The music world feels a little quieter today as we mourn the sudden passing of John Forté at the age of 50. John was far more than just a musician; he was a polymath who seamlessly bridged the gap between the gritty streets of Brooklyn and the refined halls of academia.
Rising to prominence as a vital collaborator with The Fugees, John helped shape the sound of a generation, earning a Grammy nomination at just 21 for his work on the legendary album The Score. His career was a testament to resilience—navigating the heights of superstardom, the depths of a federal prison sentence, and a triumphant return to the world as an educator, activist, and visionary producer. John’s life was a symphony of complex movements, defined by his intellectual curiosity and his unwavering belief in the power of second chances.
Orchestral Beginnings: At age eight, he chose to learn the violin simply because the line for rock band instruments at his Brooklyn elementary school was too long.
Ivy League Preparation: He graduated from the prestigious Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire in 1993.
Hip-Hop Roommates: While studying music business at NYU, he was roommates with future rap icon Talib Kweli.
Industry Roots: Before his own fame, he worked as an A&R executive at the underground hip-hop staple Rawkus Records.
The Discovery: He was introduced to The Fugees by Lauryn Hill in the early 1990s.
Early Accolades: He was only 21 years old when he received his first Grammy nomination for The Score.
Chart Success: He partnered with Pras for the Top 40 hit “Avenues” from the Money Talks soundtrack.
Vivaldi Fan: Throughout his life, he maintained a deep love for classical music, specifically the works of Antonio Vivaldi.
Solo Debut: His first solo album, Poly Sci (1998), was produced by Wyclef Jean.
A “Crush” of Styles:Spin magazine famously described his debut album as a “crush between academia and street life.”
The Godmother Connection: Legendary singer Carly Simon became a mentor and “spiritual godmother” to him, fighting tirelessly for his freedom.
Recorded Under Pressure: His 2001 album, I, John, was recorded while he was awaiting trial for drug charges.
Unlikely Collaborations: That same album featured an eclectic mix of guests, including Herbie Hancock, Esthero, and Tricky.
Presidential Clemency: His 14-year sentence was commuted by President George W. Bush in 2008, with help from Senator Orrin Hatch.
A Prolific Return: After his release from prison, he recorded over 50 songs and played over 100 shows in a very short span.
Professor Forté: In 2009, he began a teaching position at the City College of New York.
Cinema Sound: His music appeared in several films, including Just Wright, Night Catches Us, and Stomp the Yard 2: Homecoming.
Sundance Staples: In 2010, he scored all of the opening trailers for the Sundance Film Festival.
Digital Pioneer: He collaborated on a unique audio-visual project with actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt on the platform hitrecord.org.
From Brooklyn to Russia: In 2011, he embarked on a massive 9-week tour across Russia, traveling via the Trans-Siberia Railway.
Philanthropy: All proceeds from his Russian tour were donated to local orphanages and the Happy Hearts Fund.
Sports Anthem: He composed the song “Brooklyn: Something to Lean On” as an anthem for the Brooklyn Nets.
YouTube Legacy: That same Nets anthem became the unofficial theme song for the late YouTube creator Etika.
TV Scoring: He wrote the theme song for the CBS News documentary series Brooklyn DA.
Final Works: His later career saw the release of two deeply personal albums, Riddem Drive (2020) and Vessels, Angels & Ancestors (2021).
The legendary Stern Auditorium at Carnegie Hall hosts the return of the Annual Tibet House US Benefit Concert on March 3, 2026. This historic evening celebrates its thirty-ninth year under the visionary guidance of Artistic Directors Philip Glass and Laurie Anderson alongside Musical Director Tony Shanahan. The lineup features an extraordinary array of talent including rock icon Debbie Harry and Kate Pierson of The B-52s. Trailblazing artist Allison Russell and chillwave pioneer Toro y Moi join a diverse roster that includes the Philip Glass Ensemble and Tibetan ambassador Tenzin Choegyal. This gathering serves as a vital cultural embassy that ensures the survival and flourishing of Tibetan civilization through the power of music and communal art.
This year the event coincides with the Year of the Fire Horse which symbolizes a period of heightened spiritual energy and profound transformation. The performance schedule delivers one-night-only collaborations and a moving chanted invocation by the Monks of the Drepung Gomang Monastery. The Resistance Revival Chorus and the electro-acoustic Scorchio Quartet provide a rich sonic backdrop for an evening that transcends traditional concert boundaries. Every ticket purchase directly fuels the educational programs and cultural preservation initiatives of Tibet House US as founded at the request of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The atmosphere at Carnegie Hall is consistently electric as world-class musicians unite for this singular cause. This benefit remains a cornerstone of the New York City cultural calendar and offers a visceral experience of artistic solidarity.
The Tiny Desk Contest returns today and is accepting entries for its 12th year. This is NPR’s annual competition that invites unsigned artists to submit a video of themselves performing an original song for the opportunity to be featured on NPR Music’s Tiny Desk concert series, be paired with a music industry expert, and headline a 10-city national tour. The Contest has been a music career launching pad for Grammy award-winning artists like Fantastic Negrito and Tank and the Bangas.
New artists can submit their Tiny Desk Contest videos HERE.
The submission window opened today, January 13, 2026, at 10 a.m. ET, and runs through Monday, February 9, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET.
A panel of judges NPR Music producers, member station hosts, musicians, and industry professionals will determine the winner. This year’s lineup includes:
“It’s such an honor and sincere joy to get to spend time with so many beautifully creative artists who send in their work. I honestly can’t wait to hear and see this year’s entries, and to see where it takes us.” says Robin Hilton.
Though there can only be one grand prize winner each year, many other artists who submit will be featured on NPR Music’s social media accounts, YouTube channel, NPR’s broadcast news programs, and in the Tiny Desk Contest newsletter. By submitting to the Contest, artists also benefit from joining a nationwide supportive community of thousands of independent musicians.
Contest judges will highlight outstanding entries in episodes of NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Contest Top Shelf livestream series on YouTube. This year, the Tiny Desk Contest Fan Favorite returns, inviting Tiny Desk enthusiasts to cast their votes for their top choice among the showcased Top Shelf videos. Keep an eye out for more news about the Fan Favorite voting process later this spring.
The Tiny Desk Contest has proven to be a significant launchpad for emerging artists, offering benefits such as increased industry visibility, major festival headlining opportunities, and major label signings. Recent winners illustrate this impact: The Philharmonik, the 2024 winner, successfully completed an international tour last summer. More recently, 2025 winner Ruby Ibarra headlined the Houston Filipino Street Festival and is set to release a new album in 2026. A notable earlier success story is 2017 winner, Tank and The Bangas, who went on to win a Grammy for their three-part project, The Heart, The Mind, and The Soul.
NPR Music welcomes music from all genres and encourages entrants from previous years to submit new material. To enter the Contest, unsigned musicians must be 18 years old and live in the United States, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or Puerto Rico. The artist must perform one original song at a desk, upload a video of the performance to YouTube, and submit a completed entry form at NPR.org/tinydeskcontest.
Since the Tiny Desk concert series launched in 2008, more than 1,400 performances have been recorded in front of the Tiny Desk bookshelves, which are adorned with years of music souvenirs and memorabilia. Tiny Desk concerts attract 17 million monthly viewers and unify a passionate community around the love of music discovery. The series has provided a unique stage for artists across the genre spectrum and at every phase of their careers, including Usher, Sabrina Carpenter, Ca7riel y Paco Amoroso, Cece Winans, Dua Lipa, Daniel Caesar, Fred Again, Bad Bunny, Wet Leg, the cast of Sunset Boulevard, and many, many more.

Pop Royalty BTS announce their long-awaited return to the global stage with their world tour spanning 2026-2027. Set to be the biggest global K-pop tour of all time, and the largest of their career to date, the run will span 34 regions and 79 shows, featuring first-ever performances in several cities and marking a historic new chapter for the group and their global fanbase, ARMY.
The highly anticipated 70+ date tour, promoted by Live Nation, kicks off Thursday, April 9, with BTS performing for three nights together in Goyang, South Korea before heading to Tokyo, Japan. From there, the tour moves to North America where the group will perform in Tampa, FL for the first time on April 25 and 26, launching the run with back-to-back nights at Raymond James Stadium before continuing across North America, Europe, and the UK. The tour features multi-night stadium stops in all cities including Mexico City, Las Vegas, London, Paris, East Rutherford, Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles and more.
This fall, BTS will then bring their tour to Latin America and Asia, with stops planned in Bogotá, São Paulo, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Singapore, and more — including first-ever performances in Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Kaohsiung. The group will then return to Australia early next year for a run of shows across Melbourne and Sydney. Venue details and ticket information for the Latin America, Asia, and Australia dates will be shared at a later date.
Notably, the tour will feature a 360-degree, in-the-round stage design — a first for a K-pop stadium tour. The immersive setup places the audience at the center of the experience while allowing for increased capacity at every venue.
These shows mark BTS’ first headline performances as a group since their celebrated 2021–2022 ‘PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE’ tour, which spanned 12 shows across Seoul, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. As one of the first K-pop groups to achieve true global crossover success and shatter attendance and gross records worldwide, BTS continue to redefine what’s possible for the genre with this massive stadium tour.
The BTS World Tour also brings historic firsts across multiple markets. BTS will play Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, TX and Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA — marking the first and largest headline K-pop concerts ever held in both cities. The group will also become just the second musical act to perform at Stanford Stadium in Stanford, CA, following Coldplay’s inaugural shows last year.
Additionally, the tour marks BTS’ first-ever performances in Madrid and Brussels, the first K-pop shows at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX and M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, and the group’s debut at London’s iconic Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, further cementing the tour as one of the most significant tours of 2026.

Salik is part of everyday driving, and balance management must be simple, predictable, and fast. A salik recharge voucher is designed for this exact purpose. The voucher model works well for residents, visitors, and business fleets.
From a service perspective, vouchers are valued for their stability. They are not tied to banking hours or card limits. Once activated, the balance is applied to the Salik account and becomes available for use. This approach fits real driving habits, where delays at toll gates are not an option.

International producer and label boss CASH ONLY has officially teamed up with UK producer Syncia to launch a brand new collaborative project. Their debut single “Surrender” arrives January 16 through Famous When Dead Records and marks the beginning of a partnership rooted in bass-heavy, garage-inspired house music. The two artists first connected after a video of Syncia performing at Pikes in Ibiza caught the attention of CASH ONLY, leading to an immediate musical bond. This collaboration allows both creators to lean into the darker, more underground side of the house genre while honoring their shared jungle and garage roots.
The duo is already deep into the creative process with several follow-up tracks ready for release, including a highly anticipated feature with the vocalist Elje. Their recent live performances at ADE and Basing House in London have already showcased the high-energy chemistry they bring to the stage. This record delivers a perfectly executed balance of bumpy rhythms and deep grooves that are specifically engineered for the dancefloor. CASH ONLY is also preparing to take this sound global with the CASH ONLY Chronicles Tour, which includes stops in Phuket, Bangkok, and Manchester. The production quality on this debut is undeniably superior and confirms that this partnership is a vital new addition to the electronic music scene.
