The New York Times pop music team covers the full spectrum: indie rock, hip-hop, country, pure pop, Latin trap, Afrobeats and much more. But there are always questions, artists and trends left unaddressed, and Popcast listeners are excited to ask us about them.
This week’s Popcast is the first of a two-episode listener mailbag.
Topics covered: the recent Taylor Swift documentary “Miss Americana,” Katy Perry’s career arc, press coverage of the troubled band Pinegrove, the bedroom pop singer Clairo, the Scottish pop arriviste Lewis Capaldi, the different expectations saddled upon male and female pop stars, and whether the idea of the comeback album has been all but eradicated in the age of instant-gratification streaming.
Guests:
Joe Coscarelli, pop music reporter
Caryn Ganz, pop music editor
