Colleen Green tells us about her new album 'Cool,' growing up, and how she's made peace with social media. ⁠
⁠
“It’s a pretty universal gripe,” Green, 36, says over the phone from her home in Lowell, Massachusetts. “I would much rather live my life in a way that I think is noble. And if it means that my album doesn’t sell as many copies or doesn’t get as many streams as someone else, I’m OK with that.”⁠
⁠
This laid-back attitude is all too fitting for Cool, from the album title to the cover art, which features Green sitting on the ground in a leather jacket and sunglasses like a lost member of the Velvet Underground.⁠

The supermogul Clive Davis has forged an empire of music's top-billing artists from Whitney Houston to Bruce Springsteen to Alicia Keys — and at 89 years old, he's still taking on new projects, from producing NYC's Homecoming concert to casting the upcoming Whitney Houston biopic.⁠
⁠
Houston was one of Davis's treasured artists — but in 2012, she drowned in a bathtub, hours before she was due to perform at his famous pre-Grammy gala. "I want to give everything I know about Whitney, give the true full story," says Davis now.⁠
⁠
Davis remains haunted by other major chasms in his past: "I was the victim. I was sacrificed. Everybody in the record division knew it," he says, still, decades after he was fired from record label CBS/Columbia over allegations of financial misbehavior.⁠
⁠
Why can’t the veteran hitmaker retire — or let the past go?⁠

"We have a masculinity crisis in this country where people think it's about acting tough and being loud and rigid. I think being empathetic and open and emotional, that's what being a man is about." — #TheManySaintsofNewark star @jonnybernthal.⁠

Mac Miller died three years ago today.⁠
⁠
Miller’s catalog was varied, constantly improving, and consistently rewarding. From his “EZ Mac with the cheesy rap” (a catchphrase he would come to regret, but endeared him to an early, still passionate audience) days in the late 2000s, to the harrowing and poignant release of 'Swimming,' Miller’s discography paints a portrait of an artist whose records bled with sincerity.⁠
