The post 2025 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History With 11 Nominations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Beyoncé is already the most decorated artist in the history of the Grammy Awards with a total of 32 wins, but she now surprised her husband Jay-Z to become the most nominated artist, as well. She also broke the tie she previously shared with Lauryn Hill for most nominations for a female artist in a single year.
Despite writing her name in history books time and time again, Beyoncé is yet to win the coveted album of the year award. She’ll get another chance to come up victorious with Cowboy Carter, competing against the likes of Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, and Billie Eilish.
Beyoncé also received nods for song and record of the year with “Texas Hold ‘Em”, but the race for these awards will be pretty tight. Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather”, Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone, Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck Babe”, and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” are also in the running.
The 2025 Grammy Awards are returning to the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 2, 2025, and the host is yet to be announced.

The post 2025 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History With 11 Nominations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The post Billie Eilish Gets Vulnerable and Honest on “Hit Me Hard and Soft” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>When Eilish initially announced this album, she described it as a diverse yet cohesive collection of songs, which hits you hard and soft both lyrically and sonically, while bending genres and defying trends along the way. She certainly kept her promise, giving us a collection of 10 amazing songs you can’t help but listen to from beginning to end.
Eilish dropped Hit Me Hard and Soft on May 17, and celebrated its release by sharing the music video for the lead single “Lunch”. This catchy song features electro and synth-pop elements, and it’s inspired by the singer’s realization she’s attracted to both men and women.
“Lunch” will win people over with its catchy sound, but it’s not the only amazing song that Hit Me Hard and Soft has in store. All 10 tracks on this album work together in perfect harmony, but “Birds of a Feather”, “Chihiro”, and “L’Amour de Ma Vie” have the potential to become its biggest hits.

]]>The post 2024 Academy Awards: Billie Eilish, Becky G, & Ryan Gosling Among Performers appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Billie Eilish is one of the front-runners for the best original song Oscar, and she’ll hit the stage with her brother Finneas O’Connell for a powerful rendition of “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie. Ryan Gosling will join forces with Mark Ronson to bring another Barbie song to the Oscars stage – the viral hit “I’m Just Ken”.
The remaining three best original song nominees will also be performed at the Oscars. Becky G will grace the stage with her take on Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, Jon Batiste will perform “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony, while Scott George and the Osage Singers will put a new twist on “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
This announcement comes shortly after the Academy unveiled the first round of this year’s presenters, which includes many previous Oscar winners, including last year’s recipients Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Brendan Fraser.
The 2024 Academy Awards will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel coming back to host the ceremony for the fourth time.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Gives Us Nostalgia Overload With “What Was I Made For?” Music Video appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Eilish gave us a major nostalgia overload with a retro yellow dress and a stylish blonde ponytail, but clear Barbie references weren’t the only intriguing aspect of this video. The singer also reflected on some of her past eras by hanging doll-sized replicas of her iconic past looks on a tiny rack, before rain and wind repeatedly knocked it down.
Eilish was going through a writing block before Greta Gerwig showed her a short snippet from Barbie because she wanted her to write a song for the soundtrack. She once again joined forces with her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas O’Connell and ended up pouring her own emotions into a song that was initially only meant to reflect Barbie’s journey.
Even before Eilish’s amazing contribution, Barbie: The Album was shaping up to be the soundtrack of the summer. It will hit the shelves on July 21 and feature music from such A-list stars as Dua Lipa, Ava Max, Charli XCX, Fifty Fifty, Ice Spice, Karol G, Lizzo, and Nicki Minaj.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Shares Trailer for Her Concert Film “A Love Letter to L.A.” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>A Love Letter to L.A. will see Eilish perform all the songs from her acclaimed second studio effort Happier Than Ever in order. She is joined on stage by her brother and producer Finneas, the L.A. Philharmonic, and several other guests. The performances, set in the Los Angeles’ iconic music venue Hollywood Bowl, will be intermixed with animated takes representing the “bad guy” singer’s “love letter” to the city.
“It’s a concert film, but it’s also a story at the same time,” says Eilish in the trailer. “This kind of beautiful version of Old Hollywood and the Hollywood Bowl, it’s very timeless.”
You can check out the clip, featuring a voice-over from Eilish herself, below.
Billie Eilish released Happier Than Ever back in July. The album was met with universal praise from the critics while debuting at the No.1 on US Billboard 200 charts. It also topped charts in more than 20 other countries.
Eilish is currently planning to promote the שךנוצ with a world tour across North America and Europe. The first leg of the live shows is scheduled to kick off in early February.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Shares Music Video for Heart-Wrenching Single “Your Power” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The hunting video for “Your Power” opens with a wide shot of the mountains in Simi Valley. As the camera zooms in, we notice Eilish sitting on the ground. Things get more sinister as the video progresses, and we notice a giant anaconda enter the frame, wrapping itself around the singer.
Eilish’s latest single explores the abuse of power, especially at the hands of men. She discussed the meaning behind it with BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, and said this is sadly a very relatable experience for people. “I’m not gonna make it about my experiences because it’s really hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands and millions of people have experienced this every single day. It’s everywhere you look and I hate it and I wanted to say something,” explained Eilish.
“Your Power” will be featured on Eilish’s second studio album Happier Than Ever, to be released on July 30th, alongside the previously released singles “My Future” and “Therefore I Am”.

]]>The post 2021 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History at a Female-Dominated Ceremony appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Beyoncé came out victorious in four separate categories—the best R&B performance with “Black Parade”, the best music video with “Brown Skin Girl”, the best rap performance and best rap song with the remix of Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage”. This brought her total of Grammy wins to 28, making her the most rewarded woman in the show’s history.
Taylor Swift also made history as the first female artist to win three awards for the album of the year, after dominating this category with Folklore. Billie Eilish collected her second consecutive record of the year award for her soul-baring single “Everything I Wanted”.
Megan Thee Stallion shared two of her awards with Beyoncé, but she also dominated one major category on her own—the best new artist. The song of the year category brought one of the biggest shockers of the night, as H.E.R. came out victorious with “I Can’t Breathe”.
The 63rd Annual Grammy Awards were held on March 14th in and around the Los Angeles Convention Center, with Trevor Noah serving as a host.

]]>The post A Star-Studded “One World: Together at Home” Album to be Released appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The likes of Taylor Swift, The Rolling Stones, and Billie Eilish took part in this live concert event, curated by Lady Gaga. It ended up raising $127 million for the World Health Organization, reserved for coronavirus relief.
The goal of the One World: Together at Home album is to let fans revisit their favorite performances, and the proceeds will be donated to charity, as well.
“With the generous support of artists, record labels and the world’s biggest streaming services, One World: Together At Home The Album will continue to generate support for the healthcare and other frontline workers around the world who are helping to save lives,” said Hugh Evans, CEO, and co-founder of Global Citizen.

]]>The post Rosalia Details Billie Eilish, Travis Scott Collaborations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Rosalia discussed her plans for the future during a recent appearance on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music show Beats 1 and revealed she’s trying to do all the vocal production for her next record in the small studio that she set up in her room.
The “Con Altura” singer shared new details about her highly-anticipated collaboration with Billie Eilish and said she’s “quite close” to finishing it up. She’s almost done with the sound design, and she’s expecting the “Bad Guy” singer to send her the vocals.
Rosalia also teased a collaboration with Travis Scott and described it as a “super aggressive club song.” She’s been working on this track for a while, but didn’t feel like it’s the right time to release it since it doesn’t feel “connected with what was going on in the world at the moment.”

]]>The post Billie Eilish Starts Work on Next Album, Brother Says appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>“We’ve started working on the new album, and I think the best thing we can do is stay out of our own way,” he said. “The first album was pretty pure in its intention. We didn’t set out to write a darling album. Our only target was to make an album that we liked to play live. I think that’s all we’re gonna do for the second. All the other things are side effects. You can’t aim for those.”
Earlier, Finneas has stated that the next Billie Eilish album will take a more experimental direction
“We’re just trying to tell all those, and we’re being a little bit experimental. I think if you’re not trying to change things a little bit, you’re not evolving,” he told Billboard during the American Music Awards.
“So I think we’re just trying to embrace everything that we are proud of in our music and also just try new things and experiment and give people stuff to look forward to.”

]]>The post 2025 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History With 11 Nominations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Beyoncé is already the most decorated artist in the history of the Grammy Awards with a total of 32 wins, but she now surprised her husband Jay-Z to become the most nominated artist, as well. She also broke the tie she previously shared with Lauryn Hill for most nominations for a female artist in a single year.
Despite writing her name in history books time and time again, Beyoncé is yet to win the coveted album of the year award. She’ll get another chance to come up victorious with Cowboy Carter, competing against the likes of Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, and Billie Eilish.
Beyoncé also received nods for song and record of the year with “Texas Hold ‘Em”, but the race for these awards will be pretty tight. Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather”, Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone, Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck Babe”, and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” are also in the running.
The 2025 Grammy Awards are returning to the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 2, 2025, and the host is yet to be announced.

The post 2025 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History With 11 Nominations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The post Billie Eilish Gets Vulnerable and Honest on “Hit Me Hard and Soft” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>When Eilish initially announced this album, she described it as a diverse yet cohesive collection of songs, which hits you hard and soft both lyrically and sonically, while bending genres and defying trends along the way. She certainly kept her promise, giving us a collection of 10 amazing songs you can’t help but listen to from beginning to end.
Eilish dropped Hit Me Hard and Soft on May 17, and celebrated its release by sharing the music video for the lead single “Lunch”. This catchy song features electro and synth-pop elements, and it’s inspired by the singer’s realization she’s attracted to both men and women.
“Lunch” will win people over with its catchy sound, but it’s not the only amazing song that Hit Me Hard and Soft has in store. All 10 tracks on this album work together in perfect harmony, but “Birds of a Feather”, “Chihiro”, and “L’Amour de Ma Vie” have the potential to become its biggest hits.

]]>The post 2024 Academy Awards: Billie Eilish, Becky G, & Ryan Gosling Among Performers appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Billie Eilish is one of the front-runners for the best original song Oscar, and she’ll hit the stage with her brother Finneas O’Connell for a powerful rendition of “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie. Ryan Gosling will join forces with Mark Ronson to bring another Barbie song to the Oscars stage – the viral hit “I’m Just Ken”.
The remaining three best original song nominees will also be performed at the Oscars. Becky G will grace the stage with her take on Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, Jon Batiste will perform “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony, while Scott George and the Osage Singers will put a new twist on “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
This announcement comes shortly after the Academy unveiled the first round of this year’s presenters, which includes many previous Oscar winners, including last year’s recipients Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Brendan Fraser.
The 2024 Academy Awards will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel coming back to host the ceremony for the fourth time.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Gives Us Nostalgia Overload With “What Was I Made For?” Music Video appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Eilish gave us a major nostalgia overload with a retro yellow dress and a stylish blonde ponytail, but clear Barbie references weren’t the only intriguing aspect of this video. The singer also reflected on some of her past eras by hanging doll-sized replicas of her iconic past looks on a tiny rack, before rain and wind repeatedly knocked it down.
Eilish was going through a writing block before Greta Gerwig showed her a short snippet from Barbie because she wanted her to write a song for the soundtrack. She once again joined forces with her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas O’Connell and ended up pouring her own emotions into a song that was initially only meant to reflect Barbie’s journey.
Even before Eilish’s amazing contribution, Barbie: The Album was shaping up to be the soundtrack of the summer. It will hit the shelves on July 21 and feature music from such A-list stars as Dua Lipa, Ava Max, Charli XCX, Fifty Fifty, Ice Spice, Karol G, Lizzo, and Nicki Minaj.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Shares Trailer for Her Concert Film “A Love Letter to L.A.” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>A Love Letter to L.A. will see Eilish perform all the songs from her acclaimed second studio effort Happier Than Ever in order. She is joined on stage by her brother and producer Finneas, the L.A. Philharmonic, and several other guests. The performances, set in the Los Angeles’ iconic music venue Hollywood Bowl, will be intermixed with animated takes representing the “bad guy” singer’s “love letter” to the city.
“It’s a concert film, but it’s also a story at the same time,” says Eilish in the trailer. “This kind of beautiful version of Old Hollywood and the Hollywood Bowl, it’s very timeless.”
You can check out the clip, featuring a voice-over from Eilish herself, below.
Billie Eilish released Happier Than Ever back in July. The album was met with universal praise from the critics while debuting at the No.1 on US Billboard 200 charts. It also topped charts in more than 20 other countries.
Eilish is currently planning to promote the שךנוצ with a world tour across North America and Europe. The first leg of the live shows is scheduled to kick off in early February.

]]>The post Billie Eilish Shares Music Video for Heart-Wrenching Single “Your Power” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The hunting video for “Your Power” opens with a wide shot of the mountains in Simi Valley. As the camera zooms in, we notice Eilish sitting on the ground. Things get more sinister as the video progresses, and we notice a giant anaconda enter the frame, wrapping itself around the singer.
Eilish’s latest single explores the abuse of power, especially at the hands of men. She discussed the meaning behind it with BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, and said this is sadly a very relatable experience for people. “I’m not gonna make it about my experiences because it’s really hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands and millions of people have experienced this every single day. It’s everywhere you look and I hate it and I wanted to say something,” explained Eilish.
“Your Power” will be featured on Eilish’s second studio album Happier Than Ever, to be released on July 30th, alongside the previously released singles “My Future” and “Therefore I Am”.

]]>The post 2021 Grammy Awards: Beyoncé Makes History at a Female-Dominated Ceremony appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Beyoncé came out victorious in four separate categories—the best R&B performance with “Black Parade”, the best music video with “Brown Skin Girl”, the best rap performance and best rap song with the remix of Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage”. This brought her total of Grammy wins to 28, making her the most rewarded woman in the show’s history.
Taylor Swift also made history as the first female artist to win three awards for the album of the year, after dominating this category with Folklore. Billie Eilish collected her second consecutive record of the year award for her soul-baring single “Everything I Wanted”.
Megan Thee Stallion shared two of her awards with Beyoncé, but she also dominated one major category on her own—the best new artist. The song of the year category brought one of the biggest shockers of the night, as H.E.R. came out victorious with “I Can’t Breathe”.
The 63rd Annual Grammy Awards were held on March 14th in and around the Los Angeles Convention Center, with Trevor Noah serving as a host.

]]>The post A Star-Studded “One World: Together at Home” Album to be Released appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>The likes of Taylor Swift, The Rolling Stones, and Billie Eilish took part in this live concert event, curated by Lady Gaga. It ended up raising $127 million for the World Health Organization, reserved for coronavirus relief.
The goal of the One World: Together at Home album is to let fans revisit their favorite performances, and the proceeds will be donated to charity, as well.
“With the generous support of artists, record labels and the world’s biggest streaming services, One World: Together At Home The Album will continue to generate support for the healthcare and other frontline workers around the world who are helping to save lives,” said Hugh Evans, CEO, and co-founder of Global Citizen.

]]>The post Rosalia Details Billie Eilish, Travis Scott Collaborations appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Rosalia discussed her plans for the future during a recent appearance on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music show Beats 1 and revealed she’s trying to do all the vocal production for her next record in the small studio that she set up in her room.
The “Con Altura” singer shared new details about her highly-anticipated collaboration with Billie Eilish and said she’s “quite close” to finishing it up. She’s almost done with the sound design, and she’s expecting the “Bad Guy” singer to send her the vocals.
Rosalia also teased a collaboration with Travis Scott and described it as a “super aggressive club song.” She’s been working on this track for a while, but didn’t feel like it’s the right time to release it since it doesn’t feel “connected with what was going on in the world at the moment.”

]]>The post Billie Eilish Starts Work on Next Album, Brother Says appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>“We’ve started working on the new album, and I think the best thing we can do is stay out of our own way,” he said. “The first album was pretty pure in its intention. We didn’t set out to write a darling album. Our only target was to make an album that we liked to play live. I think that’s all we’re gonna do for the second. All the other things are side effects. You can’t aim for those.”
Earlier, Finneas has stated that the next Billie Eilish album will take a more experimental direction
“We’re just trying to tell all those, and we’re being a little bit experimental. I think if you’re not trying to change things a little bit, you’re not evolving,” he told Billboard during the American Music Awards.
“So I think we’re just trying to embrace everything that we are proud of in our music and also just try new things and experiment and give people stuff to look forward to.”
