Bruce Springsteen non pensava di tornare in tour con la E Street Band, non all’inizio del 2026. Avendo passato gli ultimi tre anni a suonare praricamente senza sosta, era il momento di prendersi una pausa. E però il 7 gennaio Renée Good è stata uccisa da un agente dell’ICE durante una protesta a Minneapolis e 17 giorni dopo Alex Pretti è stato ucciso a colpi d’arma da fuoco durante uno scontro con due agenti della U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Springsteen ha risposto con Streets of Minneapolis in cui cita per nome Good e Pretti e attribuisce la responsabilità delle…

Fans have reacted to Hayley Williams‘ and Rina Sawayama‘s surprise cameos in Netflix series DANG!. DANG! is an adult animated series following the misadventures of siblings Eunice, Ruthie and Andrew (voiced by Stephanie Hsu, Poppy Liu and Andrew Law) in New York. However, fans were surprised to hear the some familiar voices during the show’s inaugural season. First was Paramore‘s Hayley Williams, who appears as a fictionalised version of herself as a hallucinatory, otherworldly “guide” in Eunice’s subconscious. “Remember that summer you worked at CVS? ‘Ain’t It Fun’ played every hour in your store – my song got so stuck in…

Out now, the official video comes as his show in Philadelphia on May 30 was filmed in its entirety, and is set to be released in four segments.

To open the show, The Boss played Motown classic ‘War’ – originally written by Barrett Strong and Norman Whitfield –…

Carmen Bryan is taking legal action against N.O.R.E, accusing the rapper of sexual assault back in 1999. The entrepreneur, who shares a child with Nas, has filed a lawsuit against the Queens-born rapper, alleging that there was an instance in 1999 where he forced himself on her in a nightclub. The 20-page complaint was filed yesterday (Wednesday September 9) in New York, and sees Bryan claim that she felt like she had to stay silent for over 25 years due to the “pervasive sexism, sexual objectification, and ‘misogynoir’” in the ‘90s hip-hop scene. According to the filing (as per Rolling…

New Order‘s Stephen Morris has spoken out about the chances of reconciling with “angry person” Peter Hook. The drummer recently spoke to Rolling Stone ahead of New Order and Joy Division’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame this year. The band was formed by Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook and Morris in the wake of Joy Division bandmate Ian Curtis‘ death in 1980. Since New Order’s most recent reunion, the line-up has been centred around Sumner, Morris and Gilbert without Hook. Now, Morris has opened up about the potential of reconciling with Hook, telling the magazine: “He’s quite an angry person.…

Creative blocks come to the best of us, but it’s safe to say Natanya Popoola hasn’t been met by one yet. In just over the span of a year, the north Londoner has seemingly tapped into a boundless well of lyric and verse, spouting not one, but two EPs: ‘Feline’s Return’ and ‘Feline’s Return Act II’. Now, with her latest mixtape ‘Attitude Era!’, the singer, songwriter and producer debuts her most authentic self with a pose, wink and hair flip to boot. Collaborating with hit-making producer Oscar Scheller (PinkPantheress, Charli XCX, Rina Sawayama) is a no-brainer, and in keeping with…

Sometimes it won’t come out,” Oberst added on his Instagram. Invention 13 was co-directed with Shawn Foree, and will feature actors Emory Cohen and Olivia Howard. Pro skater Nelly Morville will also make an appearance in the film, while Phoebe Bridgers –…

Dolly Parton’s sister Stella has shared the reason the late country legend chose to keep her cancer diagnosis secret. In her first interview since Dolly’s death, Stella told Gayle King that the true nature of Dolly’s health was only known to select people. “Some of us knew, the ones of us that were closer,” she told King.  Dolly’s death was announced on August 25, and her cause of death was revealed as a “brief battle with cancer” a few days later. Though Dolly previously told fans she was “dealing with some health issues that I just didn’t pay attention to”…

I blinked too fast, and all of a sudden, it was time to do retrospectives on the music of Young Thug. After briefly confronting my own mortality—Barter 6 and “2 B’s (Danny Glover)” are how old?—it’s staggering to consider just how large the YSL head honcho’s musical and cultural footprints are. Heads were using terms like “post-text” to describe the way his voice landed on people’s eardrums back in 2016, and there isn’t another rapper alive whose excitable flows and vocal tics could be credited with both reshaping Atlanta rap and inspiring Elton John. Even at what’s arguably the nadir…
