A Pair Of Turnstile Songs Soundtrack A New Tony Hawk-Featuring Ad For Taco Bell

Turnstile is definitely the kind of band that would have been on a Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater soundtrack had they been active when the original games were released. In fact, their music actually will appear in the upcoming Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 Remastered next month. Ahead of that, though, the band and the skateboarding icon have made their collaborative debut thanks to Taco Bell.

In a new, skatepark-set ad for the Build Your Own Luxe Cravings Box that has started airing recently, Hawk is briefly featured, while Turnstile’s “Seein’ Stars” and “Birds” play in the background.

Meanwhile, Hawk recently discussed his original game soundtracks, saying, “It was fun because we weren’t under many regulations for that game. It had never been done before, so Activision gave us free reign to do whatever we wanted, so I definitely wanted to keep the culture alive in it and represent it well. So I just threw out bands that I heard growing up at the skate park, largely rooted in ’80s punk rock. It was like Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Sex Pistols, Gang Of Four, Dead Kennedys, and I didn’t realize that that would be such an iconic part of the game as well, and people really identified with the music. I think it opened up people’s eyes to new bands and new genres.”

‘Splitsville’: Everything To Know So Far About The Dakota Johnson-Starring Open Relationship Comedy

Splitsville Neon top
Neon

Getting extended applause at Cannes is a good sign for a movie, so Splitsville is off to a strong start ahead of its wide release: At the festival last month, the Dakota Johnson-starring movie enjoyed a six-minute ovation, as Variety notes.

The movie is the second from writer/director/producer/star Michael Angelo Covino, following his 2019 debut The Climb; His co-star, co-writer, and co-producer from that movie, Kyle Marvin, is back on board in the same roles for Splitsville, too.

As the film’s release nears, read on to learn everything you need to know about the movie before lining up at the theater.

Plot

The official logline reads:

“When Ashley (Arjona) asks for a divorce, the good-natured Carey (Marvin) runs to his friends, Julie (Johnson) and Paul (Covino), for support. Their secret to happiness is an open marriage; that is, until Carey crosses the line and throws all of their relationships into chaos.”

In a Hollywood Reporter interview, Covino explained, “The intention was very much not to make any kind of commentary on open relationships. I don’t have an agenda — Kyle and I don’t have a horse in this race. We’re not trying to make a statement about whether it works or doesn’t work. Everything we do starts from character. For us, it’s always about exploring these absurd situations. […] But I think, by nature, the inevitable conclusion of a story like this ends up being about some kind of acceptance — or at least reaching a point where you’re OK with things — because that’s kind of all we can do in life.

Cast

The cast is led by Dakota Johnson, Adria Arjona, Kyle Marvin, Michael Angelo, Nicholas Braun, David Castañeda, and O-T Fagbenle.

Covino told The Hollywood Reporter of the cast:

“We really lucked out, casting two incredible actresses [Johnson and Arjona] who are wildly funny, but each in a way that felt perfectly tailored to their characters. […] Everyone who came onto this movie understood the tone. No one was winking at the camera. They all understood the sandbox we were playing in — where every character believes their problem is the most important problem in the world, and they’re playing it with complete commitment. There’s nothing funnier than that to me.”

Release Date

The film is set to hit select theaters on August 22, followed by a wide release on September 5.

Trailer

Cardi B Wonders ‘Am I The Drama?’ On Her Long-Awaited Second Album

Cue the Michael Scott memes — it’s happening! Cardi B has at last announced the release date of the follow-up to her 2018 debut, Invasion Of Privacy. After years of delays, false starts, and outright stage fright, the Bronx bombshell is back “Outside” on September 19th with Am I The Drama?, her first album in seven years. Cardi teased the announcement on Sunday (June 22), warning fans that “Time’s Up,” just after the release of the first (official) single, “Outside.” She followed up today with the release date and cover art, which features Cardi in a red bodysuit with a massive raven perched on her shoe.

The road to Cardi’s sophomore album has been long and winding; she previously promised a release in 2022 after giving a status update back in 2020. Fans thought she would begin the rollout with “Bongos” back in 2023, but then, she delayed the album again. She gave a release window last year, but withdrew it a couple of months later, revealing that she was pregnant with her third child in August — just weeks before giving birth.

Along the way, she shared a slew of reasons for the delay, from insecurity about the project’s potential reception to her featured artists taking too long to turn in their contributions. Certainly, there’s a lot riding on this release; Invasion Of Privacy was a culture shifting debut, opening the door for a wave of successful female rappers to follow in her footsteps, including Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, GloRilla, Sexyy Red, and more. We’ll finally get to find out what kind of impact its follow-up will have in just three months.

Am I The Drama? is due on 9/19 via Atlantic Records. You can find more info here.

Caroline Polachek Contributes The Cinematic ‘On The Beach’ To ‘Death Stranding 2’

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, the latest release from video game auteur Hideo Kojima, is out soon, with a release date set for June 26. It was revealed last month that Caroline Polachek had contributed a new song to the game, and that’s true: The song is called “On The Beach” and it’s out now.

Polachek says of the song:

“‘On The Beach’ was actually one of the first songs I ever made with Danny L Harle, but it was too alien and industrial — almost too evil — to work sense on Pang, so I set it aside til the right thing came along. When Kojima approached me about DS2, I showed him the sketch of it and he agreed that it was a perfect fit, and so eight years after starting this song, it got reopened, extended, and finished for the perfect setting.”

In a May interview, Kojima said of working with Polachek, “I was listening to Caroline Polachek last year and became a big fan of hers. After I put that on my Instagram, she contacted me, and then we DM’d. We kept in touch and eventually met up in Paris, and that’s when she told me she wanted to write a new song for Death Stranding 2. She works very fast. You heard her song when you saw the Plate Gate — it’s called ‘On The Beach.’”

GloRilla Counts Her Blessings In The Sunny ‘Rain Down On Me’ Video With Kirk Franklin

GloRilla might be best known for her hard-hitting turn-up anthems like “Procedure,” “Whatchu Kno About Me,” and “Yeah Glo!” but on her debut album Glorious, she shows off multiple sides of herself, from the loving “I Luv Her” with T-Pain to the gracious “Rain Down On Me” with gospel mainstay Kirk Franklin. Today, Glo released the video for the latter, tapping deeper into her roots in the church for a visual that reflects the inspirational message of the song.

While “Rain Down On Me” hails from Glo’s 2024 debut, she’s already begun work on its follow-up, on which she focuses on “stepping into a new era,” as she told fans during a live chat. “My next album…I’m working on [it],” she said. “I can’t tell y’all exactly when it’s coming, what year it’s coming, but I’m doing something different.”

The first glimpse of the new era has already been released in the form of the tender “Typa,” which she dropped earlier this month with a video featuring Keyshia Cole, who is sampled on the song. Elsewhere, she’s expanded her portfolio of feature performances with collaborators Gelo, Lil Baby, and J-Hope.

Watch the video for GloRilla’s “Rain Down On Me” featuring Kirk Franklin above.
