After weeks of hinting at new music, Ariana Grande finally shares some firm details about her upcoming single. The singer shared a countdown on her website this week which signaled her new era of music will officially start Friday.
It’s been over a year and a half since Grande shared her acclaimed record Thank U, Next, and it won’t be long before fans are able to hear its follow-up. Last week, the singer revealed in a succinct tweet that her next record will debut in October. Giving further information about her music, Grande’s website’s new countdown indicates that the album’s lead single, “Positions,” will be shared on Friday.
Along with specifying her “Positions” release, the singer’s website features a second countdown ending on October 30. Since Grande stated her entire album will arrive in October, many have concluded that the countdown is the singer’s way of sharing the record’s official release date.
ariana grande: “heres a countdown for my new album and single positions”
Grande’s announcement arrives after she teased fans with a couple snippets of her new music. A six-second clip shared to social media gives a taste of a vocal track on one of her songs. Before that, the singer hinted that she had something special in the works with Doja Cat.

Jon Stewart has been a tireless advocate for ensuring that 9/11 first responders and veterans receive the proper care they were promised by the government for their service and bravery, which has not been the case over the years. On Tuesday night, Stewart stopped by The Medhi Hasan Show where he was joined by activist John Feal. The two brought attention to veterans who were injured in toxic burn pits while serving in Iraq and Afghanistan but have yet to receive necessary treatments.
In a notable moment, Stewart set aside his usual tactic of bipartisanship, and he specifically ripped into Republican Party for routinely dropping the ball when it comes to first responders and veterans. “It’s an inability to empathize or to understand that other people may be suffering issues that you don’t suffer,” Stewart said before launching into a scathing criticism of the GOP. Via Mediaite:
“They’re the party of symbolism. It’s paper patriotism. It’s the party that, if Colin Kaepernick takes a knee, they’ll never watch another football game again,” the comedian added. “They stand for the anthem, but when it comes down — everybody supports the troops until the troops need support, and then they disappear. And it’s too much money. We can no longer always have money for war and then not have enough money for the warfighter.”
Stewart’s pointed anger at the Republican Party likely also stems from recent reports that the Trump Administration has been secretly siphoning money from the FDNY World Trade Center Health Program. The former Daily Show host has been championing the program for years as a means to provide healthcare to 9/11 first responders, but reportedly, the Treasury Department has been quietly diverting funds since Trump took office. But as fans of the comedian know, he’s not afraid to take the fight directly to Washington as he did back in June 2019. After being greeted to an empty room during a scheduled congressional hearing, Stewart didn’t hold back on the glaring failure unfolding before him. “What an incredible metaphor this room is for the entire process that getting healthcare and benefits for 9/11 first responders has come to,” he said. “Behind me, a filled room of 9/11 first responders — and in front of me, a nearly empty Congress.” The moment went instantly viral, which should’ve been a warning to politicians.
The NFL has gone to great lengths to ensure as few individuals as possible get infected with the coronavirus at team facilities or during the course of their work as players, coaches, and team personnel. But while Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is doing his part in Cleveland to keep the season moving along, the All-Pro pass-catcher also believes the virus is avoiding him on purpose.
After being sent home sick last week by the Browns, Beckham was asked about his run-in with illness and whether he was ever worried it may have been COVID-19. His response, in typical Beckham fashion, was that he had complete confidence in himself and his ability to avoid infection.
Full Odell Beckham Jr. quote on COVID-19: “Not in an arrogant way, I just don’t think COVID can get to me. I don’t think it’s going to get into this body. I don’t want no parts of it, it don’t want no parts of me. It’s a mutual respect.”
Leaving out whether the science of Beckham’s explanation stands up to scrutiny or whether he’s even right or wrong, it’s worth just sitting in the outlandish cockiness of a person who utters these words.
The full video of his answer is worth your time as well.
Rarely does Beckham say anything he does not truly mean, but with that little grin and the pause he takes as he gathers his thoughts to toss out a truly incredible take on his potential battle with this virus, shows that he is entirely serious about his odds here. Anyway, please wear a mask and wash your hands and keep your distance from others.
Amine puts on for his Portland neighborhood in the exuberant new video for “Woodlawn” from his summer album Limbo, filling the self-directed video with family, friends, and references to his hometown. Situated in the northeast section of Portland, Woodlawn is a mostly minority section of the city that has been undergoing a period of gentrification (which Amine spoke on in his debut album, Good For You, with “Turf”). To counteract the disappearing character of his section, Amine celebrates and displays the things that make it special to him.
In one scene, Amine seems to be enjoying a Trailblazers game in his room, which is decked out in team paraphernalia, while flanked as usual by best friends Yosief Berhe and Jonathan Ressom. In another, the crew off-roads in ATVs decorated with Limbo stickers, while for the group sequence, dozens of Amine’s friends dance to the song while wearing matching black outfits and Limbo masks.
The video for “Woodlawn” arrives a little under a month after the song made its television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with an innovative performance involving a hot air balloon. It’s the fourth video from Limbo after “Shimmy,” “Riri,” and “Compensating” featuring Young Thug. Shortly after the release of the album, Amine gave a live streamed performance on YouTube.
Not to get all Denzel GIF on you, but when I saw “Mel Brooks” trending on Twitter this morning, I feared the worst. He’s 94 years old… we’re in the middle of a deadly pandemic… his best buddy Carl Reiner passed away earlier this year. To my great relief, however, Mel Brooks is doing just fine. The reason the director of Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, and The Producers, three of the funniest movies ever, is trending is because he endorsed Joe Biden for president in what’s apparently his first political video.
“My father, @MelBrooks, is 94. He has never made a political video. Until now,” his son (and World War Z author) Max Brooks tweeted, along with the hashtags #MelBrooks4JoeBiden, #BidenHarris, and #GrassrootsDemHQ. “I’m Mel Brooks, and behind me you see my son and my grandson, and they can’t be with me. Why? Because of this coronavirus, and Donald Trump isn’t doing a damn thing about it,” Brooks says in the video. “So many people have died, and when you’re dead you can’t do much. So I’m voting for Joe Biden. I like Joe. Why do I like Joe? Because Joe likes facts. Joe likes science. Joe will keep us going. Take a tip from me – vote for Joe.”
If Biden doesn’t tweet “vote for me, so 94-year-old Mel Brooks can hug his son and grandson” within the next hour, his social media team should be fired.
Mister Rogers’ wife and Mel Brooks endorsed Biden and the Taliban and the KKK endorsed Trump in case you were still on the fence about this.
Ariana Grande and Adele have some very dedicated fans who often show their undying love by flooding Twitter with fancams and and supportive posts. But on occasion, their fans can turn ruthless. That’s what happened Wednesday when Grande and Adele fans, anxious for information on new music from the artists, mistakingly thought an indie record of the month company was sharing exclusive music from the pop stars.
Both Grande and Adele have been steadily teasing new releases, so when record club Vinyl Me, Please cryptically announced they had a “big new album” on the way, Grande and Adele fans swarmed their page with giddy excitement.
If you like the big new album announced today, you’ll want to check our store in an hour…
Much to the disappointment of the stans, Vinyl Me, Please’s “big new album” turned out to be Julien Baker’s upcoming record Little Oblivions, which she announced Wednesday with the lead single “Faith Healer.” In retaliation, the stans took over the record club’s replies with cries of distress.
It’s a big day for new release vinyl on the VMP store! Up first, we have an exclusive edition of the anticipated new album from @julienrbaker. Grab one of our 500 copies of Little Oblivions on transparent yellow vinyl. https://t.co/5imuL6U0Kkpic.twitter.com/6CNbpc2crh
Those familiar with Vinyl Me, Please’s platform were confused why Grande and Adele fans thought an indie company would be responsible for releases from some of today’s biggest pop stars.
Life always presents challenges, but for a variety of obvious reasons, 2020 has been a more difficult year than most. Musicians have been hit hard by the pandemic, and it certainly hasn’t been easy on FLETCHER. The rising pop star was preparing to have a huge year: She was set to release her debut album and go on tour with Niall Horan and Lewis Capaldi. As she notes in the latest Honda Backstage video, though, those things didn’t happen. Instead, she changed her plans and had a year she didn’t see coming.
FLETCHER isn’t coy about the fact that 2020 has been difficult, saying in the video, “Rock bottom: It’s a phase that I’m in right now. I can’t be in sessions, I can’t perform, I can’t release anything. What’s my identity? I’m feeling super lost but also going through this emotional turmoil with my ex.”
She and her ex, YouTuber and content creator Shannon Beveridge, quarantined together, which resulted in The S(ex) Tapes, an EP about the dissolution of their relationship. FLETCHER explained the project (for which Beveridge helped create the visual components), “The whole concept behind S(ex) Tapes is somebody being caught in their most vulnerable. That’s what these visuals are for me, and being captured by somebody who’s captured me in all of my forms over the last four years.”
The EP dropped in September, and with that in the (not-so-distant) past, FLETCHER is eager to find out what’s next for her: “I am on the other side of this. My truest, strongest self is on the other side of this, and I want to know what this person looks like so I can share that with the people in my life.”
Some “limited edition whiskeys” are simply regular expressions in a special bottle. You might end up drinking the very same juice that’s inside a standard release. Other limited editions are one-off single barrel or single cask drops that come directly from the head distiller’s stash. Then you have ultra-rare or very old releases, plus single malts, blends, or bourbons that were made for an event or anniversary that’ll never be seen again.
It’s a “limited” category full of endless opportunities for interesting expressions. Ironic, sure, but also tons of fun to explore.
The thing with limited edition whiskeys is that they’re amazingly varied in style, age, and, of course, price. You can find expressions in the $20-range and the $2,000-range, but it’s safe to say that a limited edition whiskey is generally going to cost more than your everyday bourbons or blended scotches. That doesn’t mean there aren’t affordable bottles out there, it just means that this particular list isn’t specifically aimed at saving you money (we have plenty of those, if you’re looking).
The 10 bottles below represent singular experiences in whiskey drinking. A few are released every year in limited quantities and a few are new releases just for 2020. Some are legit investment bottles and others are just an investment in a nice whiskey-sipping evening. Enjoy!
ABV: 50% Distillery: Jim Beam, Clermont, KY (Beam Suntory) Average Price:$22
The Whiskey:
This limited edition from Jim Beam is hand-selected by the legend Fred Noe. He chooses five and six-year-old barrels from the Beam warehouse and bottles them with no chill filtration. The result is a more robust version of the Jim Beam you know and have probably enjoyed shooting with a beer back at the bar.
Tasting Notes:
The classic Jim Beam touches of vanilla and sweet caramel are evident on the nose but accompanied by a clear rush of oak and hints of fruit. The palate delivers on those bourbon aromas with a nice Christmas spice matrix accompanied by an almost tropical fruit sweetness. The end has a nice balance of spice, sweet, and oak as it swiftly fades away.
Bottom Line:
You can snag a bottle of this for around $20. It tastes like it costs $40, easily. Yes, it’s an easy-drinker but that just means you can drink it on the rocks, in a highball, or in your favorite cocktail.
Woodford Reserve 2020 Kentucky Derby 146
ABV: 45.2% Distillery: Woodford Reserve Distillery, Woodford County, KY & Brown Forman Distillery, Shively, KY (Brown-Forman) Average Price:$50
The Whiskey:
This is standard Woodford Reserve in a collector’s edition bottle. Each year for over 20 years, Woodford Reserve has released a unique bottle with a hand-painted tribute to the Kentucky Derby on the label. While the juice inside isn’t exactly something to clamor over (it’s a solid bourbon all around), the unique art on the bottle is what aficionados are after. Previous year’s editions are already selling for a lot more than $50.
Tasting Notes:
The fairly high-rye mash bill leans into spice, oak, and a little bit of orange oil on the nose. The vanilla takes a back seat to a Christmas cake with plenty of dark spice, dried and candied fruit, and caramel sweetness. The end is lingering, spicy, and has a very distant hint of oaky smoke.
Bottom Line:
Look, you can get a bottle of Woodford Reserve for $30. This really is all about a cool bottle with a bespoke piece of art on the glass that’ll look good on your shelf and maybe make you some cash in a decade or two.
The Balvenie Single Barrel First Fill Aged 12 Years
ABV: 47.8% Distillery: The Balvenie Distillery, Dufftown, Speyside (William Grant & Sons) Average Price:$82
The Whisky:
This is a very limited release from an iconic distillery. Each release of this single cask expression only yields 300 bottles. That’s it. The barrels are first-fill ex-bourbon casks that are chosen specifically for their depth of flavors.
Tasting Notes:
There’s a definite bourbon edge to this sweet single malt with hints of spice, and toasted oak with plenty of vanilla and toffee. The palate leans into the toffee while bringing a real sense of spicy baked apples next to creamy vanilla pudding. All of that spice, fruit, and sweetness slowly dissipates as the dram warms your senses.
Bottom Line:
This is a solid sipper that needs a little water to really let it bloom. You can also make a killer old fashioned with this expression.
Method and Madness Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey
ABV: 46% Distillery: Irish Distillers, Midleton, County Cork (Pernod Ricard) Average Price:$84
The Whiskey:
This new limited release from Midleton Distillers down in County Cork, Ireland, is also one of the more unique drams on this list. The juice is a single pot still whiskey, meaning it’s made from both malted and unmalted barley in a, you guessed it, pot still. The whiskey then rests in both ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks before it’s blended. Finally, the whiskey is finished in chestnut casks, which is quickly becoming an interesting alternative to more traditional oak.
Tasting Notes:
There’s a clear maltiness on the nose next to grated fresh ginger and a savory herbal note beside a flutter of candy-sweetness. The juice holds onto that sweetness and marries it to the spice, adding a bit of ripe banana next to a crusty and buttery breadiness. A trace of slight bitterness comes in late with the spice and oak as the sip fades out.
Bottom Line:
This is a solid sipper, especially with a rock or two. It’s also very interesting in a cocktail where the whiskey can shine (think Manhattan).
Compass Box Peat Monster Arcana
ABV: 46% Distillery: Compass Box Whisky, London (Sourced) Average Price:$104
The Whiskey:
London-based blender Compass Box is making some seriously fine blended scotches right now. One of their pinnacles is their Peat Monster Arcana. The lion’s share of the blend comes from Talisker with help from Ardbeg and Miltonduff whiskies alongside a special French oak casked whisky to round out the blend.
Tasting Notes:
This is a “peat monster” in name only. The smokiness is drawn way back but clearly present with a note of dark chocolate next to cinnamon spice and a hint of — and bear with us — outboard motor smoke on the briny sea. It’s really enticing, especially if you grew up near the ocean. The palate edges away from the smoke with a bold fruity sweetness that mixes nicely with the spice and helps the sip keep the campfire intensity at bay.
Bottom Line:
This is a really good highball whisky with minerally fizzy water. It’s an even better pairing dram if you’re getting into funky cheeses.
Cardhu Aged 11 Years
ABV: 56% Distillery: Cardhu Distillery, Archiestown, Speyside (Diageo) Average Price:$106
The Whiskey:
Every year, Diageo releases their Rare By Nature series of single malts from around Scotland. This year’s limited releases open with a classic yet young single malt from Cardhu. The eleven-year-old expression was aged in a combination of refill, new, and ex-bourbon American oak barrels with an aim to draw out the whiskey’s sweeter and spicier edges.
Tasting Notes:
This is amazingly light with a bit of shaved wood next to big notes of tart and sweet apples and pineapple next to a rush of bright lemon zest and an underbelly of wet earth. The sweet fruits stay strong as the taste edges towards a flourish of warm, peppery spice next to a buttery biscuit. The end is long and full of that spice and sweetness. A little water really brings the fruitiness back into the foreground with a brightness that’s enrapturing.
Bottom Line:
This is a fantastic sipper and one of my top single malt drams of the year so far.
Aberfeldy 18
ABV: 43% Distillery: Aberfeldy Distillery, Aberfeldy, Highlands (Bacardi) Average Price:$130
The Whiskey:
This year’s Aberfeldy 18 is a special release from Malt Master Stephanie MacLeod. This expression takes Aberfeldy aged in refill bourbon casks and transfers that juice to red wine casks from Pauillac, Bordeaux. The finishing in funky red wine adds a wonderful depth to the already well-craft juice that helps this brand-new release really shine.
Tasting Notes:
The sip opens with a bushel of bright red berries leaning towards sweet/tart blackberries with a sense of oak and a hint of tobacco. The palate delivers on that nose and adds a cedar bark dimension with a nice hint of cinnamon and allspice next to dry tobacco and a slight earthiness. The plummy fruits, cedar, and spice round out the sip as it slowly fades into a nice, warm hug.
Bottom Line:
This is another of my favorite single malt drams of the year (so far). It’s just a wonderful sipping whisky that only gets bolder and tastier with a little water or a single rock.
Midleton Very Rare Vintage Release 2020
ABV: 40% Distillery: Irish Distillers, Midleton, County Cork (Pernod Ricard) Average Price:$210
The Whiskey:
Midleton Vert Rare Vintage releases are to Irish whiskey what a Pappy drop is to bourbon.
This year’s release is the final one from Irish Distiller’s Master Distiller Brian Nation and it’s a doozy. The whiskey is a blend of 13 to 35-year-old whiskeys aged in lightly charred ex-bourbon casks. The selection and blending of this renowned dram is a bit of a handoff between Nation and Irish Distiller’s new Master Distiller Kevin O’Gorman who worked with Nation to create this farewell expression.
Tasting Notes:
There’s a real sense of the oak with notes of sugar cane, bourbon vanilla, Christmas spices with a peppery edge, creamy chocolate, and a whiff of late-summer orchard fruit. That fruit carries you into the taste with an over-ripe pear essence next to orange zest, mild spice, and oak. There’s a slight bitterness on the backend that leads the fruit, oak, and spice slowly off into the distance.
Bottom Line:
This is just a great whiskey all around, Irish or not, and a top-five of the year for me. Sip it slowly with a little water so it can properly bloom.
Four Roses Limited Edition Small Batch
ABV: 55.7% Distillery: Four Roses Distillery, Lawrenceburg, KY (Kirin Brewing Co.) Average Price:$320
The Whiskey:
Every year Four Roses releases a Limited Edition Small Batch that often becomes the toast of the bourbon world. The bottle retails (from the distillery) for $150 but will cost you twice that on the secondary market. What’s in the bottle is a refined blend of high-rye and low-rye mash bills with fruity and spicy yeasts in the mix. The four bourbons in the blend are 12, 16, and 19-years-old.
Tasting Notes:
There’s classic bourbon vanilla, sweet caramel apple, honey, and oaky presence up top. The sip then edges more into stonefruit territory with a clear apricot taste next to red berries and rye spiciness that’s dialed-in. The end is long, full of fruit, rye spices, and a warming embrace that draws you back for more.
Bottom Line:
This is a really nice sipping whiskey. The addition of a rock or water really helps it open up. Is it worth the aftermarket price? That’s up for you to decide. But it does live up to its hype in our estimation.
William Larue Weller
ABV: 67.25% Distillery: Buffalo Trace Distillery, Frankfort, KY (Sazerac Company) Average Price:$700
The Whiskey:
This wheated bourbon from the world-renowned Buffalo Trace shingle is a hell of a dram. For the 2020 edition, the barrels were stored in two specific places in two specific warehouses for 12 years, where 73 percent of the juice was lost to the angels. The whiskey was then married and bottled exactly as it came out of the cask.
Tasting Notes:
This one is incredibly welcoming on the nose, with a creamy vanilla foundation mingling with notes of fatty pecans, caramel, and charred oak. Coffee bean bitterness sits next to ripe cherry fruity sweetness and that creamy vanilla. The oak keeps the sip going as a hint of dark chocolate arrives on the long finish.
Bottom Line:
This was my favorite expression from this year’s Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. It’s perfect with a single rock in a tumbler.
Fall has fully arrived, and with the colder temperatures soon to settle into the U.S., Netflix is settling into more heavy-duty bingewatching territory while also encouraging holiday-fueled escapism. You may not be doing the full-on family thing this year (and let’s face it, that’s probably a good thing), but you can still enjoy the togetherness of others right? Hey, you’ll be avoiding dinnertime arguments, so there’s something.
Plenty of original offerings are on the way, including the return of Netflix’s crown prestige jewel, The Crown, which has consistently captivated even the most hardcore non-royal-watchers among us. Meanwhile, Ron Howard’s stirring up Oscar buzz with a film starring Amy Adams and Glenn Close, who are both overdue for some gold themselves. Oh, and Shawn Mendes is doing the documentary thing, and Christmas is coming from both Kurt Russell and Dolly Parton.
Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) Netflix in November.
The Crown: Season 4 (Netflix series streaming 11/15)
This batch of new episodes introduces two major newcomers to the ensemble: The one and only Gillian Anderson as Prime Minister Margaret “Iron Lady” Thatcher and newcomer Emma Corrin as Princess Diana. Of major interest to royal watchers will be how the show frames the royal entrance of Diana, who would become the People’s Princess amid her stormy marriage to Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor). And as this teaser suggests, the fairy tale certainly isn’t everything that Diana expected it to be. The events of the season threaten to cast a shadow upon both the House of Windsor and Downing Street through high-pressure situations and cracks in the royal veneer.
Hillbilly Elegy (Netflix series streaming 11/24)
Amy Adams and Glenn Close both transform themselves for an Appalachian-set drama and even more swings at those elusive Oscar wins. Directed by Ron Howard, this film’s based upon J.D. Vance’s memoir of the same name, and the story follows how Vance, a Yale Law student, returns to his hometown for a family crisis. In the process, he’s dealing with high drama amid his mother’s addictive struggles. It’s a modern-day exploration of the American Dream as fueled by complex dynamics and a multigenerational take on the common-yet-uncommon journey that each family member faces in different ways.
Shawn Mendes: In Wonder (Netflix documentary film streaming 11/23)
The floppy-haired heartthrob takes fans behind the scenes of his demanding rise to the top, which led him towards a reckoning of sorts. The film promises a heartfelt glimpse into the pressures experienced while coming-of-age in front of absolutely everyone. While charting his path from precocious troubadour to global superstar, the project also includes never-before-seen footage of his private life and worldwide travels.
Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square (Netflix film streaming 11/22)
Everyone loves Dolly, so at least there’s one thing that you won’t be arguing about with your relatives this season. Featuring an album full of original Dolly music, this film (which co-stars Christine Baranski) revolves around how the coldest of hearts can melt in the face of family, love, and the enduring Christmas spirit of a small town.
The Christmas Chronicles: Part Two (Netflix film streaming 11/25)
Kurt Russell’s hot Santa returns two years after Kate and Teddy saved Christmas. Kate’s now a cynical teenager with family drama, and for some reason, she’s not thrilled to spend Christmas in Cancun. The trouble truly begins when a mysterious toublemaker, Belsnickel, plots to destroy Christmas and make a ground zero out of the North Pole. Russell’s here to help save the day, and yes, Goldie Hawn’s along for the ride.

Atlanta’s Deante Hitchcock and Oakland’s Guapdad 4000 reunite on “Déjà Vu” from Hitchcock’s upcoming deluxe version of his debut album, Better. Over a chilly beat, the two rappers reminisce on past paramours, lamenting the mistakes that cost them chances at happiness. Hitchcock sums it up in his verse, theorizing that “‘Fallin’ in love is bad for your health,’” as a statement, is “cap.”
The two rappers last linked up on “Orgasm Full Of Pain,” from Guapdad’s amusing Falcon Fridays series of single releases. The pair likely linked up in Atlanta at the star-studded recording sessions for Dreamville’s Revenge Of The Dreamers III, to which both were invited and where Guapdad became a breakout star, and since then, they’ve developed smooth working chemistry that has delivered some spectacular results.
After originally dropping Better in May and supporting it with videos for “Attitude” and “I Got Money Now,” Hitchcock allowed a few months to go by before announcing its deluxe version, joining the ever-growing list of artists utilizing the strategy to extend the lifespan of their projects in lieu of touring this year.
