"comment": "About this track, \"it's got a poetic energy to it as Little Simz describes how contrasting love and fear and are. Without love, fear envelopes us. But when love is present, we feel 'Free', and fear evaporates. She also accurately details what each feeling does to us. 'I think the key is being honest and being yourself / I think love is understanding that people can change,' she says for example on the first verse.\"\n\nhttps://www.hotnewhiphop.com/897706-little-simz-free-stream", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3631600, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3631600/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-20T18:23:33-07:00", "show": 66232, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66232/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3631599, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3631599/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-20T18:17:07-07:00", "show": 66232, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66232/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn720904.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-6f97047e-ab25-4ca7-8b20-ee5099e5890c/mbid-6f97047e-ab25-4ca7-8b20-ee5099e5890c-44641283075_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn720904.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-6f97047e-ab25-4ca7-8b20-ee5099e5890c/mbid-6f97047e-ab25-4ca7-8b20-ee5099e5890c-44641283075_thumb250.jpg", "song": "House of I", "track_id": "027f49f7-7c54-4a09-ba94-f2cac63c6ac1", "recording_id": "07d27174-e307-4c14-872a-ae9ac6db6a68", "artist": "The Afghan Whigs", "artist_ids": [ "2feb192c-2363-46d6-b476-1c88a25cb294" ], "album": "House of I", "release_id": "6f97047e-ab25-4ca7-8b20-ee5099e5890c", "release_group_id": "667b3cc7-7a9d-4c21-a06c-2eda2eb8929b", "labels": [ "BMG" ], "label_ids": [ "82ef9b02-7b42-49fe-a6bc-0d8ba816d72f" ], "release_date": "2026-03-19", "rotation_status": "Medium", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "The Afghan Whigs will play Seattle's Showbox on Sunday, May 17th, and SF's Fillmore on Tuesday, May 19th. \n\nHere's a complete list of their tour dates: https://theafghanwhigs.com/tour/\n--\n“House of I” marks the first new Afghan Whigs material to follow their 2022 album, How Do You Burn? “Laid this one down in New Orleans last summer,” says frontman Greg Dulli in a statement. “Was looking for an up tempo banger and feel like we found one here.”", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3631598, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3631598/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-20T18:13:41-07:00", "show": 66232, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66232/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn721601.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-9cf3842c-136e-4039-aa86-4a2931c15a88/mbid-9cf3842c-136e-4039-aa86-4a2931c15a88-41178741189_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn721601.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-9cf3842c-136e-4039-aa86-4a2931c15a88/mbid-9cf3842c-136e-4039-aa86-4a2931c15a88-41178741189_thumb250.jpg", "song": "River", "track_id": "18b0c02f-c0f8-421d-8f0a-f02157c0fd7b", "recording_id": "22f7e137-83ae-4d88-9d31-1632dcacd101", "artist": "Suzzallo", "artist_ids": [ "49d81580-762a-4c60-8c57-c1fe9f3c9485" ], "album": "The Quiet Year", "release_id": "9cf3842c-136e-4039-aa86-4a2931c15a88", "release_group_id": "e8a25d28-66c7-415a-a741-35b4cac34733", "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2025-05-02", "rotation_status": "Library", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Suzzallo is a new Seattle based rock band fronted by Rocky Votolato.
