Beyonce to Headline Coachella 2017

Klaudia//January 4, 2017
Start gathering your chic festival gear now -- the lineup for the 2017 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has officially been revealed. The full roster was announced Tuesday (Jan. 3) on the festival's official website, and features Radiohead, Beyonce and Kendrick Lamar as the headliners for both weekends of the fest.

Taking place at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif., over the weekends of April 14-16 and April 21-23, Coachella will feature plenty of other big-name artists on this year's bill. Perhaps one of the most anticipated performances will be from Lorde, who hasn't toured since 2014 or released new original music since 2013's Pure Heroine.

Also featured in the lineup are the xx, Travis Scott, Father John Misty, Future, Bon Iver, DJ Snake, Tove Lo, DJ Khaled and New Order. Passes for Coachella will go on sale at 11 a.m. PST on Wednesday, Jan. 4. Check out the full list of artists below.

Chayse Irvin Comments on Iconic "Lemonade" Shot

Klaudia//December 29, 2016
The top 10 shots of the year according to Variety:

#4

“LEMONADE”
Director of Photography: Chayse Irvin, CSC


“There was a compositional arc throughout the whole collaboration with Khalil , a desire to conceal a lot of information in the frame, or at least the most important information. This shot is a great example of that, because we’re concealing her face with that coat she’s wearing. It was this kind of beast or this mythical creature starting to transform. And what Khalil did with the sound was captivating and interesting. His form of editing is beautiful. He’s constantly stitching together the most contrasting of images to give some sort of metaphor or meaning that resonates on a subjective level.”

—Chayse Irvin


“Lemonade” — Beyonce’s Knowles-Carter’s visual album that hit like a lightning bolt in the spring — has popped up on a few assessments of the year’s best films. Whatever parameters you might have for what makes something a proper movie, the project was absolutely a work of cinema, the compendium of an artist working through many levels of expression. Its identifying image stood out in particular, leading off the proceedings and serving as the album’s key art. There’s an eerily metamorphic quality to it, like something stirring from a slumber to unleash a pent-up energy.

Melina Matsoukas Talks About "Formation" Video

Klaudia//December 29, 2016
We take music videos for granted. In about 35 years, they’ve gone from an alleged scourge on the musical imagination to a form of oxygen. Every so often, one comes along that touches a nerve or causes a scandal. Back in February, on the eve of the Super Bowl, “Formation” stopped the nation. It was another Beyoncé sneak attack, but also a statement piece and a work of art. And for a month, the intent of its imagery — Beyoncé atop a sinking New Orleans Police Department cruiser; the witchiness of her wide-brimmed hat and her seemingly spiritually possessed head bob on the porch of a manse; a young black boy dancing before a phalanx of militarized cops — was deconstructed, debated and defended.

This was Beyoncé, of course. But it was also Melina Matsoukas, who directed “Formation.” These are edited excerpts from The New York Times' conversation with her.

At what point did you get involved with “Formation”?

Right after I came back from Cuba last year, after the family vacation. Beyoncé was performing at the Super Bowl, so she wanted this to come out right before that, obviously, to set up her performance. She wanted to shoot in two weeks. And because it was also my birthday, I probably didn’t even really think about it for a week.

#BEYGood Joins The SCF's Annual Toy Giveaway

Klaudia//December 26, 2016
As we near the end of another year, it’s important that we remember to give thanks and give back. This past weekend, on December 19th, The Shawn Carter Foundation continued their holiday tradition of giving back to our communities with their annual toy giveaway for Brooklyn’s Marcy Projects and surrounding Brooklyn neighborhoods.

This year, #BEYGood partnered with the SCF to provide an additional 100+ children with specially ordered Black Barbie Dolls from Mattel. The experience was made even more magical for these Brooklyn children when they had the opportunity to become life-sized dolls themselves and have their photos taken, thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Carter’s iconic halloween costumes from earlier this year.

For the second consecutive year, the event was hosted at Children of Promise, an organization exclusively serving the clinical needs of youth whose parent or parents are incarcerated and an SCF program partner. Overall, more than 1000+ children aged 3 to 16 and their families were provided with toys and an experience they won’t soon forget.

This holiday season, let’s remember to #BEYGood, have fun, and give back to our communities.

Beyonce to perform at the 2017 Grammy Awards

Klaudia//December 24, 2016
Beyonce and Adele are both set to perform at 2017 Grammy Awards, it's been confirmed.

The R&B superstar and Hello singer will go head-to-head in the categories for Album of The Year, Record of The Year and Song of The Year and Grammy producer Ken Ehrlich is confident both will perform on the night.

He told Billboard: "Very few people say no to the Grammys. Over all of the years I've been doing the show, there have been three or four acts who've actually said no.

"But I can tell you that Adele and Beyoncé are not two of them. We have every anticipation that both of them will be with us in February.

"We love a good horse race. It's a fine line: We love the competition aspect of it, but it's really more - here's the cliché - the family of music. I don't know how many of those three categories they're in together that we'll announce during the telecast, but we'll probably come pretty close. When you can start with that as a foundation for a show, you're in pretty good shape."

Tony Bennett Teases Beyoncé Collaboration

Klaudia//December 17, 2016
“The Best Is Yet to Come” for Tony Bennett, who at 90 years old is showing no signs of slowing down.

“There’s still a lot I’d like to do,” the iconic crooner tells PEOPLE.

The past two years, Bennett has won the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album trophy at the Grammys, this year for Cheek to Cheek, his collection of jazz duets with longtime pal Lady Gaga — and he insists there’s more classics where that came from.

“I’d love to do a second album with Lady Gaga,” he says. “She was performing at a benefit the first time I met her. I told her backstage, ‘You were terrific! I’d love to do an album with you someday.’ She said, ‘Let’s do it!’ Boom! We get along great. We’ve been close ever since.”

Indeed, Gaga — as well as A-listers including Elton John, Michael Bublé and Stevie Wonder — will honor the musician and painter during Tony Bennett Celebrates 90, a two-hour music and comedy special airing at 9 p.m. ET on NBC, Dec. 20.

And Gaga isn’t the only diva Bennett has plans to collaborate with — he and Queen Bey may have something in the works.

“Beyoncé. She’s thinking of something to do with me,” the singer adds with a laugh. “We met at a benefit, and she said, ‘I’ve got an idea that we should do something together.’ She didn’t tell me what it was yet, so we’ll see what happens!”
