When Liz Phair released 'Soberish' this June, it ended an 11-year hiatus between studio albums. “It’s weird to come back and participate in the promotional cycle, and have the business changed so much,” says the songwriter, 54. “And then adding Covid to that has been . . . the word ‘zany’ just came to mind.” ⁠
⁠
She’d hardly been vacationing in the decade since 2010’s 'Funstyle,' though. In just the past few years, she’s put out a massive box-set reissue of her classic 1993 debut, 'Exile in Guyville'; published her memoir, 'Horror Stories'; and continued her work as a television composer. Those experiences and more informed her writing on 'Soberish,' which sees her contemplating how to take the edge off of life while staying ahead of the curve.⁠

In the wake of Rolling Stone’s cover-story package on the world’s biggest band, the new episode of the 'Rolling Stone Music Now' podcast zooms in on the unique rise of BTS. Youngdae Kim, Seoul-based music critic, musicologist, and author of the book 'BTS The Review: A Comprehensive Look at the Music of BTS,' joins host Brian Hiatt for the episode. They dig deep into BTS’ history and musical evolution, exploring how the group became the first musicians from South Korea (or anywhere in Asia) to score three number one singles in the U.S. (“Dynamite,” “Life Goes On,” and “Butter”) among many other singular accomplishments.⁠

One year ago, Anita ‘Lady A’ White entered an unexpected battle when the country trio formerly known as Lady Antebellum announced they’d change their name to Lady A. She's still looking for justice.⁠
⁠
While the band and White had amicable conversations in the days following Rolling Stone breaking the news, the two parties couldn’t reach an agreement on the name’s use. The band had previously registered a trademark to the name, while White’s claiming common law ownership given her use of the name for nearly 30 years. The band would file a lawsuit against White in Tennessee asking for legal documentation verifying their rights to the name alongside White, who herself feels she shouldn’t have to share the name that was already hers. White later filed a countersuit of her own in Washington. The court denied White’s request to dismiss the band’s suit, and proceedings will begin in Tennessee if the two parties cannot settle by next year.⁠
⁠
“They get to make their music, tour as ‘Lady A’ and get to continue to use that name without any regard to hurting my brand,” she says. “I said it was going to happen and now I feel myself getting erased.”⁠
⁠
With Friday marking one year since the band changed their name, White spoke with Rolling Stone about performative activism, continued racial injustice and why she won’t back down on her claim for the name anytime soon.⁠

Nine-member K-pop group Twice (@twicetagram) has come a long way since their days of sweeping the rookie awards five to six years ago in Korea and is now continuously met with success as a top girl group globally. Now they’re back for the summer with their 10th mini-album, Taste of Love, featuring Latin-themed, bossa nova title track “Alcohol-Free.” 

In April, Rolling Stone met with Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu in Anseong, a quiet city 50 miles south of Seoul, Korea. While sitting together in a traditional Korean hanok to chat “Alcohol-Free,” the band members reflected on how Twice has grown over the past six years.

On June 4, Nigeria’s federal government indefinitely suspended Twitter in the country — ironically announcing the action on the platform itself. In a tweet thread, the Ministry of Information and Culture cited “the persistent use of the platform for activities that are capable of undermining Nigeria’s corporate existence,” as the motivation for the ban. The reality of it appears much more insidious. On June 2, the site deleted a tweet by Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari condemning a recent string of attacks on public infrastructure in the country’s southeast region. In the tweet, he evoked Nigeria’s gruesome civil war between Biafran separatists in the east and the military. The conflict ended in 1970 after an estimated three million people, primarily of the Igbo ethnic group, were killed. Buhari — who fought in the army against Biafran secessionists — promised to “treat them in the language they understand,” which many Nigerian Twitter users flagged for its threatening nature. ⁠
⁠
Twitter has been an invaluable tool for internet-savvy Nigerians to shed light on the abuses they face from the country’s government. Last fall, a mass movement against police brutality and for better governance took off in the country where roughly 40% of people live below both national and international poverty lines. The reckoning was dubbed #EndSARS as it coalesced around the violence towards and exploitation of young people in particular at the hands of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigerian police. Through social media platforms like Twitter, Nigerians and allies all over the world mobilized major protests. The physical movement fizzled out after, according to eyewitnesses, Nigerian security forces barricaded and shot at protestors at the Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos. A number of protesters were reportedly killed, injured, or disappeared that night.⁠

As their music becomes increasingly celebrated, young people in Nigeria face a political crisis. Two artists, Joeboy and King Perryy, speak out. Tap the link in our bio to read more.⁠

The days of coordinating criminal activity by beeper and pay phone are long gone. In the twenty-first century, many crime syndicates rely on hardened encrypted devices to discuss their illicit activities. These devices can only be bought from a black-market dealer and can’t make calls or surf the web. Their only job is to send encrypted messages with other users on the same network while staying, crucially, out of sight of law enforcement.⁠
⁠
Unbeknownst to such actors, however, the FBI has been distributing thousands of its own hardened encrypted devices around the world for the past few years. By collecting and unencrypting messages, the feds were able to catalogue millions of illicit chats in a massive global sting operation.⁠
⁠
On Tuesday, global law enforcement officials revealed details of Operation Trojan Shield, which involved the FBI partnering with the Australian Federal Police, Europol, and other agencies across 17 countries to monitor the devices. Since late 2019, users had been discussing everything from how to conceal cocaine in pineapples to fees for collecting contraband dropped overboard from a ship, not realizing all their messages were being unencrypted and stored by the feds. The operation culminated in the arrests of more than 500 people in a two-day span, before the FBI ended it on Monday. Here’s how it went down.⁠

The United States became a net oil exporter in 2020 — marking the first time in the 70 years the government has tracked the trade in petroleum that America shipped more oil abroad than it imported. This sea change, highlighted this week by the Department of Energy, marks America’s emergence as a petroleum superpower at just the moment when new leadership in the White House is attempting to convince the world to transition away from fossil fuels to curb runaway global warming.⁠
