GUNSHIP’s “The Video Game Champion” Featured in Fall Guys Season 4 Trailer
The popular battle royale game Fall Guys recently debuted a trailer for its fourth season, revealing a retrowave theme. With an excess of neon and plenty of 80s looks featured throughout, what better group to soundtrack the retrowave-inspired content than GUNSHIP. As many fans of the band and the niche genre may have noticed, the adorable footage of jellybean people playing games was set to the band’s appropriately-titled 2018 single, “The Video Game Champion.” While the video starts out with the original theme song of the game, about ten seconds in it shifts gears to the synthwave classic. Aside from the genre, the song famously features lyrics about video games, making it quite possibly the perfect companion to the game. Surprisingly, this is not the first tim...
Juliet Ibrahim: I once suffered depression
Popular Ghananian actress Juliet Ibrahim has opened up that she once battled depression. Ibrahim made this known when she spoke to newsmen on Saturday. She said: “Yes, I have once battled with depression. I am a woman of many stories and that is what makes me who I am. I have had a lot of experiences that I felt I had to share with my ever-growing fan base. Writing my memoir was very therapeutic for me. I honestly did not realise how strong I was until I put together all my experiences in the memoir. I have had experiences that would probably break the average person but I survived. I drew inspiration from the fact that many African women share similar stories and have a lot in common but sadly, have no medium to share these stories. It is always a case of women being judged or stigmatised...

The “Do It” duo also shared a Q&A on Twitter, celebrating the “dream come true” partnership. “What do we have most in common?” Chloe asked in the three-minute clip, before her twin sister Halle cheekily replied, “Our faces!” “I remember we’d always be obsessed with the iconic face splash, and now, what if we did that? And we could, because we’re the new faces!” Chloe gushed. “We were on tour for three or four years, back-to-back almost,” Halle added of her skincare journey, “And my skin would really just be like, ‘Girl, what are you doing? Where are you?’ So I really kind of got on a rhythm of taking care of my skin and knowing what works for me.” See the full Q&A below, and ...

Watch Adventure Club’s Christian Srigley Chug a Grilled Chicken Smoothie
Why did the chicken cross the road? Probably to avoid Adventure Club‘s Christian Srigley, who once chugged a grilled chicken smoothie. Because he was “short on protein for the day,” Srigley hilariously plopped two chicken breasts into a blender and filled it with tap water. At one point, it looks like he also drops in a dollop of stevia, a natural sugar substitute. What ensues is an absolute demolition of poultry purée that will make your blood curdle. It’s no surprise that a slew of the duo’s EDM contemporaries hopped in the tweet’s reply section in utter shock and dismay. “im reporting this account,” wrote ARMNHMR, followed by a simple “I’m so angry” by Blanke, both of which are set to ap...

Jasmine Harrison, Youngest Woman to Row Solo Across Any Ocean, on How Music Powered Her Boat
Jasmine Harrison is not a musician. She has never picked up a microphone or downloaded music production software. She’s only danced to one song in her entire life, albeit an embarrassing one. But after making history as the youngest woman to row solo across any ocean, she is living proof that music can propel anyone to do extraordinary things. Accompanied by nothing but a playlist and the mesmeric, repetitive splosh of her oar slicing the ocean’s surface, Harrison, 21, traversed the Atlantic Ocean in 70 days, 3 hours and 48 minutes. However, with a bubbly naiveté rarely found in a barnstorming, record-breaking heroine, you wouldn’t know it when speaking to her. And after the enormity of her accomplishment finally sunk in, even she can’t believe it was her....
The Final Installment of Richie Hawtin’s Prada Runway Music Has Arrived
High fashion houses have been calling on dance music producers to spin at their runway shows for years, such as Daft Punk for Louis Vuitton and Justice for Dior Homme. Minimalist techno pioneer Richie Hawtin is no stranger to this trend, first crafting lengthy mixes for Calvin Klein in 2017. He has now released “Inxtro,” the last installment of four tracks specially composed for Prada‘s 2021 shows. The mixes, released under Hawtin’s Plastikman alias, were commissioned by co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, the latter of whom tapped Hawtin while he was still with Calvin Klein. “Inxtro” was created for the Fall / Winter 2021 Womenswear collection. The show debuted at Milan Fashion Week on February 25th, 2021. “[It] evolves t...
