The post Kanye West’s “Donda” is Finally Here appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>The album, named after the musician’s late mother, is West’s 10th studio album, following the evangelical Jesus Is King, which was released in 2019.
According to Kim Kardashian, Donda‘s released version is dramatically different following three listening events as well as at a “performance art” wedding. Originally scheduled for release on July 22, the album now features 27 tracks and contributions from Jay-Z, The Weeknd, Young Thug, Jay Electronica, The Lox, Travis Scott, and others.
But that’s now all.
Following the release of Donda on Spotify, West took to social media, claiming his Universal Music record label released the album without his approval. “Universal put my album out without my approval and they blocked “Jail 2” from being on the album,” he wrote. According to Variety, while reps for Universal had no official comment on the allegation, sources at the company called it “preposterous.”
What does the future hold for this official released version of West’s newest album? We don’t know, but if 2016’s Life of Pablo is any indication, fans should expect remixes and re-records for weeks to come.
Here the album below:

]]>The post A One Direction Reunion Is Officially Happening appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Sunday was a very good day for One Direction fans after Payne took to social media revealing very exciting news. The former band member went on Instagram Live to chat with Swedish DJ Alesso.
Fans have been speculating for a while that a reunion might be happening as the band’s 10th anniversary is only months away, so the Instagram Live was the perfect moment for them to ask about it.
“Oh my god dude… there’s so many One Direction questions,” Alesso told Liam during live session. “But I feel like I don’t want to put you on the spot because I know you can’t say too much.”
He added: “most of us are in London, we’ve been trying to arrange the first group FaceTime with the boys at the moment. I can’t say too much. Louis told me off for revealing a bit of our plans the other day, so you’re going to have the group chat telling me off.”
Reunion rumors were first sparked when Payne told The Sun, “We’ve got a 10-year anniversary coming up so we’ve all been speaking together a lot over the last few weeks which has been really nice. You hear a lot of people’s voices and seeing old content and different things that we haven’t seen for a long time or never seen before, it’s very interesting.”

]]>After a 12 year musical hiatus, Lindsay Lohan the actress-turned-singer-songwriter-turned-businesswoman is back with new music.
Lohan took to her social media sharing a 30-second teaser captioned with a very simple “I’m back!”
This isn’t the first time, however, that Lohan teased she has new music en route, but if the past is any indication, that doesn’t always mean that it’ll actually happen.
This announcement follows Lohan’s under-the-radar comment about a third studio album to be released at the end of last month, which never happened as well as a similar teaser of a new single in August 2019 titled “Xanax.” That snippet of the music mysteriously disappeared and the song was never officially released.
Lohan dropped her debut album, Speak, in 2004. It peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200.
