People Are Making Hilarious Electoral Maps Based On Ludacris, Sufjan Stevens, And More

The final votes are being cast in the 2020 presidential election today, and whoever comes away with 270 electoral college votes will spend the next four years in the White House. This data is often usefully presented in electoral maps, which show what states have given electoral votes to which candidate. While those numbers aren’t rolling in just yet, sites like 270towin.com have maps based on projections. That site and others also have tools that allow users to create their own electoral maps, and in recent days, music fans have been having fun with those.

For example, somebody made an electoral map that shows how the election would shake out if Biden won all the states containing area codes where Ludacris claimed to have hoes in his classic song “Area Codes,” and Biden wins by a landslide. Meanwhile, the election would be much closer if Biden won every state that gets mentioned in a Red Hot Chili Peppers song, as another map indicates. Then there’s “The Sufjan,” which indicates a candidate would lose badly if they only got votes from states Sufjan Stevens has made albums about (Michigan and Illinois).

Ringo Starr came up with his own map, suggesting that he would get every single electoral vote. Don’t tell that to at least one Britney Spears fan, though, who thinks the pop star has this one in the bag.

Check out those maps and others above and below.

“Boom” by Chandra explodes with energy and in-depth storytelling

Chandra

“Boom” is Chandra’s second single of 2026, and it’s the kind of moment when emotion, energy, and cosmic interest collapse into each other, delivering you a pop-rock sensation that is at once intimate and grand.

“Boom” settles into a steady sequence with the driven bass of Chris Wong and lead-guitar fireworks from Mike Paul. The production plays back-and-forth, the verses are cool and collected, and in the choruses, everything bursts into high, emotional sounds. The lead singer, Chandra Nair, sings in a way that feels quite personal yet speaks to everyone. He sings with a sense of wonder that matches the song’s central idea of soulmates wandering through an infinite cosmos to meet. It has a spiritual nature underneath all that, a sense of fate wrapped in heavy metaphor.

“Boom” is a song you think about and sing along to. The band leans into celestial and elemental imagery, contributing to a resonance. Chandra continues to make a name for themselves in contemporary pop-rock by balancing self-reflection with energy. Beyond being a song you want to hear, it demands you feel it, and the echo lingers well.

Reigns and Waives craft a tender moment with “Closer Than Your Shadow” music video

Reigns

“Closer Than Your Shadow” is a pop song and music video by Reigns and Waives that sounds like a promise quietly made. The song serves as a timely reminder that we are never necessarily alone, no matter how powerless and vulnerable we may feel. It is predicated on unconditional presence and emotional safety.

Originally a soul ballad, the song gradually morphed into an overproduced pop record with enduring depth. The production allows the emotion to come through, creating a warm, immersive atmosphere that complements the song’s grounding, comforting theme. Reigns and Waives strike a terrific balance of openness and strength in their voices. When they sing their lines, it sounds like they are talking straight to you in a time when you need to hear that. It sounds honest, and becomes something so human that you can really empathize with it.

“Closer Than Your Shadow” is about a connection that withstands the heaviness. It captures that quiet moment of falling apart and lovingly pulls it back together with understanding. With this release, Reigns and Waives not only demonstrate how well they complement each other as artists but also how effortlessly they transform complex emotions into something universally relatable.
