One fall night in 1979, two best friends went to a small club in their hometown of Washington, DC, to see a band. The show was so extraordinary, the band so singular, that decades—and thousands of shows—later, even at “AARP age,” as one of them now puts it, they still talk about it. They were especially taken with the lead singer, a lanky, glamorous Frankenstein-esque character who, by the show’s conclusion, was up on the bar, crooning merrily as he punched through ceiling tiles while the club owner looked on and laughed. “I’ve never recovered from that show,” Henry Rollins recalls. “I’ve never gotten better. Ian and I talk every Sunday. We’ve been best friends for 52 years. We talk about that time we stood next to each other and watched the Cramps.” The Cramps were the brainchild of singer Lux Interior (Erick Lee Purkhiser) and guitarist Poison Ivy (Kristy Marlana Wallace), who met as art students in Sacramento in the early 1970s, when Ivy caught a ride with Lux and a friend while hitchhiking. They became partners in life and art for the next 37 years, and the only two continuous members of the band until Lux’s death in 2009. Poison Ivy withdrew from the public eye: no interviews, no reunion tours with a stand-in singer, no reissues of Cramps records. Even so, the band’s legend continued to grow, attracting new generations of fans. Earlier this year, Rollins and MacKaye began working with a small group on a secret project: reviving the Cramps’ own Vengeance Records and starting a new business, Cramps Inc. @anna.merlan reports at the link in our bio. 📸: David Corio/Redferns/Getty

Cardi B is pushing back against claims that her lighter complexion and Dominican heritage are the reasons behind her success. The Bronx rapper addressed colorism in a lengthy statement on X, saying she recognizes the prejudice exists but won’t allow her accomplishments to be reduced to her skin tone.⁠ ⁠ Cardi reflected on the criticism she faced early in her career, recalling how people focused on her appearance and called her a “dirty stripper” before she broke through with “Bodak Yellow.” Her comments came after podcaster Damona “Mona” Love argued that Cardi’s complexion and heritage gave her an advantage in the entertainment industry, particularly when it comes to brand deals.⁠ ⁠ “I will never not acknowledge the prejudice in our system,” Cardi wrote, adding that recognizing colorism should not mean diminishing her accomplishments or personal experience.⁠ ⁠ Cardi had a lot to say at the link in bio.
