Miki Hellerbach is taking artists to parts known. I spoke with my good friend @mikimontebello about 'The Spot,' his soon-to-release food travel and hip-hop interview show.

I got a sneak peek at the pilot featuring @AshaImuno and his "spot" Harry's Cafe in Moreno Valley CA 📖👇🏼

I profiled @BNYX for @latimes. His industrial techno meets hip hop meets metal bass lines fusion producer compilation album, Genesis FM, arrives Friday #samedayasdrake. He’s had a wild ride to get here.

Me on the pen & interview

For my @grailed debut, I spoke to Thundercat for a 2nd time about the intersection of his music and style, how he and Willow are like Juno & Michael Cera’s character, how Stanley Clarke is the most stylist bassist, and much more

Being in the actual LA Times mf newspaper was a real career peak this year but here’s everything I did I’m proud of on the freelance journo grind 🧵

[Miki @mikimontebello]

A fire breathing quest for sonic innovation,
a prism of UK soul, thump, and shimmer, a rock anthem about a heart trying to hold on, a grey area’d guitar-filled plea, a swampy and funky r&b jam session, a melancholy declaration of survival…

Best of ‘25
