When I was writing these songs, my first thought of who I wanted to produce this was Sufjan, because I love how dreamy he can make music, and how whimsical, and how much character he has to everything that he makes. And I just felt like it would be the perfect energy for a children’s album: To blend my songwriting with his production and arranging and playing. You just hear his influence all over the album and I…

In September 2022, Jane’s Addiction fans were dealt the rather shocking news that original bassist Eric Avery was returning to the group after a 12-year absence, but guitarist Dave Navarro was taking an indefinite break so he could recover from Long Covid. “I really do have to consider everybody on the crew and their families,” Jane’s frontman Perry Farrell explained to Rolling Stone. “They have mouths to feed, and they haven’t had a paycheck in almost two years.” Over the next year, the void Navarro left in Jane’s was first filled by Queens of the Stone Age guitarist Troy Van…

Elon Musk has trouble telling the truth. Whether he’s overpromising on what his companies can accomplish or twisting the facts about his own children, it’s clear he doesn’t feel constrained by reality, which is no doubt what made him into the mogul of misinformation he is today.  Almost two years after Musk completed his $44 billion takeover of Twitter (now X), he and the platform — where he reigns not just as owner but the most-followed user — have become essential to the life cycle of incendiary falsehoods and conspiracy theories. While mainstream social media companies have long tried to…

Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz made their political debut to throngs of screaming supporters in Philadelphia on Tuesday night. The next day, they hopscotched over to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, for a casual meet up with 12,000 Bon Iver-heads, before touching down in Detroit, where some 15,000 people turned up on the Detroit Metro tarmac to greet them. Harris was on stage inside an airplane hangar a little while later, when her speech — and the positive vibes that have propelled her campaign for the past two and half weeks — were interrupted by protesters demonstrating against the…

Ariana Grande has revealed that “time and therapy” have helped her to reconnect with and “re-embrace” her old music. The ‘Yes, And?’ singer discussed the topic during her recent impressively-controlled appearance on Hot Ones, on which host Sean Evans asked her if there were songs she would like to retire.

I had some fun clicking through the archives, but I also noticed that these are the exact sort of clips a politician might leak of themselves after they were caught muttering a racist remark or banging their assistant. The footage is presented as a raw hard drive dump, but in reality it’s as curated and manicured as any other self-made popstar documentary, formulated to reaffirm the loyalty of diehard fans. Surprisingly, there are no videos of Drake kissing babies and volunteering at a homeless shelter on the weekends.Drake became a star because of his vulnerability and goofiness. It felt like…
