New collection of Slash signature guitars available now from Epiphone

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

A new collection of Slash signature Epiphone guitars was released Tuesday, featuring multiple acoustic and electric models, as part of a partnership between Epiphone and the Gibson company.

The Epiphone Slash Collection features guitars inspired by Gibson models that the Guns N’ Roses legend has played throughout his career. The electric models are the Epiphone Slash Les Paul Standard finished in Appetite Burst, November Burst, Anaconda Burst and Vermillion Burst, and the Slash “Victoria” Les Paul Standard Goldtop, which is gold. The collection’s acoustic model is called the Epiphone Slash J-45, which is available in Vermillion Burst and November Burst finish.

All of the guitars in Epiphone Slash Collection feature Slash’s “Skully” signature drawing on the back of the headstock, the guitarist’s signature on the truss rod cover, and a hardshell case that also includes the “Skully” logo.

Speaking about his signature collection in a new Epiphone promo video, Slash notes, “It’s a huge honor to be able to have a guitar that’s got your name on it…representing you…These are really well put together, all the best materials, all the best components. Everything I could want in an electric guitar is all in this. And so for…a reasonable amount of money, you can get a really great guitar that will last your whole career.”

All of the new Slash Epiphone models are available at a list price of $899. For more information about the instruments, visit Epiphone.com.

The Epiphone models were inspired by the pricier guitars released last year as part of the Gibson Slash Collection.

Check out new music videos from Soulja Boy, French Montana, Ryan Trey and Shenseea

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

During his Verzuz battle with Bow Wow last month, Soulja Boy brought out French Montana to perform the “She Make It Clap” remix. Now, the two rappers have linked up to shoot a matching visual at a lavish estate.

Soulja and French can be seen kicking it with a gang of beautiful women while rapping about their fame and fortune. Soulja’s verse from the original “She Make It Clap” remains intact, while French’s verse references his ex, Khloe Kardashian, and Beyoncé’s protege, singer Chloe Bailey.

“Make it clap like Chloe / Not my ex Khloe, that Chloe with Beyoncé / Met her at Liv on Sunday / Had her trending by Monday,” French raps.

Meanwhile, rising hip-hop/R&B singer Ryan Trey is back with a music video for his new single, “It’s About a Girl.” The dark visual opens with Ryan arriving at a house party, where he meets a beautiful girl. As the night continues, Ryan begins hallucinating and wakes up on the front lawn. It becomes clear that he never made it to the party due to crashing his car on the way there. He then realizes the girl from the party is a paramedic assisting him.

And last but not least, Jamaican dancehall singer Shenseea is back with her new single, “Run Run.” In the accompanying visual, Shenseea and her girls chase down a man who played with her heart and lock him in a cage. Shenseea’s spicy vocals helped her land collaborations with instrumentalist Masego and Tyga, to name a few.

Khalid announces new album ‘Everything Is Changing,’ officially releases “New Normal”

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

After debuting his single “New Normal” during Richard Branson‘s Virgin Galactic Spaceflight earlier this month — and performing it live for Branson and crew after they returned to Earth — Khalid has officially released the song, as well as a music video.

In addition, Khalid has announced his third album: It’s called Everything Is Changing, which will be released this fall. It’s now available for pre-order.

”’New Normal’ was inspired by how I was feeling during the pandemic and the emotional toll that quarantine took on me and my friends,” Khalid explains. “Everything Is Changing, as an album, really takes that a step further with all of the songs centering around trying to find a purpose and a sense of self in a world where everything is digitally connected but emotionally disconnected.”

“As we all come out of quarantine and venture more into the world and try to reconnect with people we haven’t seen in over a year, I hope the messages explored within the album open up conversations and allow people to access their feelings in a new way,” he adds.

Everything Is Changing is the follow-up to Khalid’s 2019 album Free Spirit, which featured the hits “Better” and “Talk.” His current single “Working,” is a collaboration with Tate McRae.

What’s Luke Bryan planning to give Blake Shelton + Gwen Stefani as a wedding gift? “Embarrassing items”

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

Luke Bryan wasn’t in attendance when his fellow country superstar Blake Shelton got married to Gwen Stefani in an intimate Oklahoma ceremony earlier this month.

“I did not know it was happening. I found out with the rest of the world,” Luke tells People.

According to the details that have since emerged about Blake and Gwen’s wedding, that’s not a huge surprise: The A-List couple were aiming for a small, family-focused ceremony with few celebrities in attendance. However, they did pay homage to the way they met — on the set of The Voice — by enlisting The Voice host Carson Daly to officiate.

But just because he didn’t attend the wedding doesn’t mean Luke won’t be getting the happy couple a gift. The country superstar says his present for Blake and Gwen is inspired by his prankster side.

“I have started my mental wedding gift soirée. I am going to get a big box and there will be embarrassing items in there,” Luke hints. “They’ll be funny, sarcastic items. So Blake and Gwen can expect my wedding gift with the Luke Bryan touch on it.”

Luke can take a joke gift as easily as he dishes one out. Last weekend, he celebrated his 45th birthday on tour, and his famously prank-happy wife, Caroline, couldn’t resist surprising the singer onstage. Luke opened up a selection of gag gifts of his own — including a six-pack of his own Two Lane beer, a lamp and Jockey underwear — in front of his family, friends and an arena packed with fans.

Watch Olivia Rodrigo as a dancing fork in new ‘HSMTMTS’ clip

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

Olivia Rodrigo has worn many hats in 2021: Chart-topping artist, SNL musical guest and high school graduate. But now you can see her as you’ve never seen her before: dressed as cutlery.

More specifically, Olivia plays a dancing fork in a new clip of this Friday’s episode of her Disney Channel show High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, available now on YouTube. In the show, the East High Wildcats are staging Disney’s Beauty & the Beast as their spring musical, and Olivia’s character, Nini, portrays one of the dancing knives and forks who surround Belle, as Lumière the talking candelabra welcomes her to the castle.

Billboard reports that the show’s season two soundtrack, which comes out July 30, will feature Olivia and co-star Joshua Bassett‘s duet, “Even When”/”The Best Part,” as well as Olivia’s solo rendition of “The Best Part,” and a few other performances from the “Drivers License” star, including “Granted” and “The Rose Song.”

Marla Gibbs “doing great” after appearing to faint during Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

Legendary actress and comedian Marla Gibbs, whose career has spanned five decades, is doing much better after she appeared to faint while accepting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday.

During the event, which was also livestreamed, the 90-year-old actress, who starred in classic sitcoms The Jeffersons and 227, paused mid-sentence, drawing concerns from onlookers who thought she might fall during the ceremony. Gibbs was helped to a chair by her son, who later moved her inside due to concerns about heat exhaustion.

A rep told Entertainment Weekly that Gibbs was overheated but is “doing great” and had a “great time at the after-party.”

“I never thought it would happen, but here it is,” Gibbs said after the ceremony resumed, 30 minutes later. “I just got overwhelmed for a minute. I haven’t been excited until this moment!”

The Emmy-nominated performer also thanked fellow actress Tisha Campbell and The Jeffersonsproducer Norman Lear, who both gave speeches before Gibbs took the stage.

Vory speaks about the “No Child Left Behind” collaboration with Kanye West

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

Fans on social media are complimenting singer-songwriter Vory for his performance on Kanye West’s new song, “No Child Left Behind,” from is forthcoming album, DONDA.

The Grammy-winning artist sang vocals on the song used in the latest Beats by Dre commercial, starring runner Sha’Carri Richardson, who was suspended from the U.S. Olympic team after testing positive for THC earlier this month.

“Our voices must be heard. Sha’Carri, we standing with you,” Vory wrote on Instagram, sharing a clip of the video. “Wait til y’all hear what we got on the album… DONDA OTW.”

Fans in the comments shared fire and diamond emojis – a nod to Vory’s label Dream Chasers Records.

“Legendary. I’m proud of you, bro! Glad I got to witness history being made,” wrote social media personality Justin Laboy, who listened to Ye’s album earlier this week. “You just getting started, king. You belong here! BLESS UP.” Other fans called 24-year-old Vory a “legend” in the making.

Vory is among the featured guests on Kanye’s tenth album, DONDA, which drops this Friday. Before releasing his self-titled EP in December, the Kentucky-bred artist appeared on Meek Mill’s EP, Quarantine Pack. Vory also vocally contributed to Bryson Tiller’s Trapsoul, Drake’s Scorpion, and The Carters’ Grammy-winning album, Everything Is Love, which won Best Urban Contemporary Album.

Jason Aldean’s got a new song coming out Friday, and it’s a mystery collaboration

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

Jason Aldean fans are placing bets on which fellow star he might have enlisted to join him for his next duet, out Friday.

The singer started teasing a new release on social media this week, sharing that the song’s title is “If I Didn’t Love You.” He also noted that it’s a collaboration, but declined to mention the other person who’s featured on the song.

“Who do y’all think is singing on this one with me?” Jason wrote in the caption of his post, asking fans to drop their guesses in the comments section. While plenty of fans had an idea or two about who it might be, the singer’s not sharing any more clues — at least, for now.

Jason’s previously demonstrated his knack for putting out hit duets: “Don’t You Wanna Stay,” a collaboration with Kelly Clarkson, was a fan-favorite smash back in 2010.

“If I Didn’t Love You” is coming out at the end of a big week for Jason, who just celebrated his 25th number-one country radio hit with “Blame It On You.” He’s also gearing up for a return to the road — his 2021 Back in the Saddle Tour kicks off in August, with opening acts Hardy and Lainey Wilson.

Check out Adam Levine & his wife’s new pink tequila

July 21, 2021 by WDNY Radio

A few years ago, Adam Levine teamed with rock star Sammy Hagar to create Santo Mezquila, a premium booze that mixes tequila and mezcal. Now get ready for Adam and his wife’s new pink tequila.

Adam and wife Behati Prinsloo are partners in CALIROSA, a tequila company, and have invested in its Mexico distillery “to help introduce the brand to the world,” according to a press release.

CALIROSA’s rolling out in 14 states to start with, with two products: Rosa Blanco and Anejo [ah-NAY-ho]. The Rosa Blanco is aged in California red wine barrels for 30 days, which makes it pink and gives it a hint of cherry and orange peel flavors. The Anejo is aged in the barrels for 18 months, which turns it rose gold in color, with notes of chocolate, toffee and vanilla.

Adam and Behati can both be seen on CALIROSA’s Instagram feed but unless you know it’s them, it’s not entirely obvious that you’re looking at the celebrity couple.
