Lady Gaga Hilariously “Shanked” Ariana Grande While Filming “Rain On Me” Music Video
Gaga shared a hysterical behind-the-scenes clip from the “Rain On Me” music video. Back in May 2020, Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande dropped the official music video for their larger-than-life collaboration “Rain On Me.” The rave-themed cyberpunk video was a masterstroke in choreography and added another degree of legend to the instant classic, which we predicted as an early frontrunner for the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. Lady Gaga has now taken to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes look into the making of the scintillating music video. “I’m still glowing from all of the love for “Rain On Me” from the VMAs!” she wrote. “So [Ariana Grande] and I wanted to share some of the fun we had making the video.” The clip features a ...

Manager of Lady Gaga Producer BloodPop®: Women “Will Usher in a New Revolution” of Dance Music
Following the release of her sixth studio album Chromatica, Lady Gaga is going to need a forklift to haul the hardware coming her way. According to a report by Bloomberg, Gaga has dethroned Bad Bunny as the world’s biggest pop star thanks to the EDM-inspired Chromatica, which features production from Madeon, Skrillex, Tchami, Axwell, and Boys Noize, among others. Following the album’s ballyhooed release, it skyrocketed up the charts to rapidly emerge as the best-selling album in the US this past month. According to Bloomberg, Mother Monster sold over 400,000 copies over the course of the month while no other artist even eclipsed 300,000. The record’s lead singles, “Stupid Love” and “Rain on Me,” the latter of which we predicted as an...

The 101 Best Albums of the 2010s
Why now? Because — and there’s no reason to ignore the elephant in the room: SPIN stewardship has changed hands many, many times since we made the online jump — we got our chance. Because plenty of our favorite albums of the last 10 years could still use a boost. Because some of the already unanimously beloved music on this list still merits further praise. Because we relish excuses to sound off on the music that’s affected us the most and to enlist some of our favorite writers to do so. Because the works of art below serve as a reminder that the 2010s weren’t all bad. Because lord knows we need the distraction. Because it’s fun. There’s a lot of music that isn’t on this list. Which, duh, but plenty of artists whose work defined the decade for many, many people, including many of us, ...

Dave Grohl, Neil Young, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga led a group of artists urging Congress to send aid and to answer the National Independent Venue Association’s request for government assistance. Overall, over 600 musicians and comedians signed the letter.

Tchami Speaks About His Creative Process Behind Production for Lady Gaga on “Chromatica”
It seems that French EDM superstar Tchami has no plans of slowing down. His bass house revolution has been ongoing for years now, and he’s now even broken into the mainstream. After working with pop queen Lady Gaga on her 2013 release “Applause,” Tchami collaborated with Gaga once again on her latest studio album, Chromatica. Tchami is credited as a producer on the Chromatica cut “Rain On Me,” a collaboration with Ariana Grande. His French house-inspired take on the production has already drawn comparisons to the mighty Daft Punk, but Tchami’s touch is unmistakable. “You want to create a musical piece that fits the artist aesthetic while also representing him or her at a specific point in time,” Tchami told...
