Eminem’s long-time collaborator 50 Cent also makes a cameo, saying that Slim Shady is not a friend, but a psychopath. Eminem makes a brief appearance at the end of the video, claiming “I knew it was only a matter of time for Slim.”

It debuted atop the Billboard 200, making him the first artist with ten consecutive No. 1 albums in the US, and produced singles “Darkness”, “Godzilla” ft. Juice Wrld, and “Those Kinda Nights” ft.

]]>The “Make You Mine” visual was co-directed by Beer and Aerin Moreno, and it features countless references to Jennifer’s Body. Beer looks exactly like Megan Fox’s character and plays a killer cheerleader who joins forces with her BFF to murder a guy who has a crush on her.
Beer described this music video as a dream come true, and thanked everyone who made it possible on social media. She’s been a fan of Jennifer’s Body for quite some time and even previously dressed as the main character for Halloween.
“Make You Mine” was released back in February, and the singer revealed it’s her favorite song she’s ever made to date.
“It’s just so fun, such a feel-good song. It’s se-y, it’s infectious. I haven’t played it for anyone that hasn’t just like [started] dancing and felt immediately hotter after listening to it, and that’s always how I want to make people feel,” she told Billboard in February.

]]>The post Mitski Drops Atmospheric Black & White Music Video for “Star” appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>“Star” was released as a double-sided single alongside “Heaven” back in August last year, and its music video is finally here. The atmospheric visual sees Mitski paddling a boat across a foggy lake in the middle of the night.
This music video reunited Mitski with her frequent collaborator Maegan Houang, who wanted this visual to offer a contrast to their previous narrative/concept-driven videos.
“I wanted this video to encapsulate the impressionistic circularity we all experience. Our lives oscillate between light and dark repeating itself in an endless cycle where nothing is permanent. The best moments are fleeting, but so are the bad,” said Houang in a statement.
“Star” was released as one of the songs from Mitski’s seventh studio album The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, which came out last September. It also produced singles “Bug Like an Angel” and “My Love Mine All Mine”, and she’s promoting with a tour across Europe this spring.

It debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, becoming the week’s highest-charting new song, in addition to being Carpenter’s first single to enter the top ten.

“I think for me, there was something really exciting about the fact that there was so much personality throughout the entire song because those are the ones that are really, really fun to sing live with a crowd,” Carpenter told Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe.

]]>Twenty One Pilots announced the release of Clancy in late February, and it was initially supposed to hit the shelves on May 17. They also dropped the music video for the lead single “Overcompensate” and shared a 13-song tracklist, revealing they’re planning to film a music video for every single one.
This creative undertaking has proven to be quite challenging, and Tyler Joseph announced they’re delaying the release of Clancy to give themselves enough time to finish all the videos.
“When I first told Josh and Mark and everyone on our team that I wanted to do a music video for every song on the album ‘Clancy’ that’s coming out, I told them it’s because I love these songs and I believe in them enough to pretend to sing in front of a camera for each one,” said Joseph in a video he shared on the social media platform X.
The release of Clancy is now set for May 24, and its third single “Backslide” is hitting the shelves tomorrow.
