Rolling Stone Partners With Super Products to Release Jimi Hendrix(TM) Keepsake Collectible Trading Card Series
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / May 14, 2025 / Rolling Stone and Super Products Inc., in collaboration with the Authentic Hendrix, LLC proudly announce the launch of an exclusive, first-of-its-kind high-end trading card set honoring Jimi Hendrix's transformative impact on music, style and cultural history. The 2025 Rolling Stone Jimi Hendrix™ Keepsake Premiere Edition celebrates Hendrix's enduring legacy through a unique collectible card offering.
The inaugural trading card set will pay tribute to Jimi Hendrix's iconic February 1, 1969, Rolling Stone cover, which recognized him as "Performer of the Year." Each card will showcase rare, striking photography of Hendrix, offering collectors an exceptional way to honor one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Designed with incredible attention to detail, the cards feature authentic gemstones and precious metals such as diamonds, gold, rubies and platinum. Arriving in a luxury wooden display box, the set seamlessly merges artistry with an elegant presentation worthy of Hendrix's legacy.
"When Jimi picked up his guitar or composed amazing songs, he wasn't setting out to become a super star! He wanted to bring something beautiful to the world-to leave a lasting impression," said Janie Hendrix, President & CEO of Authentic Hendrix. "Being featured on the cover of such a respected brand as Rolling Stone was mind-blowing and we are excited to commemorate that event in Jimi's life. We are equally thrilled to partner with Rolling Stone and Super Products to introduce a legacy collection of beautifully artistic cards that will be celebrated and valued for years to come."
Fans and collectors alike will appreciate the craftsmanship and exclusivity of the collection, which consists of 200 unique cards. Each card is numbered and produced in extremely limited quantities, with no more than 15 copies of any card design. Adding an element of excitement to the collecting experience, the cards are blind wrapped. The approach invites fans to trade and explore as they work towards completing the full set or hunting for their favorite designs.
This 200-card set features six unique versions for each card-Rainbow (15), Swirl (10), Ice (10), Sheen (10), Fireworks (5), and the ultra-rare Vinyl (1)-offering collectors a dynamic and highly collectible series.
"Partnering with Super Products allows us to honor Hendrix's groundbreaking creative contributions and launch a new category of Rolling Stone collectibles designed to echo the ethos of the brand and resonate with music fans around the world," said Thomas Ferguson, VP, Licensing, Partnerships & Consumer Products, Penske Media Brand Group.

‘Total discrimination': Chinese students facing US visa ban say their lives are in limbo
Chinese students in the United States are questioning their future in the country after the state department announced last week that it would 'aggressively' revoke visas for Chinese students and enhance scrutiny of future applications from China and Hong Kong. Chinese students hoping to study at Harvard, the US's oldest and wealthiest university, are under particular pressure after the Trump administration announced on Wednesday that it was banning the school from enrolling new foreign students. The presidential proclamation cited Harvard's links with China as a particular cause for concern. Related: 'They are in shock': Indian students fear Trump has ended their American dream For Jerry*, a 22-year-old applied mathematics student at the University of California, Los Angeles, the uncertainty started last month, when the Trump administration suddenly halted Harvard University's ability to enrol any international students. Jerry has a place on a health data science masters programme at Harvard, which is due to start in the autumn. The US government's attempt to ban Harvard from accepting international students appears to have been blocked, at least temporarily, by the courts. But Trump's announcement on Wednesday invokes a different legal authority. Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, has announced that the authorities will be targeting Chinese students specifically, nationwide. It is 'total discrimination,' Jerry said. 'I don't think anyone would consider that reason sufficient. That's just pushing Chinese students to go elsewhere'. Unsure about whether or not he will be able to enrol at Harvard, Jerry is considering taking up a place on a DPhil (PhD) programme at Oxford University in the UK. He said on Thursday that following Trump's latest attack on Harvard, Oxford seems like an even more likely option. Although he hopes to study at Harvard, Jerry feels lucky to have a back-up plan. 'A lot of the people who accepted Harvard offers don't have other options. So it must be much more anxious for them'. Across the US, universities have been scrambling to find ways to reassure the hundreds of thousands of Chinese students on their campuses about their academic future. In a memo sent to Chinese students at University of Oregon, the school described the state department's announcement about revoking the visas for Chinese students as 'vague' and said: 'A revoked passport does not impact your legal status in the US because it is only an entry document used when entering the US'. However, the university warned that a revoked visa could lead to removal proceedings by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE). Warning about being targeted by ICE have taken on a new gravity since the agency started targeting international students with the lawful right to remain in the country. They include Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University graduate and pro-Palestine activist who was detained despite holding a green card to reside in the US. Khalil is now fighting a deportation order. Steven*, a 34-year-old Chinese PhD student at the University of Oregon, said that although he is not planning to apply for a new student visa soon, the prospect of an encounter with ICE concerned him. 'Nowadays, even if you have a green card, you have legitimate status, you could get caught by ICE, because these guys are crazy'. Steven has been in the US for a decade. In that time, the US has become a less attractive destination for Chinese students, he said, something he sees borne out in his part-time job helping Chinese students with their college applications. The numbers wanting to study in the US have declined, with people favouring countries in South-east Asia, such as Singapore, which are more culturally similar to China. The US is 'just not that friendly' any more, Steven says. The loss of top Chinese students in the US would be a blow to academic research, and to the funding for higher education institutions, experts say. In the 2023-2024 academic year, there were about 277,400 Chinese students in the US, according to government statistics. That is a 25% drop compared to 2019-2020. 'By barring Chinese students and scholars from America, the Trump administration will strangle the pipeline of high-end talent into our universities, companies, and research institutes, sparking a serious deficit in talent and expertise that will damage American competitiveness,' said Denis Simon, non-resident fellow at the Quincy Institute, who specialises in science and technology policy in China. The state department's announcement last week specified that students with connections to the Chinese Communist party (CCP) or studying in 'critical fields' would be included in the visa crackdown. For years, the US has tried to root out Chinese espionage in academia, with concerns raised about CCP-backed programmes to recruit top talent in science and technology fields that are strategically important to China. But academics and campaigners say that this has bled over into racism, with all Chinese researchers or those of Chinese heritage being treated with suspicion. Jerry, the mathematics student, said he has experienced discrimination in the US, but not on campus. But if Chinese researchers, staff and PhD students feel they have to leave the US because of an increasingly hostile environment, 'it's going to be a disaster for American universities,' he said. *Names have been changed Additional research by Lillian Yang

Trump Says Xi to Restart Rare Earth Flows, Sets Date for Talks
(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump said his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping had agreed to restart the flow of rare-earth materials, as negotiators from the two nations prepare to resume trade talks on June 9 in London. Next Stop: Rancho Cucamonga! ICE Moves to DNA-Test Families Targeted for Deportation with New Contract Where Public Transit Systems Are Bouncing Back Around the World US Housing Agency Vulnerable to Fraud After DOGE Cuts, Documents Warn Trump Said He Fired the National Portrait Gallery Director. She's Still There. The developments come as the world's two largest economies look to resolve a simmering dispute over tariffs and technology that has unnerved markets. Trump and Xi held a 90-minute call on Thursday that saw the two agree to defuse growing tensions spurred by concerns over the flow of critical minerals needed by American firms. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer are set to meet Monday 'with Representatives of China, with reference to the Trade Deal,' Trump said Friday on social media. 'The meeting should go very well.' Earlier talks between the two countries in Switzerland in May resulted in a tariff truce between Beijing and Washington that set the stage for further discussions on trade. But negotiations between the rivals stalled after the Geneva meeting, with both sides accusing the other of violating the agreement that brought down duties from massive highs. The US expressed concerns over the lack of rare-earth magnets essential for American electric vehicles and defense systems, while China bristled at fresh US restrictions on artificial intelligence chips from Huawei Technologies Co., as well as other advanced technologies and crackdowns on foreign students in the US. Asked Friday if Xi had agreed to restart the flow of rare-earth minerals and magnets, Trump told reporters on Air Force One: 'Yes he did.' China also approved temporary export licenses to critical mineral suppliers to major US automakers, Reuters reported earlier. But questions remain about what Trump conceded to Xi in their call, which the US president had eagerly sought. The Chinese Foreign Ministry in a statement said that Trump told Xi Chinese students are welcome to study in the US, and Trump later said it would be his 'honor' to welcome them. The call between Trump and Xi generated some hope on Wall Street for lower duties between the US and China, although investor optimism was limited, citing the lack of details on key matters and the thorny issues that await negotiators. The inclusion of Lutnick in the new round of talks may signal that Trump is willing to reconsider some of the technology curbs that threaten to hobble China's long-term growth ambitions.

Miley Cyrus Says Disney Stopped Her From Singing ‘Hannah Montana' Songs, ‘Not Like I Wanted To'
Disney prevented Miley Cyrus from performing songs from Hannah Montana after the show ended in 2011. But she said in a new interview with The Ringer podcast, 'It's not like I wanted to.' She explained: 'Performing 'The Best of Both Worlds' between 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball' wouldn't have really made sense,' she said. The TV series, which propelled Cyrus to stardom as a pop star who hid her true identity from fans so she could live a normal life, ran from 2006 to 2011. During that time, five Hannah Montana soundtrack albums came out, as well as one live record and two remix albums. She also released three solo albums on Disney's Hollywood label* before switching to RCA and releasing Bangerz, home to 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball,' in 2013. Around that time, she sexualized her performances more, twerking with Robin Thicke at the 2013 VMAs. So, apparently, Disney decided she could enjoy the best of only one world. More from Rolling Stone 'Phineas and Ferb' Sticks to What Works in a Welcome Return Miley Cyrus, Lorde, Haim, and All the Songs You Need to Know This Week Miley Cyrus Aims High With Her Latest Artistic Swerve Even though Cyrus didn't want to sing her Disney-era songs, she felt ambivalent about the injunction. 'It was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them,' she said. As of last year, though, both worlds have opened back up to Cyrus. She was named a Disney Legend in a 2024 ceremony, where she apologized to the Mouse in Chief. 'I definitely wasn't created in a lab, and if I was, there must've been a bug in the system which caused me to malfunction somewhere between the years of 2013 and '16,' she said at the time, according to Deadline. 'Sorry, Mickey.' So now, the singer, who is now 32, told The Ringer, it could be back on for her Hannah Montana persona (if she wanted to go that way): 'After being inducted as a Disney Legend, I was given permission to perform those songs in the future, which is pretty cool,' she said. * The Disney ban must not have applied to the Hollywood albums, though, since 'Party in the U.S.A.,' off Cyrus' The Time of Our Lives EP in 2009, is the song Cyrus has performed live the most times in her life, as recent as 2022.
