''I'm Not Your Man'' is the second full-length studio album by English musician Marika Hackman.

Comparing it to Hackman's debut album, Rob Hughes of ''Uncut'' said, "''I'm Not Your Man'' is a much rowdier navigation of female relationships and sexuality that moves between dark dreampop and post-Belly/Breeders rock, armed with flashing hooks." Andre Pain of the ''Evening Standard'' said, "Hackman has come of age on this arresting and emotionally charged album." Chris Taylor of ''The Line of Best Fit'' praised the album, writing, "Her new found confidence comes through in spades here and the end product is a re ...

Q (magazine)
''Q'' was a popular music magazine published monthly in the United Kingdom. It was founded in 1986 by broadcast journalists Mark Ellen and David Hepworth, who were presenters of the BBC television music series ''The Old Grey Whistle Test''. ''Q'''s final issue was published in July 2020. ''Q'' was originally published by the EMAP media group and set itself apart from much of the other music press with monthly production and higher standards of photography and printing. In the early years, the magazine was sub-titled "The modern guide to music and more". Originally it was to be called ''Cue'' (as in the sense of cueing a record, ready to play), but the name was changed so that it would not be mistaken for a snooker magazine. Another reason, cited in ''Q''s 200th edition, is that a single-letter title would be more prominent on newsstands. In January 2008, EMAP sold its consumer magazine titles, including ''Q'', to the Bauer Media Group. Bauer put the title up for sale in 2020 ...
