Reclusive crooner Frank Ocean makes a colorful splash in the latest issue of W Magazine.
It’s been three years since the singer-songwriter released bodies of work – and even still the controversial roll-out of ‘Endless’ and ‘Blonde’ (which arrived a day later) remains an industry hot topic.
For, unbeknownst to most, Ocean used one to fulfil his major label contract and (arguably) seized that buzz to drop his premiere the other. His first independent project.
Hailed as a masterstroke move by some, others wondered if there would be ramifications.
As for Ocean himself? He’s simply swimming on with his career plans – which include the release of new material.
In his accompanying interview feature, he dishes on his upcoming music and reflects on his headspace and rationale for the double-album move…

OneRepublic lead singer Ryan Tedder sent his Twitter mentions soaring over the weekend when he took to the annual Global Citizen Festival to confirm Beyonce would be joining forces with Adele for the Pop group’s upcoming album.
Having written hits for both in the past (‘Halo’ for Bey, ‘Turning Tables’ for Addy), news outlets and fans of both divas alike immediately assumed Tedder’s comments had merit – a circumstance only supported by the Pop divas’ very public comments of admiration for each other over the years.
Monday morning (September 30) saw those fan dreams dashed, however, after a rep for the 40-year-old singer-songwriter confirmed the collaboration is not happening.

Mariah Carey is ready for the holidays and wants to ring-in the festive season with a splash.
For, before fans can eat their first piece of Halloween candy or Thanksgiving turkey, Mimi has already carved out the dates of the 2019 installment of the ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You Tour.’
Details below.
September 24 marked the sixth season kick offs of hit ABC series ‘Black-ish’ and FOX’s former flagship, ‘Empire,’ respectively.
For the latter, which saw its cancellation announced earlier this year (as we reported here), the pressure was on to carry on after the PR nightmare caused by former star Jussie Smollett‘s alleged hate crime hoax. With its negative impact already seen and felt in the latter half of the Lee Daniels-helmed show’s season 5, hopes weren’t exactly high for the series’ season 6 premiere – despite being its last – to rebound to its former glory.
Similarly, ABC’s ‘Black-ish’ – albeit able to boast a scandal-free run (to date) – has seen a steady decline in its viewership since its 2014 debut as well (which pulled in a whopping 11.04 million viewers). Once the ratings leaders for their respective nights, ‘Empire,’ now airing on Tuesday nights, not only had to face off with ‘Black-ish’ but also against the likes of NBC’s juggernaut ‘This Is Us’ and CBS’ ‘FBI.’

“Dearly beloved… we have gathered here today… to get through this thing called life!”
By now we figure you have guessed that this week’s From The Vault pick is none other than Prince‘s ever-legendary ‘Let’s Go Crazy,’ which topped the charts exactly 35 years ago today.
With its eulogy-themed intro, ‘Crazy’ was the second single from the artist’s monumental LP ‘Purple Rain’ released in 1984. It was also the opening song on the movie of the same name. Urging the listener to bypass the drama and chose to be upbeat, the funk-rock number was the singer’s second consecutive #1 in the US following the set’s lead ‘When Doves Cry’ and was a concert staple. The cut was a #2 charting single in Canada and also a Top 10 in both the UK and Australia where it peaked at #7 and #10 respectively.
The video for the track was compiled of of cuts from the blockbuster ‘Purple Rain’ movie, which stared the purple one alongside protégé Apollonia and Morris Day – who played his arch nemesis. Three decades later, it continues to serve as a great representation of the mid-80s rock show dynamic.

Just like Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston, Prince’s star has never stopped shining posthumously; a true testament to his extensive body of work which continues to inspire the latest crop of new artists the way it has the previous generation.
[On a random but relevant note, social media has also somehow managed to keep the spirits and personalities of these artists alive and they end up regular faces in our respective digital feeds.
Dearly beloved, we have written this today to say thank you, to Mister Nelson, for blessing the world at large with his multi-dimensional talent.
Your thoughts?
After springing a successful spinoff to Freeform in the form of the Yara Shahidi-led ‘Grown-ish,’ ABC’s hit series ‘Black-ish’ attempts to prove itself evergreen by sprouting a prequel in the form of the Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tika Sumpter-toplined ‘Mixed-ish.’
Executive produced by creator Kenya Barris and Tracee Ellis Ross (who portrays ‘Rainbow Johnson’ on ‘Black-ish’), ‘Mixed-ish’ tells the story of Ross’ character growing up as a biracial child in the 1980’s. Loosely based on the early life of Dr. Rania Barris (co-creator Kenya’s soon-to-be former wife), the comedy series also chronicles the dilemmas her family faces trying to adjust from “hippie life” to suburbia.
Despite being given an extra promotional push by securing biracial Pop icon Mariah Carey to sing its theme song (as we reported here), the series premiered on September 24 to a moderate audience. Details inside:
