Imagine Dragons Postpone South American Tour Over Singer Dan Reynolds’ Vocal, Knee Injuries

Imagine Dragons informed fans on Monday (Oct. 17) that they’ve been forced to postpone the planned South American leg of their Mercury World tour due to a number of ailments affecting singer Dan Reynolds. “We are very sorry to share that we have to postpone our Latin American shows,” they wrote in a tweet announcing the news.

“In our 12 years as a band, we’ve never had to cancel a tour (and could count the number of shows on one hand),” they continued. “We hope you guys know how hard it is for us to postpone these dates, and we plan to make it up to you soon.” The band explained that Reynolds’ recent struggles with hemorrhaged vocal cords and a vocal nodule that have lingered since the last leg of the tour have become serious enough that his doctors have warned that hitting the road now could cause a “rupture and irreparably harm his voice.”

In addition, Reynolds is now also unexpectedly dealing with a “fairly serious” tear in the LCL (lateral collateral ligament) in his knee that will require a brace and extensive physical therapy. “We just can’t give you the show you expect and deserve right now,” they wrote.

“We will keep everyone updates as we figure out new dates, and we are so sorry for those who made travel and other plans to see us,” they concluded, saying refunds will be made available to those who can’t travel to the as-yet-unscheduled make-up dates. The South American swing was slated to kick off on Tuesday (Oct. 18) in Bogota, Colombia at Coliseo Live and include dates in Chile, Argentina, Brazil and Mexico.

A$AP Rocky Tells Judge He’s Too Busy To Attend Deposition In A$AP Relli Shooting Lawsuit

A$AP Rocky has reportedly claimed he’s too busy to attend a deposition date in his A$AP Relli shooting lawsuit.

According to Radar Online, Rocky’s legal team have asked the judge for more time before he’s questioned due to his busy music career and business ventures.

A$AP Rocky, who stands accused of shooting A$AP Relli in November 2021, reportedly agreed to sit down for a deposition on November 16. However, Relli demanded he appear on October 19 and apparently even threatened to ask for sanctions if he didn’t show.

Rocky believes Relli — a producer and talent manager who was previously affiliated with the A$AP Mob — and his legal team are being difficult to work with and are refusing to schedule an alternative deposition date.

Defending his busy schedule, A$AP Rocky’s lawyer said in a court filing his client is an “award-winning international recording artist, recording executive and music producer,” who in addition to “recording, touring and performing worldwide, oversees several other business ventures including collaborations with national and international brands.”

Subsequently, his “various commitments and obligations substantially impose upon his time and professional schedule.” A judge has yet to rule on the matter.

A$AP Rocky Responds To A$AP Relli’s Shooting Lawsuit, Claims Relli Didn’t ‘Exercise Reasonable Care’ To Avoid Harm

September 16, 2022

A$AP Relli filed a civil lawsuit against A$AP Rocky for assault, battery, negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress over an alleged November 2021 shooting in Hollywood.

Relli claimed he was asked to meet Rocky at a random location, which led to an argument taking place and Rocky firing multiple shots at him, with one striking his left hand.

The Harlem rapper denied all the allegations, claiming any injuries or damages “were caused solely, directly and proximately by the negligent and/or intentional acts or omissions” of someone else, as well as Relli’s failure to “exercise reasonable care to avoid the consequences of harm.”

A$AP Rocky was arrested at LAX months after the alleged shooting and has since been charged with two counts of assault with a firearm. He appeared in court in August and pleaded not guilty to the charges.

If convicted, he faces up to nine years in prison.

Jeezy Teases Collabs With Kanye West, Rihanna & More In ‘Snofall’ Documentary

Jeezy has teased collaborations with Kanye West and Rihanna on his upcoming Snofall mixtape.

The Atlanta rapper shared part one of a documentary on the project called The Making of Snofall on Instagram on Monday (October 17), which captures him cooking up in the lab with J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, the production team behind “F.A.M.E.,” “Bury Me a G” and “Word Play.”

At one point in the video, a handwritten tracklist for Snofall appears on a whiteboard behind Jeezy, showing appearances from Ye and RiRi, as well as Post Malone, DJ Khaled, EST Gee and 42 Dugg.

The tracklist features 13 songs, including a track called “Michael Jackson Jeezy.” However, it’s unclear whether the tracklist is final.

Jeezy announced Snofall earlier this month as a collaboration with DJ Drama and DJ Cannon, with the project set to be released on Friday (October 21).

Jeezy previously collaborated with Rihanna on “Hard” from her 2009 album Rated R, while teaming up with Kanye West on “Put On” from The Succession and “Amazing” from 808s & Heartbreak in 2008.

His vocals also famously appeared on Kanye’s hit single “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” from 2007’s Graduation album. Speaking to HipHopDX in 2019, Jeezy explained how the song came about.

“‘Get My Money Right’ was a song with me and T.I. for my album The Recession,” he said. “I sent it to Ye, [he] put a verse on it, but Ye wanted to know who produced the record. So I told him DJ Toomp produced the record. So somehow, he got in contact with DJ Toomp and changed his whole sonics on his verse.

Jeezy Recalls Being Name-Dropped By Kendrick Lamar On ‘Good Kid, M.A.A.D City’

October 4, 2022

“So when he sent it back, I’m just like, ‘Yo man, it’s a whole different song. I gotta turn my album in in two days, I can’t…’ He was just like, ‘I’m telling you, it’s crazy.’ I was just like, ‘Yo, I just can’t use it.’ So I never used it.”

The CTE boss continued: “Time goes by, six months later, I’m in L.A., [Kanye] calls me to come to the studio, he wanted to play me something. He played me ‘Wait ‘Til I Get My Money Right,’ which is the same song and same verse that he sent me, he just added another verse to it.

“Then he asked me, ‘Yo, can I keep your ad-libs?’ I was like, ‘You know what, you can. It’s cool.’ ‘Get My Money Right’ came out in a hit for him. I was just like, ‘Damn, I just gave Ye a hit record.’”

Jeezy’s last album The Recession 2 was released in November 2020. The project featured Rick Ross, Yo Gotti, E-40 and more, and debuted at No. 19 on the Billboard 200 with roughly 28,000 total album-equivalent units in its first week.

Kendrick Lamar’s ‘good kid, m.A.A.d city’ Makes Billboard Chart History Ahead Of 10th Anniversary

Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city has a big reason to celebrate — and not just because of its imminent 10th anniversary.

According to Chart Data, Kendrick’s major label debut has now spent a full 10 years on the Billboard 200, becoming the first Hip Hop studio album to achieve the feat.

The project has extended its lead as the longest-charting Hip Hop studio album in Billboard history, a title it has held since 2019 when it surpassed Eminem’s The Eminem Show.

good kid, m.A.A.d city occupies the No. 46 spot on the most recent edition of the Billboard 200, and is one of three albums from the Compton native on the chart alongside this year’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (No. 26) and 2017’s Pulitzer Prize-winning DAMN. (No. 63).

Within Hip Hop, its 520 weeks on the chart is eclipsed only by Eminem’s Curtain Call — technically a compilation, not a studio album — which has charted for over 600 weeks (roughly 11 years and 6 months).

Released on October 22, 2012 via Top Dawg Entertainment, Interscope and Aftermath, good kid, m.A.A.d city made a huge splash upon its arrival and was deemed an instant “classic” by some.

Camila Cabello Faces ‘Most Terrible’ Decision During ‘The Voice’ Battles

The gloves are off, the Battles round is upon us on NBC’s The Voice, and the remaining contestants are wearing their big boy/girl pants. It’s no time for a slip-up.

On Monday night (Oct. 17), Grace Bello went head-to-head with Reina Ley for a performance of Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time,” a timeless gem that went all the way to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1984.

Ley, a thirteen-year-old hopeful from San Tan Valley, Arizona, is a member of Team Camila Cabello, catching the Cuba-born pop star’s attention in the Blind Auditions with a mariachi song, “Cielito Lindo”.

Bello, a 21-year-old who raised in Cibolo, Texas, and now based in Lacey, Washington, announced herself on the talent show with an audition of Justin Bieber’s “Ghost,” a performance that was rewarded with a four-chair turn and a spot on Team Cabello.

With the lights a little brighter in the Battles, and the pressure ratcheted up a notch, it was Ley who impressed.

“Reina, your voice is unbelievable,” Gwen Stefani enthuses. “I was shocked. Your tone is so warm and deep and rich, and I could feel you, that you understood what the lyric was doing and saying.”

John Legend remarked on how “secure” and “confident” she was in the melody and the moment. “I was really impressed.”

Blake Shelton cut to the chase. “I wish you could get in your head how super-talented you are,” the country star says. “I just felt like you’ve lost some confidence at some point between the Blind Auditions and right now. You seem scared up there, which, by the way, is ridiculous because you’re so good.”

Whereas Reina, he continues, “she’s 13 and she doesn’t even realize how much pressure this should be… She just came out here and did her thing and owned it and because of that your voice just came through stronger.”

The pressure then fell on Cabello, who had a decision to make. “This is just a sucky situation because I have two really talented people,” she remarks. “I don’t think one was better than the other. If I had a ‘Save,’ neither of you would be going home.”

Just before the axe fell, she added, “I hate this so much. This is the most terrible I’ve felt literally in all of these Battles.”

There could be only one winner, and that was Ley.

Applebaum and Thompson were recognized for their co-writes on a slew of DJ and producer Joel Corry’s hits, including 2020’s “Head And Heart” (via Asylum/Perfect Havoc) featuring MNEK, which ruled the Official U.K. Singles Chart for six week; and 2021’s “Bed,” with Raye and David Guetta, which peaked at No. 3.

The pair also scooped winning hot dance/electronic song awards for “Head And Heart,” alongside co-writers MNEK, Robert Harvey, Leo Kalyan and Lewis Thompson; and for “Bed.”

Also on the night, Indian film composer Mithoon bagged a brace of awards, taking home song of the year and top streaming song for “Whoopty,” a No. 3 U.K. hit for drill rapper CJ (“Whoopty” prominently sampled Mithoon’s “Sanam Re”).

Joby Talbot’s Sing 2 score was named top box office film of the year, one of 11 categories honoring ASCAP’s leading composers in the worlds of film and TV.

Other film awards went to the likes of Radiohead founding member and composer Jonny Greenwood for his work on Spencer, and Christopher Benstead for Guy Ritchie’s Wrath of Man.

Anne-Marie and Aitch’s ‘Psycho’ Stalks U.K. Midweek Top 5

Sam Smith and Kim Petras are on the verge of completing an “Unholy” (EMI) month in the U.K.

The hit collaboration leads the midweek U.K. chart and is heading for a fourth consecutive week at No. 1.

“Unholy” heads an unchanged top 4, as a psycho stalks the top 5. Anne-Marie and Aitch’s “Psycho” (via Atlantic) is eying an 8-5 climb, for what would be a new high in its fifth week on the chart.

Based on midweek data, Stormzy’s on target for the highest new entry with “Hide & Seek” (Def Jam). It’s chasing a No. 9 debut. If it holds its ground, “Hide & Seek” will give the Brit Award winner a 13th U.K. top 10.

Further down the list, Oliver Tree and Robin Schulz’s “Miss You” (Atlantic) could crack the top 20 for the first time, bouncing 16 places to No. 12 on the Official Chart Update. It’s battling another version of “Miss You,” cut by 19-year-old German producer Southstar, who has accused his compatriot Schulz of releasing a “copycat version” (Schulz and Tree have yet to respond to the accusation). Southstar’s “Miss You” (B1/Ministry Of Sound) is new at No. 26 on the chart blast.

West London rapper Central Cee is flying high with his new cut, “One Up” (Central Cee) which starts at No. 17 on the chart blast. Since bursting onto the scene with 2020’s “Loading,” Central Cee has secured 13 U.K. top 40s, including four top 10s.

Blink-182’s freshly-reunited classic line-up of Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Tom DeLonge could bag an 11th U.K. top 40 appearance with “Edging” (Columbia), new at No. 23 on the chart update. “Edging” is the first cut from the pop-punk favorites’ forthcoming album, and the first with DeLonge since the singer/guitarist left the band for a second time, in 2014.

Finally, the “lost” Queen track “Face It Alone” (EMI) is impacting the midweek tally. The previously unheard track features vocals from the band’s iconic late singer Freddie Mercury and was recorded during the 1988 sessions for the band’s penultimate album with Mercury, 1989’s The Miracle.

The song is the lead single from the upcoming Nov. 18 re-release of the band’s 13th album, which will be available as the 8-disc Queen The Miracle Collector’s Edition boxed set.

With “Face It Alone,” Queen should add to their tally of 55 career titles on the U.K. singles chart. It’s new at No. 46 on the chart blast.

All will be revealed when the Official U.K. Singles Chart is published Friday (Oct. 21).

The 1975 Lead Red Hot Chili Peppers In U.K. Chart Race

The U.K. albums chart battle is heating up as Red Hot Chili Peppers apply the pressure on the 1975.

Based on midweek data published by the Official Charts Company, the 1975 is out front with Being Funny In A Foreign Language (Dirty Hit), the British alternative rock act’s fifth studio album.

The Chili Peppers could have a say in that.

The veteran California rockers start at No. 2 on the Official Chart Update with Return Of The Dream Canteen (Warner Records). It’s their 13th album and the follow-up to Unlimited Love, which led the U.K. chart in April of this year.

With their Return, RHCP should nab a 10th U.K. top 10 appearance, a track record that includes five No. 1s.

Rounding out an all-new top five on the chart blast is U.S. band Alter Bridge’s Pawns & Kings (Napalm), at No. 3; Atlanta rapper Lil Baby’s It’s Only Me (Motown/Quality Control), at No. 4; and Dexys Midnight Runners’ Too-Rye-Ay (Mercury), a reissue of the Birmingham, England band’s sophomore album from 1982, which featured the classic single “Come on Eileen”. The LP, which peaked at No. 2 following its original release, is set to return to the top 10 for the first time in 40 years, the OCC reports.

Also charging to the top ten is English indie rock act Big Moon, with Here Is Everything (Fiction), which is on track for a career-best No. 6, while Lightning Seeds should bolt into the top tier with See You In The Stars (BMG), the Britpop era band’s first LP in 13 years. It’s set to debut at No. 7, and could become the band’s highest-charting studio album in a 32-year career.

Close behind is the Vamps’ career retrospective Ten Years Of The Vamps (UMR/Virgin), which is poised to start at No. 5, for what would be the British pop band’s fifth top 10 record.

Finally, veteran artist and production mastermind Brian Eno is on track for a career solo high with his 22nd studio album FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE (Universal Music Recordings), starting at No. 10 on the midweek chart.

Keith Whitley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Joe Galante Expand The Country Music Hall Of Fame

The country music industry may be centered in Nashville, but much of the talent and sound behind Music City’s best-known export originates elsewhere.

The Country Music Hall of Fame medallion ceremony on Oct. 16 provided a strong reminder that the genre synthesizes people, style and abilities from across America. Late honoree Keith Whitley found his way to Nashville from eastern Kentucky through a bluegrass portal. Record executive Joe Galante brought marketing savvy to town from New York after working rock records by David Bowie and Lou Reed.

And Jerry Lee Lewis — forced by an illness to stay home — developed his flashy piano playing and performance skills after hanging out at R&B/blues club Haney’s Big House in Ferriday, La., before launching his recording career in Memphis ahead of his shift to country in 1968.

The first performance during the induction — Alabama’s “My Home’s in Alabama,” a song that was key in the band signing with Galante at RCA in 1980 — clung to that concept, celebrating the group’s hometown roots despite exploring a range of American cities. 

The rest of the guest list similarly represented multiple facets of popular music and geographical backgrounds. Oklahoman Garth Brooks found all the dramatic high points of Whitley’s “Don’t Close Your Eyes” in a guitar/vocal format, ironically closing his own eyes during the chorus while seemingly channeling the song’s lead character. Texan Lee Ann Womack created spine-tingling sensitivity in her version of Lewis’ “Middle Age Crazy,” infusing the late-’70s ballad with fierce sympathy and just a touch of scorn. East Tennessee-born Kenny Chesney fought through the emotionally challenging country love song “The Good Stuff,” a title that found favor in part because Galante pushed for its release to radio. And former San Francisco resident Chris Isaak delivered a faithful rendition of the Killer’s “Great Balls of Fire,” replete with heavily reverbed vocals and Jen Gunderman’s interpretation of Lewis’ piano-banging and shiny glissandos.

Galante recalled in his acceptance speech that late BMI executive Frances Preston, a 1992 Hall inductee, had told him that country music revolves around the song and the artist. That combination of impactful songs and distinct artists describes the works that defined the medallion ceremony’s honorees.

Lewis rode his “pumping piano” — as it was listed on the label of his early Sun recordings — to a singular place in rock and country history, with “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Going On” succeeding in both genres in the late 1950s. He refocused on country in 1968, leading to a 13-year run of hits that included a remake of “Chantilly Lace,” honky-tonk hit “What’s Made Milwaukee Famous (Has Made a Loser Out of Me)” and an improbable take on “Over the Rainbow,” bolstered with a self-reference to “ol’ Jerry Lee.”

“Jerry Lee doesn’t walk onstage and politely thank an audience for being there,” Hank Williams Jr. said while inducting the Killer. “Jerry Lee doesn’t ask for your attention. He demands it. He doesn’t take the stage. He commands it … Jerry Lee doesn’t play songs. He owns songs.”

Whitley applied a rich vocal tone to tunes he inhabited emotionally. “Don’t Close Your Eyes,” “I’m No Stranger to the Rain” and “When You Say Nothing at All” — performed by Mickey Guyton during the ceremony while Hall of Fame member Don Schlitz, who co-wrote it, watched from the audience — provided his first three No. 1 hits in just a few months in the late 1980s, earning significant airplay at the time he died from alcohol poisoning in 1989. Where Lewis is famously confident, Whitley hid lingering self-doubts, a trait that was perhaps key to his ability to embody sadness and vulnerability in his recordings.

“Keith was three weeks away from being made a member of the Grand Ole Opry when he passed away,” recalled Lorrie Morgan, who was his wife at the time. “He didn’t know it. And he would have never suspected this [induction] in his life.”

Whitley’s breakthrough made him an addition to the new traditionalist movement of that era, and he became a significant influence on many acts who followed him, including Tim McGraw, Chris Young and Brooks, who officially inducted him into the Hall.

“This night,” Brooks announced, “is long overdue.”

Galante, meanwhile, was hailed as an executive who, by asking the right questions, helped the country industry better understand its product, its audience and the connection between them. He developed data, as Hall of Fame CEO Kyle Young noted, that informed difficult decisions and inspired marketing plans for a product that had frequently been worked on gut instinct. Not that Galante operated strictly from a mathematical playbook.

“Joe also looked beyond the numbers, to the things you can’t quantify, like originality and heart,” said Young. “He overruled the data when it felt right.”

Galante’s successes were numerous. He directed key campaigns for Waylon Jennings, Dolly Parton, Ronnie Milsap, Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride and Miranda Lambert, who performed a guitar/vocal version of “White Liar” in his honor. Kix Brooks, while inducting Galante, noted that Brooks & Dunn was contemplating a split when a merger put the executive in charge of their label. The chance to work with “Joe frickin’ Galante” was enough incentive for the duo to give it one more try, which turned into a second 10-year run.

Galante’s own sensitivities were on display during his acceptance speech, where he told how his father, a 30-year postal service employee, had never understood the job that consumed his son. He discovered only after his dad’s death that the elder Galante had routinely purchased Billboard off newsstands in New York and saved photos and stories about his boy.

“You get the point,” Galante said, just before the emotion took over the story.

Ultimately, it’s those human tales — the ones delivered by singular artists — that built both Music City and the Rotunda that houses the bronze plaques of the Country Music Hall of Fame. Johnny Cash, Jimmie Rodgers and Willie Nelson will have to make room for three more occupants who made their entrance somewhere else but left their mark in Nashville.

Gunna Files Fourth Motion For Bond

Just days after being denied bond for the third time, Gunna’s legal team has filed a fourth motion to secure his bond.

According to documents viewed by Complex and Rolling Stone on Monday (October 17), Gunna’s attorney, Steve Sadow, said the state has “failed to show adequate proof” that his client would be prone to “intimidating witnesses” if released.

“The defense produced real evidence that Kitchens is a good candidate for pretrial bond and has offered an abundance of conditions that will reasonably assure the Court that Kitchens poses no significant risk or threat to any person,” the filing reportedly reads. “Yet, for some unknown reason, the Court has repeatedly ignored this evidence and the proposed conditions.”

Sadow described Gunna’s incarceration as a “miscarriage of justice” and has guaranteed his client’s innocence on all charges against him.

Gunna — born Sergio Kitchens — was denied bond for the third time on October 13 by Judge Ural Glanville over concerns of witness intimidation.

“The other challenge that our imperfect system hasn’t figured out a way to deal with other than reconsidering the issue of bond and changing circumstances of bond is [to] acknowledge for proof that may or may not come to trial, but the state brings that burden at this point in time,” he explained.

“And it’s not a perfect system in the sense that we won’t know until that point in time whether or not many of these statements that have been preferred by the state will come to pass. But at this point in time, I don’t find any change in circumstances that would allow me or move me [to] changing my decision as to bond.”
