As a music enthusiast and someone who values the power of design in shaping societal norms, I find PlayThatBoiZay’s new album, “VIP,” particularly intriguing. His experiences and the insights he gained from ‘The Black Experience in Design’ resonate deeply with me. The idea that design is a form of power, capable of determining the order of things, is a concept I wholeheartedly agree with. It’s fascinating to see this perspective reflected in his music.

Zedd x Remi Wolf – “Lucky”
As a dedicated fan, I’m thrilled to share that Zedd has collaborated with Remi Wolf on their latest hit single titled “Lucky,” a track that gracefully adorns his upcoming album Telos, set for release on August 30. In his own words, Zedd expresses, “Lucky wouldn’t have been possible without Remi.” Five years ago, Remi penned the first verse and chorus, initially with no plans to stay involved. However, this year, I invited Remi to the studio to listen to my album Telos, which sparked a change of heart in her, leading her to decide to remain on the song. Together, we worked on the second verse, and it breathed life into the track – no one else could deliver those lines with the same captivating essence as Remi does.
