If you couldn’t tell by the constant music references in our articles, we at the Antidote, are in love with music. In the summer of 2011, our love of music brought us down to Manchester, Tennessee for one of the greatest music festivals in the world. Bonnaroo, a four-day banger with multiple stages featuring your favourite artists across a 700-acre farm, was everything you could ask for in a music festival.
Solange, always the more interesting Knowles, as an individual and sonically, decided to fly to Africa, hired a bunch of Sapeurs (Dandies who dance in short), and made one killer video. The music is exactly what should be heard this fall, but than again, that shouldn’t be a surprise since Blood Orange is involved in production.

Check out Sky Ferreira’s latest promo for “Everything is Embarrassing,” a sexy clip of the gorgeous singer/model posing and singing around the city in her grunge-meets-madonna style. The song was written by Ariel Rechtshaid and Blood Orange‘s Dev Hynes, so naturally it’s dreamy and dark. Expect more of the same from her upcoming Ghost EP, out October 16th.
