The View announce new album ‘Exorcism Of Youth’ and UK shows

The View have announced their new album ‘Exorcism Of Youth’ along with plans for a pair of UK shows this May.

The new record is out June 9 via Cooking Vinyl and will be the first from the indie rockers’ in eight years, having spent five years apart before reconvening in 2022 – you can pre-order/pre-save it here.

The first taste of ‘Exorcism Of Youth’ arrives in the shape of lead single ‘Feels Like’, which frontman Kyle Falconer described as “anthemic from the get go”.

“Even though under the surface it’s about somewhere everyone’s been in their life before: regret of losing someone amazing due to your inner demons and seeing them moving on with their life, when you’re stuck in a ‘nightmare not a dream,’” he explained in a statement.

“When I first sat down to write it I had Holden Caulfield from ‘Catcher in the Rye’ in mind. It’s playing out in his mind and it’s his own paranoia destroying him from the inside out when in reality she’s the perfect woman.”

Listen to ‘Feels Like’ below.

Alongside the album announcement, The View have shared details of two shows this May at Manchester’s Deaf Institute (10) and London’s Oslo (11), their first shows in both cities since 2017. Pre-sale starts this Wednesday (February 22) 9am GMT, and general sale goes live Friday, February 24 at 9am GMT. You can buy tickets here.

The band – comprising Falconer, Kieran Webster and Pete Reilly – relocated to Granada, Spain to record the new album with producer Youth (The Verve, Jesus & Mary Chain, The Charlatans).

We’re back with a brand new album, Exorcism of Youth! Pre-order on limited vinyl, CD and cassette from our official store and listen to the first track ‘Feels Like’ now: https://t.co/DPZ4R9FhRz pic.twitter.com/gMUhlkvWV7

“Working with Youth on our third album ‘Bread and Circuses’ was one of the best experiences of my career so we jumped at the chance to revisit the opportunity with him in Spain,” Falconer added. “To be able to go into the studio again as a band with added experience was just magical.”

Architects call on bands to “go on strike” against venues taking a cut of merch sales

Architects have suggested that bands should “go on strike” to protest against venues taking a cut of their merch sales.

READ MORE: Architects: “We’re not afraid to try new things, and I don’t think anybody should be” 

The idea was put forward by the band’s drummer Dan Searle on Twitter, reigniting discourse about artists’ ongoing battle to take home 100 per cent of their merch profits and how it can be achieved.

“Hey @bands when are we gonna go on strike and get rid of these insane venue merch cuts? Or maybe we don’t play until we get a cut of the bar? Can we just get this done asap please?” Searle wrote.

Architects’ frontman Sam Carter shared Searle’s tweet and added: “Venue in Melbourne took 15% and it took four hours for them to get our merch girl a light.”

Architects have been far from the only band in recent months to criticise venues for demanding a cut of their merch profits at shows. Back in November, Yard Act ran a pop-up shop to coincide with their show at O2 Academy Leeds to avoid the venue taking a 25 per cent cut of their profits, with items sold at the pop-up shop made 25 per cent cheaper as a result.

The Big Moon did the same thing for their show at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town in September, choosing instead to sell merch at a nearby pub. They went on to call out the venue on Twitter. “This leaves us with the choice of either not making any profit, or increasing prices and charging you guys more – neither feels fair,” they said.

Jack Antonoff, meanwhile, also called on venues to “stop taxing” merchandise sales, saying it’s “literally the only way you make money when you start out touring.”

He suggested venues “stop taxing merch, stop lying to artists about costs of putting on shows, and include artists in more areas of revenue,” adding: “The stories I could tell from my years touring are bananas. Young artists on tour are the last to see any money.”

A campaign was launched by the Featured Artists Coalition last year to encourage venues to let artists take home 100 per cent of profits from merch sales, which The Charlatans’ Tim Burgess has been a particularly notable supporter of. The FAC runs a directory of venues that don’t take a cut of artists’ merch profits, which venues can sign up to by filling out a form.

The campaign later spread to North America via an alliance with the Union Of Musicians And Allied Workers in the US. Earlier this month, Ineffable Music Group committed to ceasing the practice of taking a cut of the profits artists make from selling merch at venues they own and operate.

Salehe Bembury Unveils The Crocs Pollex Slide

Salehe Bembury recently teased the Crocs Pollex Slide.

Firm details of the product haven’t been confirmed by the American designer, but the unreleased silhouette bears close resemblance to his popular clogs design. Unveiled via Instagram, Bembury’s presumed next project with Crocs features fingerprint-inspired cutouts throughout the upper and sole unit. The “Salehe Slides” seemingly use a single piece of Croslite plastic, but closer inspection may reveal otherwise. Akin to other footwear collaborations from the New York City-native, the slip-on silhouette enjoys a monochromatic look, likely informed by nature.

By contrast, the Crocs project is a lot sleeker than Salehe Bembury’s Moncler Genius collaboration. No GORE-TEX or Vibram outsoles grace the laceless model. Co-branding is also seemingly kept to a minimum. If price point and accessibility are right, the unreleased slides will form a compelling one-two-punch with the Crocs Pollex Clog, especially given consumers’ increased interest in the category.

No firm release details have been disclosed, but Bembury’s new Crocs design is likely to hit retailers in the summer.

The Nike Air Ship “Pine Green” Releases At Select Retailers In March

As Michael Jordan’s original rookie year silhouette, the Nike Air Ship is an important part of the player and brand’s histories.

Over the last few years, the Air Jordan 1-predecesor has enjoyed some time in the spotlight, launching in original and new styles. Ahead of spring, the leather basketball sneaker from the 1980s appeared in a “White” and “Pine Green” color combination. First teased via Instagram user @hidden.ny in July 2022, the two-tone style has been confirmed as a special, but in-line retro from the Swoosh – not a collaboration. The bulk of the sneaker enjoys a simple “colorless” finish, while branding on the tongue and sides, panels around the collar, and outsoles favor rich green flair.

Stateside Nike SNKRS launch details are still unknown. Select shops overseas, however, are dropping the pair on March 1.

For more sneaker news, check out all upcoming Air Jordan release dates.

Where to Buy

Make sure to follow @kicksfinder for live tweets during the release date.

Firstly, the shoe opens up with black suede all throughout the upper. Secondly, there is Tiffany blue on the Nike swoosh as well as the insole. From there, the laces are made of rope which certainly creates a great look. Lastly, “Tiffany” is written on the tongue to add some Tiffany & Co. branding.

Blueface Calls Out Lil Baby For DMing Chrisean Rock, Akademiks Clowns “Thotiana” Rapper

Throughout their tumultuous relationship, we’ve seen plenty of tears shed by Chrisean Rock over the other women in Blueface’s life. As the 22-year-old’s star continues to rise, however, it sounds as though she’s the one causing her rapper beau to experience emotional anguish. During her time at the Super Bowl earlier this month, he called her out for taking a selfie with Rick Ross, and now, things are only getting more heated as another famous lyricist has entered the chat.

Over the weekend, the Crazy In Love stars were on Instagram Live when Rock revealed that Lil Baby had plenty of praise for her when they met recently. According to the reality star, the Atlanta rapper thinks she has plenty of “potential.” The compliment is obviously huge for her, but it seems as though Blueface is less than pleased to see his partner getting attention from other men.

During their stream, with thousands of fans watching, the 26-year-old made an off-colour joke about Chrisean having the “potential to f*ck” Baby. He also suggested that perhaps his fellow recording artist is interested in sleeping with him rather than his girl. “He wanna f*ck me too? Cuz wanna f*ck me? Any n*gga in your face is in my face. I’m right on your neck. N*gga f*cking you, he’s gonna be looking at me while he f*cking you? It makes no sense.”

In the hours since clips of the couple beefing began circulating online, Blue has been on Twitter candidly speaking his mind about the situation. He firstly posted a screenshot, seemingly from the Quality Control artist’s text conversation with his co-star. “It’s Baby,” the father of two wrote to Rock earlier this month.

In a message sent on Sunday (February 19) morning, he wrote, “Why people saying I was in ya DM [crying laughing emoji]? Why you ain’t tell them I’ma big brother!! I hate shit like that.” No response from the Baddies cast member is included in the image, but Blueface certainly had a lot to say in her place.

“Met my bitch one time talm ’bout he ‘big brother’ [crying laughing emoji],” the California native began. You ain’t no son to me, the truth could never be a diss. In other tweets uploaded to his account, the controversial rhymer wrote, “You in her DMs I’m in this bitch [phone]. I run this shit on sy. Be mad if you want to bitch, post my messages. I’m bleeding anything, come thru my territory without checking in. Welcome to Death Row.”

At this time Baby doesn’t seem to be phased by Blueface’s comments. However, DJ Akademiks did enter the chat with a few thoughts of his own on all the drama. “This [why] I told y’all Blueface should have stayed trying to seriously be a rapper instead of joining the reality TV world,” he began. “He can’t stomach the fact [that] his girl is the most viral thing rn.”

“He’s the sideshow,” the media personality pointed out. “Women consume the majority of reality TV content and they care about her, not him.” In another post, he drew attention to the fact that the “Dear Rock” artist is suddenly claiming Chrisean after seeing the other stars intrigued by her. “Remember at first this n*gga was acting like she was dirt?” Ak asked.

“Y’all see how when n*ggas down bad they come back around. Take notes ladies,” he ended his rant. Read what Blueface had to say in response to the Chrisean Rock Lil Baby drama below. Make sure to check back later for more hip-hop news updates.

Lil Durk Responds To Akademiks’ Report On His 2013 Arrest

Lil Durk has responded to a report from DJ Akademiks regarding his 2013 arrest. Akademiks shared paperwork from the time allegedly showing that Durk refused to pin a gun charge on a friend of his, despite working to become a star hip-hop artist at the time. In response, Durk commented on Akademiks’ post, “Shhhhhhhhh.”

“Lil durk paperwork from his 2013 arrest shows him unwilling to pin a gun on his homie despite the fact he was a huge star on the come up at that time,” Akademiks captioned the paperwork. “He later resolved that case in court with his lawyer.” Durk also shared the post on his Instagram Story with the caption, “Just shut the f#ck up and you good #thevoice2.0.”

Lil Durk’s Response

In response to Akademiks’ post, many fans made reference to Gunna taking a plea deal in the YSL RICO case. “Gunna punching air right now,” one user wrote. Another added: “Gunna needs to take notes.” Lil Durk previously dissed Gunna after news broke that he took a plea deal. On a song teased on social media, Durk rapped, “What happened to Virgil? He probably gon’ tell. I let him go because Timo ain’t selling / Thank 7 and Booka I’m bragging on Melvin / When lil boo and them mad it ain’t nothing you can tell them / I can tell you what I did for the streets / you got the paperwork, did it and reached / I got on Clubhouse and got in the beef.” Durk and Gunna both had once worked together on the song, “What Happened To Virgil.”

Despite accepting the plea deal, Gunna and his legal team have said that the rapper intends to plead the fifth if called to testify. “While I have agreed to always be truthful, I want to make it perfectly clear that I have NOT made any statements, have NOT been interviewed, have NOT cooperated, have NOT agreed to testify or be a witness for or against any party in the case and have absolutely NO intention of being involved in the trial process in any way,” the rapper said in a statement.

Chris Brown Responds To Accusations That He Banned Black Women From VIP Section

It’s one controversy after the next for Chris Brown. The famed R&B singer faced scrutiny last week after Chloe Bailey announced their upcoming collab. However, in the wake of Rihanna’s Super Bowl performance, fans quickly brought up his assault conviction. Breezy lashed out at his naysayers, including Kiely Williams, for constantly bringing up his abuse allegations. Breezy went on a day-long tirade on Instagram. The chatter eventually died down online but he faced even more controversy just days later.

Chris Brown has a history of allegations surrounding his apparent treatment of women in the club. However, during his recent visit to the UK, he became tangled in accusations that Black women were banned from his section of a nightclub. A woman hopped on TikTok where she stated that only white women were permitted to enter the VIP section of the club. We were supposed to go see Chris Brown,” one woman said in the video. “We got there and there were thousands of girls lined up. Also, they claimed to be on the VIP guest list.” Her friend chimed in, “They told us ‘No Black girls allowed.”

Chris Brown Denies Banning Black Women From His Section

Though the women didn’t necessarily accuse Chris Brown of personally banning Black women, he continued to face backlash on social media. However, Breezy didn’t hesitate to clear his name following the headlines. “Stop it,” he wrote with a screenshot of himself in the club, surrounded by Black women. “I have black queens all around me. THOP Reaching.” At the same time, several of his fans also pulled up footage that debunked the claims made in the video.

Eventually, the woman behind the first video hopped on social media to clear the air. She said that her video had nothing to do with Chris Brown but rather, the promoters, who she said personally invited her to the club. “The only reason why his name was mentioned was that we were going to a club that he was hosting at,” she said. Breezy later shared the video to Twitter, writing, “CRAZY that I have to have receipts. LOVE OUTWEIGHS THE HATE OVER HERE!”

Shaq Hilariously Makes Fun Of Charles Barkley For Sounding Drunk

Shaq and Charles Barkley have always combined for some truly incredible banter on Inside The NBA. TNT has had the rights to the NBA for a very long time, and overall, fans are hoping that they keep it. This is largely thanks to the amazing job that Shaq and Charles are constantly doing. Although they may be oldheads who are stuck in their ways, they are always providing fans with some truly hilarious banter. Whenever you tune into their broadcast, you can be sure that something truly funny is going to be said by one of them.

This past weekend, Barkley and Shaq were huge parts of the All-Star coverage. TNT has always had the game, and on Sunday, they got to be part of the draft and the game in Salt Lake City, Utah. As we already reported, Chuck had some words for none other than Draymond Green. Additionally, however, during the draft portion, Shaq and Chuck had some hilarious banter. In the clip down below, you can see just how amazing it truly was.

Shaq Clowns Chuck

Shaq out here dry snitching on Charles Barkley bruh I’m crying!! pic.twitter.com/NCNN9WZG6U

— Shannonnn sharpes Burner (PARODY Account) (@shannonsharpeee) February 20, 2023

As you can hear, there was a weird delay on Barkley’s mic that made it sound as if he was slurring his words. Shaq caught onto this right away and decided to make fun of his co-host. The NBA legend asked Barkley if he was drunk and what exactly he had been sipping on all afternoon. Chuck immediately claimed it was the microphone, although Shaq was not buying it. Furthermore, the whole scene was made funnier thanks to LeBron and Giannis laughing it up on stage. Needless to say, Shaq knows how to turn moments into funny ones.

As for the game itself, Team Giannis won thanks to some amazing efforts from his teammates. However, there was no defense and for many of the fans at home, it was just a boring match. At the end of the day, the All-Star Game is simply a showcase, and nothing more. Hopefully, in future years, they are able to make the game a bit better. Until then, fans will be stuck with the current product which absolutely needs a bit of work.

Kehlani Teases New Album With Sexy Photos

Just after completing their Blue Water Road Trip tour, Kehlani took to Insta on Sunday (February 19) to announce an upcoming album underway. The post included a series of sexy (and revealing) photos, with the first slide showing off their gorgeously tatted backside. Captured in the Philippines, the 27-year-old singer poses confidently for the moody photoshoot which teases fans in more ways than one. Kehlani, whose debut studio album SweetSexySavage was released back in 2017, hinted at a “2.0” to the project that initially put them on the map as an R&B artist.

The 17-track project previously ranked on Billboard’s “20 Best R&B Albums of 2017.” “Gangsta,” “Undercover,” and “Everything Is Yours” are among the album’s standout titles. Since the release of SSS, Kehlani has been consistent with showing off their versatile musicality. Following their big debut, they released 2 albums, a mixtape, and a variety of singles. Most recently, Blue Water Road earned the Californian singer recognition for tracks like “up at night” (featuring Justin Bieber) and “wish i never.” Overall, their most recent project reflected a soulful interpretation of Kehlani’s life, and put their uniquely melodious vocals under the spotlight.

Kehlani Hints At SweetSexySavage 2.0

Needless to say, it comes as no surprise that fans are craving a SSS 2.0 release. Many took to Twitter to express their excitement, with one Twitter user sharing, “They said this is their SweetSexySavage 2.0 era and I’m so excited. that’s my favorite album from Kehlani,” and another ecstatically tweeting, “NO FUCKING WAY? SWEETSEXYSAVAGE 2.0?!? KEHLANI I’M GONNA CRYFSHEATEU.” Even with Kehlani’s various musical contributions over the past 5 years, their debut album still holds power amongst listeners.

Fans were also quick to point out Kehlani’s hot new look. As revealed in their initial post, the vocalist is rocking newly chopped hair dyed to an incredibly flattering burgundy. The photoshoot accompanying her SSS 2.0 teaser was shot by Mía André, who brilliantly played with lights and shadows to showcase Kehlani’s fresh look. The singer-songwriter is certainly ready for a SSS 2.0 era, which we imagine will be filled with unfiltered lyrics, raw emotions, and her angelic voice!

Russell Westbrook Set To Sign With This Team

Russell Westbrook did not have a very good time with the Los Angeles Lakers. Overall, he played like a shell of his former self. He was much better during his previous stint with the Washington Wizards. That said, he had to accept a bench role with the Lakers as things were not going well for him. Although he was able to improve his play, it became clear that he had no chemistry with the team. This led to plenty of trade talks. Subsequently, he was sent to the Utah Jazz who were very clearly looking to buy out his contract.

Over the last few days, there have been various reports surrounding Westbrook and where he will go next. According to various reports, Westbrook was set to either sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, or the Miami Heat. Interestingly enough, the only true title contender here was the Clippers. Moreover, they boast the talents of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Needless to say, they are a team that would make a lot of sense for Russ.

Russell Westbrook Decides

After finalizing a contract buyout with the Utah Jazz, nine-time All-Star guard Russell Westbrook plans to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, his agent Jeff Schwartz of @excelbasketball tells ESPN. pic.twitter.com/OjZ0Mkuz5x

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) February 20, 2023

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, that is exactly where Russ has decided to go. Overall, they are a team in need of a point guard. They just traded away John Wall, who was not as good as they had hoped. Consequently, Russ has less pressure than he otherwise would have. Regardless, he still has to shake off just how bad he was in Los Angeles. That is not going to be an easy task, although, with some superstar teammates around him, it could be a lot easier to achieve. Either way, the Clippers are now going to be hit with immense pressure as their new big three has been established.

The Western Conference is looking stacked right now, so it is going to be hard for the Clippers to break through. However, they definitely have a chance to do something great. Only time will tell whether or not Russ will live up to the moment over these last few games of the regular season. Let us know what you think of this move, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.
