272 NYPD Officers File For Retirement After Black Lives Matter Protests
Source: Noam Galai / Getty It’s beginning to look like the whole “To Protects and Serve” motto of police departments across America is more of a self-serving phrase for their egos than a proverb meant to reassure Americans of their tax-paying responsibilities. A few weeks after 170 Atlanta police officers called in sick in response to their brothers in blue being charged in the death of Rayshard Brooks, The New York Post is reporting that members of the NYPD have staged a similar “protest” in response to the anti-police brutality demonstrations that have taken place in the wake of the murder of George Floyd. According to the report a whopping 272 uniformed police officers in New York City have filed for retirement from May 25th through June 24th compared to the 183 officers who filed their...
Challenge Connection: Nany Says She And Kaycee Were Just ‘Bunkmates’ — But Do You Believe Her?
This “always happens” to Nany: The Challenge veteran, who has been appearing on the show since Battle of the Seasons, makes it all the way to the end without tasting victory. And during tonight’s Total Madness episode, the Real World alum’s journey was cut short yet again when she was defeated in Purgatory (Melissa won the Red Skull in the clash “Off With Your Heads”). And Kaycee, who forged a special bond with Nany, was upset with the outcome. “I care about the girl so much, and I know how bad she wanted to make it to the final,” the Big Brother victor, who opted to vote in Melissa instead of her BB pal Bayleigh in an attempt to help Nany advance, stated. “Nany, I’m super grateful for you. You are an amazing human being. Love you...

Duskus Shares Quirky New bitbird Song “Rising”
One of the brightest young talents on San Holo’s bitbird roster, Duskus has made sure to keep himself as busy as possible over the past few years, solidifying his name as a rising star in the electronic music scene. The Manchester-based producer’s ability to craft emotional and forward-thinking anthems is unquestionable and something that he proves once again with his latest four-on-the-floor single, “Rising.” “Rising” follows Duskus’ collaboration with fellow bitbird signee Taska Black, as well as his late-2019 EP In Retrospect, and makes up for one of his most experimental releases to date. Taken off of his upcoming EP Rising, the single undoubtedly showcases a developed sound from the artist as lighthearted hooks, pretty atmospheres, and catchy vocal chops introduce “Risi...
Mom N Dad Rework Iggy T and The Crazymakers’ “Cake” in Celebration of Pride Month
Mom N Dad has stepped away from their deep, dark, and dirty midtempo sound to give fans a fresh remix of Iggy T and The Crazymakers‘ “Cake” to celebrate Pride Month. “Cake” is lauded as a bisexual anthem and the Denver-based duo has done the track justice with their rendition. “While around the country, we are seeing Gay Prides being canceled left and right, the band still has hopes that digital prides and other LGBTQ+ organizations will find our song ‘Cake’ an uplifting and empowering bisexual anthem, since the B is generally left out of the conversation either due to erasure or misunderstanding of what it means to be bisexual,” said Iggy T and The Crazymakers lead singer Sarah Todd. Mom N Dad have transformed the soulful...
“Wake Up” with This Quirky Hybrid Trap Bomb from Quackson
Rising bass producer Quackson has arrived with “Wake Up,” a glitched out trap thumper that will have you yearning for the head-banging days of yesteryear. Producing vicious dubstep elements and quirky trap synths, “Wake Up” blends elements of both genres to lethal effect. The single will appear on Quackson’s forthcoming debut EP Forgotten Memories, which will represent the culmination of years worth of honing in on his artistic direction. The Seattle-born young gun, who draws inspiration from fellow bass music aficionados G Jones, Kraysh, and Shadient, is on a furious mission to push the envelope of experimental bass music. With his debut project on the horizon, “Wake Up” should serve as a serendipitous taste of honey to those who can’t ...

Orville Peck and Rina Sawayama Cover Pop Hits for Pride Month: Stream
Queer artists Orville Peck and Rina Sawayama have contributed two new cover songs to a Pride-themed installment of the Spotify Singles series. The releases come as the end of Pride month draws near, and just one day after the 51st anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. For his entry, alternative country artist Peck chose to take on “Smalltown Boy”, the 1984 chart-topper from British synthpop trio Bronski Beat. All three members of the group were openly gay and their music was known for taking a stance on LGBTQ+ issues. As for Sawayama, our former Artist of the Month, she reworked Lady Gaga’s “Dance in the Dark”. The original 2010 Fame Monster single talked about body image issues and the importance of being comfortable with one’s own sexuality. Editors’ Picks Musicians usually record th...
