ZAYN – ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS

Multi Platinum-selling recording artist, songwriter, producer, and philanthropist ZAYN has released a stunning live performance video to debut “Alienated,” the second single from his forthcoming album, ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS, due May 17, 2024 via Mercury Records.

Watch the live performance video of “Alienated” HERE and listen to the song HERE.

The performance marks the first time ZAYN has performed live since 2016 and showcases his soaring falsetto within the intimate song. About the song, ZAYN commented, “”Alienated” was the first song I wrote for the album, so it kind of set the tone for the whole project- it shaped the way I wanted to approach the sound of my own voice, the styling of the guitars and the overall sonic direction.”

For the past six years, ZAYN has been writing and crafting ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS at his home studio in rural PA. This album marks his most personal release to date, reflecting where he is in life, while exploring the complexities of healing, stillness, and growth. It also sees the genre-bending artist explore a new sound, leaning into his soulful vocals, live instrumentation, and poetic lyricism as a songwriter.

Reflecting upon ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS, ZAYN says “This is my favorite album that I’ve made to date, mainly because it comes from a place of sheer honesty and vulnerability. I wanted each song to feel as if it was just me sitting beside you telling you how I feel, singing directly to you. It’s raw and stripped back and the type of music I always hoped to make.”

He continues, “Working with Dave Cobb has been an amazing experience. The way he’s elevated the music is second to none, and he has done an incredible job helping me create this record. I hope we can take listeners on some whimsical, magical journey, and that they enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it.”

“I think just being where I was at that time, staying away from things and living with my own thoughts inspired me to want to write something from that place. I’ve got to put this out as a whole body of work, it’s something for myself, not even just for the world,” says ZAYN.

ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS was co-produced by ZAYN with 9x GRAMMY Award winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, A Star Is Born, Brandi Carlile). Cobb came on board after hearing the songs ZAYN had crafted, marveled by how raw and honest it was. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Cobb said “What got me about Zayn was his voice, you can hear love, loss, pain, triumph and humanity in it. Zayn has really created his own universe on this record, he really has no fear and is speaking straight from his soul.”

Ahead of the release, ZAYN sent fans into a frenzy with a surprise appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and an interview on Hot Ones. He also covered the Spring edition of L’Officiel Hommes.

To coincide with the single release today, ZAYN is launching two new special vinyl editions, a limited-edition color vinyl for Target and a limited-edition color vinyl for Urban Outfitters; as well as a cassette and two exclusive CDs – one for Walmart and another for independent retailers.

ROOM UNDER THE STAIRS is available for preorder HERE.

MAGGIE ROGERS – DON’T FORGET ME

GRAMMY® Award-nominated songwriter/producer/performer Maggie Rogers shares her third studio album, Don’t Forget Me, out now via Capitol Records. Download/stream Don’t Forget Me HERE.

“I wanted to make an album that sounded like a Sunday afternoon,” Rogers explains. “Worn in denim. A drive in your favorite car. No make up, but the right amount of lipstick. Something classic. The mohair throw and bottle of Whiskey in Joan Didion’s motel room. An old corvette. Vintage, but not overly Americana. I wanted to make an album to belt at full volume alone in your car, a trusted friend who could ride shotgun and be there when you needed her.”

Rogers co-produced her new album with Ian Fitchuk (Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris) at Electric Lady Studios in New York City, writing eight of its 10 songs with him and penning two alone. Shawn Everett (Brittany Howard, The War on Drugs) mixed. The album was mastered by Emily Lazar (Beck, Coldplay), who has mastered all of Rogers’ albums to date. Watch the official video for the title track HERE.

Praising the album’s “transcendent songwriting,” SPIN said, “with Don’t Forget Me, Rogers sounds fully confident.” Rolling Stone said, “‘For such a heavy emotional lift, the album is an easygoing listen, perfect for a Sunday-afternoon drive.” In this feature, The New Yorker praised Rogers’ Don’t Forget Me as “the loosest and most elemental music she’s made…burly, coltish, tender, fun.”

Don’t Forget Me is the follow-up to 2022’s Surrender, which earned widespread praise, with Rolling Stone hailing Rogers as a “pop music prodigy…an artist who’s in it for the long haul.” She recently celebrated the 5th anniversary of the release of Heard It In A Past Life, her 2019 debut album. Now certified Gold by the RIAA, the album has sold nearly a million copies worldwide and accrued one billion combined global streams.

Macfox X2

Buy

Inspo

The popularity of e-bikes has skyrocketed over the last few years. Due to the rise in petty crime on mass transit in both LA and NYC as well as expensive prices at the pump, millennials who reside in close proximity to their jobs have decided to ditch their cars. As micromobility options have become a way for individuals to express themselves, it’s important to find brands like Macfox that make it easy to customize their models.

The Super73 and Onyx Motorbikes were some of the most impressive e-bikes on the market. Even though they were both well-constructed and attractive, they both had a high price tag ($3,800-6500) and a lengthy waiting list. Then emerged the newcomer, Macfox X1, which cost roughly $1100, was an excellent lightweight choice in comparison to the aforementioned bulky models. Whatever the case, this initial prototype didn’t seem to measure up.

The following year, Macfox carefully listened to their customers and created the X2:

° Full suspension
° Turn signals that are integrated
° Hydraulic brakes
° A secondary battery clamp
° A headlamp with low/high beam
° 750 watt motor (1000 watt output)
° Half-thumb throttle

This metacycle is both nimble and easy to maneuver, with adequate stopping power and enough torque (our top speed on flat pavement was 30-33mph). And for those who like to boast about their bespoke, you can purchase the 20′ fat tires with brown walls and banana seat for that straight-from-the-box look. Moreover, unlike many of its competitors, you get a ton of branded accessories which will have you on the road right away rather than fishing for components.

The unit is relatively easy to assemble and is packaged with tools. We viewed a few tutorial videos on YouTube. This marks the first time we didn’t have to employ someone to assemble. Yes, we saved approximately $145, but we eventually had to visit a technician to reassure the overall build.

In short, the Macfox X2 is the perfect purchase, especially for those who need extra power to overcome challenging inclines in Central Park and a memory foam seat for long rides, providing high levels of comfort on or off the road.

PROS: affordable, well-made Shimano shifters, stylish design, and great battery life.

CONS: thin tires, small handlebars, metal pedals, and grinding noise at top speed.

· The flashy, fun, and fabulous ladies of “The Real Housewives of Dubai” are back in the City of Gold for season two. This year, the women must balance new dynamics in the group, their demanding family lives, and their ever-growing successful businesses. When alliances shift, the ladies question their loyalty to each other as some friendships are left in the desert dust.

New to the group, Taleen Marie is introduced to the ladies through her longtime friend, Caroline Brooks. When she develops a surprising friendship with Caroline Stanbury, her loyalty to Caroline Brooks is called into question.

With her dream home still under construction, Caroline Stanbury and husband Sergio realize the honeymoon is over as they’re forced to live in close quarters with their best friend, Michael. Tensions continue to mount as the couple must decide if they’re ready to have a child.

The Real Housewives of Dubai is produced by Truly Original with Steven Weinstock, Glenda Hersh, Lauren Eskelin, Jamie Jakimo, Leola Westbrook-Lawrence and Tamara Najm Coudurier serving as executive producers. Andy Cohen also executive produces.

Vanessa recently announced she and her husband are expecting their first child. Congratulations are in order!

Elevating Your Style

A Comprehensive Guide to Wearing a Grey Tuxedo

Introduction
The Versatility of Grey
Choosing the Right Shade
Accessories to Complement
Grey Tuxedo Etiquette
Key Takeaways
Conclusion

Introduction

Elevating your style is not just about what you wear but how you wear it. Few men’s formalwear offers the same sophistication and versatility as a grey tuxedo. Whether preparing for a wedding, a gala, or a black-tie event, mastering the art of wearing a grey tuxedo can take your style game to new heights. Let’s explore the nuances of this classic yet contemporary ensemble and discover how to make it your own.

The Versatility of Grey

Compared to its more conventional siblings in black or navy, a gray tuxedo gives a contemporary take on formal wear. Because of its muted color, you may put your style on it without sacrificing its noticeable sophistication and elegance. From dark charcoal to light grey, the range of hues available in a gray tuxedo from Generation Tux in Miami allows you to personalize your look to suit the event and your style completely. Whether attending a wedding, gala, or formal dinner, a grey tuxedo offers unparalleled adaptability and sophistication. Opt for lighter, airier greys for spring or summer events, or choose more profound, subdued charcoals for evening affairs or winter weddings. With the versatility of grey tuxedos, you can confidently make a stylish statement on any occasion, ensuring you look and feel your best.

Choosing the Right Shade

When selecting a grey tuxedo, it’s essential to consider various factors, including the event’s formality, your complexion, and the season. Darker shades such as charcoal or slate grey exude sophistication and lend themselves well to evening events or winter weddings, evoking a sense of timeless elegance. On the other hand, lighter hues like dove grey or silver present a fresh, contemporary aesthetic that aligns seamlessly with the vibrancy of spring or summer. By carefully considering these elements, you can ensure that your choice of grey tuxedo enhances your style and harmonizes with the occasion’s specific context, leaving a lasting impression.

Accessories to Complement

Adding accessories to your grey tuxedo outfit will help it look more put together and let you express your style. Traditional black accessories like a bow tie, cummerbund, and patent leather shoes are excellent choices for a classic and timeless look. They go well with the subtle elegance of the grey tuxedo. These essentials for formal attire guarantee a classy look that will make an impact at any event. However, add a flash of color with patterned socks or a vivid pocket square to add personality and flair to your outfit. These whimsical accents show off your style and self-assurance while giving your ensemble visual appeal. Whether you choose to accessorize conventionally or daringly, the key is to strike a balance that enhances the overall sophistication of your grey tuxedo ensemble while expressing your unique sense of style.

Grey Tuxedo Etiquette

While grey tuxedos offer unparalleled versatility, adhering to specific etiquette guidelines is essential to ensure a polished and refined appearance. Firstly, prioritize a well-tailored fit to maintain a sleek, sophisticated silhouette. Avoiding overly trendy or casual elements is paramount, as they can detract from the tuxedo’s inherent elegance. Attention to lapel width, button stance, and trouser length is crucial for achieving a refined and sophisticated look. By meticulously attending to these etiquette guidelines, you can confidently showcase your style and sophistication in a grey tuxedo ensemble, leaving a lasting impression at any formal event.

Key Takeaways

A grey tuxedo offers versatility and modernity while maintaining a sense of sophistication.
Choose the shade of grey based on the event’s formality, season, and complexion.
Accessorize thoughtfully to complement your grey tuxedo ensemble and add personal flair.
Use proper etiquette guidelines to ensure a polished and refined appearance in your grey tuxedo attire.

Conclusion

Finally, for any formal function, donning a grey tuxedo will undoubtedly enhance your look and make an impact. It is a classic alternative for the modern gentleman who appreciates sophistication and uniqueness because of its adaptability and abundance of styling possibilities. You may create a refined look that properly reflects your style by choosing the right accessories and hue with care and following formal etiquette requirements. Accepting the grace of a grey tuxedo lets you stand out from the crowd with refinement and charm by enabling you to create a bold and fashionable statement.

BUCHAREST BIENNALE 11

International Bucharest Biennial for Contemporary Art will take place September 19 – October 06, 2024, under a new direction.

In a groundbreaking move, BUCHAREST BIENNALE was successfully acquired by a new organisation. This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in the contemporary art landscape.

The board of directors of the newly formed organisation appointed Daniel Roșca, a Romanian cultural manager and artist, as director of the Bucharest Biennale 11. Eugen Rădescu, the former director, will take the position of director-at-large, member of the board of directors of the entire organisation and remain the co-founder of Bucharest Biennale.

The Bucharest Biennale founded 20 years ago, has long been celebrated for its commitment to pushing artistic boundaries and showcasing diverse perspectives. With this acquisition, BB11 aims to foster cross-cultural dialogue, amplify artistic innovation, and elevate the biennial experience to new heights supporting underserved communities of artists including queer community, minorities and emerging artists. BB was the first biennial in history to use an AI curator in 2021.

“I am thrilled to be at the helm of Bucharest Biennale, building upon the significant achievements to date and exploring innovative approaches to uphold the same level of excellence and introduce fresh perspectives in the realm of art.”, said Daniel Roșca, the director of Bucharest Biennale. Daniel Roșca is a cultural manager, artist and climate change activist. His artworks have been exhibited in Bucharest, Kiel, Ulft, Geneva, Copenhagen and Paris, among others. Since 2017, he has been a founding member of the Grund, an organisation promoting emerging Romanian artists, facilitating artistic and philosophical education, and larger exposure for emerging artists.

BUCHAREST BIENNALE 11 will unfold under the theme “Democracy’s Uncharted Territories.” The curatorial approach is anchored in the principle of participatory democracy, accentuating the engagement of citizens in decision-making processes (Smith, 2009). This conceptual framework contests the conventional role of the curator as the singular arbiter of artistic significance, advocating for a more encompassing and cooperative milieu. Additionally, it will serve as a critical commentary on the misuse of democratic rhetoric solely for vested interests by Romanian cultural actors.

In BB11, the designation of a curator will be eschewed. Rather, the entire BB11 team will function as the selection committee and curatorial collective. Participating artists will be chosen through an open call process, adhering to a first-application-first-selected approach. The open call will be disseminated in the forthcoming weeks.

LENNY KRAVITZ – HUMAN

Watch

Hot on the heels of his latest single, Lenny Kravitz has released the soaring new music video for “Human.” Described by Forbes as an “absolutely infectious anthem,” “Human” precedes Kravitz’s forthcoming album Blue Electric Light, out May 24, 2024 via Roxie Records/BMG. Pre-order/Pre-save Blue Electric Light HERE.

The “Human” video, directed by legendary video director Joseph Kahn, projects the single’s bold and boisterous spirit on screen. A visual feast, it intercuts a literally traffic-stopping performance by Kravitz and his band with stunning effects and an ascension of lovers, friends, and neighbors from the streets and into the sky.

Timeless. Explosive. Romantic. Inspiring. How else to characterize Blue Electric Light, Lenny Kravitz’s 12th studio album? Kravitz wrote and recorded the project in his studio in the Bahamas, and his mastery of deep-soul rock ‘n’ roll is once again established here. As a relentless creative force—musician, writer, producer, actor, author, designer—he continues to be a global dynamic presence throughout music, art and culture. Blue Electric Light is an impassioned suite of songs, that broadens this distinction and is the latest contribution of a man whose music—not to mention his singular style—continues to inspire millions the world over. On the album, Kravitz’s talents as a writer, producer and multi-instrumentalist resonate as he wrote and played most of the instruments himself, with longtime guitarist Craig Ross. Ultimately, he crafted 12 tracks that are reflective of his legacy as a genre-breaking trailblazer, yet also firmly entrenched in the energy of the 21st century and beyond.

Recently, Kravitz was immortalized on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, received the “Music Icon Award” at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards and was also nominated as a 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee. Last month, Kravitz teamed up with Ray-Ban to launch a new Reverse collection, merging the brand’s most iconic shapes with Kravitz’s legendary persona in two special SKUs and one limited-edition style. In June, Kravitz will embark on a European tour in support of Blue Electric Light.

Kravitz is the author of Flash, a book that showcases unique rock photography. His recent memoir, Let Love Rule, also landed him on The New York Times’ Best Sellers List.
