Lucky Daye And Leon Bridges Try To Get Through To Their Self-Centered Lovers On ‘All About You’

Lucky Daye and Leon Bridges entered the R&B and soul world about a half decade apart with Leon’s entrance coming in 2015 courtesy of his Coming Home debut while Lucky’s came in 2019 with his Painted debut. While one may not have paired the two artists together initially, the two have a bit more in common than expected. They both hail from the South, with Leon and Lucky calling Fort Worth and New Orleans home, respectively, and both were also nominated for Grammy awards for their debut albums. Now the two singers come together for their first-ever collaboration, a soulful number entitled “All About You.”

Lucky and Leon first teased the track last week in a photo that presented the two singers on stage together with a drum set and keyboard setup behind them. Delivering the truck without making their fans wait too long for it, “All About You” finds them voicing their frustrations about a partner who only seems to care about themselves and their feelings. “It’s all about you / It ain’t about me,” Lucky and Leon sing on the track. “I got feelings too / That you clearly can’t see.” Frustrated with their failed attempts to appeal to their love interest, they are both pushed closer and closer to the decision of moving on to make themselves happy.

“All About You” follows Leon Bridge’s “Sweeter” single, which served as a celebration of Blackness in his Texas hometown. As for Lucky Daye, the track is his third collaboration of the year following “Can You Blame Me” with Kehlani and “Faces” with Buddy.

You can listen to “All About You” in the video above.

Kehlani is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Justin Bieber Reflects On His Turbulent Rise To Fame With ‘Lonely’ Featuring Benny Blanco

For almost five years, Justin Bieber fans waited and wondered when their beloved pop star would make his return with his fifth album. Moments into the new year, Bieber gave that that answer with the announcement of his “Yummy” single, which would later appear on his fifth album, Changes. While some may have believed that Changes was the only full-length effort fans would get from Bieber, the pop singer made it clear in the last month that may be more in store from him in 2020. Fueling rumors towards his sixth album, Bieber returns with Benny Blanco by his side for his “Lonely” single.

The new single finds the two working together for the fourth time in their careers, including Bieber’s No. 1 tracks “Love Yourself” and “Cold Water” with MO and Major Lazer. For their latest collaboration, Bieber and Benny tone things down in comparison to their past upbeat records. On the record, Bieber reflects on his rocky rise to fame filled with the “sh*t I did as an idiot kid,” as he says on the track. While he admits to the wrongs he committed along the way, Bieber says it was even harder to navigate through it all without someone he could trust.

The single arrived after Bieber launched a “new era” with Chance The Rapper for his “Holy” single. The track was attached to a heart-warming video that found Bieber and actress and singer Ryan Destiny as a couple who suffered from a series of unfortunate events in their life, all over which pushed them closer and closer to rock bottom. Luckily a Good Samaritan arrived to save their day and provide them a momentary wave of comfort.

Nas And Joey Badass ‘Keep It Moving’ On A Soul-Sampling Track With Statik Selektah And Gary Clark Jr.

If I told you a few years ago that Nas would be more active than Joey Badass in 2020, you would’ve probably laughed at me or told me stick to my trap music.

However, that’s how it’s been over the past three years. Nas has delivered three albums during that span and Joey Badass is just making his return with what fans hope is an album just as good as his first two efforts, B4.Da.$$ and All Amierkkkan Badass.

The track, which is set to appear on Selektah’s upcoming The Balancing Act project, is wrapped in a soulful sample of Isaac Hayes’ “Walk On By.” Without a hook for the two rappers work around, Nas and Joey Badass trade a pair of verses on the track with Nas leading the way before letting Joey steps through with some bars of his own. As a whole, the track is centered the two rappers’ determination to not let life’s obstacles and hardships slow them down or stop their from their overarching goals.

“Keep It Moving” arrives after Nas delivered his thirteenth album, King’s Disease, and Joey Badass made his return in the summer with The Light Pack EP.

Lana Del Rey Begs For A New Chance At Love On Her New Single, ‘Let Me Love You Like A Woman’

Lana Del Rey is currently working on her Norman F*cking Rockwell follow-up, an album that she’s been teasing over the past couple of months. Despite the teases, she has yet to give fans a time frame for when they can expect the new album. However, it seems like it will be sooner than later as the singer unveils the album’s lead single, “Let Me Love You Like A Woman.” Sharing her first solo single of the year, Lana delivers her latest track, “Let Me Love You Like A Woman.” The track finds her speaking to an unknown love interest that she has seemingly known for only a short time. Despite this, Del Rey is prepared to run off with them and live out the enjoyable future she envisions with them.

The single arrives after Lana Del Rey revealed its title in an update about her Chemtrails Over The Country Club album last month. In the update, which she gave from the set of the music video for the album’s title track, she said the album would be “coming out soon,” but in the music industry, “soon” can mean anywhere between three months and three years. If the album arrives by the end of the year, it would be Del Rey’s second project of the year following her Violet Bent Backwards Over The Grass poetry book.

On a more recent note, Del Rey joined Matt Maeson for a gentle remix of his “Hallucinogenics” track.

The Wu-Tang Clan Has Opened A Surprise Pop-Up Shop In West Hollywood

Attention Wu-Tang fans! This morning, the Wu-Tang Clan announced on their official social media channels that they’d be setting up in West Hollywood, California with a surprise pop-up shop that runs from today, Thursday, October 15th, until Sunday, October 18th. What will you find at the Wu-Tang pop-up? We have no clue at this point, but we’re expecting all sorts of limited-edition apparel drops, maybe a vinyl pressing or two, and, if we’re lucky, the black and yellow Wu-Tang Nike Air Force 1s.

Right now details on what is going down at the pop-up are scarce, few if any social media posts linked to the event exist right now, all we really know is that the shop has the operating hours of 11 am to 7 pm and we can assume you’ll need a mask to enter, per county regulations. The Wu-Tang Clan twitter account has been steadily posting images of Wu-Tang apparel so we’re assuming this is a mostly apparel-focused drop.

The Wu-Tang pop-up shop is located at 7667 Melrose Ave a few blocks from Pink’s Hot dogs and a whole host of other dope shops and restaurants, so you can make a whole socially-distanced day out of it. Be aware — lines have been reported around the block.

Jimmy Kimmel And ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ Paid Tribute To The Late Regis Philbin

Regis Philbin is one of the many people who died in what’s been a tragic year, and his death is still being felt among those who know him best. That includes at ABC, where he hosted shows including Who Wants To Be A Millionaire for decades. With the show back on the air and Jimmy Kimmel hosting, it paid special tribute to Philbin, who died in July.

In a nearly two minute clip, the show highlighted some fun moments Philbin had behind the scenes with celebrities and guests, including Dana Carvey doing his Regis impression with the legend next to him. There’s also a very funny scene where Rosie O’Donnell excitedly hugs him before taping a celebrity edition of Millionaire, and he says “give her $100 bucks and get her out of here” in a very funny deadpan.

The video also shows a moment between Kimmel and Philbin interacting on the Millionaire set, as the former host showed up on the first day of filming with Kimmel at the helm. They toured the set and chatted for a bit, and later Kimmel reflected on the importance of the moment.

“It was great to see him and it was just exciting to have him there,” Kimmel said. “Because this is his show. I’m hosting, but this is his show.”

Kimmel told Philbin that he “built this house” during the tour, and gave him high praise in person.

“Regis: no one will ever be better at doing this than you. No one. Ever,” he said. “And I’m not just being false humble by saying that. It’s true. You’re the best.”

Reflecting back on that day, Kimmel said “it’s like he left me a beautiful car,” and the segment finished with some touching moments of Regis on set with others over the years. It was a fitting tribute that showed just how big an impact Philbin was on the show and how much he means to the new production to this day, and served as a touching reminder of his passing ahead of the show’s return this weekend.

Spider-Cat In ‘Spider-Man: Miles Morales’ Has Gamers Very Excited

There are a lot of reasons to be excited about Spider-Man: Miles Morales. The gameplay trailers and footage we’ve seen thus far look spectacular, as the game takes full advantage of the high-powered PlayStation 5 for an incredibly realistic appearance and the ability to create a sprawling world that doesn’t require load screens to get from one corner to the other.

For many, the new Spider-Man title is enough reason to purchase a PS5 on release day, so they can dive into one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year from Day 1. In case you weren’t totally sold on the game, Game Informer released some more gameplay video on their YouTube channel that shows a sidekick that you pick up at some point when you rescue a stolen bodega cat named Spider-Man who eventually gets a mask of its own and helps you fight bad guys by leaping out of your bookbag and scratching them.

I am not a comic book person so I have no idea if Spider-Cat is, like, an actual thing or if it’s a delightful addition by the game, but it certainly has me even more intrigued by what all Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be bringing to the table if “fighting crime with a masked cat in your backpack” is an actual, real thing.

Flo Milli Is The ‘Mean’ Girl Snot Desires In The Haunting Video For Their New Collab

After letting her debut project, Ho, Why Is You Here?, marinate for a few months, Flo Milli is back in action, but this time it comes in the form of a new collaboration with fellow Southerner Snot. Hailing from Florida, Snot recruited Flo Milli for their new effort, “Mean,” one they have released with a new Cole Bennett-directed video.

The visual begins with Snot hiding a gun in his waist and walking out of a classroom as a group of people sprint out of the room behind him. After discarding what appears to be incriminating evidence, Snot casually walks away from the scene but soon after he’s approached by a cop. He then discards of the officer before making his way to Flo Milli’s house where she’s in the midst of an argument with her love interest. Once again, Snot takes matters into his own hands and gets rid Flo Milli’s problem for her.

The video comes at the backhand of what’s been a breakout year for Flo Milli. After making some noise with her SVW-sampling video for “Weak,” one that finds her dismissing the men in her life that she labels as inadequate among other things, the Alabama native made her presence known with Ho, Why Is You Here? The project was highlighted by standout efforts including “In The Party” and “Not Friendly.” Her year continued with added promotion to the project in the form of a flashy video for “Send The Addy” and “May I.”

You can watch the video for “Mean” above.
