LISTEN: David Adam Byrnes Turns the Traditional Love Ballad ... - Taste of Country

Image
It's been a bit of a chaotic week for David Adam Byrnes. "We literally just got done getting everything out of the house last night," he tells Taste of Country in a new interview, talking about his move with his fiancée to a brand new home. "If we sit still too long, we get bored." The Texas country music hitmaker laughs, but the man seems to be speaking the truth. This is a hectic and exciting moment in both his personal and professional life, and he couldn't imagine it any other way. "There is no rest for the weary," explains Byrnes, who scored his seventh straight No. 1 single, "One Honky Tonk Town," last year. "I waited a long time to be this busy." He also waited a long time to find his fiancée Amanda, who helps put passion into Byrnes' new single "She Don't." But the song came along long before she came along. "I'm ...

Red Rose soundtrack: Song list for horror series on Netflix - Radio Times

Image
Horror series Red Rose has landed on Netflix after originally airing on BBC Three last year, introducing a new audience to the harrowing plot, which revolves around a group of teenagers living in Bolton and an insidious app that appears to drive them to commit increasingly disturbing acts. Mirroring the hectic coming-of-age journey is a chaotic soundtrack, which features a variety of iconic tracks from several different eras, but chiefly the 1990s. These include a bizarre Barbie Girl remix (originally played by Aqua) that changes the upbeat original song into a sombre choral version as well as a solemn cover of Blue (Da Ba Dee). So, if you're wondering which other songs feature in Red Rose, which comes to our screens courtesy of the makers of Sex Education, read on to find out.

The Best Current Hip-Hop Songs Under Two Minutes - XXLMAG.COM

Image
Let's face it, social media has ruined people's attention spans. This has had a big affect on music. In turn, mostly gone are the days of lengthy rap tracks that extended on for four-five minutes or more, with few exceptions like DJ Khaled's "God Did" featuring Jay-Z cracking the code. While many of hip-hop's most memorable early tracks were protracted party cuts, the genre has always featured some undersized gems. Every hip-hop fan can think of that one banger or two (or three or four or five) that they feel the artist shorted them on by making the song shorter than the average cut. This used to be the exception and not the rule. Nowadays, the three verse-three chorus format has been shortened significantly, with two verses and slighter running times being the more prevalent. In 2017, Lil Pump's "Gucci Gang," which clocks in at 2:05, became the shortest song to crack the Billboard Hot 100 chart since Dickie Goodman's "Mr. Jaws," wh...

"Unmistakably Black": Kelela is a liaison between the worlds within ... - Mixmag

Image
Her six year gap between 'Take Me a_Part, the Remixes' and 'Raven' was spent, in part, ingesting knowledge to help her make sense of her experiences as a Black femme, both in music and the wider world. She parted ways with her business manager and – amicably – her publisher. She pulled together a resource featuring books ranging from Algorithms of Oppression by Safiya Umoja Noble, to podcasts like Seeing White , that is now sent out to every would-be Kelela collaborator; the New York Times refers to it as the "syllabus for the university of her mind". The Will to Change , an examination of masculinity by radical Black feminist bell hooks, was a significant influence on 'Raven''s lyrical content; Kelela listened to the audiobook while writing in her signature style, which prizes emotive specificity ("One of the reasons I love Joni Mitchell - she's so good at writing out a nuanced thing we all saw but no one ever pointed to'") ove...

Becky G: Photos From Billboard Women in Music Shoot – Billboard - Billboard

Image
The September day that Becky G learned she had scored her first No. 1 as a solo artist on Billboard 's Latin Airplay chart, with "Bailé Con Mi Ex," she woke up her fiancé, the soccer star Sebastian Lletget, with tears in her eyes. "He was like, 'Is everything OK? Why are you crying?' " she remembers. "A lot of people like to say I'm only successful because of my collaborations. To be able to prove myself as an artist and carry my own weight was important for me. To show the world that whichever way, collaborations or alone, I'm good." That solo feat is just one of many points of pride for the 25-year-old Mexican American artist and businesswoman, born Rebbeca Marie Gomez, these days. In 2022, she earned her first No. 1 on the Latin Pop Albums chart with the 14-track Esquemas , and another album — her first regional Mexican set — is due to arrive later this year. Come April, she'll have "a h...
