He just began his protest of kneeling during the national anthem to bring attention to racial inequality and police brutality in the United States. With his addition, he will be one of the top free agents in the game thanks to EA, giving him an 81 overall rating. Out of the 111 quarterbacks featured in Madden NFL ...

Ida Engberg Denounces Tributes to Erick Morillo: “We Should Not Glorify Rapists”
Swedish dance music producer and DJ Ida Engberg has decried tributes to Erick Morillo in the wake of the “I Like To Move It” artist’s death. As tributes to the late DJ—who was found dead on September 1st, 2020 in Miami Beach—continue to pour in via social media, Engberg took to Instagram to share a statement urging the music community not to forget about his transgressions.

We owe it to all women of our generation and to generations to come. We should not glorify rapists,” Engber...
Watch Wooli Drop Mind-Melting Unreleased Subtronics Collab at Drive-In Rave
Bass music titan Wooli threw down a rip-roaring dubstep set over the weekend at “Pavement Rave,” a drive-in concert series in Scranton, PA. During his set, he uncorked a mammoth collaboration with fellow dubstep maven Subtronics, dropping the curtain on a quirky dubstep bomb that rattled the home of Dunder Mifflin. An eerie vocal refrain of “it’s all in your head” echoes throughout a monster build, which culminates in a dubstep drop of leviathan proportions. It features wacky, frenetic synths, which run roughshod through a thunderous bass and punchy drums. Wooli took to Twitter to retweet a video of the song and tease its impending release, writing, “Subtronics collab will only be finished if you clap loudly. The applause-o-meter is ready to hear ho...
Justin Bieber Shows Off His Rosy New Tattoo
Justin Bieber, who recently played Drake in a music video, is one of those incredibly famous people you’d still be able to recognize even if you couldn’t see his face. Pretty much his entire upper body is covered in tattoos, which you can see very clearly in the aforementioned music video, including a lion head and a bear head on his chest and the words “Son of God” across his stomach. But one piece of ink not featured in the clip is his latest: a rose that fits neatly along the length of his neck. Bieber showed off the new tat on Instagram earlier this week and gave a shout-out to the artist, Dr. Woo. Along with a behind-the-scenes clip of the inking process, Bieber also shared a clip of him singing the 1998 K-Ci & JoJo song “All My Life” while acco...
Lana Del Rey Says Wear A Mask With Interview Cover: ‘Just Not, You Know, This One’
Ever-heartbroken, ever-nostalgic, the Brooklyn-born songstress Lana del Rey is, additionally, ever the outsider to the contemporary pop arena. Her forthcoming sixth studio album, Chemtrails Over the Country Club, promises to include more of the high-Americana and desolate, one-liner-laden lyrics listeners have come to expect from previous releases Born to Die and Norman Fucking Rockwell. And though it did not meet its originally scheduled release date of September 5, the collection is apparently nearly finished and ready for rollout later this month. To toast the occasion, Del Ray appeared on the cover of Interview dressed in the protective (well, not really) look du jour: a glittering, rhinestone-encrusted mesh mask so thin the singer’s pout is only slightly shro...
Janelle Monáe Is Triumphant On New Rallying Cry ‘Turntables’
Janelle Monáe is back, and she’s turning the tables. On Tuesday (September 8), the multi-hyphenate shared an empowering new song called “Turntables,” a rousing call to change that will feature on the soundtrack of new Amazon documentary All In: The Fight for Democracy. The film centers around voter suppression and prominently features Stacey Abrams; as a result, “Turntable,” too, goes all in, with Monáe using the song’s lyrics as a platform. “I’m kicking out the old regime / Liberation, elevation, education,” she says. “America, you a lie / But the whole world ’bout to testify.” Over a soulful, minimal backbeat, Monáe packs a ton of uplifting talk of the winds of change into just under three minutes: “Burning dow...
MARILYN MANSON Is Worried About The Psychological Impact Of Quarantine
In a new interview with Consequence Of Sound, Marilyn Manson spoke about how the coronavirus pandemic has been handled and its effect on society. He said: “It’s somewhat terrifying to actually think about, in a way, that I suppose our parents and their parents have been through much harder tribulations and trials in life, from wars to financial depression and other illnesses that have destroyed many parts of the world and different countries, not just ours. For me, it’s a beam of hope that possibly if we all stopped concerning ourselves with focusing on negative elements of our culture, in general as Americans, we can try to come together as much as possible. I don’t mean to sound like John Lennon, just the concept that if any time, people of different cultures and ...
