LAWeekly Instagram: Featuring the culture of LA since 1978 ✌️

For three years, Los Angeles electro-pop artist RY For three years, Los Angeles electro-pop artist RYL0 has been building the world of her debut album “5T4RP0W3R.” Rooted in Greek mythology but centered on her own experiences, the record uses ancient stories to explore identity, personal growth and the relationship between past, present and future. Developed alongside executive producers Taydex and AOBeats, the album became RYL0’s most emotionally complete work yet, embracing both confidence and vulnerability. Ahead of the album's Oct. 2 release, RYL0 tells us about mythmaking, the three-year journey behind the album, balancing her music and visual artistry, and how performing throughout LA's underground scene helped shape the artist she is today. @ryl0fficial Read the interview and see the photos thru @laweekly ✍️ @boyface_ 📸 @kaiocsr
By the time Kenyon Dixon arrived at “EGO RUINS EVE By the time Kenyon Dixon arrived at “EGO RUINS EVERYTHING,” his new album out today, July 24, he had already built the kind of resume that could justify a victory lap. The Los Angeles singer-songwriter had quietly become one of contemporary R&B’s most respected craftsmen, earning five Grammy nominations. Yet when it came time to make his latest album, Dixon found himself looking inward instead of celebrating outward. “EGO RUINS EVERYTHING is a concept album that’s kind of just a journey through ego and learning how to deal with it,” Dixon tells LA Weekly. “It came from a retrospective place — looking at decisions I made, experiences I’ve had and things I’ve seen other people go through.” Loaded with earworms and built without guest features, the album unfolds like a film, following a protagonist learning to confront his ego before finding redemption in the closing moments. At the heart of the project is an artist who has built his career independently, staying true to his purpose while continuing to evolve. @kennygotsoul Read the interview and see the gallery thru @laweekly ✍️ @boyface_ 📸 Gordon Price @gordanprice

Levity has rapidly become one of the hottest acts Levity has rapidly become one of the hottest acts in bass music. We caught up with members John Hauldren and PJ Carberry backstage before and after their B2B set with ALLEYCVT at Zombie Apocalypse Music Festival in Long Beach, where they reflected on their astronomical rise from fans in the crowd to artists headlining the festival stages they once dreamed of playing. “This music changed our lives,” John says. “It changed who we are as people.” The group also opened up about the inspiration behind the next chapter of “Escapism,” staying grounded through sold-out tours and major festival sets, and the advice they’d give aspiring producers chasing their own breakthrough. “The only thing that can stop you is yourself. Really.” @levity.music Read the interview and see the photo gallery thru @laweekly ✍️📸 @carochangcreative @c_a_r___o Cover photo from Electric Forest 2026, courtesy of Shutterfinger
