  • Frustrating New Formalt

    I used to love Rolling Stone Now podcast. I have nothing against the Nashville stuff but it has now been forced in my feed with rebranded All Access. A real bummer. I don’t listen to this podcast like I used to because I have to spend more time skipping content I don’t want and did not subscribe to. Very disappointed and may need to find another way to get this type of content.

    I find myself wanting to listen to every episode even of the artist that I don’t really have a lot of familiarity with. The interviewer is excellent and gives the guest enough space to express what they want to say without push pushing on to the next topic or question. Thanks to all will make this possible.

  • What a mess— no respect for D’Angelo

    This used to be a pretty good podcast up until the past couple of years, with a nice mix of interviews and analysis on classic rock, modern pop, R&B, rap and country, and even a dash of indie music and electronic.

    All of a sudden, it randomly converted to an all-country format for half the year. Even with the recent restoration of a few non-country themed episodes, the feed has gotten so country heavy that the podcast didn’t even bother to mark the death of D’Angelo— the most universally loved... more

Is Paul Cauthen Country’s Reformed Rebel?

Ne-Yo Opens Up About His Country Debut
Q: What prompted Ne-Yo to pursue country music and move to Nashville?
He felt a need to reconnect with real emotion and storytelling, realizing that country offered a space for vulnerability that wasn't as accessible in R&B or pop; it was about making music that felt true to him rather than chasing a trend.

Tyson Ritter: The Rolling Stone Studio Live at SXSW
Q: What did you learn from the long break between albums and that festival moment in 2022?
