Rapper Papoose on the Power of Independence
I’ve graced magazine covers, starred in reality shows, toured in countless countries, and been on billboards around the world–all because of the gift I’ve been blessed with. Yet, I don’t take these blessings for granted. I know the music that has changed my life is the same rhythm that is reshaping the world we all live in. So, I make sure to create songs like “Monopoly,” “Law Library,” and other tracks that tell the full scope of the human experience, because I know the impact my voice can have, and I want to use it to teach and inspire. I began my career in the not-so-forgiving borough of Brooklyn. Although I always believed in my talent—self—releasing white-label singles and mixtapes for years—the gravitational pull of the streets had me on the verge of thr...
Billy Corgan and Chloé Mendel on Highland Park Fundraiser, Reclaiming ‘Space in the Community’
The shooting in Highland Park, Illinois during a Fourth of July parade, which left seven people dead and 46 others wounded, became a tragedy that the entire nation felt. But for Billy Corgan and his partner, Chloé Mendel, it hit much closer to home — quite literally. “When you go through this, it’s like you don’t want to walk past where this happened,” Corgan tells SPIN over Zoom. “I mean, we were there last night eating ice cream literally right beneath where the shooter was. We’re there all the time, and we have to reclaim our space in the community.” That reclamation is why the two owners of the neighborhood’s tea shop and plant-based emporium, Madame ZuZu’s, are hosting Together and Together Again — A Benefit for the Highland Park Community Foundation, a live-streamed concert to r...

Heritage Auctions has just listed the “finest known example” of a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle. One of the most sought-after sports cards, this particular 52 Mantle has a pretty interesting history where it was sold in 1991 in New York for $50,000 USD by Al Rosen aka “Mr. Mint.” Part of his 1985 “Rosen Find” where Rosen was able to amass 75 mint ‘52 Mantles, this card has now surfaced some 30 years later where it has been SGC graded Mint+ 9.5 and comes with the original New York Post newspaper clipping and letter from the late Mr. Mint himself. Riding on last year’s sale of a PSA 9 which sold for a record $5.2 million USD, prices for the grail card continue to climb where a PSA 1 alone now sells for over $50,000 USD. Estimated to set a new record, and to sell for roughly $10 million USD, setti...
Xbox Receives Quicker Boot Up Times
Microsoft has released an update that made their Xbox consoles boot a bit faster. The changes see the boot process go from 20 seconds to 15 seconds for Xbox Series S | X. According to The Verge, Xbox testers recently noticed a slight improvement in the bootup time, with the changes confirmed by the company last week. By creating a shorter bootup animation, Microsoft was able to speed up the boot sequence by roughly 5 seconds quicker than previously. The update benefitted both Xbox S | X consoles and the Xbox One Xbox owners will only be able to benefit from improved bootup times if they set their console to Energy Saver mode instead of Standby mode, meaning that the console will be fully powered off, as opposed to immediately booting up the game after powering on. The Energy Saver mode sav...
HBO Creates an AR App for ‘Game of Thrones” Prequel ‘House of the Dragon’

WarnerMedia even implemented voice recognition so you can command your dragons with Valyrian words you learn through the app, brin...
Eddie Vedder at Lollapalooza ’92: ‘I Think Celebrities Suck’
No one was going to be fooled by the disguise, if you could even call it a disguise — a plain, olive-green WWII-style helmet, with a blond, shoulder-length wig coming out from inside. But Eddie Vedder put it on anyway as we headed out from the backstage area of Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre in Orange County, California, on a warm October afternoon. And no one was fooled. As the gate swung open, squeals started amongst several dozen young fans — female and male — who had gathered hoping for just a glimpse of someone, certainly of him. And here he was, walking out in their midst. An hour ago he’d finished fronting Pearl Jam’s explosive set. It was the final day of Lollapalooza 1992, and Vedder was the man ofthe hour, the man of the tour, the man of the season. I’d been assigned by t...
Djo (Stranger Things’ Joe Keery) Shares New Single “Gloom”: Stream
Djo, the solo music outlet for Stranger Things star Joe Keery, has unveiled the new single “Gloom” from his upcoming second solo album, Decide. The track finds the singer-songwriter resolutely “ready to go” as he lists off a number of irreverent excuses to make an exit. The pulsing, fuzzed-out beat pops and snaps along with Keery’s blunt quips like “Your girlfriend scares me/ She’s got bad breath,” and it all builds up to a bracing end as his way out nears. Stream “Gloom” below. “Gloom” has been preceded by the ebullient mid-June single “Change,” which was revealed along with the announcement of the new album. Decide arrives September 16th via AWAL Recordings and follows Keery’s 2019 solo debut Twenty Twenty. Pre-orders will open on Thursday, July 28th along with the release of t...

According to local Fox affiliate WVUE, Hoobler was found dead at his home in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana on Friday, July 22nd.
