alex Robert Ross is joined by Brat experts Sandra Song, Hannah Sung, and Vivian Medithi to look at what the brat aesthetic meant this summer and how music responded. Then there are tracks from Sexyy Red, Rada, skaiwater, and Charli.
