Karol G, Feid, J Balvin, And Maluma’s ‘+57’ Is A Full-Fledged Party Anthem Sprinkled With Columbian Pride

With the 2024 Latin Grammys quickly approaching, Colombia’s rising and solidified music stars have joined creative forces to craft a new unofficial national anthem.

Today (November 8), Karol G, Feid, and DFZM released their hometown pride single “+57.” The trio was sure to recruit other Colombian musical forces Ovy On The Drums, J Balvin, Maluma, Ryan Castro, and Blessd to demonstrate the musical might of the region.

All hailing from Medellín, Antioquia province’s capital, it is no wonder how the collective effortlessly blended into one massive record. Despite the song’s title being pulled from the country’s telephone code, the sonic influence pulls from reggaeton rather than local sound staples salsa, cumbia, vallenato, and champeta.

With each musician delivering their best vocals and lyrics, it is hard not to ignore the star power of leading lady Karol G and highly sought after titan Maluma.

“And even though that baby girl has a man, she goes out whenever she wants to / She’s getting higher, and she’s grinding in this drunk night / Passing shots mouth-to-mouth, rolling it up and lighting it / And if they ask if she has a boyfriеnd, it depends,” sing Karol G and Feid.

Maluma dials things up a bit with an X-rated verse, singing: “She’s got all the codes / Listening to 2Pac and that booty’s notorious / I put Oreo cream on her stomach / To spend on her at the club / Nobody’s exposing her, not even in Q’hubo.”

But there is nothing but collective unity in the track’s video as they party in the studio. “Colombia Gang,” screams the room. This is a moment that would forever be etched into Colombia’s music history books.

Rashida Jones Shares A Touching Tribute To Quincy Jones, Her ‘Nocturnal,’ ‘Genius’ Father

Earlier this week, it was revealed that music legend Quincy Jones died at 91 years old. Plenty of tributes followed, and now Jones’ daughter, Parks And Recreation star Rashida Jones, has weighed in.

She shared a moving tribute on Instagram, which reads:

“My dad was nocturnal his whole adult life. He kept ‘jazz hours’ starting in high school and never looked back. When I was little, I would wake up in the middle of the night to search for him. Undoubtedly, he would be somewhere in the house, composing (old school, with a pen and sheet music). He would never send me back to bed. He would smile and bring me into his arms while he continued to work…there was no safer place in the world for me.

He was a giant. An icon. A culture shifter. A genius.

All accurate descriptions of my father but his music (and ALL of his work) was a channel for his love. He WAS love.
He made everyone he ever met feel loved and seen. That’s his legacy.

I was fortunate enough to experience this love in close proximity. I’ll miss his hugs and kisses and unconditional devotion and advice. Daddy, it is an honor to be your daughter. Your love lives forever.”

The comments section is full of supportive messages from some recognizable figures. “I love you lady,” Natalie Portman wrote. “So heartbroken. I love you so much,” said Gwyneth Paltrow. “(((((((((Hug))))))))))) for you all,” Questlove wrote.

Saoirse Ronan Was Made Aware That She And Chappell Roan Look Alike By Chappell Roan Herself

Saoirse Ronan and Chappell Roan have more in common than just the letters in their last names.

While appearing on Thursday’s episode of The Tonight Show, the Blitz actress was asked by host Jimmy Fallon about her resemblance to the “Good Luck, Babe!” singer. Ronan is aware of tweets like this one, and “the person who made me aware of it was Chappell,” she said. “I became so obsessed with her over the summer, just like everyone else. Her and Charli XCX.”

Ronan went to one of Roan’s concerts “and randomly lovely Brie Larson was there as well, who I know a a little bit. She brought a friend of hers, and afterwards, her friend was like, ‘I’m gonna go over. I’m gonna talk to her parents.’ And we were like, ‘No, you’ve got to play it cool. We can’t, like, let her know that we love her as much as we do.’ And so he went over, and it turns out that her friend is from the same town as Chappell’s family.” When Ronan and Roan met, the pop star told her, “Oh, everyone says that we’re the same.”

You can watch Ronan — not Roan (although she does a good Chappell impression) — on The Tonight Show above.

Zach Bryan Drops Another New Song As His Ex Alleges He Asked Her To Sign A $12 Million NDA

Zach Bryan just released the new song “This World’s A Giant,” and now he’s already back with another one, “High Road.”

Announcing the track on Instagram, Bryan wrote:

“After not being home for a year and a half I drove out to my mothers gravestone in the dead of night a few days back on familiar Oklahoma roads and I came to realize just like in the past, that she never would call me again

Told her I quit touring because I got accepted to get my masters in Paris next year, I told her I was back in Oklahoma, told her about all my best friends in New York and all the nights we howled with the moon, told her about the immeasurable laughter my band and me have shared these last five years, all the calluses on my finger tips, every tear shed, told her about making it on The Rolling Stone and most importantly told her about porch swinging with my beautiful sister.

I wrote the chorus for this song a month or two back and finished it when I realized I was blessed with all these things.

I figured it was about time I released it.

Thank you guys for listening to ‘This Worlds a Giant’ last night and thank you to all the people who love me; who have truly carried the weight with me.

Seems that all these Quiet Dreams have gotten much too heavy but I’m home now and I’ll hold you through the pain.

High Road is out today and I appreciate all of you.”

This all follows his break-up with Brianna LaPaglia (also known as Brianna Chickenfry). As Stereogum notes, she just alleged that Bryan offered her a $12 million NDA, saying, “That was his final shot at still controlling me and controlling my life, with that money and with him being able to walk away like, ‘I did a good thing, I gave her all this money, who cares about everything I did? She’s gonna have cash in the bank.’ You don’t just get to dump and sh*t on people for a year, give them millions of dollars, and walk away like, ‘I’m the hero. She’s gonna be taken care of for life.’ I’m gonna be taken care of regardless because I’m me.”

Dua Lipa Speaks The Language Of Love In ‘These Walls’ With Belgian Star Pierre De Maere

If walls could talk, what would they say? Dua Lipa and Belgian star Pierre de Maere team up to explore the question on their new song “These Walls.” Although Dua knows that the relationship described in the song is nearing its natural end, she can’t help picturing herself receiving a little extra encouragement. “If these walls could talk / (They’d say) “Enough” / (They’d say) ‘Give up,’” she sings on the chorus. Meanwhile, De Maere echoes her sentiment, albeit in French, the language of love, highlighting the true tragedy underlying the breakup.

The original version of “These Walls” appears on Dua Lipa’s recently released album Radical Optimism. If it seems like the album title and the theme of the song don’t exactly jive, listen: Sometimes, you have to face facts as they stand before you can make the choice to embrace optimism that things will turn out okay in the end. This point is completely unrelated to current events.

Dua Lipa recently wound up her Radical Optimism tour in the States, but she’s on the second leg in Oceania and Asia. She also taped her debut on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts and went viral for her unusual cocktail recipe.

You can watch the lyric video for “These Walls” above.

Tyla Buffs Her Body At A Car Wash In Her Colorful ‘Push 2 Start’ Video

A little under four weeks since she re-released her well-received self-titled debut album, Tyla shares the video for the newly added single “Push 2 Start.” In it, Tyla and her girls take over a car wash, dancing on and between the freshly washed sports cars, getting soapy, and even indulging in some booty buffing while getting a fresh coat of paint. The tail end of the clip pays homage to Tyla’s Indian roots, nodding to the Hindu festival of colors, love, and spring, Holi with spray paint instead of throwing colored powder.

The deluxe version of Tyla puts a feather in the cap on Tyla’s standout 2024. Although she was forced to cancel her first-ever headlining tour in the US, she made up for it with the successful launch of her debut album, as well as collaborations with global superstars like Becky G and Travis Scott. Her standout performances and award wins at the BET Awards and MTV VMAs built on her legend, despite the controversy that followed the latter (arguably, the fact that there even was a controversy, however minor, is evidence of Tyla’s pop culture dominance). She was also acknowledged by the Grammys, proving that her star is only going to rise in the coming months and years as she continues to represent South Africanmusic on the global stage.

How Will The ‘Cross’ TV Show Be Different Than James Patterson’s Novels?

alex-cross-season-1-lg
Prime Video/Amazon

Reacher viewers tune in to see him tossing punches and accurately deducing the most ridiculous scenarios. Next year, Alan Ritchson’s protagonist will do both onscreen while taking on a new Lee Child novel, but first, a legit (and legendary) detective will put all previous deductions to shame. Both shows hail from Prime Video/Amazon, so this is a win-win situation rather than a rivalry between shows, but to prepare for the Aldis Hodge-starring series, it’s useful to consider how this series will differ James Patterson’s books.

Straight off the bat, viewers who are also readers should not expect a carbon copy to leap off the printed page. Cross will not directly adapt any Alex Cross novel in particular (unlike the Morgan Freeman and Tyler Perry movies) although there would have been dozens to choose from.

Rather, and as Hodge has revealed, the series “is based on the foundation of Alex Cross,” and creator Ben Watkins chose to take “the bone structure of that world and fill it up with a beautiful story.” The star also believes that the show will ultimately become “something completely unique.” As for Watkins, the showrunner declared the following:

“I said I was not going to do any of the seasons based on the books. I thought it was really important that we give fans a new offering, that we honor the characters and the world so that they would feel like they were getting what they signed up for, but also then give them a new story.”

Still, Cross’ workplace and family background will remain familiar. He will be reeling after the death of his wife while maintaining his profession due to being so much better at his forensic psychology gig than any colleague. During this first season, Cross will be working to crack a serial-killer case where the criminal has been cross-pollinating into other felonies, to put things mildly. However, Cross can climb inside the heads of criminals, so he’s down to go where no other detective can go.

Cross will premiere on November 14, and Amazon has already ordered a second season.

When Will ‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’ Season 2 Stream On Netflix?

Daryl Dixon

Back in August, several AMC series including Dark Winds and Kevin Can F*ck Himself received an audience infusion after debuting on Netflix. The The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon was among that group after eleven seasons of the post-apocalyptic flagship series has enjoyed the same for several years, but the Netflix deals for these series mean that these shows have a waiting period before their newest seasons join the club.

So although AMC’s audience has now seen Carol Peltier reunite with BFF Daryl, not every The Walking Dead fan has enjoyed the Daryl Dixon: The Book Of Carol experience yet.

When Will The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 2 Stream On Netflix?

The second season premiered on AMC in late September with six episodes, and the series has already unveiled a teaser with an anticipated release in 2025. Once we hear about a more specific window, we can assume that Netflix will stream the second season about a month prior to release day. This will probably happen in Fall 2025, but we’ll be waiting to hear more.

Additionally, word on the Walker-clogged street is that the third season, which takes place in Spain, shot on location in “the Galicia, Aragón, Catalonia and Valencia regions, each providing a new and unique backdrop for the post-apocalyptic world.” AMC has also provided a third season description:

“Season three will follow Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier as they continue their journey to somehow return home and to the ones they love. As they struggle to find their way back, the path takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse.”

Norman Reedus also hinted that a fourth season of Daryl Dixon is very likely, so it sounds like the duo won’t be recrossing the Atlantic anytime soon. The Commonwealth can wait.
