Bryan Adams Releases ''The Ballad of Terry Fox'' Ahead of Documentary Premiere

Bryan Adams has been feeling pretty patriotic, lately. After having released ''51st State'', a tongue-in-cheek clapback at Donald Trump's comments, the Canadian rock star released “The Ballad of Terry Fox” Thursday, a tribute to the athlete whose 1980 Marathon of Hope became one of the most important moments in the country’s history. The song arrives alongside a music video directed by Sean Menard, whose upcoming documentary Run Terry Run explores Fox’s journey and legacy.

Adams recalls being 20 and touring Canada in small clubs when Fox began his cross-country run. He remembers following the story as Fox made his way through the country, including his stop near Thunder Bay on Sept. 1, 1980.

Even if you never want to reveal your age, some B’days are milestones worth celebrating. Beyoncé is set to commemorate the 20th anniversary of her second solo album, B’Day, on Sept. 4, the singer’s actual 45th birthday.

The reissue expands the original 10-song track list (overlooking the hidden tracks) to a 27-song celebration that includes the album’s B sides, Spanish-language versions of songs, and the recently released “Morning Dew (Donk).” Physical copies will be available on CD and a four-LP edition, pressed to “bayou blue” vinyl that includes a 60-page booklet and two prints priced at two cents shy of $150. Abridged two-discs versions come cheaper. Full details are on the artist’s webstore.

Lil Durk Trial: Jurors See Unreleased ‘Redman’ Video, Defense Calls It ‘Expression of Art’

An unreleased music video filmed by Grammy-winning rapper Lil Durk was shown to jurors at his Los Angeles murder-for-hire trial Wednesday, with prosecutors claiming it was evidence of a revenge motive and defense lawyer Brian Steel dismissing it as creative speech by a “grief-stricken” poet.

“It was an expression of art that never got released,” Steel said in a courtroom in downtown Los Angeles. The lawyer known for defending high-profile clients including Young Thug and Sean Combs called Banks the “type of genius” who paints “pictures with words” through his music.
