JID and fellow ATLien Anycia star in a ghetto fairy tale in the video for “Sun,” from JID’s new album, God Does Like Ugly.
The video opens similarly to The Princess Bride with a woman reading a fairy tale to her young children. However, she’s surprised by the book they request, which opens to reveal a modern tour of the Atlanta streets JID and Anycia grew up on. The two rappers display some solid chemistry, with JID’s hyperactive delivery bouncing nicely off of Anycia’s laconic flow, and both finding fascinating pockets in the slinky beat from Christo, Childish Major, and Jetsonmade.
Alongside fellow GDLU standouts like “Community” with Clipse, “Glory,” “Sk8” with Ciara and Earthgang, and “WRK,” “Sun” continues to demonstrate JID’s versatility and rap virtuoso, making God Does Like Ugly a sleeper pick for one of 2025’s best rap albums.
In addition to appearing at Outkast’s upcoming induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, JID is currently enlightening fans across North America about his impressive new album on his God Does Like World Tours spin, which runs through December 15 in New York, before hopping the pond for its European and Australian dates next spring.

God Does Like Ugly is out now via Dreamville/Interscope. You can find more info here.
The weather’s turning, the holidays are creeping up, and music is how everyone gets in the spirit. But we’re not just listening in our cars on long drives or through headphones while shopping — we’re watching. YouTube and connected TV are where holiday music dominates, soundtracking parties, online shopping marathons, and last-minute gift-wrapping sessions.
Research shows that, starting in mid-November, UPROXX managed holiday channels on YouTube begin to surge. By December, they explode. Videos featuring beloved artists like Michael Bublé, Sia, Ed Sheeran, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra see up to 1500% more views than their yearly averages. Our channels with deep holiday catalogs see substantial spikes in viewership during the winter window (Michael Buble’s channel sees a 912% viewership jump and 1870% watch time surge in December) proving that even in the era of on-demand everything, nostalgia still wins.
Viewers are streaming everywhere too: families gather in living rooms on smart TVs, co-viewing the classics; offices are filled with pop-infused holiday jams; and parties, game nights, and virtual meetups are all underlined by visual playlists that have become as much a part of the ritual as the eggnog and mistletoe. You can see it in the numbers:
– Sia’s “Snowman” has pulled in more than 357 million YouTube views
– Michael Bublé’s “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” is nearing 150 million
– Ed Sheeran and Elton John’s more recent “Merry Christmas” clocks in above 90 million watches.
– Coldplay’s “Christmas Lights” and Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s “Christmas Canon” continue to dominate as well, bridging pop, rock, and cinematic holiday drama.
These songs don’t just get played, they get put on repeat, the soundtrack for countless seasonal get-togethers.
The Takeaway
UPROXX sits at the center of this seasonal surge, with our exclusive access to Warner Music artists whose channels collectively hit 200 million+ monthly views in-season and a quarter of all those views happening on CTV — the biggest screen in the house. That audience spans almost every age demo and gender, splitting evenly between male/female listeners (52/48) with a reach driven by Millennial music lovers (25-44 year-olds) while spanning from Gen Z TikTok-savvy fans to nostalgic Boomers.
Holiday music is broadly enjoyed, a shared viewing ritual, and one of the most content-safe, emotionally impactful spaces in media.
Whitney’s next few months are about to be busy. The duo has a new album, Small Talk, out this week, and after the release, they’ll presumably be getting ready for their world tour that kicks off in February 2026.
Ahead of all that, though, they’ve shared “Evangeline,” a new song and the album’s only collaboration (with Madison Cunningham). The band’s Julien Ehrlich says of the song:
“The most crucial moment of writing ‘Evangeline’ came when, after weeks of failed experiments, we leaned into the theatricality of the chorus. Max put midi timpanis and string pads underneath the vocals and the whole sentiment of the song clicked into place for us. In hindsight it was probably the main instance where having a producer in the room could have led us to the finish line a bit quicker but nevertheless we got there. It wasn’t until almost a year later that we had the idea to make it a duet and we are beyond grateful that we got to feature Madison Cunningham as the other half of the vocal. To say that this song is special to us is an understatement.”
Cunningham also offered a statement:
“I’m a genuine fan of Whitney. When the band sent me this song, it was a no brainer that I wanted to sing on it. It’s not often that I’m stopped in my tracks by a song. In fact, the sound of this whole record from front to back is staggering to me. It’s the most beautiful wall of sound where every piece is considered, and the through line is clear. My memory is colored with it being one of the easiest, most joyful sessions.”
Listen to “Evangeline” above. Below, find the Small Talk cover art and tracklist, as well as the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Gunna is held hostage in his latest visual, but he doesn’t seem too stressed out about it. In the video for “WGFT” with Burna Boy, the inaugural Uproxx Visionary is tied up and taken to a second location by a group of gorgeous women, ending up in the sort of dungeon that suggests the kind of torture he might end up wanting more of. The video was directed by Spike Jordan and shot in London.
“WGFT” is the latest single from Gunna’s new album, The Last Wun, which also spawned videos for “Won’t Stop” and “Just Say Dat.” Later this month, Gunna kicks off his Wun World Tour promoting the album, which will take him across North America, South Africa, Australia, and to Europe and the UK. Over the course, he’ll headline festivals such as Afronation, Milk & Cookies, and Rolling Loud. You can see the full schedule below.

Three decades later and the Scream franchise is still going. There were a couple decade-long breaks in the mix, but regardless, we have a new one, Scream 7, on the way (after some bumps in the road) and it’ll be the third film in four years.
In a sense, the series is going back to its roots here: Kevin Williamson is directing, and while it’s his first time leading a Scream film, he’s written or co-written a bunch of the movies, including the first two. Speaking of OG’s, David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and Matthew Lillard are all back for the new film, too.
Ahead of the movie’s release, keep reading for everything you need to know before it hits theaters.
Plot
The logline reads, “When a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has built a new life, her darkest fears are realized as her daughter (Isabel May) becomes the next target. Determined to protect her family, Sidney must face the horrors of her past to put an end to the bloodshed once and for all.”
“I was really excited to work with Kevin Williamson again. I mean, he’s the writer of Scream, and he’s directing this one. It’s a really great 360 moment. I can’t really say too much about the movie, but I was really excited to work with Kevin. We’ve had such a history, and he wrote the original and created this entire world, and he just knows it better than anyone.”
Cast
The movie stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Matthew Lillard, Mason Gooding, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Scott Foley, Joel McHale, Anna Camp, Mckenna Grace, Isabel May, Michelle Randolph, Ethan Embry, Mark Consuelos, Jimmy Tatro, Celeste O’Connor, Asa Germann, and Sam Rechner.
Lillard said to ComingSoon.net, “It’s like old friends, right? And Neve’s on set, and working with Neve and seeing her is great. I think that we’re all really hopeful that… look, I think the journey continuing, I think fans are gonna be excited. It’s got that vibe of like old school Scream, and so I just think we’re all really hopeful that we’re building what the fans will love and appreciate.”
Release Date
The film is set to hit theaters on February 27, 2026.
Kehlani’s new single “Folded” was already one of the singer’s most successful songs when they released the Homage Pack remix EP in late October. Thanks to Kehlani’s commitment to seeing the song’s release cycle all the way through, though, the Bay Area singer has their first-ever Billboard Hot 100 top ten appearance.
Originally released in June, followed by the “(Un)folded” remix in July, and powered by a range of remixes, cover versions, and fan-made videos on social media, “Folded” has reached the No. 7 spot on the latest chart update, after a total of 20 weeks. It last landed at No. 14, jumping seven spots to reach its latest milestone. On Monday (November 3), Kehlani performed the track on Jimmy Kimmel Live! after telling fans via her social media that her “gratitude is endless.”
While “Folded” is Kehlani’s first top ten single, the Bay Area native is no stranger to the chart, racking up 18 Hot 100 hits over the course of a 15-plus-year career. “Folded” tied Kehlani’s previous longest-running stay on the Hot 100 via their 2018 Cardi B collaboration “Ring“; their latest collab with Cardi, “Safe,” from the rapper’s long-awaited second album, Am I The Drama?, released earlier this year, peaked at No. 26, and has been on the chart for six weeks. Kehlani’s last highest-charting solo track was 2016’s “Gangsta,” which peaked at No. 41 and spent 12 weeks on the chart.
You can watch Kehlani’s “Folded” performance from Jimmy Kimmel Live! above.
Fans remember that back in the day, Allison and Katie Crutchfield (Waxahatchee) were in the band P.S. Eliot together. They’ve since gone off to do other things, but they just reunited with a surprise new band, Snocaps, and a surprise new self-titled debut album, which is out now. It was teased at the time that tour dates would be announced, and now, they have.
It’s a quick run in early December, with two nights each at Chicago’s Thalia Hall, Los Angeles’ Teragram Ballroom, and New York’s Bowery Ballroom. Pre-sale tickets go on sale on November 5 at 10 a.m. local time (access using the password “COAST”) and the general on-sale follows November 7 at 10 a.m. local time. More information is available on the band’s website.
There’s no indication whether MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook, who performed on the album, will perform on the tour.
Per a press release, after the tour, the Crutchfields will “put the project on ice for the foreseeable future.” As Katie put it, though, “Allison and I have been, in some way, shape or form, doing this together for over 20 years,” so future collaborations are certainly in the cards.
Check out the tour dates below.

12/02 — Chicago, IL @ Thalia Hall (with Graham Hunt)

Redux is out 1/23/2026 via Domino. Find more information here.
Fred Again.. is a machine as he’s in the midst of touring the world and gradually unveiling his new batch of USB songs. It feels like there’s a new track from him every day, so unsurprisingly, here’s another fresh one, the just-released “Talk Of The Town.”
For this one, Fred teamed up with Sammy Virji and Reggie. It apparently came together very quickly: On Instagram, Fred wrote of the song:
“some songs i work on take months or even years for me to feel happy with them, this is one of those ones that was about 27 minutes. basically 3 elements and they jus felt good from the jump and didnt stop feeling good so here we are!”
Fred also recently posted about how dealing with fame has been as of late, saying, “yes 1 hundreedddd percent theres a lot of super weird pressures that sometimes come with it that im really very new to navigating really and can get super overhwhelmed by. and id hate to accidentally be one of those ppl whos presenting things as more shiny than they are ykno. cos sometimes i really dont feel shiny at aaaall! i think part of it is obviusly jus like if im sad or feeling whatever else, those are often not the moments where im like ‘oh sick i should film this! that would go hard.’”
