Nicki Minaj Brings Out Cyndi Lauper For 'Pink Friday Girls' Duet At Brooklyn Show

Nicki Minaj surprised her fans during a show in Brooklyn by bringing out Cyndi Lauper.

During her performance at Brooklyn's Barclays Center on her Pink Friday 2 World Tour on Wednesday night, May 1, Minaj invited Lauper onto the stage after which the duo performed "Pink Friday Girls" for the first time together.

"I have been speaking about this woman in my interviews since I first began rapping," Nicki told the crowd after bowing in front of Lauper.

"Pink Friday Girls" was produced by J. Reid and the track spent one week on the Billboard Hot 100. The track features a prominent sample of Lauper's signature hit, "Girls Just Want to Have Fun."

Minaj previously said that this was the first instance in history that Lauper cleared the "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" sample for another artist.

"I'm told she's never cleared a master recording. I am so grateful," Nicki wrote on X in December. "I've always loved her as you guys know."

Siouxsie Sioux Duets With Iggy Pop On New Version Of 'The Passenger'

Siouxsie Sioux Duets With Iggy Pop On New Version Of 'The Passenger'

Siouxsie Sioux has teamed up with Iggy Pop for a new rendition of "The Passenger."

The song was originally co-written and recorded by Iggy Pop for his iconic album Lust For Life, which dropped in 1977.

"The Passenger" was then re-recorded a decade later, by Siouxsie And The Banshees, for their 1987 covers album Through The Looking Glass.

Now, nearly 35 years later, Sioux and Pop teamed up to remake the song for the third time for a new advert to promote Magnum ice cream.

In the ad, an actress is seen eating an ice cream bar while riding on a train and, in the background, the new rendition of the song can be heard.

In a press statement, Pop praised Siouxsie, saying she "can sing like a bird," and adding, "I've always thought she was a great lady. Her version of the song was already special, but what happened here, singing together, is really unique. Like 'Volare,' the orchestral treatment and marriage of voices flies free, in a spirit of joy."

Siouxsie added, "I love this song, and I've always loved Iggy's voice. I adore how instinctive and spontaneous it all feels and to hear my voice with Iggy's is such a dream."

The video, produced by Mutter & Vater and directed by Leo Feimer, showcases the band against the backdrop of the new album artwork and captures the group's stage performance.

Longtime Electric Light Orchestra Keyboardist Richard Tandy Dead At 76

Longtime Electric Light Orchestra Keyboardist Richard Tandy Dead At 76

Richard Tandy, the longtime keyboardist of the Electric Light Orchestra, has died at the age of 76.

ELO founder Jeff Lynne shared the news on social media.

"It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of my long-time collaborator and dear friend Richard Tandy. He was a remarkable musician & friend and I'll cherish the lifetime of memories we had together," Lynne wrote on Instagram on Thursday.

Lynne also shared a number of photos and a video featuring him and Tandy in the post.

The British musician joined ELO in 1972 and was part of the band when it split in 1986.

Tandy began as ELO's bass player and shortly switched over to keyboards.

Tandy was a multi-instrumentalist, whose palette of keyboards included Minimoog, Clavinet, Mellotron, and piano.

His keyboards were a key part in ELO's sound, especially on the albums A New World Record, Out of the Blue, Discovery, and Time.

Tandy was the only past member to rejoin the band when Lynne revived the group as Jeff Lynne's ELO in 2014.

Tandy was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2017 as a member of the Electric Light Orchestra.

Tandy's first marriage was to Carol "Cookie", which ended in divorce; he then married Sheila.

Sebastian Bach Shares Video For New Single '(Hold On) To The Dream'

Sebastian Bach Shares Video For New Single '(Hold On) To The Dream'

Former Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach recently released a video for "(Hold On) To The Dream," the latest song from his upcoming solo album, Child Within Man.

Jim Louvau and Tony Aguilera directed the visual for the track.

"If someone asked me to play the heaviest song I have ever recorded, in my 35-year career, I would play them '(Hold On) To The Dream,'" Bach said.

"This song is an homage to two of my favorite things: classic metal of the '70s and also yacht rock as well! Hence the new term yacht metal! I have never heard a song quite like '(Hold On) To The Dream' where the crushing verse is combined with the luxurious chest-hair harmonies of the chorus," he added. "I have tried to incorporate every tone of my voice into this song. For those of you keeping score, I can tell you that my voice hits some of the highest notes of my career in '(Hold On) To The Dream!' Hold on to your seats! Caution: this is a monster jam!"

Child Within Man is due out on May 10th via Reigning Phoenix Music.
