Sir Elton John blessed a sold-out crowd in Moline, IL at the TaxSlayer Center (formerly the iWireless Center) tonight, performing an over 2-hour set that covered his decades of hits and fan favorites.
With performances of ‘Bennie and the Jets’, ‘Daniel’, ‘Rocket Man’, ‘Tiny Dancer’, ‘The Bitch Is Back’, Candle in the Wind’ and many more, fans from Moline, Chicago, Davenport and throughout Illinois and Iowa left the concert with a night that they won’t soon forget. The 70-year-old icon hasn’t lost a step in his many decades of performing, and Sir Elton will rival anyone when it comes to the keys, and fans at the TaxSlayer Center were witness to just that.

It’s close to impossible for Beyonce to make a song with a rapper bigger than her husband, but with Eminem’s new single ‘Walk On Water’, that’s just what happened.
With a gospel influenced chorus from B, and spoken-word paced verses from Em, ‘Walk On Water’ is our first taste from Eminem’s forthcoming studio album, Revival, and unlike anything we have heard from the Detroit legend in the past.

Off his new self-titled solo debut, Harry Styles has dropped another music video from his LP, this time for his addictive track ‘Kiwi’.
And what better idea for a music video titled after food, than with a giant food fight with a bunch of kids? A food fight so good, that even Styles and a bunch of puppies get involved.
Watch Harry Styles’ fun music video for ‘Kiwi’ below.
After a couple of October performances, a memorable headlining set at the Voodoo Festival in New Orleans and three postponed dates throughout the country, the Foo Fighters picked things up where they left off in Madison, WI tonight, as the Seattle rockers brought their Concrete & Gold Tour to a sold-out Wisconsin crowd at the Kohl Center.
Performing for nearly three hours, with a setlist that covered the band’s new LP and their catalog of hits and B-sides, Dave Grohl and company did not disappoint, delivering a memorable night that Madison won’t soon forget. You can easily bet that many in attendance tonight will be glued to their computers this Friday (10 AM), to grab tickets to the band’s Wrigley Field performance this summer, because even 3-hours of the Foo Fighters will leave you wanting more.

Chicago’s Fake Shore Drive celebrated 10 years of helping break some of the biggest names in Chicago music last night with it’s huge anniversary concert at the Portage Theater, for part of Red Bull Sound Select‘s “30 Days In Chicago” series. And what better way to celebrate than boasting performances from some of the best rappers Chicago has to offer, and a huge reunion performance from the legendary hip-hop duo, the Big Tymers.
With a price of admission of only $15, Fake Shore Drive and Red Bull Sound Select gave fans their money’s worth just moments after doors opened, as the night was kicked off with performances and appearances from The Cool Kids, Twista, GLC, King Louie, G Herbo and many more.
But although Chicago kicked off the night, it was Detroit and Cash Money Records which brought the memorable evening to a close. ‘First Day Out’ rapper Tee Grizzley put on a great performance, bringing Detroit to the Windy City and setting the stage for Birdman and Mannie Fresh to put on an unforgettable show, and one of their rare and only performances in the past decade, rapping some Big Tymers classics like ‘Still Fly’, ‘Get Your Roll On’ and more.

Macklemore returned to The Rave’s Eagles Ballroom in Milwaukee tonight for another sold-out performance, after a memorable 2016 performance with Ryan Lewis, in the very same room. And while Macklemore was without his partner-in-crime this time around, as the duo of “Macklemore and Ryan Lewis” are currently on hiatus while the close friends take some time musically apart, Macklemore still brought the same fun energy in support of his new solo LP, Gemini.
Up first for the evening were opening sets from XP, Eric Nally and Travis Thompson, emerging artists that you can all find featured on Gemini. Not only did the cast of openers gain new fans with their opening performances, but all of the above would later join Macklemore on stage to perform their Gemini collaborations, ‘Church’, ‘Corner Store’ and ‘Ain’t Gonna Die Tonight’. Gemini also boasts features from artists like Kesha, Offset, Skylar Grey and Lil Yachty, but having some of the album’s featured artists, big or small, definitely was a nice bonus to the night.
But despite entertaining performances from XP, Nally and Thompson, the anticipation continued to build as it was time for the man of the hour to hit the stage. And to kick off his performance in support of his new album, Macklemore opened his set with Gemini‘s opening track, the Eric Nally-assisted ‘Ain’t Gonna Die Tonight’. Macklemore continued with two more tracks from the 2017 LP, his first solo album since 2005, before really getting the crowd going with his 2012 mega-hit, ‘Thrift Shop’.
The above sequence set the tone for the entire night as Macklemore performed the vast majority of his new album, while still taking time to pay homage to his catalog of hits with Ryan Lewis with performances of ‘White Walls’, ‘Thrift Shop’, ‘Downtown’ and ‘Same Love’. Then, to end the glorious night and close out his 17-song setlist, Macklemore gave fans a great encore performance of his Gemini single, ‘Glorious’. Fans already can’t wait for Macklemore’s next Milwaukee visit, no matter who he brings with him.

Despite a successful start to his solo career and a huge No. 2 record with Taylor Swift, Zayn Malik has yet to take his music and debut album on the road. While his former One Direction bandmates, like Harry Styles and Niall Horan, have performed a plethora of tour dates and radio shows, Zayn has had very limited time on stage since leaving 1D.
But that may soon change, as Zayn revealed to Billboard that he is planning a major tour in support of his new album. With levels of anxiety that have caused Zayn to cancel a number of international performances, and which has certainly delayed a potential tour, this news is huge for Malik’s fans.

Ahead of their anticipated performance at ComplexCON, N.E.R.D, which is comprised of Pharrell, Chad Hugo and Shay Hayley, has returned with their first new track since 2010.
With a rare rap verse from Rihanna, ‘Lemon’ has that classic N.E.R.D sound, proving that the trio hasn’t lost a step. Although Pharrell confirmed that the group was working on new music in 2015, the new record still comes as a big surprise to music fans everywhere. Let’s just hope that an entire album and a forthcoming tour will soon follow.
We’re siding with GOOD Music for CyHi The Prynce’s new Kanye West-assisted single ‘Dat Side’. Off CyHi’s forthcoming and highly anticipated debut album, No Dope On Sundays, the new track also marks the first new music from Kanye West in months, only increasing fans’ anticipation for his full return.
The track also has fans chirping whether or not the track is at all aimed at Taylor Swift, who recently referenced Kanye in her new album’s first single, ‘Look What You Made Me Do’. In ‘Dat Side’, which features cover art very similar to Swift’s upcoming LP, Kanye raps:
“People claim they praying for you, really they be preying on you,
all this shit is weighing on you, don’t look back they gaining on you,
Ye look down they aiming for you, all this shit is draining on you,
and them people claim to know you, put em on get famous on you,
then they go and blame it on you, you this good they can’t ignore you,
they don’t respect who came before em and made they lane,
so I pull the lambo out, and went and got it baptized”
Shots at Swift or not, ‘Dat Side’ is definitely a hot track and a must listen.
