Jessie gets her flowers in Taylor Swift's Toy Story 5 song “I Knew It, I Knew You.” The track pulls inspiration from the Pixar series' beloved character, who is featured on the art for the track, and marks a return to Swift's country roots. On the blissful song, Swift sings the catchy chorus, “I saw you, standing there in the light of the window/Wearing that same smile/Man, it's been a while.” The star reunited with her longtime collaborator and friend Jack Antonoff to co-produce and co-write “I Knew It, I Knew You” (the duo last worked together on 2024's The…

After teasing music on her social media acounts this week, Tinashe has released the single “Too Easy,” her first new material in two years. The singer and noted Spencer Pratt hater tapped Kimj and Zack Sekoff to co-produce the song, which got its live premiere back in April during her DJ set at Coachella’s Do LaB.

Earlier this year, Isaac Brock brought about 2,400 of his disciples aboard the inaugural Ice Cream Floats, a festival cruise during which his band Modest Mouse performed three sets across a four-day journey between Miami and the Dominican Republic. Brock, initially reluctant, wanted to route the ship from Seattle to Alaska, figuring it’d be a logical backdrop for the Pacific Northwest band’s songs about isolation—he only acquiesced to tropical waters so that their “dumb rock music” wouldn’t disrupt northern nature preserves. Three decades since Modest Mouse’s debut album and two since “Float On” propelled them to MTV stardom, a cruise…

Taylor Swift has released “I Knew It, I Knew You,” a new song from Toy Story 5 she co-wrote and co-produced with frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff. The drop comes one month after a 48-hour countdown was leaked onto Swift’s official website—featuring a backdrop that looked almost identical to the cloudy wallpaper from Andy’s room in the films—before being taken down entirely. On June 1, a second countdown appeared on Swift’s homepage, this time showing Jessie moseying around a farm. The clock ended with a link to a pre-order for three collector’s editions of “I Knew It, I Knew You” on…

A grand jury has added new counts to Lil Durk's murder-for-hire case, transforming the federal prosecution into a broader racketeering case that now accuses the Grammy-winning rapper and his co-defendants of murder in aid of racketeering and conspiracy to commit stalking. The third superseding indictment, filed Thursday, introduces a new allegation involving the Jan. 27, 2022, killing of a “rival gang member” in Chicago. It accuses the “All My Life” rapper, born Durk Banks, of acting as the leader of a menacing Chicago street gang and offering a reward that led to the killing. According to the filing, obtained by…

“Good evening dear Sylvain, I've recorded a performance of your score #86. Best regards, L.” The union that sees the art of graphic notation of Sylvain Chauveau and the sound practice of Luigi Turra intersect from here, in September 2022. An almost natural fusion between similar sensibilities, both poised between visual art and sound. In common there is the profoundly poetic approach to the respective subjects, the elegance of the minimal gesture, the active value of the pause as a significant waiting space. Neither of the two components aims to define a concluded narrative vector, acting rather as a trace…

The Beatles and Apple Corps Ltd have come together to officially recognise Global Beatles Day, which will be celebrated later this month. Set to take place on June 25, the day will celebrate all things about the Fab Four, and see the band and Apple Corps Ltd – the company founded by The Beatles to manage their creative and business ventures – come together for some new announcements. The date was chosen as it was on that day in 1967 when John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr walked into Studio One at London’s Abbey Road Studios, and…
