The UP Mag

artists are people driven by the tension between the desire to communicate and the desire to hide

the radio plays the same 8 songs in rotation. Every hour, EVERY DAY, EVERY WEEK, EVERY YEAR. Y’all barely give play to any of these hungry artists. In 2019 we need to stop supporting these radio stations and start supporting local blogs, podcasts, shows etc.
