Speaking of their new material at the time, mainman Jon Bon Jovi said: "I have a lot to write about. Believe me, the new record is good. It's pointed - it's something we're going to be very proud of when we put it out." Read more here.
Meek Mill and Drake have been feuding since June 2015 when Mill accused Drake of hiring ghostwriters to write his raps. The accusation surfaced after Drake guest starred on Mill's single "R.I.C.O." from his album Dreams Worth More Than Money.
After the first salvo, the Canadian rapper responded with two tracks in July 2015, "Charged Up" and "Back to Back." In "Charged Up (Ghost Writer)," Drake claimed he stayed silent about the beef to maintain his dignity and in "Back to Back" he claimed victory, comparing the feud to his baseball team Toronto Blue Jays' World Series win over his rival's team Philadelphia Phillies.

The film will feature photographs from Pisano's personal collection and is the first time she's agreed to cooperate on a movie about the Blues Brothers icon.
Cutler tells Rolling Stone: "Belushi was one of my very first heroes. At a time when film, television and music were undergoing tectonic shifts within American culture, he was at the centre of it all.
"At that moment, he had the number one show on television, the number one film at the box office and the number one record on the charts. We plan to explore his unique genius and how his creative influence is still making an impact to this moment." Read more here.
"He loved the song and said some cool things about it," he told us at the time. "Definitely that second verse, it's like their song, 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.' Even though you might believe [in God], there's things that come along that test your faith."
On Wednesday night, before Bentley's "Last Call Ball" at New York's Highline Ballroom--where he played songs from his upcoming album, Black, along with some of the writers who contributed to the album--he told Radio.com that he's been in touch with the U2 frontman again.
"I guess I have a tradition now of sending a song or two to Bono for every record and getting a response," he said. "I got a text back from him today, actually. I sent him a song called 'Freedom.' The third verse of the song was kind of inspired by something he said to me once. He said that when people in other countries see the American flag, they don't just see a geographical location, they see an idea of freedom. And they want a little piece of that idea."
"So I sent him the song, and he sent me a pretty thoughtful email back; he got back to me today. He couldn't be more supportive, it was pretty cool to get that email today." Read more here.
Simon said the album is "about getting you to actually hear something in a new way ' about making music that sounds old and new at the same time - music with a sense of mystery." Stranger to Stranger is currently available for streaming on NPR's First Listen.

The song was originally on Prince's classic 1980 album, Dirty Mind, and Lauper covered it on her 1983 debut She's So Unusual. Lauper brought her energy to the stage, dancing around to the synth-laden classic.

While Rhett still Instagrams and tweets with the best of them - usually about his wife and/or his dogs - with the help of Eldridge, he has joined the Snapchat community to give fans an insider view of his day-to-day activities without overloading his other social accounts.
Conveniently for Rhett, the Snapchat newbie was on tour with Eldredge and found out his friend was an expert at using the app. A lesson or two later and Rhett was using all the right filters and geotags.
'It is so random. I don't think I can plan anything that we have done on Snapchat," Rhett told Sounds Like Nashville. 'I never even wanted to use Snapchat until I was on the road with Brett Eldredge and noticed that he literally did it all day long, and when he got in bed he would''Hey, I'm goin' to bed.'. But, it's such a fun way to just''cause you can only post so many Instagrams a day, but you can literally Snap a thousand things a day and it only lasts for the day and it's like seven seconds long. So, I've had a blast gettin' to learn how to use it." Read more here.
