Jerry Jeff Walker, Outlaw Country Legend, Dead at 78
Jerry Jeff Walker has passed away. The outlaw country legend died on Friday from cancer-related complications after being diagnosed with throat cancer in 2017. He was 78. Born Ronald Clyde Crosby in Oneonta, New York, the singer-songwriter spent his youth playing guitar in local bands. In 1960 he graduated from high school and set out to become a full-time musician.

In 1968, Walker released what would become his most well known single, “Mr. Bojangles.” Inspired by a New Orleans street performer he met in a drunk tank, the song would later be covered by Bob Dylan, Dolly Parton, Nina Simone, Neil Diamond, Sammy Davis Jr. and many others.

UZ Opens Up About His Final Album “Trinity,” Getting Sober, and the Future of Trap Music [Interview]
Operating behind a black and gold mask while dishing out forward-thinking trap beats over the past decade, enigmatic producer UZ has undoubtedly managed to craft his own style, solidifying himself as a true electronic music trailblazer. After achieving viral success in 2012 with his “Trap Shit” series on Diplo’s Mad Decent imprint, UZ took his bass-heavy sound to stages around the world, developed his own Quality Goods Records label, and established himself as an underground legend. It was in 2017 when, alongside the release of his debut album Layers, UZ decided to take off the mask, revealing himself as the two-time DMC winning DJ Troubl, as well as enigmatic UK house producer Plezier. A massive moment for UZ, Layers was followed up by 2018’s The Rebirth, when t...
Listen to Marshmello, Imanbek and Usher’s Mega-Collab “Too Much”
When Imanbek released his remix of SAINt JHN‘s “Roses” in late 2019, never in his wildest dreams did he think it would lead to this. Riding on the sizzling coattails of his multi-platinum global hit, the Kazakh producer has joined forces with Marshmello for a new single called “Too Much,” which features fabled R&B artist Usher. Arriving by way of RCA Records, the track picks up right where Imanbek’s summer 2020 landmark tune left off. With a similar house-pop hybrid structure, it is essentially the “Roses” remix on steroids, inflated by the horsepower of Marshmello and Usher. The vocal effort from the latter is nothing short of stellar, lending to a surefire radio hit. Usher is no stranger to the dance music world. He ...
Cristina Soto Releases Acoustic Remix of Illenium and Said The Sky Collab, “Painted White”
Back in June 2020, Cristina Soto revisited her 2012 breakout hit with Tritonal, “Still With Me.” However, that song was far from the only success she had in the dance music scene in the 2010s. In 2015, Soto teamed up with Illenium and Said The Sky to release “Painted White,” and today she has given the collaborative effort a makeover with a scintillating acoustic version of the track. Those familiar with “Painted White” will surely be hit with a blast of nostalgia while listening to her acoustic rendition. Soto’s flawless vocals are unmistakable and pair effortlessly with the gentle guitar riff and light orchestral elements that have replaced the aggressive kicks and distorted synths featured in the original. The lyrics remain exactly the...

HAIM Get a Call from Robert Pattinson During “3 AM” Performance on Seth Meyers: Watch
HAIM have really got this “appearing on a late night talk show during quarantine” thing down. Last month, they set up outside of Los Angeles’ The Forum for a performance on Kimmel. Then on Thursday night, the siblings brought Halloween — and a special guest — to Seth Meyers. The trio’s rendition of “3 AM” from their latest LP, Women in Music Pt. III, opened with a call from Robert Pattinson. Listed in HAIM’s phone as “Emotional Vampire” (get it? ‘Cause of Twilight? You get it…), Pattinson recreated the booty-call intro from the album version of the song. After sending him to voicemail, the band revealed themselves in wedding gowns as (slightly) undead brides set in an exceedingly well-lit backyard. The vibe put a spooky sheen on the R&B jam, including a comically threatening call ...
