On the final episode of the school year for Beats on the Bricks, hosts Alex and Max talk about their favorite music to listen to during summer. They discuss a variety of artists, including Childish Gambino, Paul Simon and Gus Dapperton.

On this week’s “Beats on the Bricks,” hosts Alex and Max talk about the wild, weird, seemingly random story of Lil Nas X’s country-trap megahit “Old Town Road,” including its rise on TikTok, its initial entry onto the charts and the new remix featuring Billy Ray Cyrus.

The two also talk about the tragic recent deaths of rapper and activist Nipsey Hussle and the members and touring manager of British indie pop duo Her’s.

In lighter news, Alex and Max talk about Billie Eilish’s new album, 'WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?', as well as fresh singles from Vampire Weekend and Mac DeMarco, both of whom are set to release albums in early May.

On this week’s “Beats on the Bricks,” hosts Alex and Max chat about some recent releases in music, including the two new Vampire Weekend songs, “Sunflower” and “Big Blue,” as well as new singles from Tame Impala and the Black Keys, both of which are returning from years-long hiatuses.

Alex and Max also discuss music they listened to over Ohio University’s recent spring break, including music from Daft Punk, Current Joys and Gregory Alan Isakov.

On this week’s episode, hosts Alex and Max discuss this year’s Grammys, including their opinions on big wins for Kacey Musgraves, Cardi B and Greta Van Fleet. They also question whether or not the award show is relevant or comprehensive in the age of streaming.

The hosts also discuss their favorite new releases, including singles from Rex Orange County and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard and albums from James Blake and Ariana Grande. They also touch on last weekend’s ACRN Emo Prom and the Feb. 8 show at The Union Bar & Grill that featured Water Witches, King Buu and Stems.

The hosts introduce the podcast, talk about some local shows and offer music recommendations.
