A Proposed Collaboration Between Two Rappers

Now hear me out on this one. Denzel Curry is pretty big right? That album with Kenny Beats was absolutely tight, hence why some of the tunes are on our rotation at WIDR right now! When I was texting my friend about that album, I mistakenly said Kenny Beats collaborated with Milo. However, it was Kenny Segal who collaborated with Milo on the 2015’s So the Flies Don’t Come. Then a lightbulb came in my head. Milo has been going under the new moniker of R.A.P Ferreira and release

A Modern Day Bossa Nova Genius

To be fair, potsu does not write strictly in a Bossa nova style, but for the sake of this article, let’s pretend EVERY song he does is in that style (or some underlying form of jazz and soul alright? Great). Potsu is a producer from California with a certain knack for the arts of the lo-fi beats that all the hip kids and kittens are listening to these days. However, instead of just strictly sampling all of his production elements, this dude straight up PLAYS the instruments i

They made us sign a death contract before accessing GoWMU (which is incredibly easy to get around, lmaooo), and they even did a dry run by blaming those aviation students for meeting together (in a group smaller than a full class). At the funeral of a 19-year-old freshman wh

This is a playlist of 10 songs that have been released this spring and summer by artists in the goth, post-punk, dark wave genres.

To get the full experience, I recommend listening straight through 😊 Stay tuned for a part 2 of songs released over the summer! Enjoy! Link to the playlist here. -DJ SHADOWPLAY 1. Desola

Death by Paper Blood: WMU Admins Should Receive What They Create

Oh Christ. Where to begin… I guess I’ll start by first saying that it gives me very little pleasure to write this. I don’t enjoy writing about death or spilled blood, but unfortunately it seems our administration needs a reminder. If they wanna go in-person this semester, they’re gonna have to get used to the word “death”, and they’re gonna have to get comfy and cozy with it. So anyway. I think we can make the reasonable assumption that our administration is either pretending
