Building on the spirit of DIY mutual aid, Vital Arts leads several programs, including a paid fellowship and free legal cafes, that work to address artists' material needs in the expensive Bay Area.

20 Songs We'd Put on Guitar Hero if They Made the Game Today

Even after all these years, it's hard not to think about Guitar Hero when hearing songs like Living Colour's "Cult of Personality," Ozzy Osbourne's "Bark at the Moon," or Heart's "Barracuda." Though the early editions featured covers of these popular songs rather than the originals, they honored the spirit of playing a real rock gig while giving us a selection of songs new and old to obsess over.

Most of it was the conga preset on Prince's drum machine': how Fine Young Cannibals made She Drives Me Crazy

I was in a band in Hull called Akrylykz. When the Beat came to play at the Welly club we gave them a demo tape. Then they invited us to tour with them. Later, after they split up, Andy Cox and David Steele were looking for a singer for a new band and they remembered me. Fine Young Cannibals felt right straight away. After The Tube filmed us doing Johnny Come Home, we just took off.

AI country artist hits #1 on Billboard digital songs chart

Look at Breaking Rust's social media pages and you'll find nothing to indicate there's an actual human involved in the music-making portion of the band's songs - just a chiseled-jawed, clearly AI-generated cowboy, and video clips featuring folksy people doing folksy things or slow-walking away from the camera.

Max B Freed From Prison After 16 Years

Max B walked free from prison yesterday (November 9) after serving 16 years behind bars. The Harlem rapper received a 75-year sentence in 2009 for helping orchestrate an armed robbery that went awry, resulting in a man's death. Max B, who was in another state at the time of the robbery, eventually had his sentence reduced to 20 years on account of a conflict of interest in the original case and a subsequent plea deal on an aggravated manslaughter charge.

Katy Perry's Manager Celebrates Wendy's Store Closures After Brand Mocked Space Flight

In another post, the company joked, "I kissed the ground and i liked it" while captioning a photo of Perry kissing the ground after landing. It's worth noting that the corporate team at Wendy's later issued an apology for the tweets in an attempt to get back in Perry's good graces. "We always bring a little spice to our socials, but Wendy's has a ton of respect for Katy Perry and her out-of-this-world-talent," the company said.

Habits of Life

Music drifts through our daily lives the way light slips through blinds. Quiet, constant, and easy to overlook. It hums in grocery stores, pulses in elevators, fills the space between us on the subway. Most of the time, we barely notice. But when we stop, when we choose one song, silence the noise, and really listen, music transforms. A breath slows. A memory surfaces. A question arises that we did not know we were carrying.
