WAITING IN THE SKY VINYL LP FOR RSD 2024 “He’d like to come and meet us...” To mark what would have been David Bowie’s 77th birthday, Parlophone Records are proud to announce the release of a very special David Bowie limited vinyl LP, WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) which will be released on 20th April, 2024 for Record Store Day. Keep reading for the full press release. #BowieRSD #RSD2024 #BowieWaitingInTheSky + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + DAVID BOWIE WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) LIMITED 11-TRACK VINYL ALBUM RELEASED EXCLUSIVELY FOR RECORD STORE DAY 20th APRIL, 2024 Parlophone Records are proud to announce the release of a very special David Bowie limited vinyl LP, WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) which will be released on 20th April, 2024 for Record Store Day. The album is taken from the Trident Studios 1/4” stereo tapes dated 15th December, 1971, which were created for the then provisional tracklisting for what would become THE RISE AND FALL OF ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS album. The tracklisting for WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) runs differently from the ZIGGY STARDUST album and features four songs that didn’t make the final album. On Side 1, in the place of ‘STARMAN’, one of the last three tracks recorded for the album in February 1972, is ‘ROUND AND ROUND’, a Chuck Berry cover. The track was finally released on a single as the B-side to ‘DRIVE-IN SATURDAY’ on 6th April, 1973. Initially, closing Side 1 of the album was Bowie's version of Jacques Brel’s ‘AMSTERDAM’, which would later appear as the B-side of ‘SORROW’ on 12th October, 1973. Side 2 of the 15th December, 1971 tracklisting features two long-time non-LP fan favourites, ‘HOLY HOLY’ and ‘VELVET GOLDMINE’. The former is a re-recording with The Spiders of David’s 1971 single. Again, this version of the track had to wait several years before surfacing as the B-side of ‘DIAMOND DOGS’ on 14th June, 1974. ‘VELVET GOLDMINE’ is considered by many to be a lost Ziggy era classic, one Bowie often referred to as ‘He’s A Goldmine’ or ‘She’s A Goldmine’ in his notebooks and interviews. The track was recorded during the Ziggy sessions but was not released until 26th September, 1975, alongside ‘CHANGES’ backing the re-released album version of ‘SPACE ODDITY’, which peaked at no. 1 in the U.K. singles chart in November 1975. The cover of WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) features a photo of David taken at an early Ziggy Stardust period session by Brian Ward, and the two sides of the inner bags are the fronts of the two Trident Studios tape boxes. The album’s title comes from the lyrics of ‘STARMAN’, which, along with ‘ROCK ’N’ ROLL SUICIDE’ and ‘SUFFRAGETTE CITY’, had not yet been recorded when this variation of the album was compiled. WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH) was cut on a customised late Neumann VMS80 lathe with fully recapped electronics from 192kHz restored masters of the original Trident Studios master tapes, with no additional processing on transfer. The half-speed vinyl cut was by engineer John Webber at AIR Studios, London.

The Duchess of Sussex has said that wearing tights to conform to the Royal family’s dress code made her feel “inauthentic”.😵‍💫 "The Duchess said that when she had to be away from her children for the Queen's funeral she was not ok.."😵‍💫 Meghan left the RF it will be 6 years in a couple of Months. The Queen has been dead for 3 years. Why are tights from 6 years ago and a funeral from 3 years ago the topic of a podcast in the last week of August 2025?🤡 Is it because the RF closed their doors and will never welcome her back? Or Is it because her second part of her cooking show that dropped today is flopping so bad, it is being skewered once again by the critics?😏 Why is Meghan today on a podcast talking about events from 6 years and 3 years ago? Because my dear, Meghan's future is already in her past. Her present is in her past. Her "best" came and went🔥 She is the definition of a "Has-Been". That is why she sounds like a broken record stuck on the same track song. She lost what she wanted the most: Life among Royalty. Now all she can do at 45 years old to massage her ego, is sit amidst other c-list hollywood celebrities to reminisce about those "18 Glorious months" she spent cosplaying Royalty; because as the saying goes: "Among the Blind, the one eyed man is King".🤷🏽‍♀️ Let me illustrate how stagnant Meghan has been: When Meg left the RF, Prince George was a 6 year old boy and Meg was crying about the RF on interviews and podcasts. Today Prince George is a 12 year old teen who is already learning to Pilot Helicopters per the Reports. Meg is still sitting on interviews and podcasts crying about the RF😂🤣😭

🧵 ASAP Rocky vs Drake — A DEEPER LOOK (Receipts, Not Revisionism) ASAP Rocky recently went on The Joe Budden Podcast and claimed the reason he dissed Drake on “Stole My Flow” and other songs on the (Don’t Be Dumb) project is because Drake has been “taking shots at him for years” while he stayed silent. That narrative doesn’t hold up when you look at the full history. This has been back and forth tension for nearly half a decade, with Rocky repeatedly firing first musically, visually, and symbolically and Drake responding in kind. 📌 The Real Starting Point (2021) •May 2021: ASAP Rocky & Rihanna confirm their relationship in GQ •June 2021: Rocky previews “D.M.B (Dat’s My B*tch)” in a Klarna ad •Extended version leaks shortly after •The intro and bars clearly frame Rihanna as a “prize won,” widely interpreted as a Drake sub •Video rollout goes viral with Rihanna as the love interest, doubling down on the flex September 3, 2021 •Drake drops Certified Lover Boy •Multiple bars are read as indirect responses to Rocky’s rollout September 13, 2021 •ASAP Rocky & Rihanna attend the Met Gala •Rocky wears a quilted blanket outfit, which many saw as a calculated visual jab toward Drake 2022 •Pregnancy announcement 4 months later first child is born •8 days later, Rocky officially drops the D.M.B video, once again starring Rihanna •Drake responds months later on Her Loss, continuing the subliminal exchange 📌 Escalation Era (2023) •Rihanna performs at the Super Bowl, visibly pregnant again •Shortly after: •ASAP Rocky previews “Stole My Flow” at Rolling Loud •The clip goes viral immediately •Rocky then drops “Riot”, another track interpreted as a Drake jab Drake Responds •October 6, 2023: Drake releases For All The Dogs •Tracks like “Fear of Heights” and “Another Late Night” contain clear subs •Drake even trolls Rocky’s Rolling Loud appearance by wearing colorful hair clips, mirroring Rocky’s look Rocky’s Counter •Puma x F1 partnership rollout featuring Rocky and Rihanna •Rocky positions himself as a fashion forward mogul while taking subtle cultural shots 📌 Diss Cycle Goes Public (2024) •Rocky jumps on Future & Metro Boomin’s Drake diss project •Track: “Show of Hands” •Drake fires back on “Family Matters”: “Rakim talkin’ shit again…” •Drake follows with 100 Gigs for Your Head Top •Rocky responds with “Tailor Swif” and “Hijack” •Drake answers again with: •No Face •SOD •Circadian Rhythm •Rocky doubles down with another Puma F1 campaign, leaning into optics instead of direct records 📌 Optics, Timing & Strategy (2025) •Rolling Loud: Rocky performs multiple Drake sub tracks like Helicopter •Met Gala 2025: •ASAP & Rihanna announce another pregnancy • Rocky does late night appearance with Anna wintour on Seth meyers •Rihanna drops a Smurfs soundtrack song produced by the same producer behind Drake’s “Nokia” •Lyrics hint at déjà vu 👀 Drake’s Response •Headlines Wireless Festival solo •Sends an unspoken message: I don’t need Rolling Loud or a stacked lineup •July 4, 2025: Drake drops “What Did I Miss?” •Same day: Rocky drops “Pray4DaGang” •July 25, 2025: Drake drops “Which One” viewed as a Rihanna centered response 📌 The Album Delay & Final Drop (2026) •Rocky teases Don’t Be Dumb for nearly three years •Avoids direct release windows where Drake might step on the moment •January 2026: •Rocky finally drops the album •Includes the same Drake diss tracks previewed years earlier •Then goes on podcasts claiming Drake dissed him “out of nowhere” 🎯 Final Take This wasn’t: ❌ sudden ❌ unprovoked ❌ one sided It was: ✔️ long term ✔️ strategic ✔️ mutually escalated ASAP Rocky has been sending shots through music, fashion, relationships, timing, and optics. Drake has been responding consistently and directly. That’s hip hop Trying to reframe it as“I stayed quiet and Drake attacked me”

[SBS News] BTS V's self-composed song 'Into the Sun'... appears in G7 Summit welcome video The song "Into the Sun," co-written and composed by BTS V, is garnering attention after being used in a video related to the G7 Summit. On the 16th (local time), French President Emmanuel Macron released a video on his official social media welcoming the leaders attending the G7 Summit held in Evian, France. The video featured the leaders of each country appearing one by one, with music symbolizing their respective national images and cultures used as background music. In particular, BTS's "Into the Sun" played during the scene featuring President Lee Jae-myung, drawing significant attention. The National, a prominent English-language media outlet in the Middle East, reported that President Macron selected music tailored to the nationality, culture, and image of each world leader. According to the report, BTS's "Into the Sun" was used for South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's video; Tom Petty's "Love Is a Long Road" for U.S. President Donald Trump; the James Bond theme song "The World Is Not Enough" for British Prime Minister Keir Starmer; and Celine Dion's "Jueire Ou Tou Ira" for Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. "Into the Sun" is a track from BTS's studio album *Arirang*, with V participating in the main songwriting and composition. It is known that V completed the song based on a melody that came to him on his way back from a workout. He previously stated regarding the song, "Although it is a song I created, I thought I needed to make a cold, objective judgment on whether it fit the album," but it was ultimately included due to the active recommendations of the other members. Following the release of 'Arirang,' 'Into the Sun' received favorable reviews from major international media outlets. The U.S. daily newspaper The New York Times described it as "a hypnotic song that puts the mind at ease," while the music magazine Rolling Stone noted that "the falsetto harmonies and sparkling tempo demonstrate BTS's infinite potential." The BBC in the UK also introduced the track as "an experimental yet intriguing song that adds a mysterious atmosphere through digital effects." (Article: #BTSV #INTOTHESUN #ARIRANG

(TW). Tomorrow (September 10th) is World Suicide Prevention Day. On the 16th, it will be 7 years since I was admitted to hospital for the first time. I was 16, had just started sixth form, and the years of anxiety and OCD became too much. I didn’t think I had a future. I was wrong. Some things I would like you reading this to know: ⭐️ the future holds an infinite number of possibilities. it might seem terrifying, but so many good memories are waiting to be made. ⭐️ you won’t feel like this forever. our emotions fluctuate. our perspective on situations shift. our thoughts come and go. no matter how long you feel you have been ‘stuck’, there is always hope, as long as you are here. ⭐️ you are not a failure. everyone is on their own timeline in life, with their own end goals. comparing yourself to others doesn’t help, because everyone’s lives are too different to compare and we only see a portion of other people’s lives. ⭐️ you WILL be okay. you can cope with far more than you think you can. ⭐️ i know the pain is hard. if I could take it away in a heartbeat, i would. it won’t be there forever. it might come back for a little while, but it will go away again. just as the sun always rises again after night. ⭐️ future you is grateful you keep fighting and is rooting for you. Where to access support/help (in the UK): ✨ @GiveUsAShout: crisis text support ✨ Samaritans: 24/7 phone line ✨ The Mix: essential support for under 25’s ✨ @PAPYRUS_Charity: for under 35s experiencing suicidal thoughts ✨ NHS England: you can self-refer to NHS talking therapies online ✨ Mind: local groups offering support/advice ✨ Kooth Digital Health: online well-being and confidential support for young people in certain areas of UK ✨ there are different organisations for different conditions/experiences such as @OCDUK, Voice Collective, Charity No Panic, Anxiety UK, Beat, SANE | Changing mental health for good etc. You are worth fighting for. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #suicideprevention #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthrecovery #suicidepreventionmonth #autism #ADHD #anxiety #OCD #youmatter

Until Huda Aqqad, the caring daughter of Khan Younis, and her sweet elderly mother, Aisha, are found, the rage in all our hearts must not rest, not fade, and not be buried! How cruel, just why? Two and a half years ago, soldiers from Golani’s 12th Battalion kidnapped a 78-year-old elderly mother and her daughter after shooting the elderly father with special needs dead in the yard of their home. Their family declared them dead after loosing all contact. Then months later the kidnappers, Lt. Ido Meir, the platoon commander of the unit, appeared with his subordinates, Sergeants Dolev Mor Yosef and Amit Yaakov, inside an armored vehicle, weapons pointed at the two women! The IDF refused completely to answer WHERE they were released, WHEN, or HOW. The Israeli Prison Service says it never had them in its prisons. JUST TELL US where they are. If you killed them where are the bodies! Where are they? Sky News and Alex Crawford did an amazing investigative job here, alongside GLAN | Global Legal Action Network exposing the circumstances of the killing and identifying the kidnappers. Watch it and imagine it happened to you. Zakaria, their brother, has also disappeared from the face of the earth. According to testimonies, he was clinging to his mother at the last minutes. Both of whom disappeared! Multiple officers from the battalion have spewed genocidal language to Israeli media Here are two examples: On January 23, 2024, one day after concluding their deployment in Khan Younis, Israel’s Channel 13 aired an interview conducted by correspondent Aviad Glickman featuring commanders from the 12th Battalion, including deputy battalion commander Major Amitai Avitan. At the first words of the interview, Major Avitan stated twice before pausing, taking a breath, and leaning back: “There are no uninvolved people here [in Gaza]. There are no uninvolved people here.

I mean you do have a very good point, however I hope you can understand where I come from. (Sorry I’m advance for the long tweet back) This is exactly what I use to do when I was their age. We didn’t have the luxury of an independent scene we do now and even if we did I was 14 years old, I was only allowed to go to a training school to learn the basics. But I had an enormous passion for the business & if I wasn’t allowed to work shows I’d do it myself. - and I’d argue that because of this I had a head start on a lot of the people I trained with when I finally turned 18 From there I’ve been lucky enough to have the support of friends, peers & fans to push me into what I am today. The fact I’ve still had that same style for now 17 years and this is my first surgery, I think I’ve looked after my body. Think about it 17 years this is my first major injury. You think this is stupid, I would say it’s equally as stupid as to fall off a scaffolding breaking both your legs. And while I’m sure there’s a few people that wished you landed on your head, I for one hope you’re doing well & not in too much pain from your injury. But to me, it showed the care that you have for the industry at that time. I see myself in these guys that are finding any outlet to do what they love. Their bumps are solid & basing is great. Like I said I understand there is a level of danger doing this so I hope none of them get hurt but I can’t help but root for these guys and hope I one day see them in a ring. Once again sorry for the long arse tweet and hope the message finds you well boss.

here we go again. It’s a pretty common theme to attack me and discredit everything I do, regardless of what I share to prove otherwise. Why? Because it gains traction for all the influencers. i wanted to address the “paper trading” allegations on X, but before i do i want to point out that the ones capitalizing on the engagement are the same ones who have flip flopped their narrative on me again and again. the same people saying i’m a paper trader suddenly decide my trading is real when im losing or in drawdown. whatever positioning gets them the most engagement is the narrative they run with. I’ve been trading for 11 years now and have a longer track record than most in this space. If you go back and watch my YouTube videos you’ll see my broker statements presented. I can appreciate healthy skepticism and will continue to show the statements to those it benefits. Now let’s address the paper trading allegation. A video is floating around that I posted where you see “paper trading” on my screen. Yes, I had paper trading open. But why is the first assumption that I’m a paper trader? Am I not allowed to open paper trading? If I do, I’m immediately a paper trader? That window was open because I tell everyone in my community to paper trade first and I walk them through how to do it. See the attached video that I recorded for my community where you can clearly see paper trading open while I’m walking them through TradingView paper trading. Now let’s assume I’m lying about that and people still want to call me a paper trader simply because I had paper trading open while teaching my community. That would mean I don’t trade real money and that I’m not profitable. Well I’ve posted my broker statements for the last four years, all on YouTube. See attached. Let’s also address my recent trade where I made $18k. When I posted it, people on X said it was fake and that it was paper trading because of certain settings. Here is the attached order ID number for that trade. I’m up $57k this year so far and I’ve stopped sharing trades and updates with the trading community because regardless of whether I share or not, people will continue to come at me because it gets views. All items are attached below. I’ll make a YouTube video soon to address this as well. But give it a break at this point.

A lot going on. So first let me make the announcement that despite the DOJ and FBI deliberately stonewalling me for 5 years, I have retrieved (most of) my property that was wrongfully seized after January 6. It's mostly in disrepair, but I'll address that later. Today I had business to take care of in Congress. Framed as a domestic terrorist and insurrectionist after January 6, when I was only a comedian who peacefully picketed, I returned today to Congress in the wrinkled and torn suit the feds kept from me - ever the satirist. They should have just left me the fuck alone. Now with only a fraction of the property I had no access to before my trial, I can prove that FBI agents and vindictive prosecutors maliciously misrepresented my character and my motivations, wrongfully robbing me of years of freedom for questioning their regime, but again I'll address that later. I remember the names and faces of every person that worked to destroy me. Every single one. They're burned into my memory. I am not like most people. The more you fuck with me the longer I am willing to wait for justice to come to you. I have superhuman patience. I endured years of torment through nothing but faith and sheer tyranny of will. Judges, prosecutors, jailhouse snitches, backstabbers, reporters - I have survived all of their attempts to smear me, break me, and silence me. But I will be the one to write the history of January 6 and its aftermath, and their names will only be footnotes. If you were entrapped by the feds too on that fateful day, keep your chin up, because the torment we've endured must be documented for posterity and the people who did this to us need to be brought to justice. That can only happen if you stay in the fight. Every dirtbag that smeared you in the press needs to be confronted for publishing lies. Every informant, agent, prosecutor and judge who betrayed, entrapped, incarcerated, and dehumanized you needs to be named and removed from any influence they have in public life. The system will try to move on from January 6 and the humanitarian disaster it caused to thousands of Americans. If we all keep pushing back, the system will still keep trying to ignore us, sure. But if you don't push back it is a 100% certainty that your surrender will be gratefully accepted and nothing will change. I know we are all different. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, I will never stop demanding justice while I walk this earth. I don't care what party controls Congress or the White House. Until J6ers are made whole again, and government weaponization ends, the fight goes on.

SCOTUS stripped federal judges of their power to block presidential policies nationwide. 2.⁠ ⁠Ted Cruz said the Supreme Court’s recent ruling will stop “rogue left-wing judges who had been issuing injunction after injunction after injunction, trying to stop President Trump from carrying out the mandate of the voters.” 3.⁠ Iran held funeral ceremonies attended by President Masoud Pezeshkian for military commanders and nuclear scientists killed during the 12-day conflict with Israel. 4.⁠ During its defense of Israel, the U.S. launched 60 to 80 THAAD interceptors, burning through 15–20% of its global inventory in less than 2 weeks. Each interceptor costs $12–15 million, putting the total price tag between $810 million and $1.2 billion. 5.⁠ New satellite images show Iran wasting no time at Fordow - bulldozers and excavators are back in action, digging around bomb craters left by U.S. bunker-busters. Meanwhile, one of the tunnel entrances at the Isfahan nuclear site has reportedly been reopened. 6.⁠ Trump torched Canada over its decision to impose digital taxes on U.S companies: “Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately. We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next 7-day period.” 7.⁠ Republicans just released the newly updated ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ that includes Trump's key tax cuts and immigration funding.

We don’t want to see that again.” 9.⁠ Hungarian PM Viktor Orban claimed NATO membership for Ukraine would trigger an immediate war with Russia. He called the EU’s push to admit Ukraine ‘insanity’: “This isn’t diplomacy - it’s throwing matches on a powder keg.” 10.⁠ Tesla successfully completed the world’s first autonomous car delivery. The car drove itself from Gigafactory Texas to the owner's home 30 minutes away, crossing highways and city streets without any problems. An incredible achievement as Elon marks his 54th birthday today.

Kazakhstan, believed to be birthplace of apple and also thought to be land where man first tamed wild horse. Alan Outram, a British archaeologist from University of Exeter, stated that his research team had discovered evidence that pushed back earliest signs of widespread riding and milking of horses by 1000 to 2000 years from previous estimates. The excavated remains of horses from Botai region of northern Kazakhstan. Radiocarbon dating established that these remains were around 5,500 years old – a period far earlier than Old Kingdom of Egypt or ancient Sumerian culture of Mesopotamia and even before the Mohenjo-Daro civilization of modern Pakistan. Teeth of these small steppe horses showed unmistakable evidence of having been subjected to bits – an indication that they were used either for riding or pulling carts. They also found broken pieces of pottery used by Botai culture that still contained elements of fat from horses and their milk. This was clear evidence that steppe horses were already being used at this early date to provide both meat and milk – substances which remain prized in Kazakh cuisine and culture today. Researchers also found that horse bones they excavated were slender – a sure sign throughout history of domesticated and carefully bred horses, not of wild ones that had not been subjected to controlled and selective breeding. Outram’s discoveries are also consistent with a wider emerging body of evidence that many of key developments in human civilization and agriculture took place across vast steppes of heartland of Asia, and not just in river valleys of Middle East and southern and Eastern Asia, as archaeologists for so long assumed. Archaeologists have discovered evidence of towns and therefore of urban civilization, in territories of modern Kazakhstan far earlier than experts previously assumed. This uncovered that horse was domesticated in Asian steppes at least 3100 to 3600 years ago in Botai region – a period of time parallel with New Kingdom of Egypt and Minoan Empire of ancient Crete. Early findings uncovered primitive tools for working leather that suggested, first, that cattle were being domesticated to provide leather and hides and, second, that leather was being worked to make harnesses that could only have been used on horses, not cattle. Outram team was surprised by amount of confirmation they actually uncovered and, most of all, by the far earlier dates that their data belonged to. New finds also suggest that traditional practices of ancient Kazakh tribes – eating meat of their horses and drinking their milk as well as using them for transportation – go back thousands of years to the dawn of civilization. They also suggest that spirit of innovation and technology in ancient history did not come only from towns and densely populated river valley cultures on rims of Africa and Asia, but also from heart of “grass ocean” of steppe. Though larger world’s discovery of Kazakhstan’s early domestication of horse is recent, Kazakh scholars have long argued that their homeland was origin of taming of horse. Location, climatic and environmental demands of steppe life would have logically focused the ingenuity and expertise of its people in this direction as essential skills to their survival. Latest findings confirm these long held local beliefs. Popularity and significance of horse in Kazakh culture today remains strong. New hippodromes or racetracks have opened in Almaty, nation’s largest city and in Kazakhstan’s new capital Astana. Equestrian sports centers have sprung up and horse trekking in nation’s national parks and mountains are popular pastimes. Kazakhstan has emerged from mists of history as both the most modern and ancient of nations along fabled Silk Road. And its long-cherished equestrian culture has now revealed to have provided a giant gallop forward for human progress. 🎥© adilet_rakhmetolla (IG) © National Geographic Magazine #archaeohistories
