Black History Month 2021 is truly like no other. With Bobby Shmurda finally home, JoJo Siwa v. Dababy (2021), Lil Uzi Vert’s $24 million forehead diamond, and all the discourse around Lori Harvey, each day is a little more explosive than the last, but in the best way possible. To celebrate the culture, I made it my goal to listen to primarily black artists. I may have exhausted my Spotify with the hours I clocked, but here are the 5 albums that got me through Black History Month.

It’s the end of February: the most boring, cold, and all-around yucky month. The only thing to look forward to is Valentine's Day (which you may or may not be dreading) and the Super Bowl. Perhaps you like the Super Bowl, because you like sports, or perhaps you are like me, and love to judge the Halftime shows. As I watched The Weeknd's halftime show, I couldn’t help but wonder how the past Halftimes shows compare. So, I sat through as many halftime shows as I could stomach before I got bored. Here’s my personal ranking from worst to best:

Taylor Swift released a re-recording of her 2008 song “Love Story” on February 12th, ushering in a new musical era for the country-turned-pop-turned-alternative star. The single is the first of the re-recording. Along with the its release, Swift has revealed she will release a re-recording of the entire Fearless album as well as six unheard songs from the vault on April 9th.

Ariana Grande is the gift that keeps on giving and giving and giving. Ever since her sixth album positions came out on October 30th 2020, Ari has blessed us with her Netflix concert documentary "excuse me i love you", the "34+35" remix, music video with artists Doja Cat and Megan thee Stallion, and has teased four additional tracks that would appear on the deluxe version of the album.

In a conference hosted by the °1824 division at Universal Music Group, Alexander Glantz, better known as Alexander 23, talked about the message behind his sophomore EP “Oh No, Not Again!”, his journey to the top of the charts, and why he likes being bad at stuff.

Dear Cupid, all respect to you, your craft, and your round-the-year work, but please if we have to play “Nobody” by Mitski on repeat and view our latest heartbreak as if it’s the season finale to the worst teen drama ever to metaphorically find closure... we will LOSE it.

Anyways, since you ‘love love’ or whatever, here’s a couple songs and stories from moments where we could’ve used a lil more (but, we know, we know.. we’ll take that up with HR). We hope you enjoy (even though God knows we didn’t). Love, WMUC

Yes, we are a college radio station. Yes, we stan Chromatica. Of course we had to taste test Lady Gaga and Oreo’s latest (and first??) collaboration. THIS… is WMUC on Chromatica Oreos!!!

For this week’s edition of Punk Punk Goose, we start the morning with tunes from the legendary space rock band Hawkwind! For the most part, we showcase tracks that have lemmy-understudy Alan Davey. We also sat down and discussed various projects that Alan Davey has been involved with!
