Arctic Monkeys Release The Sultry Single ‘Body Paint’ With A New Video

Arctic Monkeys have been prepping for the release of their forthcoming album The Car through stunning singles like “There’d Better Be A Mirrorball” and crazy shows like the one at Kings Theater in Brooklyn. Today, they’re back with a new track from the LP called “Body Paint” with a video filmed in London.

The four-and-a-half-minute ballad moves slowly, twinkling and glowing as Alex Turner’s voice serves as the centerpiece: “For a master of deception and subterfuge / You’ve made yourself quite the bed, to lie in,” he sings. The build-up leads to stunning guitar riffs and a cathartic outro where Turner’s vocals become more free-spirited and let go. “Body Paint” falls only halfway through the album, and they’re set to perform it tonight on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

About making this new record, Turner said in an interview, “There’s a bunch of Led Zeppelin and Stones records where they were in this house in the country, and then they went and sorted it all out and overdubbed it elsewhere. We went there in the summer, took all the equipment, got the raw material and then took it on elsewhere.”

Watch the video for “Body Paint” above.

The Car is out 10/21 via Domino. Pre-order it here.

Trevor Noah Was Physically Pained When Biden Asked If A Dead Congresswoman Was In The Room: ‘On The Upside, At Least He Noticed She Was Not There’

Joe Biden gave the Republicans who regularly question his mental acuity a cringe-worthy feast of material on Wednesday when he attempted to give a shout-out to former Indiana congresswoman Jackie Walorski during the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health. Walorski, of course, was not there — as she and two of her staffers were tragically killed in a car crash on August 3, while returning from a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Trevor Noah shared the painfully awkward clip with viewers on Wednesday night, which he practically had to watch from between his fingers. While thanking lawmakers at the event from the podium, Biden asked, “Jackie, are you here? Where’s Jackie?” And yes, it was as awkward as you’d imagine.

Noooooooooo!,” was Noah’s immediate reply to the unfortunate gaffe. “Noooo, Joe! What are you doing?!? Ahhhhhhh… that’s so awkward! And his explanation didn’t help. He was like, ‘Of course I knew Jackie was dead. I was looking for Jackie Kennedy. Where’s Jackie Kennedy? Where are you, Jackie? Where’s Jackie O?”

But Noah, in a desperate search for some silver lining, managed to find a sliver: “I mean, I guess on the upside he noticed that she wasn’t there. That’s a good thing! It could’ve been much worse if he was like, ‘Where’s Jackie? Oh, there she is. There’s Jackie. Everyone look at Jackie!”

While Noah acknowledged that many people are pointing to the whoopsie as yet another senior moment from the soon-to-be ​​octogenarian, The Daily Show host insists that, “if anything, this makes Biden a better president. Think of how hard he must be working right now to keep Americans safe knowing that Osama bin Laden is still out there somewhere.”

You can watch the full clip above, beginning around the 3:45 mark.

Big Boi’s Collection Pet Owls Gives Fans Another Reason To Love The Rapper

As much fuss is made about the post-Outkast antics of Andre 3000, in truth, both halves of the vaunted Atlanta rap duo have some pretty out-there hobbies. Big Boi, long considered the more down-to-earth member of the pioneering group, recently revealed that he’s gotten into falconry by way of some great big owls that he brought to Stankonia Studios. His post with his feathered pets — one of which is appropriately named Hootie — has rap fans going gaga over his unusual interest.

“Redman is a professional skydiver, Bun B is making award-winning burgers, [and] Big Boi is damn near an owl whisperer,” one fan wrote. “I love our OG’s.” Another noted that “Andre appears in random stores playing the flute like an elusive woodland sprite [and] big boi has domesticated owls as companions. I love it.” Yet another was amused at the juxtaposition between the two rappers’ reputations: “It’s interesting how Andre was always painted as the eccentric one when Big Boi is over here being a libertarian who’s obsessed with kate bush and has a pet owl,” they wrote.

That last comment was a commentary on the recently resurfaced Pitchfork video in which Big Boi discussed his love for Kate Bush’s 1985 hit “Running Up That Hill,” which itself experienced a resurgence in popularity due to its prominent appearance in the fan-favorite Netflix sci-fi show Stranger Things. He also recorded a song with the singer which has yet to see the light of day.

Brent Faiyaz Seems To Only Makes Things Worse In His Tense Video For ‘All Mine’

The leader of the new school and R&B’s favorite “toxic” king, Brent Faiyaz is back with another video for “All Mine” from his latest album Wasteland. “Toxic” is a term Faiyaz is hesitant to claim and beliefs have been placed on him by the internet as a response to living his life and sharing his seemingly distasteful relationship takes with the world. Call it toxic if you will, but to the F*ck The World crooner it’s simply “some real sh*t.”

Continuing the black and white visual theme with “Loose Change,” Faiyaz also fuels the less than favorable depiction of a romantic partner as he has his main lady, played by model Joan Smalls waiting on him at dinner while he gallivants through the city. Admittedly, Faiyaz knows that “[he’s] been the worst/ but [he’ll] love you better/ if you let [him],” as the song lyrics go.

Yet, as the poetic lyrics progress, he is adamant that if you (or Smalls) are willing to ” catch a flight/ change the weather/ [he] promises forever.” At this point Smalls is alternating between the var and her table at a lavish restaurant, crying in and out of the restroom and profusely checking her phone. As you can imagine, everything that occurs afterwards is all bad.

Watch the chaos unfold in the “All Mine” video above.

The Trailer For Season Five Of ‘Yellowstone’ Might Make You Want To Put On A Cowboy Hat And Break Something

At last, it is finally time for Oscar-winner Kevin Costner to wear a cowboy hat again. The very popular television series Yellowstone is somehow heading into its fifth season. It’s almost as if time is real and constantly passing us by? A trailer for the fifth season of the beloved Kevin Costner vehicle dropped on Thursday, courtesy of the Paramount Network.

The trailer teases an action and drama-packed season that focuses on the most exciting thing of all: politics in the state of Montana. The season’s ominous tagline is, “power comes at a price.” In case you haven’t heard about the very popular and ruthless show about a dysfunctional rich and powerful family (sound familiar?), here’s an official description from Paramount:

Yellowstone is a drama series that follows the Dutton family, led by patriarch John Dutton (Costner). The Duttons control the largest contiguous ranch in the U.S. and must contend with constant attacks by land developers, clashes with an Indian reservation and conflict with America’s first national park.

In season five, John Dutton and his gravelly voice will take on the role of Montana governor. Yellowstone returns for season five with a two-part premiere on Sunday, November 13 on the Paramount Network. Along with Costner, Yellowstone, from co-creators Taylor Sheridan and John Linson, stars Kelly Reilly, Luke Grimes, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, and Gil Birmingham.

Trump Reportedly Appointed Rudy Giuliani To Head Up His Legal Team Because He Was The Only Person Willing To Try To Overturn An Election

If there’s one person you might never want to direct to “go wild,” it’s Rudy Giuliani. Yet that’s exactly what Donald Trump apparently did when it came to letting the former New York City Mayor loose on trying to convince the world that the 2020 presidential election should be overturned.

In her book, Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America, The New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman talks about Trump’s decision to put his old pal Rudy in charge of Operation Overturn The Election. And how it wasn’t the pair’s decades-long friendship that got Rudy the gig — but his willingness to actually attempt to claim that a totally legitimate presidential election was rigged. Which no other lawyer worth their license to practice was apparently willing to do, and understandably so.

According to The Independent, Haberman writes that Giuliani’s eagerness to embark on The Big Lie is what really sealed the deal (and his fate) on being appointed the head of Trump’s personal legal team. The book claims that Trump gave Rudy his blessing to take control of the narrative regarding the 2020 presidential election, and that all bets were off when it came to any restrictions.

“Okay, Rudy, you’re in charge,” Trump reportedly said. “Go wild, do anything you want. I don’t care. My lawyers are terrible.”

To his credit, Giuliani did indeed “go wild,” as evidenced by his press conference at Four Seasons Total Landscaping. And his goo-leaking head. And farting during a hearing. And telling an Arizona election official that “We’ve got lots of theories” about voter fraud — “we just don’t have the evidence.” And apparently being the one who, in a drunken stupor, advised Trump to just go ahead and declare victory on Election Night in the first place.

Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America will be released on October 4.
