Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic This past awards season, Joy Oladokun was nominated for the Grammys’ first Song for Social Change award, for a song off her previous album called “I See America.” If all you ever heard — or heard about — was that tune (opening lines: “I saw God out on the block today / He was darker than the preachers say”), or know that Oladokun once called herself “the trap Tracy Chapman” (half-jokingly), you could easily leap to the assumption that she’s more of a protest singer than a pop artist. But can she be at least a little bit of both? She takes it as a compliment that anyone would use that second P-term in describing her third album, “Proof of Life.” Oladokun has been out on the road opening for John Mayer, and the new record is so radio-friendly — and just so friendly, generally — that it wouldn’t feel like a stretch to see her doing tour dates with someone like a Taylor Swift.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor Bungalow 8 is back – for one night only. Gucci is hosting a Bungalow pop-up in New York City on April 29, two nights ahead of the Met Gala. The fashion house isn’t commenting, but I got my hands on the official invite, which reads, “Amy Sacco & Gucci invite you to Bungalow Gucci.” Idris Elba will deejay the late-night soirée. Sacco opened the original Bungalow 8 in Chelsea in 2001. The small venue at 515 W. 27th St. went onto to become the hottest nightclub in the early and mid-aughts, attracting an A-List crowd — including George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Sean Penn, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Colin Farrell, Naomi Campbell and every other supermodel, Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Matthew McConaughey, Sandra Bullock, Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Justin Timberlake, John Mayer, Sean “Diddy” Combs and Heidi Klum — before closing in 2009.

Grateful Dead Drummer Bill Kreutzmann Drops Out of Final Dead and Company Tour

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Drummer Bill Kreutzmann, one of the founders of the Grateful Dead and a member of spinoff group Dead and Company, will not be a part of the latter group’s farewell tour this summer, the band announced in a social media post Saturday. Although fans might assume his exit could be health-related, since he has had to sit out some Dead and Company shows in recent years, the group declared that was not the case in its post, and added that he is not retiring from music. Rather, the statement said, Kreutzmann’s departure was due to a “shift in creative direction.” No further explanation of what that might mean was forthcoming in the statement.

John Mayer reflects on ‘Paper Doll’ – believed to be about Taylor Swift

John Mayer has reflected upon his song ‘Paper Doll’, which is believed to have been written about Taylor Swift.The lyrics of the decade-old song were brought into the spotlight again after Mayer performed the track during a concert in Sacramento, California, on Saturday (April 8) — the same day that rumours emerged that Taylor Swift called it quits with boyfriend of six years, Joe Alwyn.When the track was first released, some fans criticised the singer and guitarist for his lyrics and speculated that they were written about Swift after the two split. However, Mayer has never stated that the song was aimed at the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer.In clips recorded at last week’s gig, Mayer explains that the “sarcastic” and “bitchy” lyrics in the song were misunderstood by fans, and that the track was written from a place of “hurt” rather than anger.“I wonder if people don’t like it because it sounds a little pissed off.

John Mayer on song allegedly written about ex Taylor Swift: It’s ‘bitchy’

“Paper Doll” at a concert at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, on April 8, where he looked back on the song he allegedly penned about ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift.According to a video that has been making the rounds on social media, Mayer said as he played the guitar: “I wonder if people don’t like it because it sounds a little pissed off.”“I don’t really like ‘pissed off’ as a song,” he continued, adding that “there’s something about it that’s a little bitchy.”He further went on to describe how he makes an effort “not to give bitchiness” in his songs.However, the Connecticut native confessed that it does happen “sometimes,” deeming “Paper Doll” as having some “sarcastic bitch” feelings. “I guess it is sort of a little bit blah,” he said onstage.Rumors have swirled for about a decade, saying that the tune is a response to Swift’s 2010 hit “Dear John.”The “Look What You Made Me Do” songstress and Mayer dated in 2009 and it has been alleged that “Dear John” was inspired by him.There have been some comparisons between the lyrics of both songs.
