Jay Z and Kanye West’s ‘Watch The Throne’ returns to Spotify

Jay Z and Kanye West’s 2011 collaborative album ‘Watch The Throne’ has returned to Spotify after being removed from the service over a year ago.

Returning without any fanfare (thanks to the tip-off for alerting us, though), the re-appearance of the now-classic project follows last year’s approach from Jay Z which saw him wipe a huge amount of his back-catalogue from all streaming platforms in a bid to bolster subscriptions to his TIDAL service.

At the time, Spotify said the removal was “at the request of the artist”; the platform has not released a press statement on the record’s return. However ‘Watch The Throne’ still remains as one of the few Jay Z albums available on Spotify; Kanye West’s discography however can be listened to in its full glory.

Hear Hannah Wants’ uplifting new single ‘How Long’

Hannah Wants has made her debut on Danny Howard’s burgeoning ‘Nothing Else Matters’ imprint with her new single ‘How Long’.

A melodic production which sees Hannah returning to a more piano-house tone, ‘How Long’ is topped with the emotive vocal delivery of newcomer Kate Loveridge, and follows recent ‘Nothing Else Matters’ releases from the likes of Sonny Fodera, KC Lights, Secondcity, Just Kiddin, Kydus, and many more.

On the song, Hannah says: “I actually went to school with Kate who’s an incredible singer/songwriter and we’ve been wanting to collaborate for a very long time. She sent me the vocal x piano idea and I instantly fell it love, it was gonna make for a perfect summer, feel good house record. I’m really excited about this release!”

The odds of Stormzy headlining Glastonbury have just tumbled

The odds on Stormzy headlining 2019’s Glastonbury Festival have been slashed by bookmaker Betway.

The reveal follows the grime MC updating his Insta Story with a post mimicking Noel Gallagher’s famed 2008 quote “No, I’m not havin hip hop at Glastonbury. F***in no chance” – this led to the online bookie taking measures to shorten their offering of the star being booked for Worthy Farm in 2019.

Kendrick Lamar, just 4/5 before the latest odds shift, has been pushed out to 6/5 but still tops the betting, ahead of 9/4-chance Elton John and 5/2-shot Kylie Minogue.

Betway’s Alan Alger said: “The smallest hint on social media can send odds plummeting these days and Stormzy’s latest post has left us receiving a wave of betting interest and we’ve had to cut his odds from 10/1 to 7/2. Emily Eavis has branched out into different genre’s recently to keep Glasto fresh and Stormzy might just be the man to provide something a bit different to next year’s show. As things stand, the odds suggest the headliners in 2019 for Friday to Sunday will be Kendrick Lamar, 6/5, Elton John, 9/4, and Kylie Minogue at 5/2, but Stormzy is well in contention at 7/2, while the Artic Monkeys and Fleetwood Mac could add a more authentic rock feel to the festival at 9/2.”

Check the latest odds below; Glastonbury Festival will return on 26th Jun 2019 and run until 30th June.

Listen: Disclosure share their final track of the week – ‘Where You Come From’

“Okay world, this is it, last track.. for now!” say Disclosure, following the announcement of ‘Where You Come From’, their fifth new song in as many days.

Sampling Sudanese artist Kamal Keila, the song follows a stream of new music from the duo, released merely for fun. Monday saw Disclosure release ‘Moonlight‘, with ‘Where Angels Fear To Tread’ following one day later. Wednesday saw the release of ‘Love Can Be So Hard‘ and their penultimate track of the week came via the Gwen McCrae-sampling ‘Funky Sensation‘. The Lawrence brothers recently revealed that their third album was still in its early stages of development, and that the past few days have just been more of a showcase of what they’ve been up to.
