Let’s hope The Weeknd’s new album arrives with the speed of that car he’s driving.
The Weeknd’s new video showcases the directorial talents of Anton Tammi, but who is he?
It’s set to be a big year for Abel Makkonen Tesfaye!
Known widely as The Weeknd, the Canadian singer-songwriter rose to become one of the most popular musical acts of the 2010s, cementing his status with his 2015 sophomore album Beauty Behind the Madness.
It was one of the most celebrated releases of the year, boasting such hit singles as ‘The Hills’ and ‘Can’t Feel My Face’. His follow-up was 2016’s acclaimed Starboy, which left fans desperate for another record they’re yet to receive.
However, we were given a taste of his forthcoming fourth LP with the smash single ‘Blinding Lights’. Along with this, we were treated to his debut feature film performance in the Safdie brothers’ Uncut Gems, starring as himself alongside the likes of Adam Sandler.
The film reaches Netflix on Friday, January 31st 2020, but before then, we’ve been invited to watch him in the exhilarating video for the aforementioned ‘Blinding Lights’…

The Weeknd attends the premiere of A24’s “Uncut Gems” at The Dome at ArcLight Hollywood on December 11, 2019 in Hollywood, California.

The Weeknd: ‘Blinding Lights’ music video

It’s fuelled by eighties nostalgia, with bursts of neon perfectly complimenting the gorgeous electronic sound.
Arguably, this is one of the more stylish videos we’ve seen in recent memory, packed with colour, fast cars, nocturnal cityscapes and luxurious locations – let’s not forget the violence!
The Weeknd is back with all the charisma you’d interrogate from him, but it’s the authoritative direction which really stands out here. Check out some reactions to the video on Twitter:

Who is Anton Tammi?

Anton Tammi is the director of The Weeknd’s ‘Blinded Lights’ music video.
He’s becoming a rather renowned music video director, and actually, he worked with The Weekend previously and rather recently on the 2019 ‘Heartless’ video.
Besides that, he’s worked with other popular artists such as Lykke Li, Halsey and JIL, having helmed such videos as:
– Halsey: ‘Graveyard’ (2019)
– Halsey: ‘Clementine’ 2019)
– Lykke Li: ‘Hard Rain’ (2018)
– Lykke Li: ‘Deep End’ (2018)
– JIL: ‘All Your Words’ (2017)
You can view all of these over on his website.
Back in 2018, Booooooom TV interviewed Anton about the ‘Hard Rain’ video, and at the end asked him about the future. He responded with: “I’d love to try to do a thing where we are writing and shooting and editing with a story (not only visuals) as the main focus. Something with dialogue. Music videos can often be a bit — how should I put it — too beautiful.”
Well, he may have just made his most beautiful yet!

Follow Anton Tammi on Instagram! 

We’re excited to see what Anton has in store.
If you are too, you’d be wise to follow him over on Instagram at @antontammi; he currently has 12.7k followers. As you’d expect, there are a bunch of posts promoting his latest video for The Weeknd.
Let’s hope they collaborate again soon.

James Blunt’s emotional Monster music video has had fans in tears with a touching tribute to his father.
It goes without saying that music videos are pretty big business.
They help artists and singers get their songs out there and sometimes a good music video can arguably make the song itself take on a whole new meaning.
As a result, we’ve seen everything from ultra-slick and hugely expensive videos to more simple video clips.
The new video for James Blunt’s song Monsters falls into the latter of the two categories but that doesn’t stop the song from proving to be an emotional sucker-punch.

• MORE MUSIC: Everything you need to know about the 2020 Grammys venue
  

James Blunt’s Monsters video

The video for James Blunt’s song Monsters is arguably as simple as music videos get but it’s super effective as a result.
The majority of the video focuses in on James Blunt’s face as he sings the hugely emotional song to camera… and that’s it. 
That is until we hit the 2:45 min mark in the video and the shot widens to show James sitting in an old-timey kitchen with his father. 

Meet James Blunt’s father

James Blunt’s father is Colonel Charles Blount, a man with a distinguished military career that has seen him inhabit the ranks of the 13th/18th Royal Hussars as a cavalry officer before becoming a helicopter pilot and colonel of the Army Air Corps.
Blount (which is where James’ Blunt stage name comes from) was clearly a huge inspiration to his son who followed his father into military service, a long-standing tradition in the Blount family which reportedly dates as far back as the 10th century. 

Why was he featured in the Monsters video?

The reason why Charles Blount appears in James Blunt’s Monsters music video is simply because the song is about him.
This is because Blunt’s father has been diagnosed with anecdote stage-four kidney disease and is in need of a kidney transplant.
And after a career in the military, James Blunt has been conditioned to have a stiff upper lip, as it were, and so has taken to song to expressionless his feelings about his father and his illness, almost as if it’s a touching farewell to his father.

The 2020 Grammys are almost here but where is the event being held?
While it may be awards season in the film and TV industry, the same can also be said for the music world as well.
Coming up for those in the music industry are the noted Grammy Awards, often regarded by many as the Oscars of the music world.
The annual celebration of the last 12 months of music has been a huge event for artists and fans alike and 2020’s edition looks to be no different, just like this year’s venue.

Where are the 2020 Grammys held?

The 2020 Grammys will take place in Los Angeles’ Stapels Center, the home of the LA Lakers and LA Clippers NBA basketball teams as well as the Los Angeles Kings hockey team of the NHL.
The Staples Center has long been the home of the Grammy Awards and has hosted every year since 2000, apart from in 2003 and 2018 when the awards moved to New York’s Madison Square Garden.

The Staples Center: What you need to know

The Staples Center splendid opened in 1999 and is a modern multi-purpose arena that hosts everything from conventions and music gigs to sports fixtures.
In the main arena, the Staples Center has a seating capacity of up to 21,000 but the capacity for concerts is reduced to between 10,000 and 13,000 which is more likely for the for Grammy Awards. 

How to watch

As of yet, there is no concrete information on how to watch the Grammys in the UK.
Last year, however, according to The Sun: “CBS will be streaming the ceremony live online at CBS All Access. This is a paid service but it’s possible to get a seven-day free trial. You can also watch the Grammys if you have a subscription to YouTube TV, Hulu Live TV, or PlayStation Vue.”
It’s likely that these methods will also apply to the 2020 ceremony, which takes place on Monday, January 27th 2020 at 1:00am GMT or 8:00pm EST on January 26th in the US.
We’ll keep our eyes peeled for any updates ahead of the big day!

Can’t get that song out of your head? You’re not alone.
Learning never felt so fun…
Most of us look to Netflix for entertainment, and often, this tends to come in the form of fiction, with dramas, comedies and genre work dominating our attention.
However, sometimes we arrive the evening and our brain announces that we’re not done with learning for the day. The obvious remedy for this restlessness is to stick a documentary on. Non-fiction filmmaking has become an even more popular phenomenon in recent years, and few have capitalised on this better than the esteemed streaming service.
One of the best they have to offer is undoubtedly Explained, which offers a wealth of insight into numerous things across palatable and breezy episodes.

Explained on Netflix: Intro song

Season 2 is going down an absolute treat, and as we continue to discover this batch of new episodes, we find ourselves becoming increasingly addicted to the intro song.
It’s great, isn’t it!
Well, the piece of music comes courtesy of composer Jackson Greenberg and is available to listen to on the likes of Spotify, YouTube and Soundcloud among others.
If you’re a big documentary fan – or even of TV at wide – then chances are you’ve heard his work beyond the Explained intro…

The great Jackson Greenberg

Remember the charming Netflix show Dating Around which premiered earlier in 2019?
If so, then we’re sure you also remember the lovely music which accompanied it; yeah, that was the work of Jackson Greenberg!
He’s composed the music for a number of short films, from 2011’s I’m Here: A Requiem for the Kids to Kate & Lily, but there’s some TV in his oeuvre too, including Herman, Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On and Afflicted.
Perhaps more notably, on the other hand, he was responsible for the music featured in the 2015 documentary Cartel Land. If you haven’t seen it, you certainly should – it’s utterly fascinating. Other credits include City of Ghosts and Maybe Next Year.

Follow him on Instagram! 

You can find Jackson on Instagram at @jxngreenberg; he currently has 1,171 followers.
Lately, a number of fans have taken to Twitter to expressionless how much they love the intro song, with one writing: “Why does the explained theme song slap so hard?”
Another tweeted: “They finally put the Explained theme song on Apple Music, this is a day to be remembered,” while one admirer joked: “Hear me out… a rave, but it’s just the intro song to Explained.”
We think we’d be down for that!

Some fans are still curious about the sensational singer’s wardrobe.
It isn’t the first time people have asked why Gregory Porter always wears a hat.
Lucky for us, it looks like 2020 is going to be a big year for the beloved singer-songwriter! He recently unveiled the music video for his new single ‘Revival’, which released on Thursday, January 16th.
It’s a terrific track, and it’s certainly got us in the mood for his announcement of UK tour dates, which according to the Express are as follows:
May 5th – Cheltenham Jazz Festival
May 9th – Manchester Arena
May 10th – Cardiff Motorpoint Arena
May 11th – Leeds First Direct Arena
May 13th – Glasgow SEC Hydro
May 14th – Newcastle Utilita Arena
May 16th – Birmingham Resorts World Arena
May 17th – Hull Bonus Arena
May 19th to 23rd– London Royal Albert Hall
May 25th – Bournemouth International Centre
May 26th – Brighton Centre
The source also confirms that he has a new album on the way too, called All Rise. However, with the record arises a unique question…

Gregory Porter performs onstage at Cheltenham Jazz Festival 2019 on May 4, 2019 in Cheltenham, England.

Gregory Porter fans take to Twitter 

For many years now, fans have expressed their confusion as to why Gregory is so very rarely seen without his trademark hat.
Check out a selection of tweets below:

Why does Gregory Porter always wear a hat?

As highlighted by Smooth Radio, an interviewer for Jazz Weekly once asked him: “What’s with the weird and wonderful hat?”
Gregory replied: “I’ve had some surgery on my skin, so this has been my look for a little while and will continue to be for a while longer. People recognise me by it now. It is what it is.”
The same source also includes that he calls the flat cap – which is a Kangol Summer Spitfire with additional strap – his “jazz hat”.
Well, that certainly explains it! We’ve all got that one item of clothing that we’ve wholeheartedly embraced like no other.

More on that iconic hat…

Obviously, that isn’t the only time the hat has been brought up in conversation.
It really is his look now – we’d miss it if he were to ditch it completely! Then again, we really don’t think he’ll be parting ways with it anytime soon. In conversation with The Independent, he opened up more about it: “I get recognised for the hat in airports. In the UK, they know me quite well but they don’t give me a free pass, I get fully checked and secured.”
He continued: “There has been a time or two when I have been asked to sing to let them know it’s really me. When a person in uniform asks you to do something you are conditioned to do it.”
If we ever saw that hat on the horizon, we’d definitely be inclined to be on the lookout for Gregory too!

It’s always an exciting time when BBC Radio 1xtra release their list of Hot new artists for the year ahead.

But it can often be tricky to discover new artist on your own, especially if you play the same Spotify playlist on repeat.

What is Radio 1xtra’s Hot for 2020 list?

• Lucky Daye 
• Mastermind

Who to look out for

Obviously, 15 music artists is a lot to go through, and we strongly recommend giving each of them a listen, but we’ve cherry-picked three of the most promising artists on the list to have a closer look.
Darkoo
Darkoo is a solo female rapper whose biggest work to date is the song Gangsta which, alongside featured artist One Acen, has earned over 6.4 million views on YouTube.
Lila Ikè
Lila Ikè has potential to take centre stage in the reggae music genre as her Caribbean tones make her songs a pleasant listen. Lila’s biggest song to date is her most recent single Second Chance which boasts 1.5 YouTube views.

EE have gone big with their latest advert for 5G data.
There’s a lot to be said for having a catchy or recognisable song in an advert.
A well-known song that people will remember can sometimes be key to an advertising campaign and mobile giants EE have clearly taken that on board with their latest commercial for superfast 5G data.
The advert manages to show off the incredible power of 5G internet speeds with a mind-blowing sequence while also featuring one of the biggest songs of the last decade.

The EE 5G advert

The advert in question sees EE’s trusty stalwart Kevin Bacon showing off the power of 5G as he invites a women to check out what’s about to be shown on a phone and they are treated to an all-new musical experience.
Through 5G, we see a stunning AR (augmented reality) musical performance take place in a train station that sees CGI elements superimposed over the real-life image to create a truly mind-blowing event.

What’s the song?

EE have clearly spared no expense with their music budget as the song used in the advert is 2012’s Pompeii by British band Bastille.
The song is the band’s biggest hit by a long, long way and was easily one of the biggest songs of the year, even being turned into a hilarious Paul Blart: Mall Cop-themed meme.

Who’s the singer?

The singer in the advert is, of course, none other than Bastille’s own frontman Dan Smith.
We see the singer introduce the AR experience before he embarks on a unique rendition of Bastille’s Pompeii.

If you’re in Australia, be careful of the drop bears!
You’ve heard of Bigfoot and El Chupacabra, but what about the drop bear?
For many of us, there will always be something arresting and ultimately exciting about tall tales of monsters and creatures of the night.
There are many urban legends which have been reinforced throughout the years. However, some are better noted than others. For example, heavenly much everybody is aware of the mysterious Loch Ness Monster, but everywhere has their own unique story…
In Australia, there are many surrounding the distinguished drop bear.

Purkunas the koala is seen during a tour of the Taronga Zoo’s Wildlife Hospital at Taronga Zoo on January 14, 2020 in Sydney, Australia. The Federal Government has granted $1 million to…

What is a drop bear?

It’s fictional!
The drop bear is sometimes cited in contemporary Australian folklore and is essentially a very vicious and predatory spin on the koala.
If you’ve ever been to Australia, you may have heard of the drop bear being mentioned, as there are many cautionary stories which have been made up to scare tourists. It’s all a bit of fun, of course!
To report what one is described to look like, just imagine a koala but bigger, with a very menacing expression on its face dropping from the trees ready to ruin your day.
They’re said to hide in the trees and wait for people to walk by to drop down on, hence then name. For a taste of the info people may relay about the fictional drop bear, check out the prank video below:

Debi Edward encounters a drop bear!

The latest prank is probably the best yet.
As highlighted by The Telegraph, TV reporter Debi Edward was the latest to fall prey… obviously not to a drop bear, but a prank!
Recently in Australia to cover the heartbreaking bushfire damage on Kangaroo Island – off the skim of South Australia – she visited the wildlife park. While there, she was tricked into thinking she was about to hold a drop bear. As you would, she got dressed up in body armour before holding the creature, which was actually just a friendly koala.
The video is absolutely priceless:

Drop Bear talk invades Twitter

A number of people have taken to Twitter to laugh about the video. Check out some of the best tweets below:
