Have you ever wondered what it would be like to headline a music festival? Standing on a stage, with the world’s biggest hits at your fingertips, flashing lights, and a thunderous audience cheering you on?

At this point, it’s industry folklore that some of the most iconic albums of our time were created in isolation.

Because when it comes to birthdays, nobody parties like Drizzy, who somehow manages to find a […]

The Indiana Pacers have hired former Toronto Raptors assistant Nate Bjorkgren as their head coach, the team announced on Tuesday. Bjorkgren spent the last two seasons under Raptors coach Nick Nurse, helping Toronto win its first NBA title in 2018-19. Given that the team followed that up with the league’s second-best regular-season record—resulting in Nurse […]

Backxwash has won the prestigious 2020 Polaris Music Prize for her metal-infused hip-hop album, God Has Nothing To Do With This Leave Him Out Of It.
