HiTech had the year

Recommend drop: the original is an unqualified victory-lap profile, but its July 11 Majestic show was canceled after a member was publicly accused of sexual assault, so the celebratory framing is no longer accurate or safe to republish.

HiTech had the year

Recommend drop. The album, the 2024 Kresge Fellowship, the Loma Vista signing, Coachella, Movement and Roskilde all check out, but the piece is an unqualified hype profile that celebrates a July 11 Red Bull set at the Majestic Theatre as a triumph; that show was canceled on July 11, 2025 after a July 8 open letter accused member King Milo of sexual assault and abuse, so the victory-lap framing is now inaccurate and off-brand to republish (a balanced news story covering both the achievements and the allegations would be a different article, and belongs in News, not a resurfaced Music profile).
