Comedian, actor, and cultural anthropologist Druski decided to dive into his music bag today, releasing “No More Social Media” with South London rapper Kairo Keyz. Druski and Kairo trade menacing bars over a foreboding beat crafted by the producer Muddy. While Druski is known for jokes, he sounds like he’s taking his craft dead seriously on “No More Social Media,” rhyming “I speak truth, I don’t need no Bluetooth speaker. We play outside, we got the inside, pigs dem picking up ruggers.”

Kairo follows up by shouting out Ugliest Rapper Alive, the winner of the first season of Druski’s Coulda Been House. “I can’t be the ugliest rapper alive, I just put 10 (thousand) on my dental,” he rhymes. The track follows Druski’s debut song “Standin On Bihness,” featuring Snoop Dogg and DJ Drama, and shows off another layer of his talent. Even when he’s doing skits, his genius isn’t just in the punchline, but in the true-to-life subtleties that demonstrate the attentiveness of his satirical eye. He’s translated that knack to music, with an impressively cogent recitation of a popular cadence in the U.K. rap community. 

Druski’s new song arrives after he teased the London edition of his Coulda Been auditions on Instagram. Druski also recently announced his first-ever comedy and music festival called Coulda Fest, set to take place on Sept. 7 at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. The event will feature live comedy sketches and music performances from 21 Savage, Kai Cenat, Soulja Boy, Waka Flocka Flame, and more.

The music video for “No More Social Media” premieres on July 31st at 4 p.m.

Sabrina Carpenter Is Viscously Clever and Done With Love Triangles on ‘Short N’ Sweet’: 5 Takeaways

After Sabrina Carpenter’s summer takeover with “Espresso” and “Please Please Please,” the anticipation for Short n’ Sweet was at an all-time high. On her sixth album, the pop singer keeps the surprises coming as she delivers a masterclass in clever songwriting and hops between R&B and folk-pop with ease. Carpenter writes about the frustration of modern-day romance, all the while cementing herself as a pop classic. Here’s everything we gathered from the new project.

Please Please Please Don’t Underestimate Her Humor

Carpenter gave us a glimpse of her humor on singles “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” — she’s working late because she’s a singer; ceiling fans are a pretty great invention! But no one could have guessed how downright hilarious she is on Short n’ Sweet, delivering sugary quips like “The Lord forgot my gay awakenin’” (“Slim Pickins”) and “How’s the weather in your mother’s basement?” (“Needless to Say”). She’s also adorably nerdy, fretting about grammar (“This boy doesn’t even know/The difference between ‘there,’ ‘their’ and ‘they are!’”) and getting Shakespearian (“Where art thou? Why not uponeth me?”). On “Juno,” she even takes a subject as serious as pregnancy and twists it into a charming pop culture reference for the ages: “If you love me right, then who knows?/I might let you make me Juno.” It’s official: Do not underestimate Ms. Carpenter’s pen. — A.M.

RFK Jr. Suspends Campaign, Endorses Trump

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suspended his 2024 presidential campaign, and according to a court filing in Pennsylvania on Friday will throw his weight behind former President Donald Trump.

Multiple news outlets reported on Wednesday that independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. was planning to drop out of the race and endorse Trump. He clarified at an event in Arizona on Friday that he is not terminating his campaign, only suspending it, and that his name will remain on the ballot in non-battleground states. He said that if enough people still vote for him and Trump and Kamala Harris tie in the Electoral College, he could still wind up in the White House.

Hear Blink-182 Have Fun While Complaining They Have ‘No Fun’ on New Songs

Ahead of the release of One More Time … Part-2, Blink-182 have released two new charging pop-punk songs, “All in My Head” and “No Fun.” The updated album will come out Sept. 6.

On “All in My Head,” Mark Hoppus sings about how hard touring life is staying in “lonely hotel rooms, cum stains on the couch.” But for as gross and sad as that reads, the song itself is pretty fun. Hoppus and Tom DeLonge trade vocals on the chorus: “I’m moving on, I’m better now, I sleep alone,” Hoppus sings, while DeLonge counters about how he’s not giving up despite feeling like he’s not good enough and how it hurts getting up. All that leads to an existential crisis, “I’m freaking out, is it all in my head?”
