Music| @Netflix Offers Official Trailer For @Kanyewest New Documentary ‘JEEN-YUHS’

The recently 2022 Sundance Film Festival premiered documentary ‘JEEN-YUHS’ is a three-part docu-series that walks us through the journey of becoming Kanye West, which is set to showcase on Netflix in February.

Netflix just revealed the trilogy’s latest official trailer showcasing some vintage clips of the creative icon-in-the-making, in his beginning years. The trailer starts off with a video from 2002 where the one that now goes by Ye is hanging out with hip hop artist Rhymefest in New York, the latter of which questions why West should deem himself a genius. Within the one minute clip, we also get a glimpse at old bits of the DONDA artist in the studio with Pharrell and Jay-Z, a small snippet of him recovering from his life-changing 2002 car accident, performances on stage, his iconic moment with Kid Cudi at the Yeezy Season 3/The Life of Pablo listening party and more.

“It was like God saying “I’m about to hand you the world, just know at any given time I could take it away from you”, West states towards the latter half of the video, likely referring to the humility and gratitude that he received following the aforementioned car crash.

Be on the lookout for JEEN-YUHS to release exclusively on Netflix come February 16.

Art| @TristanEaton Gears Up G.E.M.M.A NFT Launch

Hailing from Socal is a artist who has become a buzz-worthy in the growing NFT space and is preparing an exciting NFT project. Gearing up for his January 12th launch is hypnotic art designer Tristan Eaton. Eaton is presenting a series of works dubbed G.E.M.M.A, which follows up his recent NFT release called EMMA.

G.E.M.M.A (which stands for Generative Electronic Museum of Metaverse Art) is a mix of Eaton’s photorealistic art with collaborative software designing a interactive series of his past works. On the 12th, followers will have a chance at the 5,000 piece collection priced at 0.1 ETH. To accommodate this release, Eaton has added the fashionable and intriguing fake cereal boxes and brilliantly decided to mesh the real world with the metaverse by placing these custom boxes in five major city grocery stores.

In a statement, Eaton noted:

“For every painting I make, I normally start with the simple portrait. I then assemble a giant pile of visuals into layered, storytelling collages. From this stage, the painting can go in a million different directions. In real life, I will only see one of these many possibilities realized into a final work of art. The result is the equivalent of a painted puzzle, with each image, color and collage element doing it’s work to create a unique, one of a kind composition. With G.E.M.M.A., I can now see what happens when those thousands of other possibilities are realized. It’s like witnessing a multiverse for paintings. This project will live on for a long time with many surprises and bonuses for those who join the Generative Electronic Museum of Metaverse Art!”

Art| @ArtBasel 2021 Gathers An Amazing Lineup At @PaceGallery

The renowned art festival known as Art Basel continues their world tour for 2021 with their next stop underway. Visitors will get a chance to embrace pieces from heavy hitters, from Pablo Picasso and Ellsworth Kelly, to Alexander Calder and Latifa Echakhch. We detail some of the highlighted designs below.

 Located at Pace Gallery, viewers will catch Jeff Koons‘ Gazing Ball (Veronese The Wedding at Cana), 2015–2021, a painting that continues on the artist’s “Gazing Ball” series, which pays respects to the legends of art history. In this painting, Koons has referenced Paolo Veronese‘s 16th Century masterpiece, The Wedding at Cana (1562–1563).

The original is housed in Paris’ Louvre museum and recounts the biblical tale of how Christ miraculously turned water into wine. As the central figure in the painting, Christ looks directly at the viewer — unphased by the opulence and bustle that surrounds him. Koons adds a distinct point of emphasis to Christ’s already central position, by adding an electric blue orb that reflects both the colors of the painting, along with that of the viewer themselves — leading to a dynamic interplay that allows one to participate within the dialogue of past and present. -HB

Visiting Pace’s collection from artist such as  Robert Longo, Loie Hollowell and Yoshitomo Nara. A full artist-list for Art Basel 2021 @ Pace Gallery can be seen here. Art Basel 2021 is now on view online and in-person.

Music| @BiancaImanMusic Unveils Her Angelic Single “EXODUS” & Lyric Video

With her vocals set on ‘angelic’ and wordplay geared towards ‘enticing’, Bianca Iman delivers a fantastic new single for her awaiting fan-base. The New Jersey songstress is gearing up for the next chapter in her music career and developing a defined sound, which can be identified in “EXODUS”. Sonic-ally satisfying, EXODUS is a calm declaration of frustration in a situation that is leaving Bianca drained. Lost in her love for the many positive traits from her lover, Bianca goes on to detail how she has consistently put forth an effort that is not reciprocated. 

The revelation signified in EXODUS by Bianca is one of being under-appreciated while steadily serving up true love. The Waresdanny production is palatable to the properly placed witty-wordplay from Bianca. Her writing for this song is one example of her lyrical growth and overall development as a true crooner and R&B sensation. This record is enticing from start to finish, filled with charisma, passion and poise. Bianca vocally performs like a veteran in this music industry knowing when to reach and when to resolve her cadence.

Adding to her release build-up, Bianca has also accompanied this single release with a lyric video. Cleverly playing off the biblical theme of the Exodus story of Moses and the Egyptians, a cartoon version of Bianca Iman can be seen in the midst of the parted ocean waters. Symbolic to the tyranny of those ancient times, Bianca’s character is yearning to be set free.
