We’re days away from Halloween, which means we’re days away from the release of the new Florence + The Machine album Everybody Scream, which drops on the 31st. In the home stretch of the pre-release cycle, the group has shared a new video, for “Sympathy Magic.”
The first couple shots are certainly memorable: The first is of a group of women kneeling in a circle and holding their hands together in a star-like pattern, and the second is of Florence Welch, from behind, looking over a vast landscape as she stands completely naked. The rest of the video, directed by Autumn de Wilde, features similarly theatrical and cinematic shots.
The video comes after they debuted the song with a performance on The Tonight Show.

Everybody Scream is out 10/31 via Polydor. Find more information here.
Earlier this year, Radiohead’s “Let Down,” an OK Computer promotional single in 1997, went viral and thus made its debut on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making it just the band’s fourth song to ever make the ranks and their first in nearly two decades. The band’s Thom Yorke is pretty surprised by this, especially considering he really, really didn’t want the song to even be on the album.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, he said, “I find that especially bizarre, because I fought tooth and nail for it not to be on the record, but Ed [O’Brien] was, like, ‘If it’s not, I’m leaving.’” O’Brien called the song the “emotional heart” of the album but admitted, “Still, I was astonished. So I told my kids, who are 18 and 21, and they said, ‘What do you expect? Teenagers are depressed. It’s depressing music!’”
Elsewhere in the chat, in light of their 2017 performance in Tel Aviv, they were asked if they’d perform in Israel again given current goings-on and Yorke said, “Absolutely not. I wouldn’t want to be 5,000 miles anywhere near the Netanyahu regime but Jonny [Greenwood] has roots there. So I get it.” Greenwood added, “I would also politely disagree with Thom. I would argue that the government is more likely to use a boycott and say, ‘Everyone hates us — we should do exactly what we want,’ which is far more dangerous.”
From the elevator to the suite, the chaos of Sin City fades. Suddenly, you are ensconced in Conrad luxury — soft carpets, floor-to-ceiling glass, modern furniture. At Resorts World Las Vegas, the magic trick is volume control — step into buzz when you want it, shut the door on it when you don’t.
Restaurants and speakeasy bars hum without shouting. The spa drops your pulse ten beats. And when it’s time to turn up, you’re a short glide to the theatre, Zouk nightclub, or the gaming floor.
The perfect balance of quiet luxury and Vegas chaos.
WHY IT’S AWESOME
Resorts World Las Vegas
There are three hotels in Resorts World, we stayed at the Conrad, and the suite offered wide living rooms and spa-style baths. It felt like a true retreat. But just downstairs food, shows, and nightlife were all waiting and highly curated. Our rhythm went from room to dinner to some music hit to partying and gaming. The setup allowed us to ¿Resorts World is also very much a music property.
We caught Janet Jackson at Resorts World Theatre and she was everything you’d ever hope. A goddess who had complete control of her voice, dancers, and crowd. She was also a lot more improvisational than I expected. Taking gifts from eager fans and discussing tracks and her career throughout the show in a way that felt refreshingly off the cuff.
On Fridays, the resort’s hidden bar, Here Kitty Kitty Vice Den, leans in with High Fidelity Fridays — a weekly, all-vinyl session nodding to Tokyo’s listening bars: soul, funk, jazz, hip-hop, R&B, and sleek electronica from 9 p.m.–1 a.m., with Japanese whisky and clever cocktails to match. It’s a sit-down where lean-in listen — a sweet counterpoint to the mega-club, ZOUK.
Although… we saw the icon T-Pain at ZOUK and wow… Mega clubs are mega for a reason — they can be wildly fun.
IN-HOUSE FOOD & DRINK
Jakob Layman
Brezza — Nicole Brisson’s coastal Italian hits the “light but satisfying” mark: think a clean crudo, a seasonal pasta with some bite, a simply grilled fish with lemon you actually taste. Service glides; the room feels celebratory without tipping into scene-y. Make sure to zero in on the handmade pastas (particularly stuffed pastas), and thought there.is a great win
Stubborn Seed — Jeremy Ford’s Vegas outpost is precision with personality — textures, acids, and plates that feel engineered to surprise but still read as dinner (not homework). Book when you’re in the mood to be delighted. We absolutely loved the cocktail program here (a trend across the property) and the steaks. Also, and I’m sure I’m not the first writer to say this, but the Cacio e Pepe cheesy puffs will linger in my memory for quite some time.
Here Kitty Kitty Vice Den — Tucked inside Famous Foods and hidden in plain sight, the speakeasy is mood lighting, low chatter, and bartender-driven riffs. On High Fidelity Fridays, the room turns into a proper listen — we’re talking selectors, not background DJs.
AMENITIES
Resorts World Las Vegas
Seven-pool deck over 5+ acres; the Athena Infinity Ultra Pool is adults-only and unreasonably lounge-able (strip views, long swims, easy sun). Book a bungalow if you want to do the “never leave” version.
AWANA Spa — 27,000 sq. ft. of slow breathing: Fountain of Youth thermal circuit, crystal therapies, and theatrical Aufguss sessions. Day-pass pricing floats by day (media lists ~$120–$150 for a timed pass); on our visit, we paid $100 and stayed until our edges softened.
Nightlife on tap — Theatre residencies for the legends; Zouk Nightclub when you want the late set and laser haze.
ROOM TYPES
Resorts World Las Vegas
Three towers, three vibes; Conrad hits the sweet spot on space and design. Suites bring living rooms, work/dine tables, and big-glass views; premium rooms still carry that spa-bath/clean-line DNA.
If you’re chasing white-glove, Crockfords is the bump; value hunters can watch deals on Hilton.
BEST THINGS TO DO WITHIN A 15-MINUTE WALK
Resorts World Las Vegas
Keep it on Resorts World campus and sequence a perfect 24 hours: snack-crawl Famous Foods, slide through the hidden entrance to Here Kitty Kitty, catch a Theatre show, sleep like you mean it, hit Athena adults-only pool all morning, and go to the AWANA thermal circuit for the exhale.
If you need steps, the Strip footbridge and Fashion Show Mall are easy strikes from the resort. But when I do Vegas, I typically don’t stray too far from home base.
BED GAME
Resorts World Las Vegas
Firm-meets-forgiving mattress, blackout blinds that actually work, cold A/C without the roar. The pillows varied in firmness so you could find the winner for you. Certainly, nothing lacking in this regard.
Rating: 9/10
SEXINESS RATING
Resorts World Las Vegas
Sun-oiled afternoons at Athena; low-light cocktails and vinyl crackle at Here Kitty Kitty; spa circuits whenever you want to disappear together. That triangle is impeccable.
Rating: 9/10
VIEWS & PICS SPOTS
Resorts World Las Vegas
Blue hour from your Conrad window (Strip reflected in the glass), the infinity edge at Athena with skyline beyond, and the neon-on-velvet glow inside Here Kitty Kitty before the needle drops are all very photogenic. The infinity pool is stunning… though its current view leads out to a construction project.
BOTTOM LINE
Resorts World Las Vegas
Resorts World lets you tune Vegas: real rest when you need it, highly stylized food when you want it, and music options that range from arena-scale throwbacks to a speakeasy listening session where the cocktail list matches the turntable.
RATES
Conrad rooms often start in the low-$100s mid-week (lower on deal nights), with suites scaling accordingly. Our suite was only around $300/ night.
Welcome to SNX DLX, your weekly roundup of the best sneakers to hit the internet. This week is all about wild collaborations. Whether we’re talking about the Alien Earth-esque ballerina sneaker from Nike and womenswear brand KNWLS, the psychedelic Grateful Dead Air Max 90s, or Yohji Yamamoto’s latest Adidas shake-up, one thing is for certain, this is hands down one of the most unique weeks in the 2025 sneaker year.
We’ll take it! The autumn sneaker season is proving to be this year’s most interesting, and we love it. Something needs to save 2025 right? Here are this week’s best sneaker drops and where to find them.
Nike has teamed up with the gritty South London based women’s wear brand KNWLS for a hyper feminine take on the Air Max Muse. One part ballerina slipper, one part sneaker, this new take on the Muse features corset lacing, a full-grain leather upper, and TPU accents.
It’s easily one of the most futuristic pieces of footwear Nike has released all year, and for that alone, we love it.
The KNWLS x Nike Women’s Air Max Muse Elemental Pink is out now for a retail price of $210. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT.
13 years after its initial release, the Desert Orange Zoom KD 4 is back! The sneaker sports a mixed synthetic and textile upper with Hyperfuse construction, a mid foot strap, and a colorway that nods to Kevin Duran’t alma matter. The mix of brown tones and white will surely fit right in alongside your other fall wardrobe staples.
The Nike Zoom KD 4 Desert Orange is out now for a retail price of $135. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.
Nike and Grateful Dead have a history of close collaboration and a great track record of designs, so anytime the two entities link up, we’re thrilled to see what they’ve cooked up. This latest collaboration sees the two link up with the University of Oregon, a school known for its deep roots in the ‘60s counter culture.
The design, which is built on an Air Max 90, nods to the Grateful Dead’s 1990 show at the University’s Autzen Stadium.
The Grateful Dead x Oregon x Nike Air Max 90 is available now. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT.
We love when Air Jordan does the absolute bare minimum — every Jordan fan just wants a dope colorway on one of their favorite shoes, and this week, fans of the AJ-3 are getting that with this Medium Olive rendition.
The sneaker sports a leather and nubuck upper in green olive tones with gentle Sequoia accents and olive-toned elephant print overlays. This sneaker is dripping with autumnal vibes and we’re here for it.
The Nike Air Jordan 3 Medium Olive is set to drop on October 25th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $215. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.
The hype for Cooper Flagg is real (even if his Dallas Mavericks debut has hit some stumbles), case in point, this is his first year in the NBA and New Balance is already slapping his name all over this new low-top Hesi silhouette.
The basketball sneaker features a lightweight knit mesh upper with synthetic overlays, and all sorts of performance-based features, like rounded outsole edges for enhanced lateral movement, a nylon shank, and a multi-directional traction outsole.
The New Balance Cooper Flagg x Hesi Low v2 is out now for a retail price of $119.99. Pick up a pair at New Balance or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.
Yohji Yamamoto’s Y-3 imprint has descended upon Adidas once again, shaking things up with a series of reimagined silhouettes. Our favorite is hands down the Y-3 take on the high top Nizza. The sneaker sports a canvas upper with distressed edges, suede lining, and a removable Lightstrike midsole insert for added comfort.
The sneaker is dressed up in a moody deep black colorway with contrasting white stitch work.
The Adidas Y-3-N Nizza Hi is set to drop on October 25th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $280. Pick up a pair via Adidas or aftermarket sites like GOAT.

When we think of jazz, we think of instruments — saxophones, pianos, trumpets, trombones, clarinets, bass, drums, and guitars — blending in unpredictable ways to craft listening journeys fit for late nights and early mornings. We think of peace, relaxation, maybe even distraction.
The genre’s proven its versatility with its presence on playlists for dinner parties, studying sessions, meditative breathwork, and other activities we’d dub comforting. It’s undeniable that music has healing properties, such as reducing stress, boosting creativity, and stimulating the brain, but a recent study by researchers at the University of California, Irvine revealed that improvisational music like jazz goes further, possessing the potential to reduce anxiety, and even pain. That intersection of music and wellness is now being explored in music therapy programs to assist patients with their physical, mental, and emotional condition.
“I feel like music as a whole is spiritual,” says Samantha Sancho, a music therapist at The Louis Armstrong Department of Music Therapy at Mount Sinai. “For example, when people are going through such difficult times those types of genre, especially gospel, may come up as people are dealing with their illness.” Mount Sinai serves patients from the neonatal intensive care unit, end-of-life palliative care, neurodivergent children and adults, and more across multiple locations throughout Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn. Currently, Sancho’s researching how music therapy can reduce the amount of Black women that are disproportionately affected by preterm birth in pregnancy. “I do think that an aspect of music therapy that we utilize is improvisation, and we see that in jazz a lot,” she explains.
Clearly, jazz produces a spectrum of emotions (and emotional benefits), so it’s only natural that its impact has expanded since its creation in the late 19th century. The artform is constantly evolving, resulting in several modern subgenres — think Japanese jazz fusion in popular video games like Mario Kart and notable jazz rap albums from A Tribe Called Quest, Digable Planets, and Kendrick Lamar. Dinner Party musicians Kamasi Washington, 9th Wonder, Robert Glasper, and Terrace Martin offer new contributions to the genre quite frequently, whether it’s a solo or group project. Even Juicy J, who just released his second jazz-influenced album Caught Up in The Illusion over the summer with bassist Endea Owens, said in an interview with DJ Bonics that jazz still doesn’t receive its proper acknowledgment.
But, thanks to promising artists like Destin Conrad, the genre won’t be forgotten — in fact, it’s being sustained by younger performers and listeners, many approaching it with wellness in mind. whIMSY, his new experimental jazz project, was prompted by Conrad’s time in his high school’s jazz choir and inspired by pioneers like Frank Sinatra, Vanisha Gould, Miles Davis, Meshell Ndegeocello, and Chet Baker. As his tour wraps up, he hopes listeners peruse jazz in a “more introspective way,” describing his interpretation of the genre as a meditative experience.
Unsurprisingly, the birthplace of jazz music is New Orleans, Louisiana, the culturally-rich and lively city that influenced other genres like zydeco and bounce. Derived from gospel, blues, and ragtime, jazz was a byproduct of enslaved people in the South. Lyrics provided a cathartic release of their painful trials and tribulations, while their hearts and souls rose through the instruments.
To Melanie Charles, the genre is our “ancestral right,” and the artist ensures that there’s safety, comfort, and visibility within the music. Born and raised in Brooklyn, Charles’ Haitian roots are as pronounced in her versatile musical style as her upbringing. “The roots of jazz are spirituals [and] the blues, it’s a shared thing, a secret thing, that we had to bring us comfort and community,” Charles said. “We were snatched away from our native land, and we’re in this space. It’s like, ‘What do we have? What can we hold on to? What can they not take away from us?’”
The mass relocation of Black Americans during The Great Migration brought jazz to the North, which transformed the Harlem Renaissance. The definition of wellness for musicians — in this case, Black musicians — has evolved over centuries, and that artistic expression was apparent in visual arts, dance, theater, and literature in the 1920s.
Sasha Doster, a PhD candidate at Columbia University studying historical musicology, describes this period of time as a “redefining of personhood.”
“These are people who still have the collective memory of what it means to be a bondaged people, and what they’re doing in the Harlem Renaissance is this is the first time that Black people have been able to define who they were, at least in the public eye.”
Doster’s research lies in Black classical music and intertwines the complexity of assimilation and respectability politics in genres like opera and ballet. While acknowledging writer, folklorist, and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston as a vanguard for preserving Southern history, Doster says “freedom is essential to the elements of jazz.”
“Everything from poetry to literature, music, and dance is how we redefine ourselves. And I think that’s so beautiful, because you’re finally giving Black people agency, and the way that they choose to do it is through the arts.” Harlem became a pinnacle of historical preservation and self-expression for Black people, which further explains Doster’s takeaway that jazz, blues, and gospel are communal—pointing to the church choir, jazz ensembles, and bands.
“That’s the beauty of Black music. From the very beginning, it was meant to bring people together until this day, it has not lost its foundational goal.”
Jordan Brown, who is currently receiving her doctorate in ethnomusicology at Harvard University, agrees that other Black genres wouldn’t exist without the foundation of jazz. Her dissertation focuses on Black alternative R&B and hip-hop, particularly its overlap as a refuge for Black queer communities in the United States.
In her words, the fusion of jazz, hip hop, R&B, funk, and rap created the template that artists like Thundercat, Arlo Parks, Flying Lotus, Willow, Frank Ocean, and Steve Lacy build on today. “A lot of these people that seemingly fall under this alternative umbrella tend to cite a lot of jazz musicians as their inspiration,” Brown says.
If music fosters an abundance of creativity and critical thinking, we should seek out more of its cognitive components. As John Coltrane said, “I think music is an instrument. It can create the initial thought patterns that can change the thinking of people.” Add more jazz to your life: spend a weeknight at a local piano bar, watch a documentary like Soundtrack to a Coup d’Etat, or sift through stations on NTS Radio to discover the genre’s global influence. Before you know it, jazz might enhance your well-being.
Y’all were very disrespectful when this Cash Money and No LimitVerzuz battle was announced. I know Beatrice and yes, Cash Money is an army better yet a navy with an extensive classic catalogue but y’all sleeping on his Nawlins rivals at No Limit. Let’s be clear: Before Juvenile and the Hot Boys took over the 2000s, Master P created the blueprint for a true Southern rap dynasty.
I was Music Editor at The Source from ’96 to ’98 and tried my best to navigate No Limit Records’ insane release schedule. I swear to God, their former Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations, Barbara Pescosolido, bombarded me with so many advance CDs that I didn’t have enough room in my record reviews section to hand out mics to them all. She also sent me a No Limit black leather jacket. It gets cold in New York.
Alright enough flashbacks. All I’m saying is: never count the underdog out. In fact, I’ll take it a step further. Although the song selections for this showdown will come from Mannie Fresh (Cash Money) and Beats By The Pound producer, KLC (No Limit) as Juve and Silkk revealed here, I decided to rep the tank for the upcoming proceedings.
Hey ain’t nothing wrong with friendly competition, but I wanna see a musical slugfest.
Calliope > Magnolia. Here are the 20 songs that will get the job done. Remember: An ass kicking in Vegas stays in Vegas. Here’s how Master P and his all-stars will shock the rap world.
TRU (Master P, Silkk The Shocker & C-Murder) — “No Limit Soldiers” feat. Mia X (1997)
All rap superheroes need theme music. Let’s get this Verzuz party started with the Colonel Master P and his camouflage crew stomping through with this rugged anthem anchored by its ominous chorus: “We No Limit Soldiers. I thought I told ya.”
Mia X — “You Don’t Wanna Go 2 War” feat. Master P, C-Murder, Silkk The Shocker & Mystikal (1997)
Let’s turn it up another notch with another rowdy posse cut. Mama Mia sets the tone with her mic-melting opening verse. She sneers: “Better keep your negativity about No Limit on the under/My verbal warfare will shake that ass like thunder”.
Master P — “Mr. Ice Cream Man” feat. Silkk The Shocker, Mia X, & Mo B. Dick (1996)
Legend has it: Master P, a proud New Orleans native first, built his label out West in Richmond, California. Utilizing a sample from World Class Wreckin’ Cru’s classic “Turn Off The Lights”, Percy Miller had his first national hit. And sorry kids, P wasn’t offering a frozen dessert.
Give the son some: P’s offspring gave Bow Wow a run for this money with this Jackson 5-inspired party track. It’s like that, whoadie. Guarantee this one’s gonna ring off. Michael Jackson, rest in peace.
504 Boyz (Master P, Silkk The Shocker, C-Murder, Mystikal & Krazy) — “Wobble Wobble” feat. Mac & Mr. Magic (2000)
The party don’t stop with this booty-shaking masterwork. Let’s hope P hired a few dancers to enhance the performance. Just a suggestion. Ya heard me. Ha!
TRU (Master P & Silkk The Shocker) — “Freak Hoes” feat. Mia X (1997)
NL keeps it sexy with this dirty south classic that Future paid homage to on DS2. Hope the ladies are still moving and grooving. On top of that: Throw some cash in the air like you just don’t care.
TRU (Master P, Silkk The Shocker & C-Murder) — “Hoody Hoo” (1999)
The three Miller brothers (P, C & Silkk) showed out on this high-energy explosive track. Buckle up. Knuckle up. P ain’t letting Baby and the CMB boys beat him tonight.
Soulja Slim — “From What I Was Told” (1998)
A moment of silence for a real one. “Say I’m a hit No Limit like ‘Pac hit Death Row.” Time to pay homage to this fallen soldier. Magnolia’s most respected. James Tapp Jr. forever.
Master P — “I Miss My Homies” feat. Sons Of Funk, Mo B. Dick, O’Dell, Pimp C, Silkk The Shocker (1997)
P continues paying tribute to all we lost along the journey. We’ll see you at the crossroads. Won’t be a dry eye in Vegas.
The big curveball of the night: Clipse just happens to be in town for Complex Con so Cash Money nemesis King Push shockingly pops out and raps his verse from this forgotten Neptunes production. Looking like he saw a ghost, Birdman might pass out.
Mr. Magic — “Ice On My Wrist” feat. Master P (1999)
Who said P can’t get his Nino Brown on? No Limit got bling bling too. “The ice on my wrist shine like a light. I can brighten up your day, even at night”. The competition is heatin’ up!
Master P — “I Got The Hook-Up!” feat. Sons of Funk (1998)
Holla if you hear him. P takes it back to the streets. It’s a hustler’s conundrum. “I know the way I live make you wanna cry/But you know I gotta hustle, that’s the way I survive”. Look out Rod Wave, this is some real pain music.
Silkk The Shocker — “That’s Cool” feat. Trina (2001)
Time for another surprise guest appearance as Da Baddest Bitch graces the stage and wobbles that thing. Look out: P’s pulling out all the stops to secure the win.
Silkk The Shocker — “Somebody Like Me” feat. Mya (1999)
Another beautiful bombshell when Ms. Harrison emerges from the shadows for this sexy reunion. Now we got the women on board. Victory is imminent.
Silkk The Shocker — “It Ain’t My Fault” feat. Mystikal (1998)
Don’t blame No Limit for having so many classics. Let Silkk shine and silence the critics once and for all.
Snoop Dogg — “Lay Low” feat. Dr. Dre, Master P, Nate Dogg, Butch Cassidy and The Eastsidaz (2001)
Don’t you ever forget: The most popular rapper on the planet, Snoop Dogg, left Death Row to join Master P’s No Limit mafia and his career is still smokin’. I doubt Lil Wayne shows up, but Mr. Broadus will be there. Book it.
Snoop Dogg — “Bitch Please” feat. Xzibit (1999)
Let’s keep it West Coast and let the Pimp My Ride host bring his ass to the table. This Dr. Dre production sounds so beautiful, don’t you agree? Throw up the W it stands for win.
Snoop Dogg — “Down 4 My N’s” feat. C-Murder and Mr. Magic (1999)
I never realized this was a Death Row diss song until Snoop told me. C-Murder was quite clear: “Bitch, I’m down with No Limit, I’ll ride for the cause / I’m the n**** on the tank with the big fuckin’ balls / And if anybody fuck with Snoop Doggy Dogg / I’ma make these n****s put his name on the wall.” Snoop survived the wrath of Suge, this sonic showdown is light work.
TRU — “I’m Bout It, Bout It” feat. Master P and Mia X (1995)
Cam and the Diplomats know this is one of the strongest street songs of all-time. And we’re gonna let Mia pack ’em up with her closing verse. “The bitch you love to hate, but yet ain’t bold enough to face/’Cause Mia X will finish first in this grand diva race”. Cash Money for all their accomplishments ain’t got no female MCs and it shows. No doubt about it.
Master P — “Make ‘Em Say Uhh” feat. Fiend, Silkk The Shocker, Mia X and Mystikal (1997)
This is the sound of victory. A slam dunk like the ones you often see in this classic video. Not sure of the final score, but just know that No Limit will triumph. The tank ran over them. Make ’em say no mas.

Everybody Scream is out 10/31 via Polydor. Find more information here.
Genre-bending Johnstown, Pennsylvania rapper Eem Triplin is having a breakout year. In February, he released his debut album, Melody Of A Memory, and just four months later, he was on XXL‘s 2025 Freshman cover, paying off the years-long climb he started way back in 2022, when he first went viral for an early-afternoon Rolling Loud set that only had 13 attendees.
Today, he started the next phase of his campaign for pop culture domination, dropping what he joked on Instagram was a “3-pack of ass,” including the whimsical “Coming Undone,” which he previously released in an effort to capitalize on the buzz from another viral stunt gone sideways. You can listen to it right here, and check out the rest of the pack here.
The original “release” of “Coming Undone” came on SoundCloud on October 7, when he also shared a video on Twitter featuring the lyrics overlaid on footage of a scantily-clad SZA. The video was inspired by a parody account’s fake news report that the two artists were dating, based on a caption SZA shared on Instagram in which she joked, “Ion eem post on the main no more.”
SZA later wrote in an Instagram comment that Eem was “on my f*ckin nerves a lil bit” and the younger artist joked that she’d blocked him on Twitter as a result. In reality, the whole thing was a lighthearted bit between two labelmates, and of course, fans on social media got a little too invested.
The young artist clearly knows how to get attention, a skill that may serve him well in the future — provided he can manage the unhinged humor of his fanbase when it breaks containment.
“I Like The Way You Kiss Me” singer Artemas has a new project, Lovercore, out now. To celebrate the release, Artemas has announced that he’ll be bringing the project on the road with a tour in 2026.
After a hometown show in the UK, the rest of the tour goes down in North America between late February and late March, hitting Los Angeles, Toronto, New York City, and more.
Ticket sales start with a pre-sale on October 29 at 10 a.m. local time, followed by a general on-sale starting October 30 at 10 a.m. local time. A sign-up for early access and more information can be found here.
In a recent interview, Artemas discussed about making his project, saying, “It’s daunting to create something that cohesive, but it excites me, too. I want to put my flag in the sand. I think I’m making some of the most exciting alt-pop music out there. And I do it all myself. I just haven’t communicated that clearly enough yet.”

As Leon Thomas prepares for the next phase of his breakout career, his Pholks EP, released today through Motown and Ty Dolla Sign’s EZMNY imprint, works as the perfect palette cleanser to pivot from his Mutt era.
The focus track is “My Muse,” a soul-washed ode to a beautiful woman who offers Leon inspiration. It’s brighter and more upbeat than much of his Mutt output, as the funk-soul revivalist shows off some new sounds and a more romantic outlook from the carnal content of his last project.
Likewise, the video focuses on Thomas’ interactions with a single female costar, with shades of Fast Times At Ridgemont High in its direction. Thomas watches his muse sunbathe by the pool and dances with her under a dazzling crystal chandelier, all while singing her praises: “‘Cause you’re not my girl, but you still my muse / Make me wanna get my money up and spend it on you.”
Pholks arrives just before Thomas embarks on his Mutts Don’t Heel tour, which will kick off the day before Halloween in Dallas and end just two days before Christmas with two nights at the Wiltern in Los Angles, before he’ll take it to Australia, Europe, and the UK next spring.
Watch Leon Thomas’ “My Muse” video above.
Pholks is out now via EZMNY/Motown Records. You can find more info here.
