But the film also surprised hardcore comic book fans by accurately bringing creators Mark Millar and John Romita Jr Continue →
Much to his consternation, Kanye West has never won the Grammy for Album of the Year … which is why we can’t even begin to imagine how he feels about the Best Recording Package award. After all, he’s never even been nominated for that one.
True, Watch The Throne did pick up a nod a few Grammys ago, but it was ‘Ye’s creative partner Virgil Abloh who scored the honor (according to the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, the award is given out to art directors) Continue →

Earlier this year, M.I.A. said that her label, Interscope, refused to release her Matangi album because it was “too positive,” and had instructed the strident singer to “darken it up a bit.”
Well, it appears she listened, because on Monday (June17) night, she unveiled the first single from the record, “Bring The Noize,” and, well, it most certainly is dark, a knotty mix of chopped vocals, booming beats, pounding percussion and ominous synths that just builds and builds, until it eventually topples over onto itself Continue →

On Tuesday (June 18), Mayer premiered a brand-new single, “Paper Doll,” and while it’s nowhere as scathing as “Dear John” — i.e. the phrase “dark twisted games” is not used — well, it certainly appears to be a direct response to Swift’s song Continue →
