Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett pay homage to Cole Porter on their Love for Sale tribute album, which officially came out on Friday (Oct. 1).

Grimes Shares New Song “LOVE” About “Online Hate”: Stream
Some of history’s best songs have come out of the wreckage of a breakup. Grimes’ new track “LOVE” is not one of those songs, but it stands as a fascinating peek into the mind of a wounded pop provocateur. She and her baby’s father Elon Musk announced their amicable split last week. Initially, Grimes filtered the breakup through her usual interests and humor, announcing that she and Musk would take joint custody of Jupiter’s moon Europa, where she planned to found a “lesbian space commune.” But jokes aside, the episode has clearly been painful, and Grimes has now moved on to the next stage of modern grief: an overly-earnest Instagram post. “I wrote and produced this song this week in response to all the privacy invasion, bad press, online hate and harassment by paparazzis I’ve experien...
Ozuna Hints That Blackpink, Megan Thee Stallion & DJ Snake Collab is ‘97%’ Complete
A few weeks after debuting his new single “La Funka” at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, Ozuna is ready to drop his next major collaboration. On Thursday (Sept. 30), the award-winning Puerto Rican artist took to Twitter to let fans know that his next song, alongside Blackpink, Megan Thee Stallion and DJ Snake, is “97 percent” complete. “BKP + MTS + SNK + [teddy bear emoji],” the Latin superstar wrote. Fans on Twitter, however, are wondering if the song is with the entire South Korean girl group or just group member Lisa, who although still part of the K-pop phenomenon, debuted her solo project Lalisa earlier this month.

Shakira Says She Was Attacked by Wild Boars
You might think you’ve had a rough year, but look on the bright side: At least you weren’t attacked wild boars.
