The ladies are stepping out on International Women’s Day!

Cardi B took her son out for an exciting mother-son date over the weekend! The rapper took to Instagram to share some shots from her night out with her 1-year-old, Wave, during which the duo attended the Saturday show of SZA's tour at New York's Madison Square Garden.«Lit nights wit sza and Wavey,» Cardi captioned the slide of photos featuring her and Wave. The mom of two sports an orange-and-red printed knit minidress, while Wave looks adorably dapper in a Canadian tuxedo, a blue-and-orange beanie and orange sneakers to match his mom.The night was made even more special when the rapper joined SZA onstage to perform an extended duet of their 2018 collaboration, «I Do,» as well as her hit single with GloRilla, «Tomorrow 2.» Cardi performed mere moments after indie queen Phoebe Bridgers joined SZA for the first live rendition of their collaboration, «Ghost in the Machine.»«U ARE SO DAMN FINE HELPPPP!!! I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR TAKING TIME TO SHOW LOVE!!! [You're] so amazing and gorgeous!!!» SZA wrote in response to Cardi's Instagram.A post shared by Cardi B (@iamcardib)«Sza show was amazing!!!!» Cardi wrote of the show on Twitter.

Suki Waterhouse has released a new song, ‘To Love’ – check it out below.The track is her first release since the ‘Milk Teeth’ EP which came out in November and sees the artist look at romance with a rosier outlook than perhaps she is known for.“‘To Love’ is a song that I wrote really recently that I was going to wait to put out on my second album,” Waterhouse shared in a statement [via Rolling Stone]. “But I felt like it is a very distinct portrait of my heart right now that I wanted to share.

SZA headlined New York’s Madison Square Garden on Saturday night (March 4) and was joined onstage by Phoebe Bridgers and Cardi B.SZA is mid-way through her North American arena tour in support of her new album ‘SOS’ and was joined by a couple of special guests at the first of her New York dates.Early in the set, SZA was joined onstage by Phoebe Bridgers to perform ‘Ghost In The Machine’ live for the first time. For the next song, SZA then brought out Cardi B for the live debut of their collab ‘I Do’ before Cardi performed part of her Glorilla team-up ‘Tomorrow 2’.Taking to social media, SZA called Bridgers “a king amongst ants” and said Cardi B was a “superstar.”“I can’t believe she came through for me.

SZA made a huge splash with her hits-filled, nautically themed “SOS” tour concert at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Saturday would be a conceptually on-message but drastically understated statement: She performed 32 songs on a wildly elaborate seaside-themed stage that included a giant fake fishing boat, a dinghy that soared above the crowd and a lighthouse, brought out two fellow queens — rapper Cardi B and indie-rock titan Phoebe Bridgers, within 10 minutes of each other, no less — and played a crowd-pleasing, nearly two-hour-long set that had the audience out of their seats and singing along for virtually the entire show. The concert had a loose shipwreck storyline (“SOS,” get it?) — beginning with her sitting on a diving board like she is on the cover of “SOS,” progressing to a dockside, the boat, the dinghy, an aquarium and concluding back on the diving board — that was accompanied by scenes of a beautiful ocean, a star-filled sky and Pixar-like underwater imagery on the giant video screens on the stage. The show was so visually dazzling that it concluded with a giant cinematic “The End” on the screens and — in a classy, generous move that every major concert should employ from now on — actual closing credits, from the bandmembers to the dancers and choreographers to the technicians and truck drivers.

Daisy Jones & The Six aims to capture the 1970s through a documentary about a fictional rock band.Based on the book by Taylor Jenkins Reid, the music series follows the “precipitous rise and fall of a renowned rock band” led by charismatic singers Daisy Jones (Riley Keough) and Billy Dunne (Sam Claflin).The miniseries, presented as a documentary, sees the fictional band “reveal the truth” on why they decided to call it quits at the height of their fame.Daisy Jones & The Six features 24 original songs written for the series and recorded by the cast. The band’s debut album ‘Aurora’ is set to be released alongside the Amazon series on March 3, which features co-writing credits from Marcus Mumford, Phoebe Bridgers and Jackson Browne.The theme song for the show is ‘Dancing Barefoot’ by Patti Smith Group.

may tell the story of a fictional band, but they're rubbing shoulders with some very real musical influences. The cast of Amazon's upcoming adaptation of the ultra-popular novel told ET's Nischelle Turner that Bob Dylan paid a visit to their recording studio. «It was insane,» Suki Waterhouse, who plays band member Karen, said of the experience. «He had a tour bus outside of Sound City.»Sound City is the iconic Los Angeles recording studio where the cast recorded the album on which the book focuses. Blake Mills, producer of the show's soundtrack, has also previously worked with Dylan. Author Taylor Jenkins Reid wrote many of 's lyrics for the book, but the show will now bring the fictional music to life. Camila Morrone, who plays Camila, wife of band leader Billy, added that the cast tried to stay focused on their own work despite being utterly starstruck. «When Bob Dylan's making music you just let him do his thing,» she said with a chuckle.«We tried to stay out of his way,» Waterhouse agreed.Though the Bob Dylan sighting may have been more a moment in passing, the cast certainly had their fair share of epic artistic run-ins while in production. Mills recruited a group of music legends to adapt Reid's and the finished project boasts co-writing credits from Marcus Mumford, Phoebe Bridgers and Jackson Browne.Tony Berg, a frequent collaborator of Bridgers, also provided additional support and the album features instrumental work from David Bowie, Elton John, Pearl Jam, Jeff Beck, Rilo Kiley, The Who, Nine Inch Nails and The Wallflowers. Riley Keough, granddaughter of Elvis Presley, plays Daisy Jones.

Boygenius have released a brand new song, ‘Not Strong Enough’.The track premiered as Radio 1’s Hottest Record and is the fourth single after ‘$20’, ‘Emily I’m Sorry’ and ‘True Blue’ to be taken from the group’s upcoming debut album, ‘the record’.Lyrically, ‘Not Strong Enough’ deals with the paradox of experiencing self-hatred and masking it with a God complex. The accompanying music video was self-shot by the band – made up of Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker – and edited by Bridgers’ brother Jackson.

Normal People and Aftersun star Paul Mescal says people have been pronouncing his surname wrong since he became famous.The Irish actor, who was recently nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of a single dad in 2022 breakout film Aftersun, was speaking to The Hollywood Reporter when he discussed a common mispronunciation of his surname.“People get confused with how to pronounce my name because of the drink Mezcal,” he said, revealing that he pronounces it with a softer ‘s’ and ‘a’.“Everybody does it,” he added. “I pronounce it ‘Mescal’ and I wonder if I launched a tequila line I would have to, I would call it ‘Mescal’s Mezcal’.“I’m on the fence, I’m on the fence about that one,” he added.In a four-star review of Aftersun, NME wrote: “Liable to increase the cult around Mescal, following his BAFTA-winning turn in Normal People, Aftersun may be small in scale, but it leaves a distinct and lasting impression.
