Has anyone else noticed repeated answers on the same day across NYT and Puzzmo crosswords? Like 59 across and 4 down (respectively) today? I've seen this before, and it's not like super common words or little crosswordese words - they tend to be fairly distinctive answers (and clued differently, too). Very odd. #crossword

In case anyone cares, if pressed I could name the following rappers:
• M&Ms
• Nas’y Wrapper
• Lil’ Dog Shit
• 1 Direction

…and… this is where it gets tough… umm

• MC Hammer?

I apparently need to listen to more music. “Siri, play Herb Alpert’s greatest hits.”

Looking at todays #crossword puzzle, I’ve filled it all out except for two square — in three clues, two of which both cross the other. It’s one of those rare, “ I don’t know what the fuck that is (in a foreign language, no less)”, “ I don’t know who the fuck that that is, and I’ve never heard of the movie they’re in,” and “ I couldn’t name five rap artists if you put a gun in my head, so also I have no fucking idea who this is.”

I think I’m gonna have to look one of them up.
