Indie-pop band Muna took the stage Monday night (June 13) on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to perform their latest single “Kind of Girl” from their upcoming self-titled album. Playing country acoustic chords accompanied with low violin strings in the background, lead vocalist Katie Gavin sings an emotional song about accepting herself and her personality quirks. “I’m the kind of girl who takes things a little too far / Presses a little too hard / That’s why you left a mark,” she sings. “I’m the kind of girl / Who wants everything she can’t get.” Gavin is aware that she is not everyone’s favorite peach, but it doesn’t mean there won’t be someone out there who will love and accept her for who she is. “I could get up tomorrow / Talk to myself real gentle / Wor...

On his 29th birthday, Gunna has released an open letter claiming his innocence and refuting the RICO Act violation charges he currently faces, marking his first public statement since turning himself in to the Atlanta police last month.

Ann Wilson Is Still the Biggest Badass We Know
Tune into any classic rock radio station, and there is a solid chance that within an hour, you’ll hear one of Heart’s ‘70s-era, melodic, hard-rock hits like “Barracuda,” “Magic Man” or “Crazy on You.” This is why it’s especially exciting that Ann Wilson, Heart’s iconic vocalist and co-writer of those songs has penned original material for her third solo album, Fierce Bliss (released on April 29). Fierce Bliss features seven new songs from Wilson (plus four inventive covers), a significant level up from her two previous albums which only had one original song between them (“Little Problems, Little Lies” on 2007’s Hope & Glory). This return to songwriting started with three originals from Wilson’s 2021 five-song EP, Sawheat 8, one of which, “Black Wing,” is included on Fie...

One fan tweeted, “@lizzo please re-release “grrrls” without the ablist slur. That word is not kind to disabled people. Your music is global and you have a voice folks listen to.
