Ceci est la traduction adaptée d’un article d'Andre Gee, originalement publié par Rolling Stone le 31 juillet 2025. Nous republions l'article originalement intitulé Chance The Rapper Sets Release Date For New Album ‘Star Line’ avec la permission de son auteur. Notez que certaines subtilités et nuances peuvent différer de la version originale.

L’album Star Line de Chance The Rapper sortira enfin le 15 août. Inspiré par des voyages au Ghana, en Jamaïque et ailleurs, le projet est offert en précommande au format CD et numérique sur le site starlinegallery.co. La pochette, fidèle au style visuel développé par l’artiste depuis ses débuts, est signée une fois de plus par Brandon Breaux, son collaborateur de longue date.


Selon l’équipe de Chance, Star Line reflète le parcours artistique, spirituel et physique du rappeur à l’échelle mondiale au cours des six dernières années. Réalisé en collaboration avec le producteur DexLvL, l’album mêle hip-hop, soul et sonorités expérimentales dans une réflexion lyrique sur l’identité, la résilience et l’héritage.

Trois semaines plus tôt, Chance annonçait la sortie prochaine de l’album en dévoilant un premier extrait intitulé Tree, avec Lil Wayne et Smino. Construite autour d’un échantillon de Video d’India Arie, la chanson réunit les trois artistes autour de leur passion pour le cannabis. Réalisé par Chance lui-même, le clip a été tourné dans la boutique Atrium, une dispensaire dirigée par des femmes noires à Woodland Hills, en Californie.

Tous les produits dérivés de Star Line, y compris les CD, seront munis de puces NFC permettant de débloquer du contenu exclusif lié à l’album — une première pour un disque admissible au classement Billboard. Star Line avait été annoncé en 2022, trois ans après The Big Day, le premier album studio du rappeur (ses projets précédents étaient classés comme mixtapes). Depuis, Chance a enchaîné les simples et organisé une séance d’écoute privée à Atlanta. En mai dernier, il a présenté un nouvel extrait intitulé Space and Time lors de la finale de l’émission The Voice.

Hear Dolly Parton’s First Posthumous Song — From a New Stanley Brothers Tribute Album

Almost all of the tracks on the years-in-the-making, all-star tribute album Where the Soul Never Dies: Celebrating 80 Years of The Stanley Brothers, due Oct. 16, were recorded live in the studio, but the album’s producers made an exception for Dolly Parton. During a Covid surge circa 2022, Parton was taking no chances, so she recorded her vocal for the traditional song “Bound to Ride” (which the Stanley Brothers helped popularize with a 1964 recording) alone at her own studio. The virtuoso musicians known as the First Ladies of Bluegrass earlier laid down a backing track for her on their own, though you’d never know it by the playful vibrancy of her performance.

Bootsy Collins Is About to Reveal All in Upcoming Memoir

In his 74 years on this planet, funk bass hero Bootsy Collins has survived James Brown’s frivolous fines, kept it on the one with George Clinton in Parliament and Funkadelic, and, as a solo artist, become the avatar for a whole genre since his influence echoes in the music of Prince, Dr. Dre, and Red Hot Chili Peppers. The title of his upcoming memoir, due March 23, is a nice summary of his existence: Funked Around, Found Out. But Collins says the book goes way deeper than that.

“Alright y’all pay attention, because here’s the key change: You’ve heard the records, but it’s finally time to tell my story — the whole truth, nothin’ but the truth, straight up, real deal,” he said in a statement. “If I’m lyin’, I’m dyin’ — ­and I ain’t ready to go yet.”

Nate Amos Is an Acclaimed Songwriter. He’s Not Sure How That Happened, Either

The first time Nate Amos refers to himself as a songwriter in conversation, he uses air quotes. “Now that I’m a songwriter, quote unquote….” Amos says offhand during a recent interview. Why does one of the most widely hailed songwriters of recent years — the guy whose originals have been covered by Waxahatchee, Cameron Winter, Hayley Williams, Jeff Tweedy, and MJ Lenderman in the last 18 months alone — feel that those quote marks are needed?

“I always thought of myself much more in terms of composition, production, and conceptual art,” says Amos, who records as This is Lorelei. “I kept bouncing off the bottom of the rabbit hole, and at a certain point it seemed like the most creatively aggressive thing I could do would just be to rubber-band all the way back to the most bare-bones type of songwriting I could muster. Leaning into the songwriter thing was almost like a conceptual exercise. So I guess the quotes are because I didn’t expect to make my in-character singer-songwriter album and have a bunch of people go, ‘singer-songwriter Nate Amos.’ That took a little while to get used to.”
