U.S. District Court judge William H. Pauley III determined that the usage of the clip was covered under fair use, reports Pitchfork. The line for Smith's song goes, 'Jazz is the only real music that's gonna last. All that other bull�- is here today and gone tomorrow. But jazz was, is and always will be."
The Drake version cut down the words to include, 'Only real music's gonna last. All that other bull�- is here today and gone tomorrow." Judge Pauley explained that Smith's phrase 'is an unequivocal statement on the primacy of jazz over all other forms of popular music," while Drake's edit turns it into 'a statement that 'real music,' with no qualifiers, is 'the only thing that's gonna last.'"
The official ruling: "The full extent of the commentary is, in this Court's view, that many musicians make records in similar ways (e.g. with the help of A&R experts or the stimulating effects of champagne), but that only 'real" music--regardless of creative process or genre--will stand the test of time. Accordingly, this factor favors a finding of fair use." Read more and listen to both songs

"People of my age have let themselves go, they're fat, balding idiots with fading tattoos. They sit in their garage and write s� like 'Sign of the Times' for Harry Styles. Which, quite frankly, my cat could have written in about 10 minutes!" Noel said.
"I don't mind the song, my wife was falling over herself, 'Have you heard Harry Styles' new song? It's like Prince', I was like, 'Without even hearing it, I can assure you it's not like Prince!'" Read more

As shown in a new online video, the band partnered with ride-sharing app Lyft to surprise unsuspecting passengers with silly banter, Hawaiian shirts and pop star navel-gazing.
Joe tries to hold it together while his bandmates diss the Jonas Brothers, while an eagle-eyed passenger tells him he looks like Joe Jonas.

Songwriter/producer Michael James Ryan Busbee (better known as just busbee) co-wrote the tune with Ryan Hurd and Hillary Lindsey ('Blue Ain't Your Color," 'Dirty Laundry" ).
It was inspired by a '90s Night party at Nashville's Basement East, where Brothers Osborne, Lucie Silvas, Cassadee Pope and Hurd's singer-songwriter girlfriend, Morris, sang a set of 20-year-old pop covers.
"As one of my friends so eloquently put it, she said, 'I feel like I sit with Ryan and write love songs about Maren, and I feel like I sit with Maren and write love songs about Ryan.' So we're writing about Maren, of course, because that's his love interest," he continued. Read more

Staples, who guests on the new Gorillaz album Humanz and will tour with the group, added that he constantly strives to reinvent himself.

In one of her career's most vulnerable performances, the video features the country singer playing guitar and singing on the bathroom floor with just a single camera angle.
The black-and-white video offers a delicate, less-polished production, which evokes a somber, meaningful tone. This "unplugged" version allows fans to focus on Lambert's heartbreaking lyrics:
"Hey there, Mr. Tin Man / You don't know how lucky you are / I've been on the road that you're on / It didn't get me very far / You ain't missing nothin' / 'Cause love is so d� hard / Take it from me darlin' / You don't want a heart" Watch the video

Kristen wrote a lengthy Facebook note recalling the encounter and thanking those who made it possible. "I walked in first and saw her in the corner. Her face at first was horrified. Then, sobbing, she RUNS about 3 feet and slams into BS giving him a huuuuuge hug. And he melts! He held her, hugged her tight and kissed her head. He bent down and kept on hugging saying, 'Sweetie! I didn't mean to make you cry!'"
"Meanwhile, everyone else in the room, including & especially me, is teary and watching the two of them. Finally, he makes her laugh & we start talking about Cure JM, her love of him, The Voice, his songs, etc. He signs more stuff for her and says he will never forget her hugs and face." Read more

Despite these rocky times, it has been more than a decade since their last separation and the two couldn't be more happy with their lives and raising their children. "I honestly can't believe how responsible I am," she remarked. "All of a sudden I'm a soccer mom and doing the damn thing. No one would have guessed this for me. Honestly, I didn't realize that you could enjoy it so much." Read more

The film will feature music prominently. "There's a LOT of music in it," Wright told Nerdist. "Ansel [Elgort]'s character is playing music the entire time. So it's taking things that are in Scorsese or Tarantino or Soderbergh films-and in those films you have the jukebox kind of soundtrack-and the idea with this is that the lead character is actually playing those songs. So the songs are always sourced. They're either in his ears or playing in a diner or playing on a stereo, so they're always within the scenes."
The soundtrack features an eclectic mix of artists including Beck, Queen, The Beach Boys, Kid Koala and Barry White, just to name a few. Baby Driver arrives in theaters on June 28. Check out the trailer

Predators player PK Subban went rogue during a recent press conference, where he grabbed a mic and went up to Fisher, asking him, "Mike, how does it feel to be the best looking guy on the Nashville Predators and probably in the league?"
