Blue Rojo’s Sad Boy Blues Result in a Colorful Debut
Blue Rojo and his sad boy album are pushing boundaries in Latin pop music. The Mexican-American singer reckons with an unrequited queer romance in his debut album, Solitario, that was released on November 17. Blue Rojo dances with the darker side of the genre through elements of emo, punk, reggaetón, trap, and trance music. “I was so in love with this straight man who was not giving me anything,” he tells SPIN over Zoom from a Mexico City coffee shop. “It was kind of toxic and dramatic, but the Blue Rojo influence is there to make it into a spiritual journey to overcome the heartbreak.” While new artists align with major labels in hopes of getting to the point of releasing an album, Blue Rojo released Solitario just two months after signing with Universal Music Group. It was his moody LP t...

Diddy Teams Up With That Rony Seikaly To Release A House Music Track
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: David Becker / Getty If there’s one thing to be said about Diddy, it’s that he doesn’t turn down unique pathways to create hits.

Peacock’s Dramatic Reimagining of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Gets First Teaser Trailer: Watch
We all know the story about how Will Smith’s life got flipped-turned upside down… or, do we? Today, Peacock has shared the first trailer for Bel-Air, a forthcoming dramatic reimagining of the beloved ’90s sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. While the original series — loosely based on Smith’s own upbringing in West Philadelphia — poked fun at the fish-out-of-water adventures of a working-class teen assimilating to a wealthy suburb of Los Angeles, Bel-Air aims to dive deeper into the inherent conflicts and biases of such an upheaval. It’s slated to arrive sometime in 2022. With Smith himself executive producing, Bel-Air stars rookie Jabari Banks as Bel-Air’s new Fresh Prince. While there are plenty of nods to the original show, which aired from 1990 to 1996, this reimag...

Call it Mission Impawsibble: Superman’s dog Krypto teams up with a ragtag band of shelter pets to save the Justice League in the new trailer for DC League of Super-Pets. The preview opens with Krypto (Dwayne Johnson) attempting to wake his out-of-this-world owner Clark Kent (John Krasinski) for a super walk. We find out that while Krypto is loyal, kind, and capable of flight, he has trouble relating to more Earthly dogs, leaving him somewhat lonely.

Microsoft Proves it Tried to Buy Nintendo Back in 1999
Before Xbox was created, Microsoft tried to acquire Nintendo. In celebration of the popular console’s 20th-anniversary, the tech and gaming giant has created a virtual museum for fans to look back on some of the most special moments of its history. Embedded within that treasure trove is a letter revealing that Microsoft actually tried to acquire Nintendo back in 1999 before it developed its own Xbox console. While the letter itself is largely blocked by a big chunk of text, you can still gather a few details from it. Microsoft ultimately met with Nintendo’s president at the time, Hiroshi Yamauchi, along with the legendary game designer Genyo Takeda, and vowed to “make Dolphin the best video game [console],” also eventually known as the GameCube. “Steve [Ballmer, Microsoft’s former CEO] mad...

‘Battlefield 2042’ Promises to Fix Launch Issues With Two Big Updates
Despite launching less than a week ago, Battlefield 2042 has quickly become one of the worst-rated games on Steam, amassing almost 30,000 negative reviews in the span of just days.
