HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Christian Petersen / Getty While Ray J’s name stays a topic of discussion for various reasons these days, his older and more famous sibling, Brandy has been keeping a low profile for a while now, but it seems like she’s ready to get back out in the spotlight where she belongs.

Bauhaus Share “Drink the New Wine,” First Song in 14 Years: Listen
British goth and post-punk pioneers Bauhaus have released their first new song in 14 years. Check out “Drink the New Wine” below (via Rolling Stone). The new song was inspired by the Surrealist movement and written during lockdown last year, during which the group’s four members (Peter Murphy, Daniel Ash, Kevin Haskins, and David J) shared audio files to construct an exquisite corpse without hearing what the other members had done.

Elvis Portraitist Tommy Kha on Inspiration, Backlash, and What Happened at the Memphis Airport
Pitchfork: So, what happened? When were you made aware that your work had been removed? Tommy Kha: I was made aware that there was something going on. I got an email on March 8, and I had a phone meeting with the UrbanArt Commission on Thursday, March 10. That’s when I was told they would give me a heads up that they were going to move forward to remove the work. At that time, I was made more aware that what was happening that Tuesday kind of grew to something larger. I didn’t really think much of it, because people are free to speak what they want, as long as it doesn’t harm me. But I was reassured that they would let me know before they made any decision, and that if I was open, to talk further with a representative from the airport, at a time when I could choose, which was Wednesday the...
