The world’s most sensitive rapper got cold-cocked by the mogul with the softest name in the game.
The world’s most sensitive rapper got cold-cocked by the mogul with the softest name in the game.
Last Wednesday night, we trotted down the Miami Beach Boardwalk past Miley Cyrus wailing away with Wayne Coyne for a small crowd of the most aggressive adults ever to elbow their way past doormen and cops. We weren’t interested in actually getting trampled to see Hannah Montana cover the Beatles…
The palace got ratchet. Over the weekend, Basel Castle packed a couple thousand party people (Scandinavian spitter Yung Lean, NYC shapeshifter Mykki Blanco, New Wave-y crew Future Islands, rap producer Mike Will Made It, some graffiti artists, even the chicken and the egg) into an actual castle in Wynwood. But…
Having Basel withdrawals? Good thing there’s a remedy for that… Even more music. Just check out Miami’s five best concerts this week, from 305 mayor Trick Daddy at The Stage to the rockin’ holiday tuneage of TSO at the BB&T to Usher’s sexy, smooth abs vibes at the AAA. See…
Khaotic is an Overtown rapper who collaborated with a Hungarian abstract artist named MSL for “Khaotic Killz Basel,” a mobile pop-up art performance.

Every arty party must come to an end. And so it goes… We have indeed reached the final day of Art Basel Miami Beach 2014. Of course, all that means is #ABMB closing parties and one last night of bar-hopping till 5 a.m., from SoBe to downtown to Wynwood. Just…
At 11:30 p.m., a gaunt, bespectacled Phil Collins walked on to the stage of the Fillmore Miami Beach, flanked by his ex-wife Orianne Collins-Mejjati and their young son, to tell the sold-out Little Dreams Gala crowd that he had to cancel his performance. It was to be Collins first concert…
With less than 48 hours left in Basel 2014… It’s about time to forsake sleep till sometime next week. We can certainly all agree there’s absolutely no reason to waste precious hours on unconsciousness when you could be arty partyin’. So drink lots of water. Ditch the depressants. Stick to…
James Blake Presented by III Points and Young Arts Young Arts Campus, Miami Friday, December 5, 2014 Better Than: Sunday mass. We’re not really a religious bunch. But last night, James Blake took us to church. The English artist brought heavenly chords and a voice like honey to his Florida…
Alright, so you weren’t Bangerz enough to score an invite to Miley Cyrus’ blunt and penis costume extravaganza at the Raleigh Hotel, and you’re a few bucks short of seeing Erykah Badu do her DJ thang at the BET Art Lounge… Yeah, chances are you’re feeling pretty bummed right now…
FKA Twigs With Clams Casino Presented by III Points and YoungArts YoungArts Campus, Miami Thursday, December 4, 2014 Better Than: Voguing alone in your room to the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. Ever wonder what it would be like if Trent Reznor and Siouxsie Sioux had a daughter who loved…
“Back in 2006, I had no band, no car, and a lot of free time,” says Miami musician Jose Flores. “So I was doing hundreds of home recordings. I always thought freestyle and Miami bass were these fun and lost genres. I noticed that the simpler, funny bass-heavy jams were…
After three days of arty partyin’… Your legs are jelly. Your ass is sore. Your ears are ringing. Your eyes are dry. And your head feels like Brion Gysin and William S. Burroughs’ Dream Machine at a South Beach foam party circa 1995. Congratulations! That’s what the #ABMB pros call…
Fat blunts. Penis costumes. A topless Amazonian disco diva. And the art-world elite. Last night, Miley Cyrus brought the hot mess to Art Basel Miami Beach week with a ratchet cabaret show at the Raleigh Hotel, as part of Jeffrey Deitch, Tommy Hilfiger, and V Magazine’s ultra-exclusive #ABMB kickoff bash…
“I never said I wanted to be the best rapper, that’s not my goal,” says André 3000. “I just want to connect with people.” The ATLian is nonetheless one of the most celebrated creative minds of his generation. His work with Big Boi in Southern rap duo Outkast has brought…
Don’t stop the arty party. You’ve done all the art fairs. You’ve endlessly chit-chatted sophisticated babes of both sexes. And you’ve sipped enough free champagne to keep your pee bubbly till New Year’s Eve. All that culture and glamor can be exhausting. But that’s no excuse for heading home (or…
Novy Græy is an enthusiastic young man, talented and spiritual. While emerging with Quarter Horses as an intricate, self-described “Gospel Noir” outfit, he’s also been the main driving force behind the technical and experimental project {in-boxes}.

As much as we love to brag about how sexy and posh we are, truth is, not everyone in the Magic City is VIP. But we all, however, have that one überly popular friend who gets invited to every single bash in the 305, which comes in pretty handy during…
Please don’t let us down. We begged. And pleaded. But sadly, Solange Knowles (AKA Beyoncé’s sis) is canceling her Art Basel Miami Beach week music series at Select Art Fair 2014. The Saint Records founder was supposed to be headlining and curating six nights of free Basel parties, starring label…
Take a shower. Pop a pill. Slip into another little black dress. For the truly dedicated Art Basel Miami Beach attendee… The arty party ends at dawn. The gallery-going begins before noon. And the #ABMB bashes resume as soon as last night’s hangover wears off. That leaves just hours to…
Telekinetic Walrus looks like a gang of interdimensional beings on a concert tour across space-time. This Miami band’s stellar live shows are a tripped-out electronic circus of operatic vocals, rhythmic tidal waves of bass, and uplifting sonic landscapes that weave their way around your chakra like a wireless connection to…
The German capital of Berlin still sets the tone for underground electronic dance music on the wider global scene.
