Swizz Beatz, who's made hits for Drake, Jay Z and Kanye West, says the best hip-hop is being made in the UK. "Just last night I did a track with Giggs and it's a movie. There's a lot of talent out here," he said. "Musically the UK is stronger than the US right now. As far as the hunger and the unique vibes." He says capturing new sounds is part of the reason for his frequent trips to Britain. "I'm […]

"I feel like we've got the coolest people listening to our music," says Josh Dun, drummer in Twenty One Pilots. "The type of people who would call us out if we did something dumb. They'd know if we just phoned in a show or a song. They keep us on our toes." These days, those toes barely touch the ground. Twenty One Pilots have played 128 shows so far this year and almost by stealth, they've become the year's biggest […]
Alicia Keys has called anyone who doesn't class themselves as a feminist as "crazy". Speaking to Elle UK magazine for its make-up free edition, the 35-year-old singer said the concept was "about owning your own power, embracing your womanhood".

The star made the comments after launching her #NoMakeUp movement earlier this year. She […]
Little Mix have said they had to develop a "thick skin" to deal with the pressure of being in the spotlight. The band's Jesy Nelson said that becoming famous so quickly had been a "shock to the system". "I think there's a lot of pressure, especially for young girls, to look a certain way. When we went on The X Factor we didn't look that great and we got a lot of stick for it and it was hard." Little […]

Koko, Bedroom Bar and Dalston Superstore were among the bars and clubs to take part. It was organised by […]
