12/23/2017 Good Charlottes Lil Peep Tribute“Through your art you will live forever” Good Charlotte has shared a studio recording of Lil Peep's "Awful Things," available for streaming now. And along with sharing the track, the band penned a heartfelt message about Lil Peep's life and lasting legacy. "Every now and then a new artist comes along, who you know is sure to change music. Lil Peep was one of those artists." The band covered Peep's song earlier this month at Lil Peep's special fan memorial service, and Good Charlotte's Joel Madden says they were happy to be a part of the memorial and show their love for Peep, fans, family, and his friends. “They asked us if we wanted to do something to participate in the memorial. We were overseas on tour in the U.K., so we put together that cover. It was kind of crazy - we put it together, recorded it, filmed it, all in a matter of two or three days. We just wanted to do something to be a part of the memorial and show our love to Peep and his fans and his family and his friends. To be there in spirit and to be there musically. We were just really happy we could put it together in time and be a part of it. It was as special for us as anything we've ever done.” Visit https://websiteni.blogspot.com/2017/12/good-charlottes-lil-peep-tribute.html to see the music video; read Good Charlotte's heartfelt message and the full article. via Blogger Good Charlottes Lil Peep Tribute 12/20/2017 Linkin Park 3 Platinum Records in 2017Linkin Park has three more records go platinum in 2017Linkin Park have received three new platinum certifications by the RIAA on 13th December 2017.The 2014 album The Hunting Party has gone both gold and platinum, while "Numb," from 2003's Meteora, and Jay-Z collaboration "Numb"/"Encore" have been certified 4x and 3x multi-platinum, respectively.

As reported by The Washington Post, the FBI's Juggalo gang label "could be here to stay." The paper notes that the 6th U.S. Circuit Court Of Appeals, in a strange statement of legalese, ruled that the FBI's move to call Juggalos a gang wasn't a "final agency action" and, therefore, can't be challenged in court. Um, what? This new ruling nixes a 2014 lawsuit brought by Insane Clown Posse that claimed the FBI's decision violated their constitutional rights and caused Insane Clown Posse concert cancellations due to concerns from law enforcement. All of this stems from the FBI's National Gang Intelligence Center listing the Juggalos as "a loosely organized hybrid gang" in a 2011 threat assessment profile, a definition that's been haunting the band ever since. Insane Clown Posse says the FBI's labeling of Juggalos as a gang has caused their supporters an unnecessary and extreme amount of trouble. According to the group, fans of Insane Clown Posse have lost their children in custody battles, been denied admittance for military service and lost jobs for merely being a Juggalo. Earlier this year, Insane Clown Posse brought national attention to the matter with the Juggalo March On Washington, an event that organized Juggalos in a protest on the National Mall in Washington DC, to voice their opposition to the FBI labeling them a gang for simply identifying with the group and their music. In September, Insane Clown Posse's Shaggy 2 Dope spoke to us ahead of the group's march on Washington, admitting the unlikelihood of the FBI overturning the gang designation while standing firm against the classification. "It'd be great, but the chances of that happening are slim to none," Shaggy said. "This is just us standing up, the Juggalos standing up and being, like, 'Yo, f*** you, too. We're in this b***h and we ain't a f***ing gang.'" via Blogger Insane Clown Posse fight against the FBI 12/16/2017 Linkin Park Wins Fuses Top 40LINKIN PARK'S 'ONE MORE LIGHT' WINS FUSE'S TOP 40, NAMED NO. 1 VIDEO OF 2017Numbers don't lie — six poll rounds and millions of votes later, fans crown Linkin Park's emotional "One More Light" video the top music video of 2017 Another year, another Fuse Top 40 champion!
