For our favorite new songs from emerging artists, check out our Spotify New Sounds playlist. This week, Elton John recruits Eddie Vedder for his lockdown sessions.

With “E-Ticket,” his new track with none other than Eddie Vedder, John goes back to basics. It’s an undeniably fun, classic piano jam from the prolific pair, and Vedder’s presence makes it all the more riveting. Their husky voices sync and blend so well that at times, it’s hard to tell who is who...

Todd Rundgren, Dana Carvey, and Hal Willner in Conversation: From Our 1993 SNL Issue
This story originally appeared in the February 1993 issue of Spin, which was partially written and guest-edited by members of the SNL cast. Read interviews and stories from comedy icons of the era–Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, Tim Meadows, Lorne Michaels and others–in our package of highlighted stories from the issue. The word genius is thrown around ever so loosely nowadays, but in the case of Todd Rundgren, anyone familiar with his work would agree that he fits that category. For almost three decades, Rundgren has been a major originator in the arts, from his early days leading the influential Philly-based band Nazz through his pop hits period (“Hello It’s Me,” “I Saw the Light”), to his pioneering videos in the early...
Lana Del Rey’s 10 Best Songs
In 2011, Lizzie Grant introduced the world to Lana Del Rey with songs like “Video Games” and “Born to Die.” Her offerings somehow sounded both apocalyptic and romantic at the same time. Teens, particularly those of the We Heart It set, instantly ate it up. Since then, Del Rey has evolved past many a Tumblr GIF, cementing her place in the pop canon through carefully-crafted ballads and bangers alike. She’s undertaken purposeful collaborations with contemporary stars and the kids of folk icons. An undeniable aesthetic permeates it all, but beneath the schtick is a truly great songwriter. The industry has paid attention, too; Del Rey’s work has earned her six Grammy nominations. Meanwhile, when it comes to both her opinions and her music, LDR is fairly prolific (for better or for worse)....

Every Wes Anderson Movie Ranked from Worst to Best
Welcome to Dissected, where we disassemble a band’s catalog, a director’s filmography, or some other critical pop-culture collection in the abstract. It’s exact science by way of a few beers. The time, we enter the quirky, warmhearted world of Wes Anderson. This article was originally published in 2018 and has been updated. “I wouldn’t say that I’m particularly bothered or obsessed with detail.” — Wes Anderson The rococo eccentricity and color palette of Grand Budapest Hotel say otherwise. As does the closet full of lovingly photographed and artfully uneven board games in The Royal Tenenbaums. Or the use of a Satyajit Ray score, dusted off and delicately placed in The Darjeeling Limited (in addition to the Louis Vuitton luggage custom made by Marc Jacobs). And what about the left-set place...

On the Ground in Dubai’s Booming Skate Scene
Drenched in sweat, but unfazed by the approximate 40 degree celsius heat, Karim Nassar, Maysam Faraj and Wathek Allal are deciding who skates first with a round of rock, paper, scissors. Faraj is up, reminiscing on his time at summer camp during the mid-90s, where he first met a counselor on a skateboard. “The skateboard was a cheap plastic thing you’d find at your common sports shop. He was cool enough to let me stand on it, which I could barely do,” he remembers. I remember being confused. I asked myself, ‘How can I not stand and balance on this thing? Why is this so hard? I should be able to do this.’ I was humbled and I became obsessed”. “At some point I realized how these brands were just tourists, there to make themselves look cool” Faraj soon went hunting for a board of his own — le...

Issa Rae, BJ The Chicago Kid, Victoria Monét and More on How Insecure “Truly Represents the Creatives” Through Music
Over the past five years, we’ve seen Issa Rae’s iconic Insecure character Issa Dee through it all. Between the break-ups, stalking potential baes on Instagram, and having to furnish a new home with no money to her name, Issa has been a voice of her millennial generation. Amid the ups and downs of adult life, Rae has portrayed a millennial in an all-too-relatable manner, alongside a killer soundtrack. Since the inception of her YouTube series Awkward Black Girl, Rae has aimed to make music “a character” in all of her projects. On HBO’s Insecure, which premieres its fifth and final season this Sunday (October 24th), we see Issa experience wins and losses, with many scenes tied to a specific song. Over the years, Rae, composer Raphael Saadiq and music supervisor Kier Lehman have used the show...
