Kicking off 2017 with a bang, the three-time multi-platinum and Grammy-nominated artist/producer duo The Chainsmokers (comprised of Alex Pall and Drew Taggart) have revealed their brand new single “Paris” today.
The beachy visual was directed by Rory Kramer, features Instagram model Alexis Ren and was shot on location at Casa Malca in Tulum, Mexico.
“Paris” is the official follow up to their latest smash hit “Closer,” which dominated 2016 as one of the biggest singles of the year. “Paris” marks another offering from the duo that features vocals from Drew himself.
The Chainsmokers first teased the song at their massive sold out show at Los Angeles Convention Center on December 30, their biggest show ever played to date.
Yesterday, The Weeknd posted a picture on Instagram and said that he would be dropping the video for ‘Party Monster’ today. With that said, he surely did not let us down with that announcement.
The video doesn’t disappoint with the colorful, trippy visuals and hard to understand plot– which features vocal assistance from Lana Del Rey, who unfortunately isn’t spotted in the video at all. With her vocals on this song, she links closely to his short film Mania.
Instead, Zoe Aggeliki stars in ‘Party Monster’, directed by BRTHR. This would be The Weeknd and BRTHR’s second project together. BRTHR also directed “In The Night”, which sort of has the same colorful–old time vibe to it. Also with the sort of syntactic looking picture throughout the video, the visuals for ‘Party Monster” pairs well with the song’s slower tendencies while accompanying darker visuals.
The video is filled with women with melting faces, flashing lights, animals jumping out of television sets, tearing apart cake and The Weeknd driving off a cliff. If you want you can be the judge and see which visuals you like the best.

Hip-Hop and fashion icon, ASAP Rocky is posing for Dior Homme once again, this time for its latest ad campaign for SS17.
Who can forget when Rocky made his fashion debut with Dior Homme for it’s FW16 campaign back in the summer of last year? Donning a super scarlet trench coat, I remember that coat only because I wanted to take it off of him and wear it myself, thanks to the amazingly talented photographer Willy Vanderperre.
For, the New York rapper is seen wearing eye-catching embroidered trousers and a tailored jacket with tracksuit-style stripes and intricate details across the shoulders. Rocky is proving he can do more than crowd surf on tour.
In conjunction with the new campaign, Dior Homme launched an Instagram account (@diorhomme), which will certainly offer up plenty of dapper, well-dressed men that we could all use a little bit more of in our feeds.
Rocky is one of four creatives featured in the campaign, the others being singer-songwriter Boy George, model Ernest Klimko, and actor Rami Malek, known for his role in Mr. Robot and who is also set to star as Freddie Mercury in an upcoming Queen biopic. Check out the ad campaign above.

This sneaker caused so much buzz that all the sneakerheads were excited to see what adidas could do with this sneaker in the future.

Accordingly to some of the stores listed below, they are using raffle systems to make it as fair as possible, while others will opt for the standard first-come-first-serve practice.
I know everybody hates when there are rules to buying sneakers, but compared to some places that are re-selling these at $1,250, $180 is an absolute steal.

Coming from a military family background, spending the majority of his time moving from state to state, Khalid is officially making waves following his relocation to Texas. With his latest single “Location“ taking over the radio stations and everyone’s playlists, his warm, soulful sound and youthful sensibility gives him an advantage in 2017.
“I used to record singing videos and post them on the internet but the right moment led me to creating my own song and putting myself out there. I’m glad I did that.”
With “Location” being filmed in his hometown of El Paso, Texas, his latest single will put you in the feels, making you want to drive down the highway to Texas and listen to it in the middle of the desert. His follow-up single “Let’s Go” was even bigger, more upbeat and pop-focused, and a strong indication that this is only the start in his rising career.
“Location is a story of young love. The kind of love that you would travel all over the country to find. It’s just a story of searching for something that we all want in life no matter who we are and that’s a real genuine lover, but it doesn’t come easy.”

Slated as the face of Under Armour’s new tech-enabled pajamas, Tom Brady is bestowing specific rules for a good night’s sleep; one in which includes wearing “Athlete Recovery Sleepwear.”
The smart pajamas are claimed to “rebuild your body” while you sleep by transforming the body’s natural heat and turning it into energy that can actually reduce inflammation, promote relaxation, and increase blood flow.
According to Sports Illustrated, the idea for the pajamas came from Brady himself after he injured his calf in 2014. After an extensive two-and-a-half-year journey, the technologically advanced collection of shirts, joggers, and shorts is now accessible, priced between $160 and $200 per set.

Today FKA Twigs debuted her first project as Creative Director for NikeWomen’s Spring Zonal Strength Tights campaign and gifted everyone with a brand new song called “Trust in Me.”
In a statement on Nike’s website, Twigs described how she wanted to show a different representation within the campaign.
I aimed to showcase individuals like Saskia Horton, who effortlessly bridges the worlds of classical violin and krumping, inspiring others to believe, “I can do that.” Having known her since she was 16, I’ve witnessed her unwavering dedication to training and her remarkable dance diaries, where she delves deep into her artistry. By treating dance with utmost seriousness, she serves as a true inspiration to the young individuals who follow her.
Furthermore, I would like to delve into the song’s significance within the campaign. I had pre-existing music for the campaign film “Trust In Me.” I immediately recognized its perfect fit, as the lyrics urge listeners to “Put your trust in me.” In a sense, we invite viewers to observe the extraordinary athletes and me in the video, trusting in our abilities and paths forged. Our relentless pursuit of perfection in our respective crafts empowers us to shape our destinies, and we exude confidence in our physical beings.
Recently came across the artist Dott Richey, who has great potential! It is evident in his remix for “Blu Dot.” which features Kreesha Turner. kindly share your valuable insights. Your thoughts and perspectives are highly valued and appreciated!
An upgraded 700-horsepower version of Bentley‘s 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 powerplant gives the 2017 Bentley Continental Supersports unprecedented performance for a four-seat car. Specifically, that means 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds and top speed of 209 mph
If that weren’t enough, the crew from Crewe, England, also announced a convertible top version of the car that will whip the hair of the driver (along with spouse and offspring) at 205 mph.
The power upgrade came via an approach familiar to street punks with their slammed sport compact cars. No, not a nitrous oxide bottle! Bigger turbos and intercoolers and a freer-flowing exhaust.
Unlike those clowns, however, Bentley recognizes the need for changes to support the added 79 horsepower, so the mighty W12 engine gets upgraded main bearings and connecting rod bearings to withstand the 700 horses.
The Supersports also has a quicker-locking torque converter to aid its launch from a standstill.
The 21-inch forged aluminum wheels trim 44 pounds of weight from the car and an optional titanium exhaust is good for another 11 pounds.
The newly sculpted front and rear bumper designs incorporate a carbon-fibre splitter and diffuser, while exterior trim such as the grille and window surrounds are blacked out and the headlights and taillights are dark tinted for a menacing effect.
No pricing details have been released, but the previous generation Continental Supersports started at $280,000. The new one won’t cost less.
Fresh off unveiling the Presto Premium in a tasty “Oatmeal” colorway, Nike now takes the concept of “clean” to another level with a white-on-white Presto Essential.
With sleet and grit still prominent on the streets, it’s probably best to keep these sneakers on ice until drier climates abound. A Phylon midsole and Air-Sole heel unit are incorporated for lightweight cushioning, with a molded midfoot cage offering the wearer additional support. The upper is stretched for a lightweight feel, making it the perfect shoe for leisure and performance.
