The Weeknd is a self-proclaimed superfan of American Dad, and in May he guest-starred on the show in an episode he co-wrote with Joel Hurwitz. “A Starboy is Born” saw the “Blinding Lights” singer portray a fictionalized version of himself, but most importantly he played a version of himself that also happens to be a virgin.

At the halfway point of 2020, it’s difficult to reflect on anything at all, including the music we love. It’s like the world has turned upside down but all we can do is hope that, on the other side of everything that’s happening, we’d be closer to seeing a world where everyone’s human rights are […]

The show must go on. The 2020 BET Awards are being held virtually tonight with Amanda Seales handling the hosting duties for the ceremony, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary. “I need to be thoughtful and I always am, but really making sure that I’m not taking anything for granted in terms of what this stage means at this time.

Doja Cat was the subject of controversy last month after landing at the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Say So,” and now she’s trying to put the situation in the past yet again. Footage of Doja in group chats filled with alleged alt-right types surfaced online, while an old song saw her […]

The exhaustingly long history of art-averse political figures missing the point of musical expression entirely continues in 2020 with the Trump campaign’s use of the Panic! at the Disco hit “High Hopes.” In case you missed it, and hopefully you did, the Trump team used the 2018 Pray for the Wicked single at a recent gathering of dumbfucks […]

Paul Chin’s music hits that spot—weighty with bass but still gossamer, tangled with minimal drum and bass and pierced with the kind of delicately strung, distant-sounding synth that makes your heart ache. If you have a honey at home, this is the music for getting close with the lights low. Chin’s latest EP is the type […]

In honor of Juneteenth, Beyoncé surprised fans with her new song “Black Parade” late Friday night. The track, produced by Derek Dixie, is a celebration of Blackness.
