After Billie Eilish threw shade at Travis Scott at her concert on Saturday in Atlanta by saying “I wait for people to be OK before I keep going” after pausing the show to get a struggling fan an inhaler, Kanye West took to Instagram on Thursday to take issue with pop star. West and Eilish […]
Raise your hand if you this coming. OK, put it down. Doja Cat has teamed up with Taco Bell and performed a cover of Hole’s “Celebrity Skin” for the fast-food joint’s Super Bowl commercial this year. The commercial deemed “The Grande Escape,” features the 1998 song that includes newly reworked lyrics in partnership with Courtney […]
To label Big Thief’s panoramic new project a “double album” is something of a misnomer. In totality, the 81-minute mammoth that is Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You is not two halves but four quarters, divided by as many distinct recording sessions, in upstate New York; Topanga Canyon, California; the Colorado Rocky Mountains; […]
A lawsuit has been filed against Snoop Dogg by a California woman who claims he forced oral sex on her in 2013 after attending one of the rapper’s shows. TMZ was first to report the suit. In the suit, which was filed on February 9 and viewed by SPIN, seeing Snoop perform on May 29, 2013, […]
It’s popular for artists to say these days that they don’t care about genre, but Frank Turner really doesn’t care about genre. We’re not talking about going from indie to alternative or something here, but a punk rocker (who’s often bridged the gap between folk, punk, and other forms of Englishman-with-an-acoustic-guitar) releasing an electro-pop album […]

Yard Act‘s James Smith has come a long way from the set of Peaky Blinders. The frontman – a former support worker, music teacher and sometimes-actor – appeared briefly in the famed BBC gangster drama’s third season, where he’s shoved unceremoniously by Cillian Murphy’s Tommy Shelby in a crowded factory. Now, Smith is no longer […]
Choking on your own vomit isn’t a way that anyone wants to die. Rumor has it that this was the fate of Jim Morrison of the Doors one night in Paris back in 1970. Nor is dying from acute liver failure in a New York hospital as Billie Holiday did in 1940 considered desirable, or […]
Over the past few years, Death Row Records has had some curious owners (to put it mildly). Now, the label is coming home (sort of). Snoop Dogg has agreed to a deal with MNRK Music Group, which is owned by private equity fund Blackstone, to become the new owner of the label where he got […]
Caroline Polachek is back with her first single since 2020 with “Billions.” The track emplores elements of psychedelia with an angelic feature of London’s celebrated Trinity Choir. Polacheck recorded and released the song after months of fan anticipation from her frequent live performances of the song last year. “Billions” was produced by Polacheck in collaboration […]
