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

Getty Image Biden would easily take over the White House if he won all the states containing area codes where Ludacris claimed to have hoes. …

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.

Boorook creates a hip-hop anthem for change on “Fight For Your Rights”

Boorook

Boorook’s latest release, “Fight For Your Rights,” is both a song and a movement. The Indigenous people have a strong voice, and from the first beat, the song has a strong, urgent, and very human energy. “Fight For Your Rights” is an example of how conscious hip-hop can serve as art activism. The track is about unfair systems, and it’s clear that it supports the Black Lives Matter movement. Clarke’s performance is more than just a show, it’s a call to action that tells people to face hard truths and connect with the pulse of community and defiance.

Thomas Lorenzo’s live guitar adds an unexpected yet beautiful layer, giving the rhythm an emotional depth that makes it feel soulful. The track sounds real because it has real instruments and hip-hop beats. This shows how good Boorook is at mixing styles and still getting the message across.

People feel like they are part of a group when they listen to the song “Fight For Your Rights.” The lyrics are deep, and the music is good. It’s a song that makes people want to get together, think, and do something. Boorook doesn’t just play music; he makes people feel strong by turning every beat into a heartbeat for change.

Boorook’s new release reminds us that music can still be a powerful force for truth and change in a world where trends come and go. “Fight For Your Rights” is a call to action, an anthem, and proof that music can still bring us together, make us think, and motivate us.

Malammore unveils a new voice rising from portugal’s margins on new album “Aurora”

Capa_Malammore -

Malammore, whose real name is Sandro Feliciano, is a singer, songwriter, and producer from Lisbon, Portugal. “Aurora” is his first album. The album comes out on January 23 and tells the story of his life as a young Black man, his search for belonging, and his country’s cultural resistance. The lyrics talk about love, adoption, thoughts on humanity, and how the artist sees his role in the world. The concept for the album originated from a notebook containing poems, narratives, and my self-perception within this world. It’s a record of the Black experience in Portugal, of belonging and feeling alone, of love and loss.

Sandro, also known as Malammore, was born in 2005 and lived with the Portuguese State for two years until he was adopted in 2008, which was a big change in his life. One of the main ideas in Aurora is to turn the idea of a “black hole” into “the world’s white hole,” which shows a universe that erases identities. He challenges dominant narratives and changes how people see black bodies in society by filling it with the idea of blackness.

The album mixes hip-hop, rap, trap, and spoken word, which is not something that is usually done. Malammore gets the political tone of the project from people like Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Angela Davis, and Fela Kuti. No Icon (Rodrigo Fernandes) did the production, mixing, and mastering for the album at Lisbon Sound Society.
