IRON MAIDEN’s BRUCE DICKINSON Officially Invites You To ‘Belshazzar’s Feast’
British heavy metal legends IRON MAIDEN have released a video message inviting their fans to the “Belshazzar’s Feast”. “Belshazzar’s Feast” is the story of the writing on the wall in the Bible, and IRON MAIDEN fans have been speculating that the band has been teasing the announcement of its 17th album, possibly to be titled “Writing On The Wall”. In the 34-second video message posted to MAIDEN‘s social media earlier today, singer Bruce Dickinson can be seen wearing a “Belshazzar’s Feast” t-shirt while standing at the top level of a majestic-looking theater and telling the viewers: “July the 15th.

TRIUMPH’s Long-Awaited Documentary To Be Released This Fall
TRIUMPH drummer Gil Moore spoke to Dr. Music about about the forthcoming first-ever feature documentary about the band’s dramatic career. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “It’ll be [out in Canada] this fall. Will it come out in [the rest of North] America at the same time? I’m not sure. Canada, it’ll be fourth quarter this year, for sure. If it’s simultaneous in America, then it’ll be the same time. And if not, my guess would be first quarter of 2022.” As for which platform the documentary will land on for its U.S. release, Moore said: “That’s to be determined. In Canada, it’s on free TV — on Bell Media, which is the biggest television network in Canada. So it’ll be on free TV. I’m not sure how many ...
Drake’s Date Night At Dodger Stadium Discovered by The Press
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Kevork Djansezian / Getty If there’s anything to be said about Drake, it’s that he knows how to swing for the fences when it comes to charming the ladies. A big recent example comes courtesy of the rapper who had a date night in a unique location – Dodger Stadium. While the Los Angeles Dodgers were on the road playing a series against the Miami Marlins this past Thursday (July 8th), the “Certified Lover Boy” took advantage and rented the entire stadium out to serve as the setting for an intimate date night with model Johanna Leia. A helicopter for local news network ABC7 flying over the stadium at Chavez Ravine captured the two as they sat by the dugout along the third-base side of the field. From the looks of the video, the table was decked out to the hi...

John Boyega Replaces Jonathan Majors In War Drama ‘892’
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: WENN.com / WENN John Boyega rightfully gets mentioned as one of the top Black actors of his generation, but there were some assumptions that the top producers and directors in the film industry might be overlooking him due to his outspoken nature. Fans of Boyega will be elated to know that the Nigerian-British actor will grace screens in the upcoming war drive 892, replacing Jonathan Majors presumably due to a scheduling conflict. In an exclusive report from The Hollywood Reporter, Majors was set to appear as a frazzled Marine veteran returning to civilian life in the Abi Damaris Corbin-directed indie feature. However, Majors couldn’t commit to filming as he’s currently set to appear in the third upcoming film in the Ant-Man franchise alongside Paul Rudd,...

Bella Shmurda, Fully Understands Sonic Fluidity – High Tension 2.0, EP Review
Shmurda has found his star power and he has grown hotter than ever. High Tension 2.0, takes you into a crystal clear picture of how he morphed from the beginning of the initial creation of High Tension 1.0 a year ago, as this follow-up sequel designs him as a true star who finally understands his sonic fluidity and how to make it beyond measure appeal deliberately. He delivers alone and it was good. With the creation of pop-infused “Party Next Door” that was released off the project a few days ago, alongside “World”, and “Rush” some months back, Shmurda becomes a full-fledged singer with confirmations of his art staking an audience a glimpse of introspection about the world he comes from and the Lamba in between his artistry. It is wonderful. ALSO READ: “UY Scuti” Interpolates With A Speci...
