We’re getting candid in our interview with Master Peace.
Master Peace is the artist moniker for London-based Peace Okezie who makes self-proclaimed “electroclash” music for dancing. Earlier this year Master Peace released his debut album and won an award for Ivor Novello’s Rising Star. With huge support slots for the likes of The Streets and Genesis Owusu under his belt, he’s following that up with another EP and a headline tour across the UK and EU this October.
We talk to Peace about how he accidentally started the wave of indie sleaze in the UK, how he has fought against the boxes people have tried to put him in order to make art that fully represents himself, and why ‘happiness and freedom’ are a core part of his philosophies as a human and an artist.

This week on Name 3 Songs…
⚡ Fangirl Nonsense: Pop music is SO back. Both Sabrina Carpenter and Addison Rae have release the most perfect pop songs. Sabrina is giving us sugar coated mellow drama while Addison is channeling Lana Del Rey and Britney Spears on “Diet Pepsi.”
⚡ We’re exploring how Charli XCX’s latest album brat became a cultural phenomenon that reached all the way to the presidential election. We first look at how brat. serves as a reflection of the current state of culture and society – the rise of indie sleaze and club culture, the reaction to Barbie summer (hello brat summer), the rebellion of what it means to be a 30 year old in today’s society. After diving into the cultural significance of the album itself, we dissect the branding of brat that propelled the message into mainstream culture. From the “brat wall” in New York City, to the text that instantly became a meme, to the aptly timed “Apple” + coconut tree mashup. Brat is a moment that will live on forever in pop culture history, and you just had to be there.

A replay of our 2021 episode with author and journalist Maria Sherman!
Throughout history, boy bands have been a massively lucrative enterprise for the music industry, thanks to their main demographic of teen girls. Join us to really learn about the importance of boy bands to pop culture and their dark history.
Heartthrob boy bands + adoring fangirls = big money! And this is where things get shady. Behind every successful boy band is a man with industry know-how (and sometimes even nefarious intentions.)
We’re joined by Maria Sherman, author of Larger Than Life: A History of Boy Bands, to explore the dark history of boy bands and the men who pull the strings – from Maurice Starr’s shady contracts with New Kids on the Block and New Edition to Lou Pearlman using Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC as the front of a Ponzi scheme. We also discuss their impact on pop culture which led to the rise of One Direction (thanks to Simon Cowell) and BTS (a la Big Hit Entertainment.)
All of this to say, are boy bands inherently sexist? And at the end of the day, do we even care?
Find Maria Sherman on Twitter and Instagram for fun boy band knowledge more!
