Posted: 18 Jan 2017 07:40 AM PST NPR Music's Tiny Desk Concert series has hosted over 600 concerts in our office. We've had acts like Anderson .Paak, Wilco, John Legend, Hozier, Big Thief, Chick Corea & Gary Burton, The National and Iron & Wine. We've hosted the Tiny Desk Contest once a year since 2015 to find an undiscovered artist to perform in the series. Our first winner, Fantastic Negrito, has since been nominated for a Grammy and played on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and at venues like Madison Square Garden. Last year's winner, Gaelynn Lea, has since embarked on international tours and played venues like Christ Church and the Kennedy Center. We just opened submissions up last Friday, and I thought I'd see if anyone here was interested in entering. The contest is open to all genres, and we want to hear musicians from all over the states. Following the concert, the winner will go on a U.S. tour with NPR Music and Lagunitas. You can enter anytime between Jan. 13 and 11:59pmET on Jan. 29, 2017. Here's how you enter:
There are just a few requirements:
Every year, we have one winner. But this Contest is about much more than that. It's about building a community of musicians across the states, and shining a light even on the musicians who don't win by showcasing their videos on our site, our blog, our newsletter and even All Songs Considered. Even some entrants who didn't win have ended up at the Tiny Desk – just ask River Whyless, Valley Queen and Deqn Sue. We'd love for you all to join us this year. If you have any questions, you can comment here or email us. Don't post your videos here though — if you submit them through the Tiny Desk Contest site, we'll watch them all. Literally, every single one. Thanks so much, and happy music-making!

r/hiphopheads Essential Album of the Week #77: Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggystyle Posted: 18 Jan 2017 09:13 AM PST Welcome to the new and improved Essential Album of the Week discussion thread! Every Wednesday we will discuss an album from our Essential Albums list Last Week: Mac Mall - Illegal Business? This Week: Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggystyle Stream/Purchase Songs/Singles Background/Description (courtesy of allmusic.com) If Snoop Dogg's debut, Doggystyle, doesn't seem like a debut, it's because in many ways it's not. Snoop had already debuted as a featured rapper on Dr. Dre's 1992 album, The Chronic, rapping on half of the 16 tracks, including all the hit singles, so it wasn't like he was an unknown force when Doggystyle was released in late 1993. If anything, he was the biggest star in hip-hop, with legions of fans anxiously awaiting new material, and they were the ones who snapped up the album, making it the first debut album to enter the Billboard charts at number one. It wasn't like they were buying an unknown quantity. They knew that the album would essentially be the de facto sequel to The Chronic, providing another round of P-Funk-inspired grooves and languid gangsta and ganja tales, just like Dre's album. Which is exactly what Doggystyle is -- a continuation of The Chronic, with the same production, same aesthetic and themes, and same reliance on guest rappers. The miracle is, it's as good as that record. There are two keys to its success, one belonging to Dre, the other to Snoop. Dre realized that it wasn't time to push the limits of G-funk, and instead decided to deepen it musically, creating easy-rolling productions that have more layers than they appear. They're laid-back funky, continuing to resonate after many listens, but their greatest strength is that they never overshadow the laconic drawl of Snoop, who confirms that he's one of hip-hop's greatest vocal stylists with this record. Other gangsta rappers were all about aggression and anger -- even Dre, as a rapper, is as blunt as a thug -- but Snoop takes his time, playing with the flow of his words, giving his rhymes a nearly melodic eloquence. Compare his delivery to many guest rappers here: Nate Dogg, Kurupt, and Dat Nigga Daz are all good rappers, but they're good in a conventional sense, where Snoop is something special, with unpredictable turns of phrase, evocative imagery, and a distinctive, addictive flow. If Doggystyle doesn't surprise or offer anything that wasn't already on The Chronic, it nevertheless is the best showcase for Snoop's prodigious talents, not just because he's given the room to run wild, but because he knows what to do with that freedom and Dre presents it all with imagination and a narrative thrust. If it doesn't have the shock of the new, the way that The Chronic did, so be it: Over the years, the pervasive influence of that record and its countless ripoffs has dulled its innovations, so it doesn't have the shock of the new either. Now, Doggystyle and The Chronic stand proudly together as the twin pinnacles of West Coast G-funk hip-hop of the early '90s. Guidelines This is an open thread for you to share your thoughts on the album. Avoid vague statements of praise or criticism. This is your chance to practice being a critic. It's fine for you to drop by just to say you love the album, but let's try and step it up a bit!!! How has this album affected hip-hop? WHY do you like this tape? What are the best tracks? Do you think it deserves the praise it gets? Is it the first time you've listened to it? What's your first impression? Have you listened to the artist before? Explain why you like it or why you don't. DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT BEING LATE !!!! Discussion throughout the week is encouraged. Next week's EAOTW will be Nas - Illmatic [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
