Netflix deal or no, Vince Staples will tell the hell out of a story. For those keeping track, it may feel like his new album, Cry Baby, is finally making good on his assertion from two albums ago that he’d be leaving his traumatic past and complex Long Beach neighborhood behind him, material-wise.

The year is 1997. It’s the quarter-finals of the top-division Mexican soccer league (today known as BBVA Liga MX).

One hates to prioritize one artform over another… really, one does. But after seeing Ariana Grande‘s opening show on her “Eternal Sunshine Tour” at the Oakland Arena Saturday night, it is tempting to want to send the multi-hyphenate talent a message, if you had the means to get one through, and it would go something like this: Dear Ariana… The world needs this, more than it needs “Focker In-Law 2.” Not that it will necessarily come down to a choice, after all is said and sung and gone. But Grande did send a panic into her fandom late last year…
