Rusowsky: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 5 Streams • 1 year ago

Anamaria Sayre | July 22, 2025
Spanish producer and pianist Rusowsky has built a career, thus far, on making other people's authenticity shine. This year, he released his debut album, DAISY, and took a stab at shifting the spotlight on his own artistry. And, in this Tiny Desk performance, Rusowsky's soul is revealed for the first time in full force.

Ever the producer, DAISY is intentional — beautifully orchestrated and aware of its own ability to manipulate. With all kinds of crashing sounds and fun synths, Rusowsky coats every song with carefully laid diversions. While artistic and bright, the studio album keeps his voice partially hidden with effects.

At the Desk, the arrangements are stunning and well thought out, clearly attributable to his practice. His guard is down and his producer inclinations are backseat to his most raw and intimate tools: his piano and his voice. That voice quakes in moments, richly shines in others, but is consistently breathtaking in how much emotion it evokes. Rusowsky's truth is on full display and his sound has never felt so effervescent.

Drink Champs (N.O.R.E. & DJ EFN) on Joe Budden & Pusha T's Pharrell-Drake rant | Fat Jo Hotney 10 Streams • 1 year ago

The hip hop podcast crossover we've all been waiting for: N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN, the co-hosts of Drink Champs, join Fat Joe and Jadakiss for a legendary episode of Joe and Jada. They discuss the evolution of podcasting in hip hop culture, DMX's memorable Drink Champs episode, N.O.R.E. saying that Joe Budden, Million Dollaz Worth of Game, and Drink Champs are the only three rap podcasts that matter, their spinoff projects Run Champs and Smoke Champs, and Pusha T calling up N.O.R.E. to rant about Pharrell's answer to a question about him and Drake. The episode predictably goes off the rails with hilarious stories about N.O.R.E. saving Joe's life in Germany, Jadakiss getting pressed by TSA, Joe discovering a young Pitbull in Miami, and N.O.R.E.'s early adoption of reggaeton with Daddy Yankee.
