Beyoncé Shares Letter to Fans Ahead of ‘Renaissance’ Album Release
Just one day prior to the release of her seventh studio album Renaissance, Beyoncé has released a letter to fans, in which she details her intentions with the record, hands out thank-yous and confirms that the project includes three acts. “This three-act project was recorded over three years during the pandemic. A time to be still, but also a time I found to be the most creative,” she opened the statement, before later disclosing her goals with the project: “My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom.” The record, which will arrive as a follow-up to Lemonade, includes contributions from a slew of top-shelf composers, including Drake, Jay-Z, Skrillex, The-Dream, H...
Pantera’s 10 Best Songs
The story of Pantera is bound to the modernization of heavy metal in the 1990s, but the band’s origins began long before that. Formed by guitar virtuoso “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott and his brother, drummer Vinnie Paul, Pantera began as a rather rudimentary ’80s metal band: big hair, glam riffs, and unfortunate album titles such as Metal Magic and Projects in the Jungle. Bassist Rex Brown was along for the ride from nearly the beginning, but things shifted when vocalist Phillip H. Anselmo joined the band after they had already released three under-the-radar albums. While Anselmo was on board for 1988’s Power Metal, It would be the seminal 1990 album Cowboys from Hell that truly marked the arrival of the Pantera that is now recognized as one of the best heavy metal bands of all time. Perhaps th...
Madonna Says Directing Biopic Was “Preemptive Strike”: “No One’s Going to Tell My Story But Me”
Madonna has further explained why she took the reins for her own biopic, which the pop icon will be both directing and co-writing. In a new interview with Variety, the singer gave an update on the film’s progress and offered insight into why she considered it “a preemptive strike.” “I have a very long script that is really hard for me to make shorter,” Madonna told the magazine. “I’ve been whittling away at it, but it’s like hacking off my limbs.” After hinting at pressure to make an “extraordinary” film due to her “extraordinary life,” the Material Girl alluded to “misogynistic men” who made similar attempts in the past. “It was also a preemptive strike because a lot of people were trying to make movies about me. Mostly misogynistic men,” she said. “So I put my foot in the door and said, ...
B.J. Novak Deals Out Some Intriguing But Muddled Vengeance: Review
The Pitch: Ben (B.J. Novak) is a guy who doesn’t necessarily have something to say, but he wants to be the type of guy who says stuff worth hearing. That’s why, despite being a working writer in New York, with publication credits including The New Yorker, what he really wants is to make a podcast. “Not every white guy needs a podcast,” producer Eloise (Issa Rae) tells him when he tries to hard-sell her on his ideas at a party, but things change when a former hookup of Ben’s ends up leading him to podcasting gold. Awakened in the middle of the night by a phone call from a stranger, Ben finds out that a girl named Abilene Shaw, who he’d slept with a few times and texted casually, has died, and her family back home in small-town Texas thinks he was the love of Abby’s life. So, after a guilt t...

Democratic Congressmen Introduce Bill to Ban Use of Lyrics as Court Evidence
A new bill has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives that would ban the use of lyrics as evidence in court proceedings. Introduced by Representatives Hank Johnson (Democrat of Georgia) and Jamaal Bowman (Democrat of New York), the Restoring Artistic Protection Act (RAP Act) intends to protect artists from having their lyrics being used as evidence against them in criminal and civil proceedings. Specifically, the RAP Act would impact the Federal Rules of Evidence by adding a presumption “that would limit the admissibility of evidence of an artist’s creative or artistic expression against that artist in court.” The proposed legislation is supported by the Recording Academy, Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), Universal Music Group, 300 Entertainment, SAG-AFTRA, a...
