Le1f

Somewhere in my Drafts folder I have a half-written essay about how I hold gay male musicians up to a higher standard than everyone else and therefore never actually like any of them. That might be why I’ve always been ambivalent about New York rapper Le1f, despite all his critical and (relative) popular acclaim. That, or maybe it’s just that some club music doesn’t translate that well when you’re not surrounded by go-go boys. In any event, fellow New Yorker Junglepussy is opening, and she’s great. Her recent Pregnant With Success album is super fun, lewd in all the best ways and really funny, too.
