Next week, the New York underground rap fixture Wiki will release his new album Ancient History. I have heard it, and it’s great. For now, you’ll mostly have to take my word for it, since Wiki’s not exactly inundating us with advance singles. Up until today, the only one he shared was “Park,” his warm…

C+C Music Factory, the ’90s music group responsible for classic hip-house tracks like “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)” and “Things That Make You Go Hmmm…,” have been back in the news lately for disreputable reasons. Last week, C+C were announced as part of the extremely ’90s-heavy initial lineup for Donald Trump’s Freedom 250 concert series, the Great American State Fair. While other acts dropped out, rapper Freedom Williams, who guested on some of C+C’s biggest hits, defended his involvement in a saucy seven-minute rant filmed while he was on the toilet, essentially arguing that he needs the money and a gig’s a gig. Williams acquired the legal rights to the C+C Music Factory trademark for live performances in 2003, and he controls the longstanding C+C Instagram account.
