Megan Thee Stallion & Beyoncé Could Make Grammy History With ‘Savage’
This would be Beyoncé’s first nomination for best rap performance. With Megan Thee Stallion‘s “Savage” (featuring Beyoncé) jumping from No. 4 to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week, the track is a serious contender for a Grammy nomination for best rap performance. This would be the first time in 23 years that an all-female collab was nominated in that category (or one of its forerunner categories, best rap solo performance or best rap performance by a duo or group). It last happened when “Not Tonight” by Lil’ Kim featuring Da Brat, Left Eye, Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott and Angie Martinez was nominated for the 1997 award for best rap performance by a duo or group. This would be Beyoncé’s first nomination for best rap performan...
Here Are the Lyrics to Luke Combs’ ‘Six Feet Apart’
Luke Combs can’t wait for the day he doesn’t have to stay “Six Feet Apart” from everyone, but at least he doesn’t have to wait for another hit: His quarantine single debuted at No. 58 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week (dated May 16). Combs first performed the song last month on one of his laidback livestream jam sessions, where he listed all the people he misses seeing — his mom, dad and band — as well as all the things he misses doing, including performing, drinking with his buddies and catching a ball game. But until then, he reassures his listeners with this omen in the chorus: “And there will be light after dark/ Someday when we aren’t six feet apart.” Check out the social distancing-friendly lyrics below. When the dogwo...
Iggy Pop Reads a Bedtime Story About His Beloved His Dog
Artist Maurizio Cattelan’s”Bedtime Stories” is a new initiative for NYC’s The New Museum in which musicians and other creators reading short tales in a soothing voice. The inaugural edition features Iggy Pop and his beloved dog Tromba. This is not your typical bedtime story, and should probably not be played for small children. While it begins with Iggy Pop falling in love with a stray “across the divided highway,” the story climaxes with Tromba’s death some time later after being hit by a car. But even so, the punk icon’s affection for the dog is never in doubt, and he peppers the story with moments of humor. “I picked you up and put you on my lap and thought about keeping you,” he said, “and in less than a minute I was covered in fleas.” He ends the tale with a touching message for ...
Timothy Olyphant Joins The Mandalorian Season 2
The Force is strong with Timothy Olyphant. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Deadwood star has joined the Star Wars galaxy by signing on for the second season of Disney+’s The Mandalorian. As of publication, there’s no word on who he’ll be playing, but given Olyphant’s hunky looks and trademark wit, we’re kind of, maybe, okay, we totally are, hoping he’s playing Dash Rendar from Shadows of the Empire. That may be wishful thinking, but seeing how we’re seeing Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano and Temuera Morrison as Boba Fett, it’s not exactly out of the question. At the very least, it would connect that Star Wars legend. Whatever the case, Olymphant joins a stacked cast that also includes The Terminator and Aliens star Michael Biehn in an undisclosed role. We’ll also take Biehn as Renda...
Hacker Group Leaks Confidential Lady Gaga Files, Threatens to Next Take Down Donald Trump
This week, a cache of confidential Lady Gaga files was leaked by a hacker group. Those same cybercriminals are now aiming to bring down Donald Trump. It all started earlier this week, when Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, one of the most prominent law firms in the entertainment industry, became the target of a hacker group using ransomware called REvil. The massive cyberattack resulted in over 750 gigabytes of stolen data pertaining to the firm’s A-list clientele, which include Gaga, Bruce Springsteen, Drake, U2, and Madonna, as well as Robert De Niro, Bette Midler, and LeBron James. The hacker group offered to return the classified data in exchange for $21 million dollars, according to Rolling Stone. Rather than cough up the ransom money, however, attorney Allen Grubman and the rest of...
Cats Musical Streaming for Free on YouTube for 48 Hours: Watch
Last month, Andrew Lloyd Webber teamed up with Universal Home Entertainment to stream a selection of his musicals for free. After playing some hits (The Phantom of the Opera) and some flops (By Jeeves), Weber has now unlocked Cats, the unkillable stage show with more than nine lives. As Playbill reports, Cats will be streaming for the next 48 hours, with suggested donations benefiting the Actor’s Fund COVID-19 Relief. Unlike Tom Hooper’s neutered film adaptation, the stage production of Cats was a massive, paradigm-shifting hit. It won Tony and Laurence Olivier Awards for Best New Musical, is one of the longest-running productions in Broadway and West End history, and has grossed nearly $3 billion worldwide. This particular version was filmed in 1998, and starred Elaine Paig...

Nitti Gritti Teams Up with Mario on R&B-Infused Future Bass Single “Another Way”
Miami native Nitti Gritti has been known to incorporate many styles into his own unique sound. From catchy pop music to gnarly bass numbers, the red-hot producer has touched on nearly every genre across the spectrum. Now, he’s enlisted the help of his friend and fellow musician Mario, the R&B superstar perhaps best known for his hit 2004 single, “Let Me Love You,” for a brand new amalgamation of styles. “Another Way” is chock-full of late 90s and early 2000s R&B influence. The introduction and verses’ rhodes piano chords and soulful, romantic lyrics call to mind works from the likes of Usher or Boyz II Men. However, the production elements that guide those sultry and nostalgic notes forward are very much at home in 2020....

ILLENIUM has released a remix package for his third album, ASCEND. The ASCEND remix album is a perfect blend of genres. Artists such as Drezo, Breathe Carolina, and Snakehips have reworked fan favorites into house heaters while the likes of WHIPPED CREAM, Blunts & Blondes, and Tisoki have given some tracks a healthy dose of bass.
