Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital Even with all his positive accomplishments to date, DaBaby just can’t seem to escape negative energy wherever he touches down.

Source: Phillip Faraone / Getty Whew, that’s a relief, is what some Drake fans are saying after SZA revealed their favorite rapper wasn’t out here being a creep.

Members of Integrity, the Dillinger Escape Plan and More Cover the Misfits’ ‘Halloween II’
Another week, another cover from Two Minutes to Late Night. The latest hardcore cover they tackle is the Misfits’ “Halloween II” —the B-side of the band’s 1981 self-released single, “Halloween.” The rendition brings a solid set of musicians including bassist Liam Wilson (the Dillinger Escape Plan/Azusa), guitarist Abby Rhine (Life’s Question), drummer Danny Lomeli (Incendiary) and Jordan Olds as Gwarsenio Hall with his guitar.

Rhine played in front of a backyard half-pipe outside while Wilson roc...
J Balvin Launches Latest Musician-Backed McDonald’s Meal
After the massive success of McDonald’s Travis Scott Meal, it’s only fair that other musicians hopped on board for the McMadness. For the company’s second musician-backed partnership, Reggaeton artist J Balvin announced Monday that he’s got his own meal making its way to stores. And it’s pretty sweet. The “J Balvin” will feature a Big Mac, medium fries and his own personal favorite OREO McFlurry. Balvin’s meal is available until Nov. 1, and those who purchase via the McDonald’s App can get the McFlurry for free by selecting the offer. Balvin also has some merch in store for McDonald’s employees, as he custom-designed some new T-shirts they can rock behind the counter. But there likely won’t be any McNugget body pillows this time. Balvin may have a Big Mac in his name, but this isn’t e...

Phoebe Bridgers has had an impressive 2020. There have been plenty of accolades and now you can add label boss to her impressive resume.

However, Bridgers told the publication that she’s excited to have her own label — especia...
Led Zeppelin Copyright Suit Won’t Be Heard By the Supreme Court
The contentious back-and-forth suit between Led Zeppelin and the estate of songwriter Randy California won’t be going to the U.S. Supreme Court. On Monday, the Court said that it won’t be hearing the case, leaving in place the March ruling that said that Zeppelin didn’t infringe upon “Taurus,” California’s 1967 song with his band Spirit. The original suit claimed that the intro to Zeppelin’s iconic “Stairway to Heaven” stole from “Taurus.” California, whose real last name was Wolfe, passed away in 1997 and had no hand in the lawsuit. The original lawsuit was filed by journalist Michael Skidmore on behalf of the Randy Craige Wolfe Trust. The Supreme Court didn’t give a reason as to why it was not taking on the case (which is generally pretty normal). The ruling written by the 9th Circu...
