Playboi Carti’s set on The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn Tour brought Travis Scott to Chicago’s Soldier’s Field. Travis and Carti have collaborated often, and performed several of their songs together during Carti’s opening set. After playing a string of songs from his new album, I AM MUSIC, Travis surprised the crowd, joining Carti for a mini-set including their joint hits “Goosebumps,” “Crush,” and “Fe!n” from Travis’ last album, Utopia. You can check out some fan videos of the performance here.
Carti also reportedly again teased a new project, despite having released Music just three months ago, to a warm fan reception. In addition to that supposed new album, fans can also look forward to Carti’s performance at the 2025 BET Awards, which he’s billed to play, along with Lil Wayne, GloRilla, and Leon Thomas.

A particularly memorable South Park episode for Disney fans came in 2009, when Mickey Mouse was depicted brutally attackingUproxx cover stars the Jonas Brothers. The trio was relatively young at the time, and it turns out the way Joe Jonas sees it, he was the only one of them who appreciated the episode.
In an upcoming episode of Mythical Kitchen’s interview series Last Meals set to launch on YouTube on June 3 (Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive clip), Jonas explains:
“I think I was the only brother that loved it. […] Our skin was not as thick back then, and I thought it was hilarious because I watched South Park and I was like, ‘This is so funny, I know what they’re doing, they make fun of everyone.’ And great comics… to be made fun of by a comic is usually a sign that they give a sh*t and they care and it’s funny, and you got to be able to take a… I mean, they really went for us. I think they were going more so on like the idea of what it is. […]
What an honor to get my ass kicked by Mickey. […] I think it’s one of my favorite episodes, and later on, now we just laugh. I love that, I think it’s so great. Definitely claim to fame for me.”
Outlander fans have been dealing with another “Droughtlander” again, although this one won’t last too long. The Blood Of My Blood limited prequel series will debut this fall with the twin stories of Claire and Jamie Fraser’s parents getting it on. Then all eyes will look toward the future (er, past) when the flagship bodice-ripping series finishes adapting Diana Gabaldon’s saga after completing filming last fall. There’s also the chance that a Lord John Grey spin off could be part of this franchise’s long-term plan, but let’s back up and talk about what to expect from Outlander‘s eighth season.
Cast
Starz
To state the obvious: Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan will finish their mutual run as Claire and Jamie Fraser, respectively.
The final season will also bring back César Domboy as Fergus Fraser and Lauren Lyle as Marsali Fraser, who haven’t been seen in a minute (years, actually, since they did not appear in the seventh season). More returns will include include John Bell as Young Ian, David Berry as Lord John Grey, Sophie Skelton as Brianna Fraser, Richard Rankin as Roger MacKenzie, Charles Vandervaart as William Ransom, Kristin Atherton as Jenny Murray, and Izzy Meikle-Small as Rachel Hunter.
Plot
Diana Gabaldon is heavily involved in this Starz series as consultant, but as viewers realize, she hasn’t finished writing the tenth Outlander book yet, so this final season will be unpredictable on plot points until a synopsis drops. Most likely, we’re in for a wait on that until Blood Of My Blood airs this summer. Additionally, there will be almost too many Outlander threads to pull together before the show ends, but little tidbits like the confirmed return of Fergus and Marsali Fraser should spawn some theories (and perhaps confirmations) as the final season draws closer.
Clearly, Claire and Jamie’s story will remain at the forefront, so it’s a damn good thing that Claire “decided not to die” from her gunshot wound. She has also requested to return “home” (i.e., Fraser’s Ridge) when that becomes possible. Then there’s the matter of that cliffhanger, in which Claire and Jamie’s stillborn daughter, Fanny, appears to… have actually lived? This revelation left viewers, whether they’ve devoured the books or not, understandably shocked, and co-showrunner Matthew B. Roberts provided some context during an interview with TV Line on taking that cliffhanger forward:
“There’s a blurb in Book 9 that gave us the idea of, ‘Hey, what if?’ And we ran with it. You’ll get the answers in Season 8. Obviously it’s a cliffhanger, but hopefully we tie it up in a bow with the answers and the explanations and what happens and the ramifications of all that on Jamie and Claire.”
When further pressed on how this will resolve, considering that Gabaldon’s source material involves Jamie explaining to Claire that Fanny couldn’t have survived (and the TV series did not do this), Roberts only responded, “You’ll see, visually, how it ties up.” Naturally, Roberts is not able to divulge the full explanation of what happens in the eighth season regarding Fanny, he did explain that Diana Gabaldon is good with what has been decided:
“If we went down this path and she said, ‘Don’t, I wish you wouldn’t,’ we wouldn’t have. That’s happened in the past, where we’ve proposed something to her and she’s like, ‘I wish you wouldn’t,’ and then we don’t.”
Additionally Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan spoke with Hollywood Reporter, which also brought up the Fanny cliffhanger. They are digging it with Heughan responding, “It’s a huge moment for them to find out that their daughter potentially lived, and now they have this grandchild in their life. It’s a great cliffhanger — one that I think book and non-book fans are going to be surprised by.” To which Balfe added, “I just love it when you are given a scene and you read it, and it’s like, ‘Ooh, that’s really good.’ But in the playing of it, when the hairs on your arms are standing up, it’s pretty brilliant.”
There will be more to come on this subject and others, no doubt.
Release Date
Although Outlander‘s final season doesn’t have a specific date yet (2026 is probable), Outlander: Blood Of My Blood will premiere on August 8, and from there, we should receive hints.
Trailer
Likewise, Starz will probably save Outlander sneak peeks for when Blood Of My Blood airs, but for now, here’s a teaser trailer for that prequel series:
Keeping up with new music can be exhausting, even impossible. From the weekly album releases to standalone singles dropping on a daily basis, the amount of music is so vast it’s easy for something to slip through the cracks. Even following along with the Uproxx recommendations on a daily basis can be a lot to ask, so every Monday we’re offering up this rundown of the best new music this week.
This week saw Tate McRae continue the F1 dominance and Lorde deliver a powerful statement. Yeah, it was a great week for new music. Check out the highlights below.
Lorde has been raw during her ongoing Virgin era, and that’s especially true on “Man Of The Year.” The video illustrates this, too, as a shirtless-but-tape-covered Lorde dances around a dirt-filled room.
Alex G — “Afterlife”
Alex G has been going for a while now, but he finds himself at the start of a new journey: Last week, he announced Headlights, his first album on a major label (RCA Records, specifically). So far, so good: He also shared “Afterlife,” a catchy Americana number with a fun video.
Addison Rae — “Fame Is A Gun”
Rae is best known for her social media fame, yeah, but lately, she’s been making impressive headway as a pop star. She’s had quite the run since “Diet Pepsi,” and her latest bop, “Fame Is A Gun,” sees her explore the impact of her celebrity.
Obongjayar — “Holy Mountain”
Obongjayar enjoyed a strong debut era, with his debut album Some Nights I Dream Of Doors performing well on the UK charts and the Fred Again.. collab “Adore U” nearing the top of the singles chart there. Now he’s onto his sophomore LP, Paradise Now, and songs like the head-bobbing “Holy Mountain.”
d4vd — “Where Did You Go?”
d4vd already dropped Withered but he had some unfinished business to take care of on the new deluxe edition. Using the digital audio workstation app BandLab, he made some songs, and some of those found homes the Petals To Thorns EP, but now “Where Did You Go?” is finally out via the deluxe.
Ava Max — “Lovin Myself”
Many love Ava Max and it turns out she loves herself, too. She makes that especially clear on “Lovin Myself,” which sounds like it’s about something more intimate than just self esteem.
Conan Gray — “This Song”
Uproxx cover star Conan Gray followed the announcement of his album Wishbone with “This Song.” The song is a romantic one and it comes with an equally heartwarming video.
Clipse — “Ace Trumpets”
Clipse announced the title of their reunion album nearly a year ago, and finally, last week, they shared the lead single. The song is “Ace Trumpets,” which, like the rest of the album, is produced by Pharrell.
Leon Thomas — “Not Fair”
Mutt has proven to be a breakout hit for Thomas, and fortunately, he had more to share on the new deluxe edition, dubbed Heel. That includes “Not Fair,” produced by James Fauntleroy.
British singer Lola Young is breaking out in 2025 thanks to the continued success of her 2024 single “Messy” and its recent follow-up, “One Thing” (she also appears on Tyler The Creator’s new album Chromakopia and toured with Billie Eilish). With that momentum behind her, she’s bringing her unique brand of alternative indie pop to North America for her first run of headlining tour dates.
Following up her debut performance at Coachella, Young has a slew of European festivals booked through the summer, then begins her North American dates November 1 in Toronto, wrapping up December 6 in Los Angeles. Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 6th at 10am local time. You can find more info here. See below for all tour dates.

New York’s Governors Ball Music Festival is well into its second decade at this point, and quickly into its run, it became one of the biggest live music events of the summer. This year’s edition will be the 14th one, and once again, it’s not to be missed.
If you’re looking to do more than watch shaky, 15-second performance clips on TikTok and want to actually be there in person, there’s a lot you should know before and after you buy your tickets. We’ve gathered all the info you need and organized it for you, so here is your complete preview of Governors Ball 2025.
Dates
Gov Ball 2025 spans three days this summer: June 6, 7, and 8.
Lineup
The headliners for this year’s festival are Tyler The Creator, Olivia Rodrigo, and Hozier. The lineup also includes Benson Boone, Feid, Glass Animals, Mk.gee, T-Pain, Tyla, Jpegmafia, Matt Champion, Jean Dawson, Conan Gray, Marina, Mariah The Scientist, Car Seat Headrest, Mt. Joy, Clairo, Royel Otis, The Japanese House, Amaarae, Key Glock, Militarie Gun, and more.
The festival has cycled through a handful of venues in recent years, but for 2025, it’ll stay in Queens’ Flushing Meadows Corona Park, where it’s been since the 2023 edition.
In a previous statement, Sue Donoghue, NYC Parks Commissioner, said, “Summer in New York City is not complete without the sound of music playing in our parks. Holding the Governor’s Ball in our iconic Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens is the perfect way to celebrate the arts and bring people together. We look forward to seeing New Yorkers and visitors alike join us in Queens for this thrilling kick off to summer in one of our most storied parks.”
Set Times
We previously covered set times, so find the full list here.
Tickets
Tickets have been on sale for a while now, but some still do remain. Three-day general admission tickets are available for $359 (with no hidden fees). Other pricing tiers and single-day tickets are on sale, so find more information on the festival website.
Food And Drinks
You won’t go hungry or thirsty this year, as there will be over 40 vendors on the festival grounds. The festival website has a helpful page where all the food and drink options are listed, and for ultimate convenience, they can even be filtered by dietary restrictions.
Weather
Per Weather.com, during the weekend of Gov Ball, Queens should expect temperatures to hover around 80 degrees, with clouds and about a 25-percent chance of rain. For a more reliable forecast, though, check weather reports closer to the big weekend.
What To Bring
Uproxx’s Philip Cosores recently compiled a helpful festival packing guide for 2025, so find that here.
Summer break for schools is coming right up, which means we’re in the midst of prom season. Benny Blanco decided he wasn’t going to let this window pass by without getting involved.
This past weekend, Blanco found himself at Fairfax High School in Fairfax, Virginia. (As WUSA9 notes, Blanco is an alum of nearby South Lakes High School.) On TikTok, Blanco shared a video of himself rushing to enter the school as he explains, “Alright, guys, we’re about to surprise Fairfax High School. I’m 15 minutes late. We gotta go right now. Let’s f*cking go, go, go, go, go, go. Let’s go!”
Blanco then bursts into the prom venue to uproarious cheers from the students and gets behind the DJ booth. It’s not clear what made his setlist, but the video is set to his and fiancée Selena Gomez’s “Bluest Flame.”
One TikTok user, apparently a student who was at that prom, commented on Blanco’s post, “Thank you for that wonderful night benny!!!![heart emojis]We’re soooo happy you’re there and we will never forget it!!! That night was soooo much fun!!!”
In it, Rapp offers some advice for queer people during a “really scary time,” saying:
“Find your community. Whether that community is online and thousands of miles away from you or two towns over or in someone who really lifts you up beyond a way you could do for yourself. Your community will do the best it can to keep you safe. This extends so much further past gay and trans people.
Really rely on people around you who are maybe more comfortable or less at risk than you are. We kind of have a pact among certain friends of mine that’s like, ‘I can take a way bigger blow than you can. Let me do that sh*t.’ I’m not going to let my friend who exists in a trans body go out and put themselves at risk because they immediately have a way bigger target on their back. There is such a dire need for protection, and the government is not going to give that to you. No one here is going to give that to you but the people you can trust.”
She also said of her friend group, “I have the tightest group of friends in the entire world. We’re together at least two days out of every weekend. We were just all together at our house, and we were crying — all of us being like, ‘This is so cool.’ We have this intersectional group of b*tches at the house playing Rage Cage on a Sunday for no reason. […] I like my personal life more than I like my work life. And I’ve never had that experience. Not once before this.”
Every single week, our TV and film experts will list the most important ten streaming selections for you to pop into your queues. We’re not strictly operating upon reviews or accrued streaming clicks (although yes, we’ve scoured the streaming site charts) but, instead, upon those selections that are really worth noticing amid the churning sea of content. There’s a lot out there, after all, and your time is valuable.
Robert Pattinson won’t ever stop being a little freak, thank goodness. Here, Parasite helmer Bong Joon-ho dialed into those vibes by rebirthing RPattz again and again in a sci-fi movie that might eventually be declared a classic even if the box office wasn’t so kind. Satire can be a hard sell, especially when the concept of being “expendable” is at the forefront, but you can’t go wrong by firing this up at home, especially when Toni Collette, Naomi Ackie, Mark Ruffalo, and Steven Yeun are on tap.
The season has drawn to a close, but the headlines haven’t evaporated yet. Nathan Fielder is actually beefing with officials at the FAA, which has taken issue with Fielder’s “rehearsal” of Capt. Sully Sullenberger’s Hudson landing in the “Pilot’s Code” episode. Do you know who loves that episode, though? Evanescence lead singer Amy Lee, who told Vulture of the imagined iPod sequence, “It’s just blowing my mind. It’s really beautiful.” So there.
Season finale time has arrived for Jon Hamm as a hedge funder-turned thief (Coop) who happens to rob his wealthy neighbors in the wake of his crumbled life. James Marsden will join for the second season, which was announced before this show even premiered, but before then, viewers will want to see how Coop wiggles out from that unexpected murder development. Can you believe that this is the first Hamm leading role since Don Draper meditated to end Mad Men? And since Apple TV+ has already shown a pattern of letting shows breathe and mature, we’ll see if Coop can outlive Draper on TV.
7. Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One – Paramount movie streaming on Paramount Plus
Tom Cruise’s final outing as Ethan Hunt (with director Christopher McQuarrie still going for it, too) has arrived in theaters, so that people can find out if this character survived an endless stream of life-threatening stunts only to, like, fall into a trash compactor or something? That would be the funniest way to end the franchise, especially after they crushed hearts by bidding farewell to Rebecca Ferguson. In all seriousness, Cruise is an overriding reason why movies survived the pandemic, so if you are so inclined, you definitely know what to do after catching up on Dead Reckoning Part One on streaming.
Finally, Alexander Skarsgård nabbed a lead role where his character’s appeal does not revolve around getting naked. Yet. You never know with him, but this show (which adapts Martha Wells’ The Murderbot Diaries) does aim to stay faithful to the source material’s spirit as much as possible. That target audience has been bestowing positive reactions, but you don’t have to look too far to witness some disappointment in the show’s human characters. What hasn’t been controversial, however, is how this show is keeping episode length short and sweet, in tune with the speed at which the SecUnit devours his own televised addictions.
Gilead’s Most Wanted pushed oppressors to the brink all the way to the end, and although the resistance hasn’t yet made a total victory (there has to be something left for The Testaments to handle), the series finale did deliver satisfaction. For one thing, June (who might appear in the followup series) has started writing her book. For another, she and Serena Joy came to as much of a full-on “meeting of the minds” as possible. And Aunt Lydia’s evolution will be central to what comes next, which will be handled by flagship series creator Bruce Miller, so blessed be the (next) fight to come on Hulu.
This Argentina series has lit up multiple local economies after taking off on Netflix and earning a swift second season renewal. That’s a rarity these days on this streaming service, but this adaptation of the same-named 1957 comic by Hector G. Oesterheld is now on the road to a full conclusion. If you haven’t tuned into this haunting series full of apocalyptic snow, an alien invasion, and mind control, then you have some time to catch up, but there’s no time like the onset of summer weather to tune into this arctic blast.
Currently, the subject of finale viewership numbers is being interpreted and reinterpreted, but it’s fair to say that this season was expected to be divisive and did not disappoint in that manner. Craig Mazin has been upfront about pushing for four seasons, although it’s tough to see how that could happen after Pedro Pascal has effectively left the series, and flashbacks cannot last forever. Bella Ramsey and Kaitlyn Dever are both troopers in enduring internet controversy, though, and if anybody can turn around audience sentiment, then Mazin is the guy to do it.
Sometimes, viewers just want a meat-and-potatoes type series that delivers as promised, and that’s what they received with Tom Hardy returning to gangster mode in a series produced by Guy Ritchie. Last week saw Hardy’s fixer enduring a group dinner, and the season finale heads toward all-out war for the Harrigans and rivals. Hardy has been out there teasing how a potential followup season could go international, although Paramount has remained close-lipped on whether they will pounce upon the chance and total willingness from all involved to keep going.
No second season has been greenlit for this “limited series,” but we’ll see how that goes, given how frequently that label falls aside when viewership runs high. Such is the case for this series starring Julianne Moore, Kevin Bacon, Meghann Fahy, and Milly Alcock. The story takes cues from Greek mythology with a genuinely surprising ending on whose life changes the most after a holiday weekend spent at a lavish estate. Will the victor be happy about their spoils in the long term? Well, the ambiguity regarding that question is why some people want the story to continue.
