Grammy Winner Samara Joy Shares New Single “Three Little Words” Ahead of Global Tour

 Five-time GRAMMY Award-winning jazz vocalist Samara Joy has released a single, “Three Little Words,” today. First penned by Harry Ruby and Bert Kalmar in 1930 and newly arranged by alto saxophonist David Mason, the track finds Joy revisiting one of the earliest standards she ever learned, breathing fresh life into the timeless classic with her signature warmth and once-in-a-generation voice. The track was recorded during the Portrait sessions.

“‘Three Little Words’ is one of the first standards I ever learned,” says Joy. “I first heard Sarah Vaughan’s recording from the album After Hours at the London House. Although it’s been performed by many musicians, I’m excited to add my interpretation to the list of incredible recordings of this song.”

Listen to “Three Little Words” HERE. Watch the visualizer HERE.

The Bronx-born jazz sensation continues her meteoric rise with a string of major accolades and career milestones. Her latest studio album Portrait offers a snapshot of Joy’s growth since her GRAMMY Best New Artist win, especially as a lyricist and band leader. NPR Music called it “the most jazz literate album of her career so far” and WRTI called it “an artistic breakthrough.” She recently made her stunning BBC proms debut, which The Times gave a 5-star review, plus her sold-out Carnegie Hall debut in her hometown of NYC. Joy’s Austin City Limits debut will air on PBS on November 1, 2025.

Earlier this year, Joy earned two more Grammys at the 67th Annual Awards, winning Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best Jazz Performance, bringing her total Grammy count to five. Shortly after, she was honored with her first NAACP Image Award, crowned Outstanding Jazz Album for Portrait. This Spring, she was a featured guest on the new season of Sesame Street and was featured in ELLE Magazine’s Women in Music issue, which you can read here. Additionally, Joy is featured on the new album from 9x Grammy winner Christian McBride, Without Further Ado, Vol. 1, out now.

The “next-generation leader in jazz” (Rolling Stone) will continue her global tour this Fall, with headline shows kicking off tonight (September 26) in Beaverton, OR before stops in Seattle, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Chicago, Boston and more. The tour will also stop across Australia and New Zealand. Please see below for all upcoming dates, and visit https://www.samarajoy.com/ for more information.

Joey Bada$$ Drops iPhone-Shot “SUPAFLEE” Video Ahead of Dark Aura Tour

Joey Bada$$ continues to make waves following the release of his critically acclaimed mixtape, Lonely At The Top. Today, the Brooklyn native unveils the official music video for his fan-favorite track “SUPAFLEE” (featuring Bri Steves).

Driven by infectious rhythm, “SUPAFLEE” is a ready-made anthem that echoes the golden era of New York’s gritty hip-hop scene. In the video, directed by Edgar Esteves, Joey takes over the Big Apple with a cameo appearance from producer Kirk Knight and recording artist Bri Steves as he commands the spotlight with style. His performance extends the track’s energy into imagery that feels bold and defiant. It frames the single as part of a larger story where true lyricism and real hip hop still matter, giving the record its staying power.

The visual for “SUPAFLEE,” which was shot entirely on the iPhone, stands tall alongside an impressive collection of music videos from Joey’s new mixtape. It’s the follow-up to “DARK AURA” and his groundbreaking collaboration “STILL,” featuring Rapsody & Ab-Soul, both of which are featured on Lonely At The Top.

The hotly-anticipated project, out now, is home to guest appearances from Westside Gunn, Ferg, Ty Dolla $ign, Rapsody, Ab-Soul, Rome Streetz, Bri Steves, Kelz, Kai Ca$h & CJ Fly. Spanning 11 tracks, Lonely At The Top not only marks Joey’s first full-length outing of 2025 but also distills the award-winning actor and rapper to his core essence. The tape instantly became a timeless contribution to this year’s hip-hop releases, marking another successful release from one of the most forward-thinking artists of this generation.

This all builds on the momentum generated by Joey’s headlining ‘DARK AURA TOUR.’ The 25-city run kicks off October 16 in Boston, MA, with stops in Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and more. The tour also includes a special hometown performance in Brooklyn on November 19 before wrapping in Philadelphia on November 21st.

Taylor Swift Becomes First Woman to Surpass 100 Million RIAA Album Units Ahead of ‘The Life of a Showgirl’

Days before the release of her 12th studio album, The Recording Industry Association of America announces a monumental achievement for global superstar Taylor Swift, who has become the first and only female artist in history to surpass 100 million RIAA-certified album units. Swift is also the only artist in the top 10 for both highest-certified album artists and highest-certified digital single artists.

With this new certification, Swift joins an elite group of artists to reach this level of success in the U.S., placing her sixth among the top-selling artists in music history, behind Led Zeppelin at 112.5 million, the Eagles at 120 million, Elvis Presley at 146.5 million, Garth Brooks at 162 million, and The Beatles at 183 million. According to the RIAA, Swift’s total certified album units have now exceeded 105 million, surpassing Mariah Carey, who is the second top-selling female artist with 75 million certified units.

The historic milestone is driven by a catalog of critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums, including 2014’s 1989, which is certified 14-times platinum, 2008’s Fearless at 11-times platinum, 2012’s Red at eight-times platinum, 2006’s Taylor Swift at eight-times platinum, and last year’s The Tortured Poets Department at eight-times platinum.

On Friday, Swift will release The Life of a Showgirl, which she wrote during her record-breaking Eras Tour. The album has already broken a Spotify record as it became the first Countdown Page to surpass five million pre-saves, further extending it as the most pre-saved album on the Countdown Page in Spotify history, surpassing the mark set by The Tortured Poets Department last year.

In addition to this latest record, Spotify is celebrating the upcoming album release with The Life of a Showgirl: A Spotify Experience, an immersive pop-up experience for fans in New York City through October 2nd. Swifties are invited to step into a day in the life of a showgirl, capturing photo moments, hunting for Easter eggs, and more.

On October 3rd, the global pop star will host a cinematic release party with Cinemark Holdings and AMC. Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl will give fans an exclusive world premiere of the music video, “The Fate of Ophelia,” along with behind-the-scenes footage from the music video shoot, new lyric videos, and Taylor’s never-before-seen personal reflections on songs from her 12th studio album.

Many Target stores will open at midnight on October 3rd to give fans a chance to pick up exclusive versions of the album, including the single pressing of The Crowd is Your King edition on Summertime Spritz Pink with a giant poster, and three CD variations with posters, and more.

Rob Scallon Builds A Semi-Hollow Concrete Guitar Inspired By The Gibson ES-335

Musician Rob Scallon and Modustrial Maker’s Mike Cliff have taken guitar building to bold new territory with a semi-hollow electric crafted from 3/8″-thick concrete walls. Modeled after the Gibson ES-335, the body was shaped using melamine molds, insulation foam, and 3D-printed parts. Reinforced with glass fibers, the result is a surprisingly playable concrete guitar that blurs the line between instrument and sculpture.

The Get Up Kids’ Matt Pryor Shares “The Dishonesty” From Forthcoming Solo Album ‘The Salton Sea’

The Get Up Kids’ Matt Pryor has shared “The Dishonesty,” the second single previewing his new solo album The Salton Sea due out on November 14th via Nightshoes Syndicate/Big Scary Monsters.

Out now alongside a video directed by Josh Berwanger (The Anniversary), the urgent and heartfelt track further documents his difficult road to sobriety. “This is a song about lying and hurting the people you love when you’re in the throes of addiction. I think Josh really captured the insanity of how that feels,” Pryor explains.

“The Dishonesty” follows the album’s lead single and title-track, which earned praise and support from Alternative Press, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, Chorus.FM, and more.

The self-produced, 10-track LP, featuring mixing and additional production by Peter Katis (The National, Interpol), sees Pryor explore an expansive, full-band sound reminiscent of The Afghan Whigs and Bob Mould’s Sugar-specifically the band’s 1992 LP Copper Blue-with dreamy guitars, big drums, and shimmering production. It should be noted that the chosen title for his seventh album is not one that was picked arbitrarily. For those unfamiliar, The Salton Sea in Southern California is what’s known as a “terminal” lake-meaning that new water never flows into it, and its salinity increases incrementally due to evaporation and pollution. The once high-spirited desert oasis-a tourist attraction for celebrities and the upper crust in the 1950s and 60s-is now a bona fide wasteland. It’s not difficult to imagine that, while in the throes of addiction, Pryor felt exactly like this: a shadow of his younger self.

“The story that these songs tell is about that time in my life,” notes Pryor. “Autumn rolling into spring because the winter was a blackout. How the good times were great until one day they weren’t. How I lost myself and hurt people that I care about. How I got help that didn’t stick and how I lost faith in the help that did. That I came out on the other side of the whole ordeal only to realize I am still a work in progress, that we all are.”

A Day to Remember Celebrate 15 Years of ‘What Separates Me From You’ With Anniversary Vinyl Reissue

A Day to Remember Celebrate 15 Years of ‘What Separates Me From You’ With Anniversary Vinyl Reissue

Craft Recordings proudly celebrates the 15th anniversary of What Separates Me From You, the bestselling fourth studio album from A Day to Remember. Out November 14th, the 2010 genre-bending classic returns to vinyl in a special Transparent Sea Glass pressing with metallic cover art. This anniversary edition also includes a bonus acoustic version of the hit single “All I Want,” plus fan favorites like “All Signs Point to Lauderdale” and “It’s Complicated.”

In addition to the Transparent Sea Glass release, the album can also be found on CD and in several limited-edition vinyl pressings, including Electric Smoke exclusively via Craft Recordings, Oriole via Revolver, Transparent Blue & Pink Swirl via Enjoy the Ride, and Green Smoke, with an exclusive metallic gold jacket, through the band’s official store.

Internationally revered for their dynamic blend of metalcore, post-hardcore and pop punk, A Day to Remember (ADTR) formed in Ocala, FL in 2003, and released their debut LP, And Their Name Was Treason, in 2005. Thanks to grassroots efforts, the album sold tens of thousands of copies.

The band saw its profile rise exponentially after the release of 2007’s For Those Who Have Heart, while 2009’s Homesick served as their commercial breakthrough. Their fourth album, What Separates Me From You, however, would find ADTR reaching new emotional depths with their songwriting, as they delivered their most personal and profound album yet.

The 2010 release marked the band’s first project to feature frontman Jeremy McKinnon producing, alongside frequent collaborator Andrew Wade and New Found Glory’s Chad Gilbert. While Homesick found ADTR grappling with their newfound fame, What Separates Me From You marked a significant shift in tone, as the band wrote about the darker side of life on the road—from strained personal relationships to mental health struggles.

A breadth of emotional intensity can be heard throughout the album—from blistering metalcore breakdowns to the high-highs of pop-punk hooks. Kicking off with the breakneck opener “Sticks & Bricks” (in which McKinnon growls a pointed message to the band’s haters), the 32-minute-long album packs plenty of power into its ten tracks, including the emotional rollercoaster of “You Be Tails, I’ll Be Sonic” and the hauntingly beautiful “This is the House That Doubt Built.” Balancing out the album are a selection of anthemic earworms, including the singles “All I Want,” “All Signs Point to Lauderdale,” and “It’s Complicated.”

Released in November of 2010, What Separates Me From You became ADTR’s most successful album yet, debuting at No.11 in the US and topping Billboard’s Top Alternative Albums, Hard Rock Albums, and Independent Albums charts. Certified Gold by the RIAA, the LP also broadened the band’s profile in the UK, where it topped the Rock and Metal Albums chart. Fueling the album’s success was lead single “All I Want,” which was accompanied by a star-studded music video, featuring the likes of Pete Wentz and Andrew W.K., plus members of The Devil Wears Prada, August Burns Red, and Pierce the Veil, among many others. The gold-certified track not only hit No.12 on Billboard’s Alternative chart, but also broke the Top 10 of the UK’s Rock & Metal chart. Today, it remains one of ADTR’s most popular singles.

Today, A Day to Remember—which consists of vocalist Jeremy McKinnon, rhythm guitarist Neil Westfall, drummer Alex Shelnutt, and lead guitarist Kevin Skaff—continues to enjoy an active schedule of touring and recording. To date, ADTR has sold over five million albums, amassed over 3.5 billion streams, earned two gold albums, four gold singles, and a platinum single. Showing no signs of slowing down, at the top of 2025, they released their latest, long-awaited LP, Big Ole Album Vol. 1, while they are currently on tour through November.

What Separates Me From You Tracklist:

1. Sticks & Bricks
2. All I Want
3. It’s Complicated
4. This is the House That Doubt Built
5. 2nd Sucks
6. Better Off This Way
7. All Signs Point to Lauderdale

Sam Smith Announces ‘To Be Free: San Francisco’ Residency at Castro Theatre

Global superstar Sam Smith announces, To Be Free: San Francisco, an eight-night residency at the Castro Theatre. Kicking off February 10th, Smith’s rare, up-close performances will officially ring in the venue’s eagerly awaited reopening following two years of renovations. To mark the announcement, Smith has shared a soul-stirring cover of the 1971 Bill Withers classic “Ain’t No Sunshine” set to a video filmed at the beloved theater and in the surrounding Castro District.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday, October 7th at 10 am local time.

The series is a continuation of Sam’s upcoming residency, To Be Free: New York City, which begins on October 8th at Brooklyn’s historic Warsaw club. With the New York City residency kicking off next week, Smith is appearing tonight on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert for a sit-down interview. He will also return to the show tomorrow night (Wed, Oct 1st), as the featured musical guest. The initial run of 12 shows for To Be Free: New York City sold out immediately, prompting Smith to add 12 additional dates at the intimate venue, stretching into November and December.

Smith’s cover of “Ain’t No Sunshine” is both stunningly beautiful and rich with meaning. Over a raw acoustic guitar, they begin the song: “Ain’t no sunshine when he’s gone / It’s not warm when he’s away.” With their unmistakable voice, Sam gives a haunting performance that captures the chill of loneliness, while the accompanying video brings immense warmth. We first see Sam inside the Castro Theatre, scaffolding still in place. Soon, we’re out on the streets of the Castro District, meeting friendly faces from the community. By the end, Sam has led a small celebratory parade of folks to the iconic theater marquee, and stepped into the box office to tear tickets themself.

Both residencies take their name from Smith’s soaring new single, “To Be Free.” The soulful acoustic song, which explores how vulnerability can unlock bravery and freedom, includes moving vocals by The Two City Chorus and came with a joyous (LA)Horde-directed music video filmed at Warsaw.

Another Planet Entertainment’s The Castro will be a fittingly timeless home for the West Coast installment of the To Be Free series. Built as a movie palace in 1922 with an interior designed by one of San Francisco’s most prominent architects, Timothy Pfleuger, the captivating space swirls up an array of worldly influences and includes stunning original artwork on the ceilings, famous sgraffito murals along the walls, and an ornate chandelier, among other features. All of that has been restored as part of a $40 million rehabilitation project that’s also opened the venue up for standing-room music performances and facilitated the installation of “the world’s largest and most versatile digital organ.”

Video: Phil Collins Joins David Letterman’s House Band During 1988 ‘Buster’ Promo

Back in November 1988, Phil Collins stopped by Late Night with David Letterman to promote his film Buster and couldn’t resist joining the house band. Behind the drum kit, Collins locked in with the group like he’d been there all along, grinning through every fill. It was one of those rare late-night TV moments where a superstar felt completely at home just being a musician.
