Taylor Swift Needs to Let the Showgirl Era Go (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Adding more songs to an album with a deluxe rerelease months later can either refuel the project’s commercial potential or weigh it down with leftovers once deemed inessential. Not everyone scores their “Super Bass” or “Hips Don’t Lie,” the post-album single that outshines the preceding hit parade. Taylor Swift, queen of alternate versions, married NFL tight end Travis Kelce in Madison Square Garden in July while running a merch-and-extras campaign that made her feel almost ever-present since la
Miley Plays It Safe (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Miley Cyrus, who’s going by just Miley these days, has never seemed more at peace with herself. Her tenth album, Bass Persuades, is seemingly by design an exercise in maintaining that peace. It is shockingly invested in a sense of security, from songs about taking a five-year relationship to the next level to tried-and-true musical and lyrical conceits.

This is the story of JAŸ-Z in 8, a new long but guarded eight-part HBO docuseries about the rapper directed and produced by Def Jam co-foun
29 Albums We Can’t Wait to Hear This Fall (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This year’s Fall Preview surveys the movies, shows, books, plays, exhibits, albums, and performances that our writers and editors are excited to consume this season. Below, our albums list: The Gaslight Anthem front man’s yearning warble and Garden State origins often draw comparisons to Bruce Springsteen, the final boss of Jersey artists speaking to Everyman struggles. But Fallon’s fifth album fixates on other sonic territory, tiptoeing around the punchy, rootsy rock of Tom Petty and collaborat
