“Beastie Boys Square” Street Renaming Approved By New York City
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Michael Ochs Archives / Getty One of the most iconic groups ever are about to be immortalized in their hometown. The New York City Council has approved a petition to rename a street to “Beastie Boys Square”. As per Variety The Beastie Boys will receive a very unique distinction on the corner of Ludlow Street and Rivington Street in the lower part of Manhattan. The intersection is a direct nod to the album cover from their seminal album Paul’s Boutique. Even though the idea seems like it should have been a no brainer, the effort has been in the works for about nine years. Back in 2014 the community board first rejected the petition but on Thursday, July 14 the application was finally approved. Council member Christopher Marte expressed his enthusiasm ...

We all hope that this man gets the help he so urgently needs. But, most of all, we lo...

Light in the Attic Records has released another tantalizing piece of Lou Reed and Velvet Underground lore in the form of the earliest known recording of the song “Heroin.” The track will appear on the upcoming archival Reed collection Words & Music, May 1965, due out on Aug. 26.

Eddie Vedder Throws Pearl Jam Fan Out of Zurich Concert for Violent Behavior
No, ma’am, not today. Eddie Vedder was having none of a fan’s violent behavior during Pearl Jam’s recent concert in Zurich and promptly kicked the woman out of the venue. Fans caught the moment on video inside Hallenstadion Zurich when the woman in question apparently started hitting the man in front of her over the head for filming the band’s performance of “Animal.” “Turn the lights on, please,” Vedder asked the stage crew after pausing the song. “Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey — I saw the whole thing! I know, it was annoying you. You were bummed out ‘cause he was filming the whole time. Has it been the whole show or just now? Just now when I came over? Was it the whole time?

Every Kate Bush Album, Ranked
In the U.K., Kate Bush has been a major star since her chart-topping debut single, 1978’s “Wuthering Heights,” and has grown into a beloved national institution over the last few decades. In America, she’s closer to a cult artist who reached her peak of mainstream popularity with 1985’s gold-selling Hounds of Love, which spawned her only Top 40 single, “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God).” Bush, who’s influenced a couple generations of indie rockers and art pop subversives, is beloved by everyone from Solange to Outkast’s Big Boi. She’s been an esteemed collaborator of artists like Prince and Peter Gabriel, and covers of her songs have been hits for Maxwell and Meg Myers. But she doesn’t always get her proper respect: This year, she was nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...
The Kids Are Alright: 7-Year-Old Prodigy Caleb Hayes Wants To Be Slipknot’s Dummer
Whether you’ve seen him on Ellen or witnessed one of his viral videos, it’s undeniable that seven-year-old Caleb Hayes channels a John Bonham-esque power behind his kit. His penchant for heavy metal likely came from watching his parents play in a local cover band, where they recreated hits from AC/DC, Led Zep and Metallica around their native Cumbria, England. As his mother Kim recalls, he was just a toddler when he showed signs of wanting to play the drums, just like his drummer dad. “Caleb would have been two when he started to come and watch us in rehearsals, but he’d already started at around 15 months playing with pencils and anything he could use as drum sticks around the house,” she says. “That’s when we knew he had a keen interest in making lots of noise, haha!” Caleb’s parent...

Digital Extremes Teases New Free-to-Play MMO ‘Soulframe’
Digital Extremes — makers of Warframe — have just teased its latest project called Soulframe. This free-to-play MMO will focus on heavy and slow melee combat combined with a story involving humans intertwined with the natural world with themes of “nature, restoration, and exploration.” And while the team has pointed to Princess Mononok and The NeverEnding Story as inspiration, they did emphasize that the “Soul” in Soulframe does not mean that it will try to replicate the direction of From Software’s Souls series (Elden Ring). Steve Sinclair of Digital Extremes told Washington Post, “I think it certainly isn’t an inspiration for the initial ideas or what we wanted to do. Ironically, other titles that were maybe borrowing from Warframe might have been some sort of reverse influence. But Elde...
