Elon Musk Wants to Bring Vine Back: Report
Elon Musk continues to move fast since officially taking over Twitter, and his latest move is resurrecting Vine. According to a report from Axios, Musk has tasked engineers to focus on a reboot of the once-popular video sharing app that could be ready by the end of 2022. According to Axios, engineers have found Vine’s old code base “needs a lot of work” after not being changed or updated since it was formally shut down by Twitter in 2016. When Vine was active, it became the most-downloaded free app in the iOS App Store. Vine also helped launch the careers of artists like Shawn Mendes, Ruth B, and producer Jay Versace, as well as notorious social media personality Logan Paul. The ByteDance-owned app TikTok has stepped into the void left behind by Vine. In September 2021, TikTok announced it...

Quavo and Takeoff Drop Chaotic “Messy” Music Video
After dropping their joint album Only Built For Infinity Links earlier this month, Quavo and Takeoff have delivered the official music video for one of the project’s lead tracks, “Messy,” directed by Quavo and Daps. In the visual’s opening sequence, a confused Quavo wakes up a sleeping Takeoff inside a vehicle to tell him that he had a dream about “some messy a** s***.” Upon falling back asleep, the two find themselves rapping from inside a Halloween-themed home. And as the title suggests, things quickly get messy: guests begin throwing food at each from across a dining table; a heated card game turns into a screaming match, and a couple argues with each other while children run through the corridors. “Don’t let that broke b**** in ’cause she too messy/Who the f*** them broke boys wit...
