The internet is lighting up with fuzzy videos of two people who appear to be America’s first couple the Obamas bouncing at a concert by America’s first couple the Carters in a skybox in Maryland on Saturday–which is not unlikely, since Michelle also took Sasha to the On the Run II tour in Paris earlier this month with …

Time to go to Paris, y’all. Two weeks and some change has passed since Beyoncé and her husband surprised-dropped their long-rumored collaborative album Everything Is Love, and (I’m calling it right now) one of the greatest music videos of the past decade for the single “APESHIT.”

Last year, it was announced that Jay-Z was producing (along with a pre-disgraced Weinstein Company) a docuseries based on the life and death of Trayvon Martin. Having landed at the Paramount Network, the trailer for the six-episode series, Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story, is here.

File this one under things that will literally never happen to you or I: Beyoncé and Jay-Z, currently enjoying the European leg of their On the Run II tour, experienced something of a hiccup on Saturday, June 30 in Warsaw, Poland. The duo were stranded mid-air on a floating platform when it failed to descend back to…

Madonna notoriously (and understandably) has one of the largest, most unwieldy egos in the entertainment business, and I do not necessarily bemoan her for it. She transformed pop several times over, and inspired those who continue to do so, but—as one of the most famous people in the world—lacks a certain sense of…

Jay-Z alluded to a collaboration last November when he told the New York Times that he and Beyoncé were “using our art almost like a therapy session.” And it’s true! Meet the Carters, with their surprise album Everything Is Love, which you can stream on Tidal. They’ve unleashed the first video for “APESHIT,” above.

Right? Like... these babies got popped out Beyoncé’s vag. Shit is wild!

On Saturday night, at the 2018 GLAAD Media Awards in New York City, Jay-Z’s mom Gloria Carter took home a Special Recognition Award for her contribution to her son’s 4:44 track, “Smile,” which concludes with his mother performing spoken word for the song’s outro. Her poetry addresses sexuality head on and, as she…

Here’s a really sweet story in which the dirtbag turns out to be repressive heteronormative social mores. In a new clip released from his forthcoming interview with David Letterman on Netflix series My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, Jay-Z recalled how he cried tears of joy after his mom, Gloria Carter, came out to…

The Carters are on the run again, as the prophecy foretold.

During the Q&A section of a special Wag the Dog screening at the 92nd St. Y Monday night, John Oliver surprised guest Dustin Hoffman—and the audience—by bringing up the harassment allegations made against him this year by Anna Graham Hunter.

The rumor that Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z were recording an album together, dates back a few years—when Billboard asked Detail about it in February 2015, it had already been swirling for months. Detail told the magazine, “When you think of Jay and Bey together, you think ‘album,’” and said he’d work to make it come…

You might remember last year when Adele, crying and cradling her Grammy for Album of the Year at the end of the night, tearfully told audiences that Beyoncé actually deserved the award.

In an interview with Rap Radar, Jay-Z addressed the elevator fight heard ‘round the world for the first time since it occurred—which was way back in 2014. And before you start salivating over the potential for tea, allow me to tell you he didn’t spill a damn thing. Or, at least not anything I was thirsty for.

Let’s start with the prognosis: the photographer Justin Bieber hit with his car “suffered non life-threatening injuries to his lower body.” So he’ll be fine. Now that that’s out of the way, the headline bears repeating: Justin Bieber ran over a photographer after church, but it was an accident.

After a few weeks of speculation, Beyonce Knowles-Carter herself finally confirmed several thing in an Instagram post uploaded early Friday morning: the existence of her babies, the names of her babies, and the ages of her babies. The mother of three apparently chose today as the day she would reveal her very rich and…

Following the release of 4:44, Jay-Z continues to share intimate details of the marital turbulence he and Beyoncé have weathered. In a video titled “Footnotes for 4:44,” he, along with many other men of color, discuss toxic masculinity and its reverberations.

Well folks, this is it. I now find it difficult to even remember the origins of Shade Court, though I do clearly remember, like many things in my life, it was born out of my frustration. Frustration at watching publication after publication misuse this wonderful, beautiful word and all the rudeness and arrogance it…
