Rewatch Beyonce’s incredible Coachella set in full

Unless you’ve been living under a rock the past couple of weeks, you’d have been well aware that Beyonce completely owned her first ever headline appearance at Coachella.

We’re not going to review the show bit-by-bit (it was fucking incredible, but you can probably find thousands of write-ups on the web); we are however bringing you the full performance again in all its glory. So sit back, relax, get hyped about ‘THAT’ Destiny’s Child reunion (and a Solange cameo), and, well… fuck it, just go nuts.

Relive this incredible slice of showmanship below:

Naughty Boy announces new single ‘All Or Nothing’

0

Naughty Boy has announced his return to the scene later this week, sharing his first piece of new music for 2018.

Teaming up with Ray BLK and Wyclef Jean, ‘All Or Nothing’ will follow last year’s ‘One Chance To Dance’ which saw the Watford-born producer collaborate with Joe Jonas. It’s highly-likely the song will appear on Naughty’s anticipated forthcoming second studio album, his first since 2013’s excellent ‘Hotel Cabana’ debut.

‘All or Nothing’ will receive its premiere on 1Xtra tomorrow evening (17th April) as DJ Target’s latest Targo Embargo. Check the full artwork below:

Two days on from announcing her return, Nicki Minaj has now shared the video for ‘Chun-Li’.

More low-key than what would have been expected, the clip focuses around Nicki throwing her lyrics on iPhone-recorded visuals; a more ‘traditional’ video is expected to drop imminently for ‘Barbie Tingz’, though.

While all attentions were on The Weeknd’s headline slot, for us (and many of you guys too), we know Coachella’s also all about the house and dance music.

Hitting the stage yesterday, Alan Walker continued on from his spellbinding Ultra set to play a huge crowd in the Californian desert. He’s previously teased a new collaboration with Steve Aoki, and Alan’s Coachella set was the prime place to drop a preview of the track (alongside Steve who also made a cameo).

Listen: Louis The Child and Wafia collaborate on ‘Better Not’

Louis The Child seem to have the rare ability of always being able to churn out excellence. From last month’s ‘Shake Something’ all the way further back to ‘Last To Leave’ and ‘Right To It’, the duo really are pushing boundaries with every cut they release, and today they further that ethos by hooking up with Wafia for their perfect ‘Better Not’.

The track comes ahead of their show at Coachella so it’s timed well – make sure you head over to our live feed on Saturday at 8.45pm PST to catch the lads in action. In the meantime bump ‘Better Not’ below:
