‘Chromatica’ is here!
Lady Gaga has unleashed her sixth studio album moments ago and promises to take listeners on a colossal ride.
The eagerly anticipated project is the singer’s first conventional album since 2016’s ‘Joanne’ and her the first body of work overall she’s released since 2018’s ‘A Star Is Born’ soundtrack.
Both of those those efforts topped the Billboard 200 and added a number of new hits to her catalogue – including ballads ‘Million Reasons’ and #1 smash ‘Shallow.’
With ‘Chromatica,’ though, she does away with the demure and ushers in the return of the dance-floor divadom that first thrust her into the ears, eyes, and minds of the masses.
Powered by productions from the likes of BloodPop, Ryan Tedder, and Max Martin, Gaga delivers a pulsating party from start to finish. Guests on the set include Ariana Grande (‘Rain On Me’) and K-Pop supernovas BLACKPINK (‘Sour Candy’).
What are you waiting for? Listen to new Gaga after the below…
‘Canceled express’ has picked up a new passenger: ‘Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse’ voice actor Shameik Moore.
The 25-year-old took to Twitter Thursday (May 28) to suggest Black peoples’ negative (and sometimes fatal) interactions with police forces across the United States could be avoided if they “learn how to deal with police and racism.”
Going on to cite “Black on Black crime” as a topic the African American community should prioritize over police brutality, Moore’s multi-tweet rant even saw him say he doesn’t ‘fear for his life because he knows how to handle himself in tough situations.’
Needless to say, his commentary – especially in the midst of a national social crisis stemming from the filmed death of unarmed Minnesota Black George Floyd – incited fury.
Read some of the fiery responses:
A year after Cardi B slammed political commentator and television personality, Tomi Lahren,’ and threatened to “dog walk” her for her controversial views on 21 Savage‘s U.S. citizenship status (click here to read), the two are at war again – this time over insensitive remarks Lahren made regarding the Minneapolis riots stemming from the death of George Floyd (click here to read).
The police officers responsible for the man’s death are still free and uncharged and, as a result, citizens have taken to the streets via protests and riots to demand justice.
Taking to Twitter Thursday (May 28), Lahren reprimanded the ‘Twin City’ residents for their handling of the subject matter and condemned them for reports of looting. Her comments landed on the desk of Cardi, who rebutted with fiery remarks of her own.

Lady Gaga has always been outspoken on matters of injustice and is aptly speaking up in the wake of the shocking death of George Floyd – an unarmed Black man who lost his life during an encounter with police.
As reported, frightening footage saw Floyd beg the officer reprimanding him to ease the grip of his knee – which was positioned on his neck for seven whole minutes.
His plea went unanswered and he subsequently died.
The incident has caused an international outcry, with both protests and rioting occurring.
In the time since, four Minnesota officers have been fired and there are global calls for justice in the form of murder charges.
Now, Gaga is weighing-in. Her words below…
As Camila Cabello gears up to make her feature film debut in the leading role of the now 2021-due ‘Cinderella’ reboot, she’s taken to ‘Wall Street Journal’ to confess her life is far from a fairy tale.
Penning a deeply personal essay for the publication to detail her battles with mental health (namely anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder), the award-winning singer-songwriter reveals her on-camera persona has differed from her true self in the past.
“Here’s what there aren’t pictures of from the last year: me crying in the car talking to my mom about how much anxiety and how many symptoms of OCD I was experiencing,” wrote Cabello. “My mom and me in a hotel room reading books about OCD because I was desperate for relief. Me experiencing what felt like constant, unwavering, relentless anxiety that made day-to-day life painfully hard.”

As we reported here, African American Harvard graduate and former Marvel editor Christian Cooper is calling for a ‘cease-fire’ of sorts against Amy Cooper – a White woman who called the police to falsely report he had threatened her in Central Park after he asked her to obey city orders to leash her dog on the public property.
Inciting conversations about racial privilege in the process, Christian – during a media blitz that’s seen him converse with the nation’s top TV and print outlets – argues some people have taken their defense tactics to the extreme by wishing death on the woman (who has already lost her job as a result of the backlash).
After empathizing with her predicament on CNN earlier this week, Christian and his sister Melody took to Thursday’s episode of ‘The View’ (May 28) to reiterate the empathized stance. This time, going on record to say he accepts Amy’s apology for their May 25 altercation.
