            "comment": "\"The sophomore album from London trio PVA is all about balance; light and dark, blurry and sharp, urgent and tranquil. Featuring synths both bright and sinister, angular guitars, driving percussion, and Ella Harris’s entrancing, deadpan vocals, No More Like This is an engrossing, essential listen that brilliantly fuses electropunk, trip-hop, and experimental soundscapes to reveal their ever-evolving vision,\" writes KEXP's Music Director Chris Sanley about PVA's new album.\n\nRead more new music reviews here: https://www.kexp.org/read/2026/2/9/new-music-reviews-29/",

            "comment": "This song finds Lamar rapping about self-esteem issues regarding the color of one's skin and the importance of loving all forms of black, no matter how light or dark. The chorus references the cruel discrimination the black Zulu tribe suffered in South Africa because of the color of their skin, during the country's racist apartheid policies.\n\nRapsody spits the third verse. She first met Lamar in 2011 when the Compton rapper was in her area on tour. She was in a recording studio and he came in to grab some beats from 9th Wonder. Later that year, Lamar recorded some rhymes for Rapsody's track \"Rock the Bells.\"\n\nProduced by Thundercat.\n\nhttps://www.kendricklamar.com/",
