Ukrainian Pop Star Max Barshik Dedicates Song to Nation’s Fearless Warriors: ‘Don’t F–k With Ukraine’
Ukrainian pop star Max Barshik has a very simple message for anyone interested in taking on his nation’s armed forces: “Don’t F–k With Ukraine.” That’s the refrain of the “Bude Vesna (It Will Be Spring)” singer’s new single, a whisper rap club tune with the simple refrain: “We attack, we don’t play/ Don’t f–k with Ukraine.” The video for the song with the banging techno beat, a female choir singing one of the war’s most famous viral quotes (“Russian warship, go f–k yourself”) and Barshik’s guttural warning features footage of Ukrainian soldiers firing tanks and missiles in the field mingled with more peaceful shots of civilians dancing and celebrating.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers played an emotional set yesterday (May 1) to close the first weekend of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, filling the slot vacated by Foo Fighters following the March 25 death of drummer Taylor Hawkins.

Redveil Comes of Age on learn 2 swim
Most people at rapper-producer redveil’s age are working on an identity outside a prescribed cycle of routines–at school, at work, at home–to ready themselves for the independence and uncertainties of early adulthood. On the Maryland artist’s latest project, learn 2 swim, released on his 18th birthday, this search has been a public as well as a personal journey. He’s overcome struggles with insecurity and self-doubt while attempting to build his own unique sound across the self-produced album. His first album, Niagara, was released in 2020 when he was just 16. An abstract hip-hop mashup of noisy samples and soulful vocal loops with earnest and introspective raps, redveil launched himself into conversation with his older, more established peers–including his personal inspiration Tyler, the ...
Moderat Is Finding Itself Again
As Berliners with techno running through their veins, Moderat is all about how music makes you feel.

Director Sam Raimi Contemplates Tobey Maguire for Fourth ‘Spider-Man’ Film
Following the success of Spider-Man: No Way Home, director Sam Raimi is already looking ahead to a potential fourth film. The most recent movie introduced the original titular webslingers Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it appears that it might not be the last audiences might see them. The addition of these characters sparked a renewed interest in the older films with many fans urging the entertainment company to revive the storylines of Maguire and Garfield’s Spider-Man. Raimi appears to agree with some of these fans after revealing that he would be willing to do so “if there was a great story there.” Raimi, who directed the 2002 Spider-Man and its sequels, spoke to Rolling Stones on the opportunity to bring back Maguire, “My love for the characters ...
DC Comics Has Reportedly Canceled ‘Wonder Twins’ Film
Just months after Warner Bros. Discovery announced that it would adapt the beloved Wonder Twins comic into a live-action DC Comics film, the studio has put a halt on productions, reportedly canceling the project.

While the reason is currently unclear, some have noted that the Warner Bros. and Discovery merger has caused a shift in attention of certain projects. Production for the Wonder Twins live-action was expected to begin in Atlanta, GA on July 5. The announcement was first made in February this year, connecting Black Adam writer Adam Sztykiel to write and direct the film. Riverdale‘s KJ Apa and 1883‘s Isabel May were set to star as t...
