BTS Explain Why Their Hit ‘Dynamite’ ‘Wouldn’t Be Here If There Was No COVID-19′
BTS kicked off Thanksgiving week by landing on the cover of Esquire on Monday (Nov. 23), dishing on everything from the success of “Dynamite” to their brand-new album Be. In the interview, done over Zoom all the way from Big Hit Entertainment headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, the K-pop boy band revealed that the direction of their latest music actually took its cue in response to the ongoing global pandemic. “‘Dynamite’ wouldn’t be here if there was no COVID-19,” RM revealed about the creation of the band’s first-ever No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. “For this song, we wanted to go easy and simple and positive. Not some, like, deep vibes or shadows. We just wanted to go easy.” {“nid”:”9488267″,”type...
‘Shawn Mendes: In Wonder’: Film Review
Shawn Mendes, the 22-year-old Canadian folk-pop singer with the velour trill, is a bard of puppy love. Throughout his prolific oeuvre — three studio albums since 2015 — the male ingénue guilelessly croons about budding romance and sweeping passion and blossoming youth like a modern-day Romeo hopping from muse to muse. “I can’t write one song that’s not about you!” he serenades in “If I Can’t Have You,” his infectiously percussive 2019 single. “Can’t drink without thinkin’ about you! Is it too late to tell you that everything means nothing if I can’t have you?” His songs are as peppy and mellifluous as his persona is honeyed and nonthreatening. Wunderkind Mendes rose to prominence in the post-Bieber era of democratized ...
Nandi Bushell Responds to Dave Grohl’s ‘Submission of Defeat’
After Dave Grohl’s concession to Nandi Bushell on A Late Show With Stephen Colbert last week, the 10-year-old drumming prodigy has shared her response. “Mr. Grohl, thou declare defeat at my feet. The rock Gods of roll watch you retreat. Your legend in history will echo in time, but still, you resign to a child of 3-foot-9 [-inches],” Bushell said in a new video. Filled with lots of screaming and some interesting rhymes, Bushell didn’t just rag on Grohl’s loss but also showed her gratitude for joining the battle. “It has been an honor battling you, Mr. Grohl,” she ended her speech, “and I can’t wait to write our song together.” Bushell and Grohl’s drum battle has been going on since August. Their back-and-forth even sparked t...

PUDDLE OF MUDD Releases New Lyric Video for ‘Go To Hell’
PUDDLE OF MUDD has released a new lyric video for the song “Go To Hell”. The track comes from the band’s 2019 album, “Welcome To Galvania”, which is available via Pavement Entertainment. “Go To Hell” has always been a personal favorite of PUDDLE OF MUDD frontman, Wes Scantlin. The song has taken on an exceptionally poignant meaning with the passing of Wes‘s cousin, Sean Scantlin, and serves as a tribute to him. “Go To Hell” touches on drug addiction and loss in these trying times. Wes, who had almost non-stop problems with the law, alcohol, finances and other issues, before finally getting sober in 2017, says: “‘Go To Hell’ is a song about being between heaven and hell in your mind. Kind of like when the angel is...
