Grimes and Elon Musk Break Up After Three Years Together
Nothing lasts forever: Grimes and her baby’s father Elon Musk have broken up. Page Six confirmed the split with a statement from Musk himself. “We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms,” explained Musk. “It’s mostly that my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to be primarily in Texas or traveling overseas and her work is primarily in LA. She’s staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room.” Grimes and Musk came out as a couple at Met Gala in May 2018. The couple’s son X Æ A-12 was born last year, although they later had to change the baby’s name to X Æ A-Xii comply with California law. Throughout their three-year relationship, Grimes has consistently come to the defense of Musk, one of the richest people on the planet....
BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, Rose & Jennie Have Fun Attempting ‘Lalisa’ Dance Challenge: Watch
Lisa is the third BLACKPINK member to have a solo music career. Jennie was the first of the group to release a solo single in 2018 with the release of “Solo.” Rosé followed suit in March of this year when she dropped R, which featured songs “On the Ground” and “Gone.” The rapper reflected on getting a chance at a solo debut in Rolling Stone‘s video series The First Time. “I think we started [working on the album] around March. At the time, I was like, ‘Is this the beginning? Is it my turn? It’s time for me to shine?’ It felt unbelievable, but it was so great,” Lisa said. “I heard ‘Money’ first, and after that I heard ‘Lalisa.’ Both songs just felt like they were mine. I...

Bill Making Recording Costs Tax-Deductible Added to Congress Budget Package
The HITS Act, which would allow musicians, technicians and producers to deduct 100% of recording expenses up to $150,000 on their taxes in the year they’re incurred, remains unchanged from its previous versions. It was first introduced in the House on July 31, 2020 (followed by a companion bill in the Senate on Dec. 3, 2020), though it failed to pass as part of the last two pandemic relief packages despite intense lobbying from independent music advocates to have it included. It was reintroduced by its original House and Senate sponsors back in March. Under the current tax code, music creators are required to amortize production expenses for tax purposes over the economic life of a sound recording, a period that usually ranges between three and four years. If passed, the HITS Act wou...

Steve Crown – You Are Yahweh
‘You are Yahweh’ is an intricate glorifying stint that Steve Crown folds together to worship and render honour to the Lord Almighty, as it is what he duly deserves. “You are Yahweh”, is an offer in conscious worship that brings the hearts of believers closer together, even as they wield a dense and quality bond from within as they sing in worship; it is a spiritual union that tends to create amongst their hearts as they sing and cry in one voice. ‘You are Yaweh’ is a song that creates that consciousness of God’s mighty power and miracles in one’s heart. His greatness and mercy are what become fillers in your spirit and soul, which is what the Lord request of men, to acknowledge him and to be close to him and seek his face in spirit and truth. Steve Crown’s effort on ‘You are Yahweh’s, lays...

Testimony Jaga ft Frank Edwards – My Evidence
Mr. Testimony Jaga’s ‘My Evidence’, is a gospel street track that was delivered like another regular Nigerian super-star 9ice’s record productions, or like a Mr. Real’s street song that usually keeps the street together in one body basking in their fun and hedonism. However, one can also recognize a next-door rendition of Lil Kesh’s record that calls for street celebration and excitement upon this same Jaga’s delivery which tends to put the body of Christ rejoicing in their fold for victory through Christ. My Evidence pores a great relationship with the street esque but rendered with huge differences that are notable as one factor comes from the essence of the track and lyricism that is tied to what every true gospel track upholds and stands for. Christ’s name becomes lifted up and every t...
KREY Drops Hypnotic Single “Are You Waiting” Ahead of Debut Album
Ahead of the release of his debut album, rising electronic music producer KREY has unveiled its lead single, a spellbinding track called “Are You Waiting.” The song is aptly titled due to its hypnotic sound design, which features airy soundscapes that make time stand still. Inspired by the likes of Madeon, Porter Robinson, and Kaskade, among other dance music pioneers, KREY managed to produce a melodic, synth-laden banger at a bouncy 90 BPM. The drops are clean and kinetic, rife with crisp bass patches and twinkly plucks, and KREY’s technical abilities really shine in the final build, where he automates fluttery arpeggios into a brilliant coda to bring the track home. Akacia also stuns as usual on the topline of “Are You Waiting,” offering a feathery complimen...

Eddie Vedder Debuts New Band, Covers R.E.M., Kings of Leon, Pretenders, Prince and More at Ohana Fest
Eddie Vedder was slated to pull headlining double duty at his Ohana Festival this weekend with a solo set on Saturday and bringing Pearl Jam back to Southern California for the first time since 2013. However, following Kings of Leon’s sudden withdrawal on Thursday to tend to a family matter, Vedder sprung into action. The day was slightly marred by a thunder and lightning warning, but things got cooking with the Regrettes, Black Pumas and a blistering set by My Morning Jacket that was extended due to the Kings’ absence before Vedder took the stage. Previously at Ohana, Vedder performed solo acoustically with help from a few guests on occasion. Not tonight. Enlisting and debuting an all-star group of musicians, including super-producer Andrew Watt, bassist Pino Palladino, Glen Hansard and c...
