Tyler The Creator Hops Aboard Some Very Cool Boats And Bikes In His New ‘Lemonhead’ Video

by

Tyler The Creator has a new video for Call Me If You Get Lost single “Lemonhead.” Clocking in at about a minute and a half, the brief clip shows Tyler pantomiming playing a tuba (next to an actual tuba player wearing a sailor get-up), driving a speedboat boat through fields (kind of brings to mind images of Luke Skywalker riding his Landspeeder through Tatooine, if you will indulge me for a second), and ultimately wheeling off into the sunset via penny-farthing. As one does!

This is the latest visual offering from Tyler’s sixth studio album. Prior to this, he released the video for the song “Corso” the day after appearing at the 2021 BET Awards to perform “Lumberjack.” Call Me If You Get Lost, which the rapper released last month, became his second consecutive chart-topping album after it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. In his review, Uproxx’s Aaron Williams called Call Me If You Get Lost a “top-level rap album,” writing, “On Call Me If You Get Lost, Tyler is most like himself, free of the artifice that he no longer feels the need to hide behind — and free to finally let his nuts hang, so to speak.”

Watch the video for “Lemonhead” above.

Call Me If You Get Lost is out now via Columbia. Get it here.

Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Pull Up To NYC Studio In Rolls Truck

by

From the looks of things, A$AP Rocky and Rihanna have grown inseparable, as far as they, their fans, and every tabloid in the world are concerned. And, in the world of entertainment, that’s really all there is. For the first time in far too long, fans of the latter can take solace in the fact that she was caught headed to the recording studio out in New York City last night.

The esteemed tandem rolled around New York City in Rocky’s white Rolls Royce Cullinan when they were ultimately caught pulling up to the studio. Mentioned in reference to Saweetie being gifted a Rolls-Royce truck herself, the Cullinan starts from roughly $330,000, so it’s safe to say these two were in for a good time no matter where they were going.

Above all else, there is nothing more promising in the story than the fact that Rihanna’s been caught within even a mile-long radius of a studio. For all we know, she wasn’t even getting in the booth, but it’s best to remain a little optimistic about it.

Most recently, A$AP was seen in the lab with Metro Boomin just this Tuesday. Well aware of his highly-anticipated forthcoming album, All $miles, we can only wait and see what’s to come from these recent studio sessions.

Aside from rolling around town together, the two have been seen on foot far more, with Rihanna caught literally being swept off her own. What are you looking forward to hearing out of this studio visit?

The 29-year-old New Jersey native has always known that his journey would lead to this point, writing songs for some of the biggest artists in the world over the last few years. He’s known for his extensive work with Kanye West, as well as his songs with Pharrell, Ty Dolla $ign, Kirk Franklin, and others. The Grammy-winning artist has already had a prolific career in music, being nominated for his debut project Happy 2 Be Here and winning one for his work on Jesus Is King.

Arriving one day before his Happy 2 Be Here tour tickets go on sale, “Section” is a low-tempo record that combines the vocal talents of two of the most well-respected artists in R&B today. Ant and Kehlani’s voices go perfectly together with the former laying the groundwork in the first verse before Kehlani takes over to close the record. 

“I had a lot of fun working on this record with Kehlani, she is truly such a light in this world,” said Ant about the making of this song. “Never a dull moment! When writing this song we were both thinking about those times where we were stuck on an ex when we were supposed to be living life.”

The Happy 2 Be Here tour kicks off at Lollapalooza this month before continuing with September with dates in Las Vegas, Atlanta, New York City, and more. Check out the dates below.

Quotable Lyrics:

1942 tequila
That shit make me a demon
Put your ankles by the ceiling
You relax and lay the seat back
Dinner time, look where the feast at
Walk of shame, I don’t believe that, don’t get creepy

Marilyn Manson Turns Himself In On Assault Charges

by

At an August 2019 show, Marilyn Manson decided to do what he does best — shock the public. He leaned in and spat all over a professional videographer’s camera.

Gilford, New Hampshire PD told TMZ the alleged victim suffered “no injuries,” but spitting constitutes “unprivileged physical contact” leading to Manson being charged with two misdemeanor simple assault charges.

Manson had apparently been dodging cops since the warrant for his arrest was first issued in October 2019, shortly after the incident. Almost two years later, Manson turned himself in only to be booked and released on personal recognizance bail.

The singer is in the clear for this charge as long as he does not “commit any crimes while on release, won’t have any contact with the alleged victim, and will appear at all of his court hearings” according to TMZ.

This misdemeanor is the least of Manson’s legal concerns as he is facing charges for sexual abuse from four different women who have come forward in recent months, including an ex-girlfriend and former assistant.

Manson shared a statement in response to the earliest claims against him in February, saying, “my intimate relationships have always been entirely consensual with like-minded partners. Regardless of how – and why – others are now choosing to misrepresent that past, that is the truth.”

Haitian Police Kill Four Suspects Linked To President’s Assassination

by

Haitian police forces spared zero time following the assassination of President Jovenel Moise early Wednesday, killing four suspects connected to the President’s plotted death. Two others have been captured and remain in police custody for the time being. In what was described as an “inhuman and barbaric act,” Moise was shot dead by unidentified attackers in his home overnight early Wednesday morning and his wife was also injured inn the shooting.

The suspects involved in the shooting were allegedly speaking Spanish, according to the Haitian Embassy of Canada’s press release following the shooting. The impoverished, crisis-affected Haiti had already been experiencing bouts of politically-charged chaos and violence over recent weeks as an emerging humanitarian crisis continues to threaten the nation. The assassination only pushed the country into further disarray.

According to Leon Charles, the Haitian Police General Director, the four suspects who were killed are described as “mercenaries,” and security forces for the president had engaged in an intense firefight with the president’s suspected killers as they attempted to leave his home following the attack.

“We blocked them en route as they left the scene of the crime,” Charles said in televised comments. “Since then, we have been battling with them. They will be killed or apprehended.”

Bocchit Edmond, the Haitian ambassador to the United States, said the suspects were well-trained mercenaries that hid under the guise of US Drug Enforcement Administration agents when they entered the president’s guarded home. There is a DEA office at the Haitian capital that helps their government with counternarcotics programs. which reinforced the deception involved in the mercenaries’ attack.

Joseph Claude is serving as the interim prime minister for the country, and took on the majority of televised statements following the assassination. He said that the assassins were speaking both English and Spanish, while the majority languages spoken in Haiti are French or Haitian Creole. He urged for calmness amongst citizens as the government enforced a two-week state of emergency in search of the remaining assassins.

“I am calling for calm. Everything is under control,” Claude said. “This barbaric act will not remain unpunished.”
