I took inspiration from the somewhat schizophrenic yet entertaining behavior of a few cats I've owned who purr for attention and then sink their teeth into you without reason or warning.

I want to strongly discern that Kenny is not only a skilled multi-disciplinary musician, but someone I see as a generational talent...
No matter what type of art you produce, you can learn from the past, and there may be aesthetics you cannot reproduce on modern digital software...
I love going into sets, not knowing what to expect, and being positively impressed by a performing artist. Smino is absolutely someone I would see again...
I think it's just really hard to find a band name. I feel like a connection to it. It just kind of was intuitive...
I expected nothing short of perfection when witnessing a Thundercat live set, and that was what I ultimately received...
Center stage were several instruments, including guitars, keyboards, synths, sequencers, and much more. Seamlessly, FKJ flowed between all of these inputs, performing in a unique/multi-faceted set.
It was amazing to witness not only how skilled of a vocalist Masego was, but also his talents as a dancer and entertainer.
Their visual imagery on album art is some of my favourite in the underground scene, with 'Shrines' depicting an NYPD officer grappling down the side of a building in Harlem looking into a window at a 425-pound tiger...

the release of art brings with it the release of emotions entangling with & informing the work. our pain screams at us...

Throughout the album, different subjects are tackled such as the spirit of competition, industrialization, the destruction of our ecosystems etc...

The intro to the set was one of my favorites I've ever seen and it is going to stick with me for months I am sure.

This was one of Lil Tjay's first performances following his recovery from being shot seven times in an attempted robbery & his live show didn't disappoint...

My spiritual practice and my musical practice are intertwined at this point. It’s completely natural for me to be an artist merged with my spiritual inner world, but I’m just now attempting to communicate publicly about it...

Jokes aside; the name "Lobsterfight" unfortunately has no actual meaning or interesting place of origin I'd have to admit. I came up with it randomly during my criminology class...
