It was just a few weeks before Beyoncé revealed the track list for her country project, Cowboy Carterand at the time, he was keeping it a secret that he had worked with Beyoncé at all. He also didn't even know if his contributions to the LP made the cut. “That was almost three years ago. Sometimes it's like a blur, do you know?” Shaboozey tells Rolling Stone in a special live episode of the Nashville Now podcasts. “That was a wild year. It was definitely like being on a…

Taylor Swift is no stranger to breaking records, but it's been a good minute since one of her singles has swept country radio. Or, as Swift herself put it in a note that appeared in Monday's edition of industry trade Country Aircheck“man, it's been a while.” This week, Swift's “I Knew It, I Knew You” from the Toy Story 5 soundtrack was the first song by a woman in history to close out the panel on impact: meaning, every single country radio station reporting to Mediabase signed on to play the song, in the very first week. That's a feat…
President Donald Trump was booed by fans at Madison Square Garden on Monday, after locking down Midtown Manhattan so he and members of his family and administration could attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals. To cope with the rejection from the hometown crowd, Trump fell back on one of his favorite methods of self-soothing: calling a Black person dumb. After sports commentator Stephen A.

The music sounds serene with spongy guitar and angelic backing vocals when Interpol frontman Paul Banks sings, “This mirror weighs a ton, but at least we act sudden” with staccato conviction. That turn of phrase, which gives both the band’s eighth album and lead track its title, This Mirror Weighs a Ton, frankly doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, and that’s sort of the point since Banks came up with it while improvising the melodies and vocals simultaneously. It’s highly refined automatic writing, and the band said it sets up the rest of the album, due out Aug. 28.…
