@dixie_chicks played by their own rules. No one⏤not the establishment, not a #producer, not a #politician⏤was going to strip them of the right to say (and sing) exactly what they wanted. Years before a political divide would rend their standing was bonafide #country superstars, they were making the kind of boundary-pushing country music that not only honored its roots but extended well across the aisle to pop.

Their landmark 1999 studio album, 'Fly,' their second major-label release, they displayed tremendous fearlessness and heart while maintaining a knack for melding bluegrass, blues, plaintive folk, honky tonk and outlaw. With today marking the 20th anniversary of the GRAMMY-wining album, we spoke to a slew of songwriters, including Silver, Annie Roboff and Troy Johnson, among others, on writing some of the most enduring classics of our time—view our story.

 #SaidaDahir has never gone back to #Somalia, her native country, which sits on the east side of #Africa. But she knows exactly why it is endearingly called the "Nation of Poets." Through spoken-word poetry, she examined her experiences growing up #Muslim, #female and #black in a predominantly white community in the U.S. 
One spoken-word performance even went viral, when Dahir spoke at the 2018 March Of Our Lives event in Salt Lake City. Those experiences make up her powerfully emotive spoken-word debut, 'The Walking Stereotype.' The album is a way to bring her message of #selflove to young #women who look just like her. 
View our story to learn more about her spoken-word debut, what her black-Muslim identity means to her, BTS and other #music she listens to, and more.

"Typically, the way we would do them is we would book eight-hour sessions, whereas rock bands — they would block out the studio and just have it set up for months and months. But black records, we'd have to come in and leave, and come in and leave, and then come back and leave, and come back. So I did David Bowie the same way 'cause that's the only way I knew how to do records — like black records." - @nilerodgers , GRAMMY-winning producer and #PandEWing member gives insight on producing David Bowie's album 'Let's Dance.'

In many ways, 'forevher' represents a #victory lap for @Shura, who, even as recently as a few years ago, wouldn't have felt comfortable using #samesex pronouns in her songs. But the "her" in "forevher" is quite purposeful, as is its Rodin-inspired blue imagery of two #women embracing. "I remember when I put out 'Nothing's Real'... In the pop sphere there really wasn't a #queer woman that I could think of, other than people who had also already been around for a while," Shura tells the #RecordingAcademy. "So, @TeganandSara, maybe you have @HayleyKiyoko as well. But now we have @gakkingprincess, we have lots of non-binary artists. The indie-pop world, it's just so much queerer than it was when I first put out a record. I don't feel like the only gay in the village anymore." 📲 View our story to read how @Shura further delve into the story behind her latest effort—which is co-produced with Joel Pott and features collaborations with @JagwarMa's Jona Ma, @Whitneyband's Will Miller and more—and why this feels like her "first record as an adult woman."

In August of '69, hundreds of thousands of people took over the small town of Bethel, #NY to hear the sounds and inspirational words from their favorite artists, including #JimiHendrix, Sly and the Family Stone, #JanisJoplin, and the #GratefulDead. Longtime music journalist, then an 18-year-old music fan, @mikegreenblatt was there. 
In his brand-new book, ‘ #Woodstock 50th Anniversary: Back to Yasgur's Farm,’ out in honor of the fest's 50th anniversary, Greenblatt features his own firsthand account, as well as a collection of submitted stories from both artists and attendees to recreate the experience that transpired a half-century ago—one that original promoter Michael Lang hasn't been able to truly replicate since. View our story to learn more about what it was really like to be at Woodstock and how we can apply the fest's activist mindset today.
