Tyler, the Creator Celebrates 10 Years of 'Cherry Bomb' With New Golf Wang Collaboration
Summary Tyler, the Creator's beloved albumCherry Bombis celebrating its 10-year anniversary with a newGolf Wangcollaboration. The artist officially teased the new collection on Instagram, which features apparel with his typical bold colors and signature playful aesthetic. The collection, which includes crewneck sweaters and hoodies, is centered on the album's iconic masked, animated character aka Chur Bum, that originated as a mascot for the Golfilicious gum concept. The pieces come in vibrant hues of pink, green, and blue, a nod to the album's colorful and at times, chaotic sound. The collection also includes a special vinyl reissue of the album. When it was released in 2015,Cherry Bombwas a transitional album for Tyler, the Creator. It marked a sharp departure from his earlier sound, with its raw, distorted production and wild stylistic shifts. While it was initially met with a mixed and divisive reception, the album is now seen as the key link between his Odd Future era and the more introspective, genre-blending work that would earn him critical acclaim and Grammy Awards. The album's 'organized chaos' became a key part of his artistic identity, laying the groundwork for the sounds and themes he would explore onFlower BoyandIGOR. The album also cemented his status as a creative polymath, as he not only produced the album but also created a documentary about its making, showcasing his vision beyond music. TheCherry Bomb10-year collection will be available for early access to fans on the GOLF WANG app on Friday, August 22, at 8 a.m. PT.

Popular app hikes prices as Aussies face $240 a year blow: 'Just binned'
Spotify and Netflix are hiking prices again, with Australians now forking out hundreds of dollars more for once budget-friendly streaming services. Another round of price rises has been enough for under-pressure subscribers to walk away from the services. Spotify announced its latest round of price hikes to customers via email this week, noting the increase was needed so it could 'continue to innovate on our product offerings and features and bring users the best experience'. Spotify Premium subscriptions will increase from $13.99 to $15.99 a month for individual plans and $23.99 to $27.99 a month for family plans from September. As Yahoo's Tom Flanagan wrote today, the latest Spotify hike has him asking if it's time to pull the plug on one of his many subscriptions. RELATED Westpac reveals common habit costing Aussies $600 each year Centrelink cash boost for more than five million to hit bank accounts in weeks Drakes Supermarket boss defends controversial Centrelink stance after worker shortage "While the supermarkets cop the worst of the anger from Aussies, it seems just about everyone is trying to squeeze an extra dollar or two out of us at a time people are having to keep a really close eye on their budgets," he said. Netflix announced the cost increase of its three subscription tiers last week. A standard plan with ads will jump from $7.99 to $9.99 per month, standard plans without ads will rise from $18.99 to $20.99 per month, and premium plans will go from $24.99 to $28.99 per month. Kayo Sports also raised the price of its standard tier from $25 to $30 a month in June, while Stan Sport increased from $15 to $20 a month in July. The majority of Australians have at least one streaming service and pay about $50 a month for the pleasure, according to Finder personal finance expert Taylor Blackburn told Yahoo Finance the combined cost of the most popular services had increased by $17, or an 11 per cent jump, between March and August. 'It's definitely worth giving your subscriptions a health check. If you have four subscriptions, you could easily be paying $20 more a month with these changes – or $240 more per year,' Blackburn said. Finder analysis found you would be paying $1,087 per year if you subscribed to the top eight TV streaming services — HBO Max, Netflix, Stan, Disney+, Prime Video, Binge, Paramount Plus, Apple TV and Hayu. Aussies cancel subscriptions due to cost The average Aussie is spending $47 a month on streaming services, Finder found. Millennials are spending the most at $52, followed by Gen X at $46, Baby Boomers at $44 and Gen Z at $43. The comparison site found 27 per cent of Aussies had cancelled one or more services in 2023 due to the price. Aussies have complained about the recent Spotify and Netflix price hikes online, with some saying it was "time to unsubscribe". "Yep just binned Netflix off. The rest will soon follow I think," one wrote. "I now FIFO Netflix, it's not good enough to warrant an annual subscription. We might pay for a month every 5 months and binge anything we wanted to watch," another said. "Drop them. It's too expensive," another added. How can I save on subscription costs? It could definitely be worth taking a closer look at your subscriptions, with recent Westpac data revealing three in 10 Aussies were losing up to $600 a year on duplicate services and apps they don't use. 'With any subscription – especially gym – don't think monthly, think annually. That $25 per week you barely think about is actually $1,300 a year,' Blackburn told Yahoo Finance. 'Putting that same amount into an investment or savings account could mean thousands by the time you retire.' Of course, you don't have to completely ditch streaming services, and there are ways to be savvy about it. 'Don't forget you can switch streaming subscriptions off when you're not using them,' Blackburn said. 'You know you are putting money back in your pocket when you turn one off and you might be surprised how little you miss it.' You could also cycle through your subscriptions so that you're only signed up to one service at a time based on what you want to watch that in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data

Outside Lands' biggest performer just canceled three festival appearances
Fans who caught Doechii 's electrifying Outside Lands performance in San Francisco earlier this month lucked out, because the rapper will not be hitting the stage again any time soon. The Grammy-winning singer abruptly canceled three European appearances on Monday, Aug. 18. She was scheduled to perform at France's Rock en Seine on Thursday, Aug. 21; All Points East in London on Saturday, Aug. 23; and Bristol's Forwards Festival on Sunday, Aug. 24. While each festival issued its own statement on social media, none of them provided a reason for the Florida native's absence. The 'Anxiety' hitmaker herself has not yet made any comments about the cancellations. Doechii's only other appearance since wowing festivalgoers at Outside Lands was at Pukkelpop in Belgium on Sunday, Aug. 17. Doechii's School of Hip-Hop spectacle at Golden Gate Park show drew tens of thousands of fans — a noticeably larger crowd than Doja Cat, whose headlining set followed on the first day of the festival. The highly-choreographed production featured songs from her 2024 EP 'Alligator Bites Never Heal' in addition to a handful of singles such as 'Alter Ego.' While many of her European fans won't get to see her live this summer, the Bay Area will have one more opportunity to witness the hip-hop artist in action this fall. She is scheduled to bring her Live From the Swamp Tour to San Francisco's Bill Graham Civic Auditorium on Nov. 7. All 12 scheduled shows on her tour are sold out.
