Since signing with Dead Oceans, Greg Mendez has been a busy musician. But even touring with Angel Olsen and Allegra Krieger couldn’t stop him from finding time to pursue his solo ventures.

Today (October 15), shared the official video for his latest single, “Alone.” The track Greg Mendez’s second song from his forthcoming EP First Time/Alone. “Alone” is a depressing examination of loneliness brought forth by heartbreak

“I’m alone outside your house/ An angel is knocking at your door, I want more/ Than what I came here looking for,” sings Greg.

That exhausting feeling is amplified in the official music video directed by Luke LeCount. Over on Instagram Luke penned a touching note to his collaborators for the opportunity. “This is arguably my favorite (& maybe best?) video I’ve ever directed & I owe it all to @teefdat,” they wrote. “Sean’s been working hard at learning how to shoot film & taught me a lot during this process. The best thing about being an artist is getting to see people you love excel at what they do. This video was shot entirely on 16mm film, which was a first for Sean & I. So cool to get the opportunity (aka a real budget) to make this happen. Greg writes songs that get stuck in your head & making stuff with him & getting to know him better through this process was/is something I’m grateful for.”

The Miami Heat continued their preseason slate on Tuesday afternoon by playing host to the San Antonio Spurs. While no one on the Heat played more than 24 minutes, the team was able to take care of business against Victor Wembanyama and co., 120-117, as the two teams continue their march towards the start of the regular season.

Tyler Herro had a nice night, going for 14 points and four assists, and after it was all over, he joined Bally Sports Sun to give a debriefing on the game. There was just one problem: Herro was kinda distracted while he was trying to answer questions, because there was a fight happening in the stands and he just could not take his eyes off of it.

“I’m sorry, I’m distracted by a fight up there,” Herro said while talking about the team’s preparations for the start of the regular season. “This is crazy.”

While I concede that I do not watch every second of every public appearance Tyler Herro has ever made, I do not think I have ever seen him as spellbound as he was watching whatever the heck was going on in the stands at the Kaseya Center. Anyway, it’s been a second, so let us use this as the latest reminder that fighting is bad.

Last year, GloRilla solidified herself at the BET Hip-Hop Awards as rap’s breakout rookie. With several viral tracks under her belt, she opted to perform both fan favorites “FNF (Let’s Go)” and “Tomorrow.”

Today (October 15), GloRilla returned to the annual ceremony with an even more impressive discography, including her debut studio album, Glorious. This time GloRilla returned to support her fellow Collective Music Group (CMG) label mate, Big Boogie.

The entertainers treated the packed crowd to a swagger-filled performance of their viral collaboration, “Bop!” With each rapper proud to call Memphis home, the pair used the city’s infectious song on the track, but dance moves on stage. Initially, the track gained traction on TikTok thanks in part to user created choreography. While GloRilla and Big Boogie proudly performed the choreography, the two had to hit the Memphis jook.

In addition to her high-energy performance, GloRilla already secured numerous nominations, including one for Best Collaboration (“Wanna Be” with Megan Thee Stallion), Best Live Performer, Song Of The year (“Yeah Glo!”), Hip-Hop Album Of The Year (Ehhthang Ehhthang), Hip-Hop Artist Of The Year, Hustler Of The Year, and Impact Track (“Yeah Glo!”).

Glorious is out 10/11 via CMG/Interscope. Find more information here.

The 2024 BET Hip-Hop Awards were filled with flower giving. One of the rap legends receiving their flowers include Trina.

On the heels of the release of the “Here We Go Again” rapper’s autobiography she hit the stage to perform a medley of her cultural impactful tracks including “Baddest B*tch,” “B R Right,” “Look Back at Me,” and “Nann.” But as an ode to her Dade County upbringing, Trina brought out her God-daughter and fellow rapper Yung Miami to perform “Pull Over!”

Although Yung Miami’s Caresha Please podcast has returned in full effect, and she was a special guest during Usher’s Past Present Future Tour, the cameo at marked her first performance since indictment against her on-and-again-off-again boyfriend Diddy into which she has reportedly been looped.

On stage dressed in a costume honoring Trina’s original look, Yung Miami let it all hang. The rapper didn’t mess a beat as she paid tribute to her Godmother. Between her public spat with former City Girls mate JT and the sea of lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend Diddy, fans poured out their support across platforms such as X (formerly known as Twitter).

Watch Trina’s performance at the 2024 BET Hip-Hop Awards featuring Yung Miami above.

Travis Scott has had quite the bounce back from the Astroworld Tragedy.

From his chart-topping return album Utopia to his earth-shaking supporting tour, Travis is back on top. Today (October 15), the 2024 BET Hip-Hop Awards crowned that impressive feat by awarding Travis Scott the I Am Hip Hop Award.

However, not everyone is pleased with Travis being honored. During his speech, Travis Scott addressed the naysayers and early career critics. “I can from this generation where they considered us nowhere near hip-hop,” he said. “And everyday I try to push the sound as a producer. Nobody knew what the f*ck I was trying to do [in the beginning]. But I always had this idea and vision…still to this day. Just to take the sound to the next level.”

That criticism is far from over. When Travis was announced as this year’s recipient, users online questioned the decision. However, in the caption of the announcement post (viewable here), BET seemingly replied to the pushback, writing: “From Astroworld vibes to breaking records with legendary tracks while making every stage feel like a movie, Travis truly embodies the culture. This award ain’t just a trophy; it’s a salute to his undeniable influence, hustle, and the way he keeps the game on ‘Sicko Mode’!”

(WARNING: Spoilers for Shrinking will be found below.)

One of my favorite shows from 2023 is moments away from returning for its second season. Shrinking is gearing up to kick off its second season which should be jam-packed with 12 episodes of humor in all forms — dry, awkward, dark, self-deprecating, and more. Jimmy (played by Jason Segel) continues to work through the grief behind his wife’s death as he also raises his daughter Alice (played by Lukita Maxwell) and works to improve their relationship. Jimmy also works as an unorthodox therapist who nearly crosses ethical lines, something that his coworkers Gaby (played by Jessica Williams (who is phenomenal in this series)) and Paul (played by Harrison Ford (who is also awesome)) witness regularly.

That’s what’s in store for you if you’re just checking into Shrinking. If you’re all caught up, here’s when you can expect season two to premiere:

When Does Shrinking Season 2, Episode 1 And 2 Come Out?

The first two episodes in Shrinking season two, titled “Jimmying” and “I Love Pain,” will arrive on October 16. Those episodes will be available on Wednesday, 10/16 on Apple TV+ starting at 3am EST/12am PST. The synopses for “Jimmying” and “I Love Pain” can be found below:

“Jimmying”

Jimmy grapples with his guilt over Grace; Paul makes a decision about his relationship; Liz tries to help Gaby find balance in her busy life.

“I Love Pain”

Paul and Jimmy disagree about Sean’s treatment plan; Gaby’s sister asks for her help; Liz has an idea for boosting business at the food truck.

‘Shrinking’ season 2 premieres on October 16. Season 1 is now streaming on Apple TV+.
