Drake hints at Young Money / OVO Fest London reunion show
After recently posing in a shot with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj, Drake has added more fuel to fire by hinting a Young Money reunion show may be hitting the UK as early as this summer.
At last night’s set at London’s O2 Arena (the fifth show in his Boy Meets World Tour), Drake gave further teasers, saying “No word of a lie. I just got off the phone with Nicki and she told me to tell y’all, ‘Hello,’” before adding “We might have to do something special, we might have to do some Young Money reunion show out here this summer. I might have to bring all my friends from America, all my friends from Canada, the whole of the OVO.”
Fortunately, the moment was also captured by a fan in attendance – check the full clip below:

Watch Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl 2017 half-time performance in full
Lady Gaga didn’t disappoint as she made her debut under the spotlight at the 2017 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
Opening with a medley of patriotic tracks, Gaga then steered the attentions to a set filled predominantly with her old hits rather than a focus on material from last year’s Joanne.
Supported by a wealth of backup dancers, Gaga belted through the likes of Poker Face and Telephone (among others); Million Reasons was the only nod from her recent LP.
After the performance, Gaga also announced her Joanne World Tour. Dates are yet to be revealed, though we wouldn’t be surprised if UK festival rumours start to rear their heads again!
Check out her full Super Bowl set below:

Though little is known about Sheeran’s performance so far, BRIT Awards Chairman Jason Iley teased: “this year’s exclusive performance will be a very special moment for the 37th BRIT Awards.” With Divide landing 10 days later, we wouldn’t be surprised if Ed had a few surprises up his sleeve.

Listen: Orbital – ‘Kinetic 2017’
Orbital have shared their first piece of new music in five years, reworking 2008’s Kinetic for the 2017 crowd.
Hitting streaming platforms earlier this week, the track comes amidst an official reunion for the pair, who split in 2012 following ‘personal differences’. However after finally burying the hatchet, they are now back, with a new album on the way plus some festival dates to boot too.
Set to hit Forbidden Fruit, Standon Calling and Bluedot across June and July (no word ‘yet’ for a Glastonbury trip), the shows are set to provide fans a teaser of what’s to come from their new project, their first since 2012’s Wonky.
After hearing what the Kinetic revamp sounds like, it seems 2017 could be a wonderful time for Orbital fans, and electronic music in general, so grab a listen below:

Migos have just given the biggest hint yet that they will be performing at this weekend’s Super Bowl, potentially joining headliner Lady Gaga during the half-time slot.

Missy Elliott may have teased a secret album
Hot off the heels of her recent surprise single I’m Better, Missy Elliott has shared further glimpses of what’s to come by teasing a potential surprise new album.
Speaking to Mary Anne Hobbs on her 6Music show last night, Missy spoke candidly about a multitude of topics, from her writing process, alongside the various inspirations behind her mesmerising visuals.
Later in the interview, Mary Anne questioned any kind of forthcoming releases following both I’m Better and 2015’s WTF (Where They From), to which Missy replied “I have a lot of music, and I’ve been scared to say ‘album’ because my fans would stone me if I didn’t drop it. I want to surprise them – that’s fun to me, because God knows, y’know, I’ve watched artists say dates and their fans go crazy when that date comes, and the [project] is not on any blogs.” Missy then finalised the section stressing “I like the element of surprise”.
Elliott’s last full-length studio came in 2005 by way of The Cookbook, so fingers-crossed that surprise lands soon then! You can stream the entire interview below:
