Watch Kendrick Lamar’s Medley SNL Performance
Yesterday, Kendrick Lamar stopped by SNL to perform a few hits from his fifth studio album, Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, including “Rich Spirit,” “N95” and “Father Time.” Set in a minimal square room with a light blue spotlight and a white oscillating floor fan, Lamar opened the performance with the calm “Rich Spirit.” What first appears to be a normal silhouette of Lamar due to the spotlight quickly turns into a dancing visual as Lamar remains still while rapping. When Lamar transitions to “N95” the atmosphere matches the energetic track with an array of frenzied lighting effects. Lamar then transformed the space into a dimly lit bedroom for “Father Time.” But to bring the song fully to life, the Compton-born rapper brought out Sampha. As the two perform the emotion-laden track, the...

Watch the Killers Bring Out Bruce Springsteen at Madison Square Garden
The Killers are currently in the home stretch of their Imploding the Mirage tour, and last night (October 1), they brought out a very special guest at New York’s Madison Square Garden. One Bruce Springsteen joined the Killers onstage during their three-song encore, as Consequence of Sound and Rolling Stone point out. Together, they played classic Springsteen cuts “Born to Run” and “Badlands” as well as “Dustland”—their 2021 collaboration that reworks the Killers’ 2008 Day & Age single “A Dustland Fairytale.” Springsteen and the Killers were also joined onstage by saxophonist and E Street Band member Jake Clemons (nephew of the late Clarence Clemons), who played on all three encore tracks. Watch it all happen below. The Killers released Imploding the Mirage back in 2020, followed by Pre...
Shygirl Breaks the Mold With Debut Album ‘Nymph’
On September 30, South London-born musical artist Shygirl released her debut album Nymph. Since jumping on the scene, the singer/DJ has generated considerable buzz due to her energetic electronic hits that channel several elements of fantasy. Now with the artist’s breakout album, she is solidifying herself as not just a newly-minted UK staple, but an international rising star. The 12-track work beginning with “Woe” and closing with “Wildfire” provides a closer glimpse at the artist due to her emotional lyricism and enchantingly multidimensional electronic sound. What also stands out about the work is its profession of confidence and power whether it relates to beauty, sex positivity or vulnerability. From enchanting synths to bold bass sounds, Nymph creates a world of freedom that sonicall...
SNL Kicks Off a New Era with Season 48 Premiere: Review
Saturday Night Live opened its 48th season with its biggest cast changes in decades. With eight cast members departing at various stages of their SNL tenure, and a ninth missing in action but supposedly returning later (Cecily Strong is doing a play in Los Angeles, and—unlike past temporary absences—wasn’t shown in the opening credits), the show is close to peak overhaul level (11 cast members left between seasons 20 and 21). Thee changeover was notable enough to warrant a cold-open sketch all about it, with Peyton Manning (host Miles Teller) and his brother Eli (Andrew Dismukes) offering live commentary on the season’s supposed kickoff: a self-consciously hacky sketch about Donald Trump (James Justin Johnson) and, well, whatever zany characters the writers decide to throw at him in an att...

Springsteen and fellow E Street Band member Jake Clemons appeared during the encore, sitting in for performances of “Badlands” and “Born to Run,” as well as The Killers’ own “A Dustland Fairytale.” The Killers’ Brandon Flowers introduced Springsteen by saying: “Everybody gets a little nervous when their boss shows up for work, right? I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but me and my friends have been sweating bullets up here all night, because The Boss is here. Ladies and gentlemen, Bruce Springsteen.” Advertisement Related Video Earlier this week, Springsteen announced his new album, Only the Strong Survive. Next year, he’ll reunite wit...

Till Digs Into a Deeply Shameful, Deeply American Tragedy: Review
This review is part of our coverage of the 2022 New York Film Festival. The Pitch: The horrific, deeply shameful, and deeply American story of Emmett Till galvanized the civil rights movement with its tragedy: A 14-year-old Black boy from Chicago, visiting relatives in Mississippi, was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered for having the temerity to interact with a white woman, and Emmett’s mother Mamie Till-Mobley (then known as Mamie Till-Bradley) made the momentous decision to have an open-coffin funeral for her son, displaying his body, mutilated by his killers and bloated from being dumped into a river. These images, heavily circulated in Black publications, brought attention to the evils and injustice of U.S. racism — though they were not enough for Till’s killers (who admitted to the cr...
