Earlier this year, the Tallaght rapper Curtisy released the debut album What Was The Question? one of the finest Irish rap albums, nay, Irish albums of the year.

With a Deluxe version of the album out now, I spoke to Gavin Curtis aka Curtisy about starting out rapping in 2021 and meeting Ahmed, With Love and making their first song 'Men On A Mission' in 2022 with Rory Sweeney. Curtisy has a prolific output, and we discuss his many collaborators (Ahmed, With Love makes a brief appearance too), valuing vulnerability and authenticity in your music and discuss the Irish music he loves including music from Sloucho, Lil Skag, EFÉ, Bricknasty, Rory Sweeney / Carlos Danger and of course, Ahmed, Wit...

Kendrick's GNX victory lap, Drake's lawsuits & November favourites (Patreon Preview)

Kendrick's GNX victory lap, Drake's lawsuits & November favourites (Patreon Preview)

The Best of the Month episode is now Patreon-only. Public subscribers get the first 25 minutes or so. Episode 270 is partly a review of our favourite music of the month, and partly a chat about what's happening with Kendrick (new album) and Drake (lawsuits lol) in November. Andrea tells us why Drake is suing UMG, the label both him and Kendrick are on, and why he is also suing the label for defamation for things said in a rap beef with Lamar (you couldn't make it up) . Then we review Kendrick's new surprise album GNX, with its West Coast focus and hyphy vibe adding up to a victory lap for the rapper. After our recent deep dive into his seminal album, it's the return of Andrea’s Cool Big Guy Father John Misty and his new album Mahashmashana who as we found out is on the same release schedule as K.Dot. Andrea reviews the album and we talk an endorsement from Cher? Then it's recommendation corner with music from Bolis Pupul, Ahmed, With Love., Oisin Leech, single men in their twenties and the Doechii & Tyler, The Creator performance at Camp Flog Gnaw.

Other Voices Dingle special with Junior Brother & Silverbacks

Other Voices Dingle special with Junior Brother & Silverbacks

Podcast 269 is all about the 23rd edition of Other Voices in Dingle and some of the acts playing the Jameson Music Trail from November 29th to December 1st. The Jameson Music Trail will present 100 live sets from dozens of Irish artists we love, with many acts playing twice in the town’s 16 venues, including a Jameson Connects stage at The Dingle Bridge House for the first time. For this episode, I spoke to Kerry musician and OV regular Junior Brother about playing in Dingle, recording his soon-to-be-released third album with John "Spud" Murphy, and playing with The Pogues. Then we chat to Juno King, events producer with the OV family, literally in that her dad Philip started the show 23 years go and Juno along with triplet sisters Molly and Ellen grew up in and around the show. Juno talks to us about the limitations and magic of putting on the festival every year and what's exciting her this year on the lineup. Then, we beam in Dan and Paul from Silverbacks, the indie-rock band who have just released their third album Easy Being A Winner, and we discuss making the album with GIlla Band's Dan Fox, what success looks like for the band and what they're looking forward at Other Voices this year.
