There's little that Morgan Freeman hasn't done throughout his seven decades in show business. He's won Oscars and Golden Globe Awards, starred in countless movies and Broadway plays, narrated documentaries, championed environmental causes, and lent his star power to political campaigns. And now just one year short of his 90th birthday, he's broadening out into music with the release of his upcoming album, Morgan Freeman's Symphonic Blues Experience. The 12-song LP is a journey through 100 years of blues music, and features guest appearances by Taj Mahal, Keb' Mo', Lady Adrena, Shemekia Copeland, Anthony Big A Sherrod, Lady Adrena, and…
The path to liberation does not run through comfort. That much has always been true. In some tellings, as the Pharaoh's army chased Moses towards the Red Sea, a member of the tribe had to wade nearly up to their chin in the raging waters before Moses raised his staff and the sea split in two. Despite not knowing how to swim, Harriet Tubman plunged into the waterways of Maryland's Eastern Shore to help others escape their bondage. Staring down billy clubs and snarling dogs, John Lewis and the marchers summoned the strength to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge over…
It took almost thirteen years and a contract with Frontiers Records to be able to hear new material from Roland Grapow's Masterplan – if we exclude the forgettable album by… Daniel D`Amico for SANREMO.FM
It’s been a tough run for the industry, but there’s plenty of strong contenders for game of the year, from old franchises to all-new IP To put it lightly, 2026 has been rough for the gaming industry. Amid wall-to-wall layoffs and studio closures, highly anticipated titles like Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia revival have been canned and long-running live-service games like Destiny 2 have been shuttered, leaving dedicated communities without closure. Just this week, reports emerged that Xbox will dissolve multiple teams — including one whose new game was just announced days prior. And that’s all before getting to the ongoing…
Of all the fantasy worlds in film, television, and literature, none are more brutal than Westeros. Life is cheap, words are wind, sons murder their fathers with no remorse, and anyone who believes something as abstract as honor tends to get killed on the business end of a sword — or a dragon. But in its second season, HBO's House of the Dragon dared to ask if it has to be this way. Is it possible to win the game of thrones without slaughtering your enemies wholesale? What happens when some of the biggest power players in the Seven Kingdoms…
Thirty years ago Peter Criss and Ace Frehley reunited with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley Daniel D`Amico for SANREMO.FM
Surf Gang head honcho Evilgiane is a star in his own right, but he’s still at his most inspired in a posse. The second record in his #Heavensgate series recruits both familiar faces (Xaviersobased, RealYungPhil, Slimesito, Harto Falión) and fresh recruits (Jckzebra, Lazer Dim 700, Rico Nasty) to do their worst over 23 pulsating, aqueous beats, which flow so naturally it’s easy to mistake them for your own heartbeat. Giane’s signature is easily clockable these days for anyone casually familiar with hip-hop’s post-Carti underground, but #Heavensgate2 indicates he still has plenty of new ground to cover, and opportunities to stretch…
Article by Giulio Taminelli | Photo by Mathias Marchioni From Wednesday 17 June Iron Maiden are officially the first metal band to have played as headliners at the San Siro stadium. As a good reporter I was present at the event and, as a good «Maiden» fan, I also had a lot of fun. Once I returned home and found myself in front of the page where I should have written the piece, I realized that perhaps this event, due to its scope and also some of the controversies it created, needed to be told with a clear mind and…
According to Stewart Copeland, the lawsuit pitting him and Andy Summers against former bandmate Sting hasn't ruined their relationship. Indeed, they get along well despite the fact that the drummer and guitarist have sued the singer, saying they were unfairly excluded from the distribution of royalties from The Police's songs. They asked for two million dollars. Sting awarded them $870,000, but the two are demanding a larger sum.Something like this usually ruins relationships (not that before…). Copeland instead says that he, Summers and Sting get along well. «We are not the ones who are in court. Accountants are, somewhere in…
