Billie Eilish and Finneas Join Jason Owen’s Sandbox Management

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Billie Eilish and her brother/collaborator Finneas have left their managers of a decade, Danny Rukasin and Brandon Goodman’s Best Friends Music Management, for Jason Owen’s Sandbox Entertainment, which reps Kacey Musgraves and Kelsea Ballerini, Eilish’s rep confirms to Variety. While the move comes as a surprise given the peaks of commercial and critical success the two have reached with the close-knit team that has been with them since the start — also including Darkroom and Interscope Records and longtime publicist Alexandra Baker, not to mention the siblings’ parents, who have played a huge role in their careers — rumors began circulating last year that the pair would be leaving Best Friends. Eilish herself has won nine Grammy Awards and 32 nominations, and two best song Academy Awards, with Finneas sharing in most of those and winning the producer of the year Grammy himself in 2020, as well as pursuing an active solo career.

Deafheaven Bring Back the Roar on ‘Lonely People With Power’: Album Review

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music At a time when heavy metal has mutated and evolved into so many different shapes that even the term “post-metal” feels reductive, it’s hard to slap the term on anyone — especially, er, post-metal pioneers Deafheaven, whose unusual fusion of screeched vocals and blast beats with towering, majestic guitars and gentle interludes have always made them hard to pin down. Now 15 years into their career, the band had made a hard left in their sound with 2021’s “Infinite Granite,” which found singer George Clarke dropping the goblin shriek and singing in a more conventional, dare we say alternative style.

Kanye West’s New Album-Film, ‘Bully,’ Is Loaded With (Possibly Uncleared) Samples and Covers: ‘Close to You,’ ‘Can’t Hurry Love,’ Apparently a Verse From Playboi Carti, More

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Kanye West’s innovative use of samples was one of the hallmarks of his early hits — his slowed-down snippets of songs from Chaka Khan, Ray Charles, Daft Punk and more set a sonic path that countless artists would follow from that point on. But in recent years, as West’s behavior became more unpredictable and often aggressive, so too did his adherence to the legalities of samples, interpolations and straight covers of copyrighted songs and sounds.

Dropkick Murphys Suspended From X After Singer Calls Trump a ‘Rat and a Coward’ and Slams Elon Musk

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music In a move more characteristic of autocratic regimes like Russia and China than the United States, the long-running Boston band the Dropkick Murphys have had their account on X (formerly Twitter) suspended, after a series of aggressive comments directed at President Donald Trump, his sidekick Elon Musk — who acquired the company in 2022 — and their followers. The band’s singer, Ken Casey, has a long history of going after Trump, but after a series of comments directed toward MAGA supporters at the band’s concerts and, most recently, an interview on the left-leaning news platform MedasTouch, the group found its account suspended late Monday. “One other thing Dropkick Murphys has always been about is a lot of songs about standing with your friends and family and the things you believe in, whether it’s politics, or just how you were raised,” Casey said on MeidasTouch.

Kanye West Drops New Song Apparently Featuring Diddy (From Prison), North West and Christian ‘King’ Combs

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Kanye West has been one of the few public figures to be outspoken in support of Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is awaiting trial on multiple charges related to sexual assault, and on Saturday, amid a long string of now-familiar hateful social media posts, he dropped a new song that he claims features Combs, along with his son Christian “King” Combs, West’s 11-year-old daughter North, and singer Jasmine Williams.

Bill Ackman’s Pershing Square to Raise $1.4 Billion From Sale of 2.7% of Universal Music Group

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Bill Ackman’s Pershing Square expects to raise $1.4 billion from the sale of a 2.7% stake in Universal Music Group, according to a report in Bloomberg. Ackman announced the sale on social media, but the numbers are from a Bloomberg source citing knowledge of the deal, which reportedly cites “an offering of about 50 million Universal Music shares at €26.60 each.” Ackman wrote about his plans in a post on X on Thursday. While he had some strong words about UMG, in which Pershing currently owns a 7.6% stake, delist from the Euronext in Amsterdam in the wake of terrorist attack in November (and Pershing delisted from the city in January), his comments about the company and its chairman, Lucian Grainge, are a borderline mash note.
