beabadoobee announced ‘Pylon,’ her fourth album, out September 18. It’s the follow-up to her 2024 project, ‘This Is How Tomorrow Moves.’ The album takes its name from “the electricity towers that dot every major artery in the world—the strong, spindly structures that reminded [her] of her connection to friends and family at home while she was staring down extreme disconnection and isolation on tour over the past few years,” according to a press release. The 14 songs were built around waves of distortion, grunge, Midwest emo, and ‘90s radio rock. The album features collaborations from Hayley Williams, Turnstile’s Brendan Yates, Chino Moreno of Deftones, Pinegrove’s Evan Stephens Hall, Title Fight’s Shane Moran, and production from Matty Healy and George Daniel of The 1975 on “Write Me A Letter.” The lead single and music video “Sun Has Set” are out now, directed by her partner and longtime collaborator Jake Erland. This fall, @beabad00bee will hit the road for her Powerlines Tour, marking her first arena run. She’ll be performing across North America, the UK, and Europe; Violet Grohl and Wisp will be supporting. Artist presale opens June 29, and general on-sale begins July 2 on her website.

15 years ago today @tylerthecreator dropped 'GOBLIN.' The album featured Frank Ocean, Hodgy Beats, Jasper Dolphin, Taco, Domo Genesis, Mike G and Syd. Over the years, Tyler has expressed his disdain for the record, but loves it nonetheless. "Goblin is f*cking terrible, but I still love it," he told Rap Radar back in 2023.

14 years ago today, Odd Future (@ofwgkta) dropped "Oldie"—one of their most iconic videos that almost didn't happen. It only did because @tylerthecreator refused to let anyone turn the camera off.⁠ ⁠ The members of the group told the story of that day in an oral history published by The Ringer in 2022. When Odd Future descended on Milk Studios in Chelsea, the session unraveled fast. The XXL staff "were understandably trying to contain a group of rowdy kids," Mike G recalled, "but we weren't having it."⁠ ⁠ Someone plugged in an iPhone, "Oldie" came through the speakers, and director Lance Bangs kept his camera rolling over objections from the room. The moment Tyler realized what was happening, he called the shots: "No, f*ck that, Lance, keep shooting this sh*t.” What followed was a single, unedited take of the entire 10-minute posse cut performed live.⁠ ⁠ For @earlxsweat, freshly back from Samoa and still finding his footing, the whole day had a surreal quality: "It just felt like a cartoon, in the sense that n****s just was doin' whatever they wanted to do." For Tyler, zooming out in real time, the stakes were clearer: “I’ve seen music documentaries, this might be the last time everyone's together so we need to document this."⁠ ⁠ He was right. "A f*ckin' balloon popped that night, and we all went in our own directions. That was the last time we was all together like that. Still,” Tyler explained. Frank, looking back, arrived at the same place: "The atmosphere reminds me of how it feels to be in a room full of musicians where everyone is improvising and for a brief period it's pure magic. It's the same rush."⁠ ⁠ Bangs edited the footage on a laptop during a red-eye to Portland. It now sits at over 56 million views. It cost nothing.⁠
