<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-21T03:10:32+00:00“>April 20, 2021 | 11:10pm ET Queens, New York indie rockers UV-TV are back with another sunny burst of ’90s-style guitar pop.

2022 BMW M3 and M4 Competition xDrive AWD First Look: x(Drive) Marks the M Spot

See all 58 photos In other words, this means these AWD additions offer a mighty 503-hp from the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter I-6 that resides under each models’ hood. It also means an eight-speed automatic serves as the sole gearbox on offer. Want to row your own gears? Then you’ll have to forgo all-wheel-drive and stick with the 473-hp engine that powers run-of-the-mill (non-Competition) iterations of the 2021 M3 and M4. BMW, however, fits both the M3 Competition and M4 Competition with a set of paddle shifters in order to afford some control of the self-shifting transmission. Opting for all-wheel-drive noticeably improves these two BMWs’ straight-line performance, too. Whereas the rear-drive M3 Competition and M4 Competition need a manufacturer-estimated 3.8 seconds...

Toyota bZ4X Concept First Look: Finally Kicking Off Toyota’s Electric Future

It’s been a long time coming, but we’re finally getting our first look at Toyota’s electric future. The Toyota bZ4X Concept is the first of seven dedicated battery-electric vehicles that will live under the new “bZ” moniker, and while some details such as its range, battery size, and charging capabilities have not been disclosed, it represents an important stepping stone for Toyota’s future. If you think the concept’s name sounds like a computer password, don’t be fooled. That’s because “bZ” stands for Beyond Zero. We’ll be seeing that badge across multiple models in the next few years, much like how “GR” (Gazoo Racing) is now included in the names of the Supra and 86 sports cars. If this concept looks...

Aloe Blacc Reflects on Unreleased Avicii Collabs in Live Tribute to Late Producer

Upon this meeting, Bergling shared a song with Blacc called “Black and Blue,” which was written by Mac Davis, the recently deceased country legend who’d also contribute to “Wake Me Up.” While “Black and Blue” was never released, Blacc did perform it live during Avicii’s iconic 2013 performance at Miami’s Ultra Music Festival, where the debut of “Wake Me Up” was famously booed by the audience. “We got onstage and the whole audience is expecting exactly what they’d seen all day before — lasers and confetti cannons and smoke and pyro and girls in bikinis dancing on turntables,” Blacc recalled of that show. “Tim came out with three to four musicians, and we kind of just performed live music at an ED...

Ted Nugent, Who Once Dismissed COVID-19, Tests Positive for Virus

Rocker Ted Nugent is revealing he was in agony after testing positive for coronavirus — months after he said the virus was “not a real pandemic.” “I thought I was dying,” Nugent says in a Facebook Live video posted Monday. “I literally could hardly crawl out of bed the last few days,” adding: “So I was officially tested positive for COVID-19 today.” In the video shot at his Michigan ranch, the “Cat Scratch Fever” singer repeatedly uses racist slurs to refer to COVID-19 and reiterates his previous stance that he wouldn’t be getting the vaccine because he claims wrongly that “nobody knows what’s in it.” You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.
