2 Chainz, Lil Wayne Drop Animated ‘Money Maker’ Video
For what may be the best stadium performance since SpongeBob and gang performed at the Bubble Bowl, 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne’s latest animated video for “Money Maker” sees the pair take over an entire football field with the big-band bop. The track — complete with a flood of horns and a commanding drum line — sees the two team up for yet another big-time Tity Boi and Weezy collab. The vibrant clip also sees the songs lyrics flash before the screen, so you couldn’t possibly miss 2 Chainz’ convincing demands to “shake ya money maker,” as the track takes samples from Southern University’s marching band Human Jukebox. It also features the band on the track cover, paying homage to HBCUs. The hit found its way on streaming services Friday after 2 Cha...

Hayley Williams Closes Out Quarantine Covers Series With This Radiohead Classic
Hayley Williams took to social media on Saturday (Aug. 8) to share her latest quarantine cover, an acoustic take on Radiohead’s exquisite bummer ballad “Fake Plastic Trees.” “Green plastic watering can/ For a fake Chinese rubber plant/ In the fake plastic earth/ That she bought from a rubber man/ In a town full of rubber plans/ To get rid of itself,” she croons over simple acoustic guitar after a couple of false starts. “The last of the self-serenades…for a while, anyway,” the Paramore frontwoman wrote alongside the cover, which she posted as a voice memo. “The top requested song throughout my brief career in self-serenadism has been a @radiohead song. {“nid”:”9428406″,”type”:”post”,”...

Musicians Criticize Jeff Bezos’ ‘Willful Blindness’ to Twitch Music Royalties
While testifying at a congressional hearing late last month, Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos admitted that he wasn’t sure whether or not the company pays royalties for the music users stream on Amazon-owned livestreaming platform Twitch (it doesn’t). His response angered artist-run non-profit Artist Rights Alliance, which has sent a letter to Bezos challenging him to pay artists their fair share, as music streaming on Twitch continues to surge. “We were appalled […] by your inability or unwillingness to answer even the most basic question about Twitch’s practices in this regard,” the letter reads. “As Twitch uses music to grow its audience and shape its brand, the company owes creators more than the willful blindness and vague platitudes you offered du...

Zack Snyder Teases Darker Steppenwolf In The “Snyder Cut” Of ‘Justice League’
Source: Warner Bros. Pictures / HBO Max We’re still a while away from finally getting the Snyder cut of the much-bemoaned flop known as Justice League and while we await the debut of black suit Superman, Green Lantern, and of course, Darkseid, Zack Snyder gave fans a sneak peak of how Steppenwolf was originally supposed to look. Over the weekend Snyder continued to tease how his original version of the film was supposed to be (before Joss Whedon took over and turned in an atrocity) and took to Vero to debut a much grittier and rugged version of the film’s main protagonist. Sporting an armor more akin to that of a barbarian than a soldier, the new/old version of Steppenwolf looks way more badass than the lame mother-loving villain in Whedon’s 2017 bomb. Zack Snyder has sha...
Michelle Obama Reveals Struggle With ‘Low-Grade Depression’ On Her Podcast
Source: Netflix / Courtesy of Netflix Last week, Michelle Obama confessed she’s dealing with a form of “low-grade” depression. Between the racial injustice, the pandemic, and the tomfoolery of the Trump administration, she’s struggling to keep it all together. The former first lady revealed all in the second episode of her new podcast on Spotify featuring invited guest Michele Norris, a columnist at the Washington Post. Throughout their conversation, it was discussed how she’s privately managed to navigate some of the most difficult events of the year. The New York Times pulled quotes from the episode. “There have been periods throughout this quarantine where I just have felt too low,” Mrs. Obama said, adding that her sleep was off. “You know, I’ve gone through those emotional highs and ...
