Nine Inch Nails crushed it on the Peel It Back Tour this year. Good news: They’re doing it again next year. Today (October 1), the band announced a new run of North American tour dates for 2026, from February to March.

Tickets go on sale starting October 8 at noon local time via the band’s website. Boys Noize will support on all dates.

Uproxx’s Josh Kurp was at a recent NIN show and he wrote, “The immersive Peel It Back Tour is a triumph of sound, obviously, but also sight. It could have been a movie, and Nine Inch Nails were the stars.”

“Birds” might well be one of the many, many euphemisms for a certain white, powdered chemical substance that is a favorite subject of Virginia rap duo Clipse’s verses, but the meaning in their new album opener “Birds Don’t Sing” is a bit more literal. The song, which features John Legend and the Voices of Fire vocal group, deals with Malice and Pusha T’s relationships with their parents — and their mixed emotions in the wake of their parents passing.

In the first verse, Push writes a regretful letter to the brothers’ mom, rapping, “You even told Dad you wished y’all never splitted / See, you were checkin’ boxes, I was checkin’ my mentions / Sayin’ you was tired but not ready to go / Basically was dying without letting me know.” In the second verse, Malice echoes the sentiment, recounting his discovery of their father’s death not long after. “Your car was in the driveway, I knew you were home / By the third knock, a chill ran through my bones,” he recalls. “The way you missed Mama, I guess I should’ve known / Chivalry ain’t dead, you ain’t let her go alone.”

“Birds Don’t Sing” is the emotional standout of Clipse’s comeback album Let God Sort Em Out, but their first album in 15 years has plenty of highlights, including “Chains & Whips” with Kendrick Lamar, “So Be It,” and “P.O.V.” with Tyler The Creator.

You can watch the “Birds Don’t Sing” video above.

For years, there has been a lot of mythology and speculation about Lana Del Rey’s past. Most notable is the idea that she grew up wealthy despite presenting herself as having had humble beginnings. Also for years, Del Rey has tried to deny this and set the record straight. Now, she has done so again.

As Stereogum notes, in Instagram comments, Del Rey addressed a resurfaced interview from Ron Pope, a musician who performed with Del Rey some in the 2000s. Pope said Del Rey had a rich upbringing, but he has since said he “was given sh*tty intel” and apologized for “spreading that nonsense!”

Del Rey wrote in part:

“I don’t remember a Ron Pope, although I might if I saw him. The only people I still know from school are from home. And I wouldn’t say I grew up anywhere other than lake placid. Whoever he was I must’ve felt comfortable to tell him that I spent a lot of time with my grandmother and that I did live for a while in a trailer Alabama not Arkansas- as well as in North Bergen, New Jersey. I sold my life rights for ten thousand dollars to pay for that trailer. These rather backhanded complimentary tales tell a larger story of the energy that still overwhelms my story. Many of the people I had to go to school with will never know what it was like to do what I had to do or go where I had to go to feel safe. One thing I can say is that if we had grown up with money- I firmly believe I would not have put myself in the position to be in the spotlight. My difficulties lead me to one concept of how I could get out of the spot I was in. The only comfort I have in my deeply misunderstood trajectory is that it lead me to Jeremy and allowed me to stay near to my siblings.”

Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber have a history of working together, most notably on their hit 2019 joint single “I Don’t Care.” (Sheeran also co-wrote Bieber’s 2015 No. 1 single “Love Yourself.”) They tried to get another track going, too, but it ended up appearing as a Sheeran solo song, “Camera” from his new album Play. There is a version of the song with Bieber floating around, though.

In a recent interview on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up, Sheeran said, “I wrote it for = and then it ended up being a duet with Justin Bieber for Justice, and then it never materialized. I’ve got a version with Justin on it that’s… it’s pretty cool, but it just exists in the ether, and yeah, now it’s out. I think people like it.”

He then said of the song:

“I think the song ‘Camera’ itself is, like, most of the best moments of my life were never caught on camera, and there is something nice about how your mind remembers stuff. I always think this when I look at my kids: When I was 11, I remember playing my first show and thinking that I was rocking out to 40,000 people and it was amazing. Had someone filmed that on a camera phone, takes the magic away, because it’s actually, like, that’s the real life and actually, it wasn’t that good and it was to 20 people in this hall and blah, blah, blah, but I think sometimes when things aren’t caught on camera… Like, I remember my proposal to my wife in a very specific way. It might have actually been completely different if someone had filmed it. I do think that cameras and videoing things sometimes take the magic away.”

I’ve written a bunch about the crossovers between hip-hop and comics books, from Stan Lee’s influence on rap to the comics lines created by stars like Lisa and Metro Boomin.

At New York Comic Con next week, Marvel and Mass Appeal will carry on that tradition (heh), with Legend Has It…, a new comics series inspired by Mass Appeal’s ongoing album initiative starring rap icons such as Big L, De La Soul, Ghostface Killah, Mobb Deep, Nas, Raekwon, and Slick Rick. Written by Brandon Thomas and illustrated by Sanford Greene, the series will be formally launched on October 10 at NYCC, with issue #1 available at Whatnot’s live shopping stage, Whatnot House, from 5:30–7:00 PM ET, with an exclusive variant cover following the “Comics and Hip-Hop: A Marvel x Mass Appeal Conversation” panel.

There might be no better partner to explore the intersections between rap and comics than Marvel, as the publisher already has a rich history of working with rap titans through its 2015 variant covers turning books starring the likes of Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, and ThorMidnight Marauders, 50 Cent’s Get Rich Or Die Trying, ASAP Rocky’s Long.Live.A$AP, and MF Doom and Madlib’s Madvillainy.

In a press release, Mass Appeal’s founder Nas said, “Working with Marvel on this comic is a celebration of Hip Hop and its legacy. There’s a story we tell through our music, and watching that energy come to life in these pages is a tribute to the culture that shaped us and continues to inspire generations.”

With his Forever Yung Tour kicking off this week, Swedish rapper Yung Lean has revealed his tour openers. According to a press release, he’s bringing a quartet of artists along with him that includes Niontay, Xaviersobased, Taxidermists, and ear.

ear is an elusive duo of electronic producers who will play dates in Canada. Meanwhile, rappers Niontay and Xaviersobased, both from the US, will trade off dates on the first half of the tour. Meanwhile, the final three US dates will feature Massachusetts-based rock duo Taxidermists. You’ll be able to see details below.

After completing the tour, Yung Lean is set to perform alongside Psykos collaborator Bladee to start 2026, and it looks like they could be positioning themselves for a follow-up, as well.

While performing at the All Things Go Festival in New York this weekend, Lola Young had a scary incident: Suddenly, she collapsed on stage and fell to the floor. She later shared a message online, saying, “Hi, for anyone who saw my set at All Things Go today, I am doing OK now. Thank you for all of your support, Lola.”

As for where Young stands now, she’ll be taking some time to herself: Today (September 30), she shared a post on Instagram, announcing that she is cancelling “everything for the foreseeable future” and “going away for a while.”

The post reads in full:

“I’m going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future.

Thank you for all the love and support. I’m so sorry to let anyone down who has bought a ticket to see me, it hurts me more than you know. Obviously you will be entitled to a full refund.

I really hope you’ll give me a second chance once I’ve had some time to work on myself and come back stronger.

Love you all,
Lola x”

Young’s website currently lists a bunch of upcoming tour dates and festival appearances between October 2025 and June 2026, but presumably, at least some of those will be officially cancelled.

When I first hit play on Joey Badass‘s new album Lonely At The Top, “Supaflee” jumped out at me as the notoriously nostalgic rapper’s nod to the mid-2000s mixtape era. It sounds kinda like it was produced by prime The Neptunes, and Joey’s flow has never resembled fellow Brooklynite Fabolous’ distinctive delivery more than it does here.

Apparently, Joey feels the same way, as the “Supaflee” video winds up being nearly a straight-up remake of Fab’s 2001 video for “Young’n (Holla Back),” which was produced by The Neptunes in full 2000s phasers-on-high mode. Here, see for yourself:

While it’s not a shot-for-shot rehash of the video, Joey’s vid hits most of the same beats: rapping in a subway, random New Yorkers doing the Harlem Shake (the real one, not whatever that nonsense was that y’all were doing twelve years ago as part of a “meme”), and a third-minute location change to a studio backdrop performance. Joey’s is black-and-white versus Fab’s colorful switch-up, but it’s fun to see him paying homage while updating the formula.

Joey has also released one other video from Lonely At The Top: “Still” with Ab-Soul and Rapsody. They will also join him on his Dark Aura Tour, which you can find more info about here.

Budding Icelandic superstar Laufey isn’t a household name. Her music is household music, but if you drove to Coachella this year, billboards clued attendees in to exactly why her name isn’t instantly known: most people just pronounce it wrong. Once you figure out how to say “Laufey” out loud (“Lay-vay” is the easiest approximation), you realize that there might not be a singer rising faster in all of music.

And, for her part, Laufey is well aware at just how fast this is all happening. During the second of two sold-out concerts at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena, the artist reflected on the three-year journey that saw her leveling up from The Troubadour in West Hollywood to this massive downtown venue. Laufey noted that performing in front of maybe 500 people a few years earlier felt like a worthwhile peak at the time, and that if it all ended there, it would be enough. She also noted that she didn’t have a proper chance to reflect at the time. Now, in front of an arena audience, she’s not making that mistake again.

There’s plenty about Laufey’s success that might feel surprising. As a Berklee-trained musician, she can play cello, piano, and guitar. Her style incorporates jazz and classical elements, while everything from bossa nova to Aaron Dessner-produced acoustic-pop is on the table in her catalog. This year, she made a surprise appearance at Coachella, not guesting with a big tent DJ, but being accompanied by the LA Philharmonic. Even when introducing the tender ballad “Let You Break My Heart Again,” she acknowledged how her music could seem hard to relate to for people of her age group, making the massive resonance her music is finding feel like a miracle.

Because looking around the audience on Saturday night, it was obvious that something was bringing people together from all demographics and age ranges. The crowd was definitely teen-heavy, with plenty of parental chaperones there. But there were also people of her own age, wearing their Oddli crowns and sporting their just-purchased Laufey merch. Many even did Laufey cosplay, which led to a portion of the show where Mei Mei, her bunny mascot/alterego, looked for the best-dressed fan at the concert. This night’s winner was a child who looked like a Laufey mini-me, complete with both princess and flapper dresses to combine Laufey’s biggest style inspos.

Laufey was just revealed to have a major slot at next year’s Coachella, where she’ll reach another career milestone and bring her old-timey sounds to even more of her peers. And some might see this as a fad, as part of the never-ending trend where old becomes new again. But that discounts the obvious talent of the songwriter, her genius ways of engaging young audiences through social media (she won multiple Webbys in 2024), and just how engaging and addictive her music is. “Castle In Hollywood” could easily fit in a Gracie Abrams set as a propulsive bit of confessional indie-pop, while “From The Start” evokes Caetano Veloso more than it does any of her contemporaries, to the tune of nearly a billion plays on Spotify.

It’s all very heartening, that young people remain open to music that might surprise the powers that be. Sometimes, quality indeed rises to the top, especially when it is made by savvy creators who know how to capture the attention of their own generation.

The Oasis reunion tour is over. It seems possible it’ll be back, but at least for now, it’s done. There’s something Oasis fans can get their hands on to remember it, though: Oasis Live ’25 Opus, a new commemorative book made in partnership with Opus.

The announcement notes the project “will be a celebration of the band’s live legacy, captured by the very best with unprecedented and unique access plus collaboration from both Liam and Noel.”

The Limited Marquee Edition will be limited to just 100 copies globally. Measuring a whopping 62 by 45 centimeters, it includes 400 pages “printed in ultra-high-definition on luxury heavyweight 200gsm silk paper and then hand-bound by master binders,” “presented in a silk covered clamshell case.” Other editions include the “Midi” and “Retail” editions. Those who get the Marquee and Midi editions will receive a “special certification ‘tombstone’,” which looks like a commemorative ticket encased in acrylic. More information about the different versions will be available in the future and a sign-up form to “register your interest” can be found here.

Photographer Simon Emmett said in a statement:

“Being chosen to photograph the top-secret Oasis reunion portraits was a real honour. As the only photographer to document it from the very start through to the end of the tour, it’s been a truly unique and privileged experience and insight. The extraordinary mania and positivity has been intoxicating. Much more than a band reunion, it’s been a real cultural movement.”
