There’s this awesome website called Rapgenius.com, which attempts to provide meanings in lyrics for every songs that’s at least semi – popular. It works like Wikipedia as most of the meanings are provided by fellow listeners offering their interpretation and then again like Wikipedia there are moderators who regulate the meanings. There are a bunch of big artists like Snoop Lion and A$AP Rocky who provide the meanings so you know it’s not just someone’s interpretation. I use it often to connect on a greater level with the music than merely it’s harmonious sounds.
NME – Started out as a magazine, it’s a music journalism publication in the United Kingdom, published weekly since March 1952. It provides music reviews and a bunch of lists which detail every type of music. Much more up to date than Billboard magazine.
Check out some new music – Listen to these artists called The Strokes. This is one of their most euphonious songs.
