Kanye West has announced a revised release date for his upcoming record, ‘Jesus Is King’.

Originally expected to land last month before being removed from release lists, West’s latest studio outing will now officially drop this Friday, 25th October. The date also coincides with the project’s official companion movie of the same name, which will be screened exclusively in IMAX cinemas across the globe. Fans should visit JesusIsKing.IMAX.com to purchase tickets.

Centred around Kanye’s infamous Sunday Service, the film will feature 13 songs arranged by West in the gospel tradition and performed by the Sunday Service choir — as well as all-new music from the album.

Kasabian have announced a hometown show at Leicester’s Victoria Park, marking their only UK date in 2020.

Set to celebrate six years since their first show at the venue, the 20th June date (which will see Sam Fender on support) will be the band’s first outdoor UK show since their massive Isle of Wight headline set in 2018.

Currently working on new music, the band’s frontman Serge said: “We’re absolutely buzzing to be able to put on Solstice II in our home town of Leicester. Anyone who came last time would know how special it was and to get the opportunity to do it again is beyond a dream”.

The news marks disappointment for Glastonbury fans who hoped the band’s ‘Solstice’ teaser would lead to an appearance at the festival’s 50th anniversary in June.

Tickets go on sale Friday 25th October at 9am; click here for details.

Frank Ocean has debuted an unreleased collaboration with French house duo Justice.

Premiered at Ocean’s PrEP+ club night in NYC, ‘Dear April’ is likely to fall part of the singer’s upcoming new body of material, which he previously stated was influenced by the night-time house and electronic scenes in Detroit and Chicago. The song will also join another new track ‘Cayendo’ as an exclusive vinyl release toward the end of the year, with the latter receiving a remix from Sango.

In related news, the latest surprise episode of Frank’s blondedRADIO on Apple’s Beats 1 has also just kicked off; you can listen to that over on Beats 1 here. Listen to previews of both ‘Dear April’ and Cayendo’ below:

After the hyped supposed release of his long-awaited album ‘Jesus Is King’ (which failed to materialise in September), Kanye West seems to be keeping to at least one release-date, this time for the project’s companion film.

The movie has already been previewed with a handful of one-off screenings over the past month, but as of next week (25th October), fans will be able to view the documentary in full at various IMAX screens globally.

Check out the full trailer over on Kanye’s official website, here, alongside a small teaser courtesy of DefJam, below; a revised release date for the ‘Jesus Is King’ album has yet to be announced.

Missy Elliott has shared her dazzling new video for ‘DripDemeanor’, the latest track from her summer EP, ‘Iconology‘.

Released back in August, ‘Iconology’ marked Missy’s first package of new music since 2005’s ‘The Cookbook’, and came ahead of being awarded the recipient of MTV’s Music Vanguard Award.

The ‘DripDemeanor’ clip, which features Missy alongside Sum1 (and a handful of on-point dancers), builds on Elliott’s impeccable track record of ‘out there’ visuals, and follows on from Iconology’s lead single ‘Throw It Back’.

Glass Animals reveal 2020 return to the road

Glass Animals have announced their return to the road, just over a year on from drummer Joe Seaward’s horrific road accident.

Last September, the four-piece cancelled their run of European shows after Seaward was struck by a truck whilst riding a bike in Ireland; the drummer sustained serious injuries including a fractured skull and broken leg.

Now almost three years on from their acclaimed second album ‘How To Be A Human Being’, Glass Animals will return to touring in 2020, falling part of the just-announced bill for Florida’s Okeechobee Music and Arts Festival.

Set to take place across the 5-8th March weekend, the festival’s 2020 line-up will see RÜFÜS DU SOL, Vampire Weekend and Mumford & Sons lead the pack, with additional acts including the likes of HAIM, CASPA, Suerptask, Bloody Orange, Clairo and more.

One can only hope that Glass Animals’ return will also see a preview of new music (and hopefully a place on the Glastonbury 2020 bill).

It’s good to have you back, lads! (Particularly Joe!).

Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin ruled out of Glastonbury 2020

The Pyramid Stage

After being high on the wish-list of attendees for years now, it seems that hopes of Fleetwood Mac or Led Zeppelin playing Glastonbury have been dashed, for 2020 at least.

Confirmed by Emily Eavis during a talk at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, the ruling out of both acts have put the likes of Elton John and Paul McCartney as front-runners to headline Glastonbury’s 50th anniversary in June.

Answering questions from The Times columnist Hugo Rifkind, Eavis instantly ruled out Fleetwood Mac, whilst also confirming that two acts have been booked to headline so far – the final act is still being worked on. According to Eavis, Led Zeppelin is often a band that appears in the rumour-mill, but they would be unlikely to appear in 2020 either.

Earlier in the week, organisers confirmed the first major booking, with Diana Ross set to make her Glastonbury debut as the 2020 Legend. Tickets for Glastonbury 2020 have now sold out, with a resale expected in the spring.

Diana Ross has become the first major act to be confirmed for 2020’s Glastonbury Festival, heading up the Pyramid Stage’s coveted Legends Slot on Sunday 28th June.

Announced moments ago, Ross will make her Pyramid Stage debut in a show that will mark her first UK performance since 2008. With the reveal, the Motown star said “To all my fans across the world, this is my tribute to you…. Every concert feels like a private party. I can see your eyes and feel your hearts. I’m coming to Glastonbury, with love.”

Often seen as Glasto’s ‘unofficial fourth headliner’, previous Sunday afternoon performers have included the likes of Kylie Minogue, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie, Tony Bennett and Dame Shirley Bassey.

Glastonbury 2020 runs from 24-28th June.
