Zayn Malik on One Direction: ‘I never really wanted to be there’

0

Ever since Zayn Malik left One Direction, he’s been pretty quiet about the reasons behind his exit and how he felt as a member of the group. But now, in an interview with Beats 1’s Zane Lowe, the former band member has admitted it: “I never really wanted to be there.”

“I think I always wanted to go, from the first year. I never really wanted to be there, like, in the band. I just gave it a go because it was there at the time and then when I realised the direction we were going in -– mind the pun –- with the music, I instantly realised it wasn’t for me.

“I realised I couldn’t put any input in, I couldn’t give my opinion on this or not, because it didn’t fit the grain of what we were as a band and what we represented. That’s when it became frustrating for me.”

“Today we’re reporting Apple’s strongest financial results ever.

Our team delivered Apple’s biggest quarter ever, thanks to the world’s most innovative products and all-time record sales of iPhone, Apple Watch and Apple TV,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “The growth of our Services business accelerated during the quarter to produce record results, and our installed base recently crossed a major milestone of one billion active devices.”

Our record sales and strong margins drove all-time records for net income and EPS in spite of a very difficult macroeconomic environment,” said Luca Maestri, Apple’s CFO. “We generated operating cash flow of $27.5 billion during the quarter, and returned over $9 billion to investors through share repurchases and dividends. We have now completed $153 billion of our $200 billion capital return program.” – Tim Cook

The Black Crowes’ Isolated Vocals For “She Talks To Angels” And “Remedy”

0

Voted by Melody Maker as The Most Rock ‘n’ Roll Rock ‘n’ Roll Band in the World, The Black Crowes were just complete badasses, complete with a stunning 1992 album The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion. But first, their debut album Shake Your Money Maker brought them into the limelight. Funny, they played the song live many times over the years, but it is not included on this album.

The band, fronted by vocalist Chris Robinson and brother guitarist Rich literally flew off the stage with their 1960’s psychedelic pop and classic southern rock, and later evolved into a revivalist band dedicated to 1970s-era blues rock. Here’s some of Chris’ best isolated vocals.
