In this week's Baltimore City Paper, I wrote a big feature about Kane Mayfield and his debut album, The Return Of Rap, which just came out. I've known Kane and followed his music for years now and it's great to hear him put out a record worthy of his talent and get a chance to tell his story.
Also wrote The Short List and a new BPM column with news about DJ Technics, TT The Artist, Rod Lee, and more.

I should note, by the way, that I started Government Names 10 years ago this week. It feels odd to say, but starting a blog really was a life-changing decision for me that has had a huge impact on the last decade of my life. Shout out to Dylan.

I wrote a few things in this week's Baltimore City Paper:
- An interview with Prodigy of Mobb Deep, who are performing at Baltimore Soundstage on Sunday and releasing their new album next week (funnily enough, last time Mobb Deep put out an album in 2006, I interview Havoc for The Hook-Up Magazine).
- A BPM dance music column with news about Say Wut, DJ Pierre, and the Club Mnemonic event this week at The Crown.
- The Short List, with a bunch of other good shows happening in Baltimore over the next week.

The Baltimore City Paper's annual Big Music Issue is out this week, and in addition to the many articles, it features the introduction of several new genre-specific columns of music news that will be regularly running in CP from now on. I am writing two of them: Rap Sheet, which is about hip-hop, and BPM, which is about dance and club music and DJ culture.
Also, as usual, I did this week's Short List of concert listing.
