Month: July 2025

Finally, after years, BTS members are wrapping up their mandatory South Korean military service. Furthermore, it has been reported that the group is eyeing a March 2026 comeback. None of that is officially set in stone yet, but what is confirmed is that BTS is about to release a new live album: Permission To Dance On Stage – Live.

Pre-orders are set to open on July 1, and the project will then be released on July 18.

Additionally, the group is also releasing exclusive digital content via a Weverse digital code, including videos from the group’s Seoul shows in March 2022, as well as “a 92-page interview photobook offering behind-the-scenes moments from the concert.”

The tracklist for the live album hasn’t been revealed yet, but we do know that it’ll feature 22 tracks, including “Dynamite,” “Butter,” “Life Goes On,” “Boy With Luv” featuring Halsey, and “On.” For an idea of what the full tracklist might look like, check out the setlist from the tour-closing April 16, 2022 show in Las Vegas (via setlist.fm) below.

The countdown to the Clipse comeback album, Let God Sort Em Out, continues, and the next nugget to be revealed from the long-awaited project is the tracklist. The Thornton boys shared the song titles and features on Spotify’s Countdown To, revealing that John Legend, Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Tyler The Creator, and more will be featured on their first album together in over 15 years. All the tracks are produced by Pharrell, who will also contribute “a few verses.”

The album’s rollout has been one for the books, unofficially beginning back in 2022, with the duo’s reunion at Pharrell’s Something In The Water Festival and BET Hip-Hop Awards performance that year. Last year, they began teasing the project’s existence in a June interview with Vulture, and started pushing (heh) the album in earnest in July, revealing its title on Pusha’s Instagram. This May, they released the first single, “Ace Trumpets,” along with the release date, following up with the video for “So Be It” earlier this month.

They also delivered a tense performance on Colors, and shared the dates for the album’s upcoming tour. You can see the tracklist below.

Let God Sort Em Out is due 7/11 via Roc Nation. You can find more info here.

Beyoncé has earned a reputation for her supreme professionalism, but that doesn’t make her immune from rare performance mishaps — at least, not on her end. On her 2023 Renaissance Tour, she was saved from a potential wardrobe malfunction by her dancers, Les Twins.

Meanwhile, her ongoing Cowboy Carter Tour had a mechanical malfunction on Saturday night at her hometown show in Houston. While performing “16 Carriages” from a car suspended in the air over the stage, the car listed to one side and stopped moving, prompting the star to halt the show while she was lowered back to the stage. And while she joked about the incident later on Instagram (“Sittin’ sidewayz” is an all-timer of a caption), there’s no doubt the moment was a little scary for those in attendance, if not for Bey herself. As she reached solid ground again, she told the crowd, “I want to thank y’all for loving me. If ever I fall, I know y’all will catch me.”

Parkwood Entertainment released a statement after the show reading, “A technical mishap caused the flying car, a prop Beyonce uses to circle the stadium and see her fans up close, to tilt. She was quickly lowered and no one was injured. The show continued without incident.”

Prior to that, though, the tour had been running smoothly. In May, it was reported that the Cowboy Carter Tour had already set a record highest-grossing reported single-venue engagement ever by a woman for its show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles (which was attended and recapped by Uproxx’s own Philip Cosores. You can read his report here). Later that month, Beyoncé helped a couple do a baby sex reveal.

Olivia Rodrigo is maybe the most rock-forward pop star we have; She brought The Beeders on tour with her. So, when she brought out The Cure’s Robert Smith out at Glastonbury this past weekend, it wasn’t a huge surprise, but it was great.

Introducing Smith, Rodrigo said, “I’m so wildly excited about this next guest, I can’t even contain it. He is perhaps the best songwriter to come out of England, he is a Glastonbury legend and a personal hero of mine. Would you please welcome… Robert Smith!”

They then performed “Friday I’m In Love” and “Just Like Heaven” together (here are some videos).

In a 2023 interview, Rodrigo said of The Cure, “I’m going to see them in two weeks with my dad. He’s introducing me to all the bands he went to see when he was my age.”

Check out Rodrigo’s full setlist below (via setlist.fm).

Charli XCX was one of the big highlights of the Glastonbury festival this past weekend. Given that Charli is a major pop star and the world is how it is, though, she had faced some criticism for her performance, which doesn’t seem to be bringing her down.

Yesterday (June 29), she tweeted, “really enjoying these boomer vibe comments on glastonbury performance. it’s super fascinating to me.”

She added in a now-deleted tweet (archived here):

“like the idea that singing with deliberate autotune makes you a fraud or that not having a traditional band suddenly means you must not be a ‘real artist’ is like, the most boring take ever. yawn sorry just fell asleep xx.”

She continued:

“but to be honest… i enjoy the discourse. imo the best art is divisive and confrontational and often evolves into truly interesting culture rather than being like kind of ok, easily understood and sort of forgettable.”

Check out Charli’s setlist below.
