Julien Baker appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers Monday night as the musical guest, performing “Hardline” from her new album Little Oblivions with her band. In a black box performance space lit up by a handful of spotlights, Baker led the anthemic number that deals with her usual themes of depression, substance abuse, and self-forgiveness. “I always told you you could leave at any time/Until then, I’ll split the difference/Between medicine and poison/Take what I can get away with/While it burns right through my stomach,” she sang. Towards the end, the song built up into a U2-like swirl of guitars, drums, and stadium-sized synths. Baker released Little Oblivions last Friday via Matador, following 2017’s Turn Out the Lights . Along with “Hardline,” her third studio album includes the singles “Heatwave,” “ Faith Healer, ” and “ Favor ,” the latter of which features her Boygenius bandmates Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus .

Dr. Seuss Enterprises to Stop Publishing Six Books Due to Racist Imagery
Dr. Seuss Enterprises, which oversees the work of the late children’s book author, said it will stop publishing and licensing six books because they contain racist and insensitive images. The decision was announced on the official Dr. Seuss website Tuesday, March 2nd, which also marks the author’s birthday. The six books are And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street , If I Ran the Zoo , McElligot’s Pool , On Beyond Zebra! , Scrambled Eggs Super! , and The Cat’s Quizzer .

Madison Beer Brings Punchy Kiss-Off ‘I Don’t Speak (Boy)’ to ‘Kimmel’
Madison Beer appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live Monday to perform her new song “Boyshit,” which she temporarily re-dubbed “I Don’t Speak (Boy)” to meet the standards of network television. The performance found Beer and her band performing in a studio space set up to look like a cozy living room filled with teddy bears. Against the song’s bouncing bass groove and plucky guitar riff, Beer crooned the song’s pristine kiss-off hook, “I don’t speak boy/You’re always coming back but your love’s poison/So I think that I would rather just avoid it/I can’t understand you ’cause I don’t speak boy.” “Boyshit” appears on Beer’s new album, Life Support , which she released last month. The album marks Beer’s proper full-length debut and follows her introductory 2018 EP, As She Pleases . “With my album, I made a promise to myself that this is going to be my time to express honestly and truthfully how I’ve been feeling,” Beer told Rolling Stone about Life Support last year. “I could … [Read more...] about Madison Beer Brings Punchy Kiss-Off ‘I Don’t Speak (Boy)’ to ‘Kimmel’
