MC Lars has launched a Kickstarter for a vinyl pressing of The Graduate.
The record came out of a specific moment: early Myspace, the height of the RIAA lawsuits, cheap laptops, long van drives. I was making what I called “post-punk laptop rap” in bedrooms and studios from Oxford to Long Island to San Francisco, trying to connect literature, punk energy, and hip-hop in a way that felt natural.

The platform has launched what it is calling Transparency Tags — a system of disclosure labels that record labels and music distributors can begin applying to content delivered to Apple Music immediately, and will be required to use when delivering new content in future.
The new framework covers four key creative elements: Artwork, Track, Composition, and Music Video. The Artwork tag, applied at the album level, flags when AI has been used to generate a material portion of static or motion graphic artwork.
The Track tag — available at the track level only — is used when AI generates a material portion of a sound recording.
The Composition tag covers AI-generated lyrics or other compositional elements, while the Music Video tag applies to any visual content, whether bundled with albums or delivered as standalone.
