Clipse Drop New ‘Let God Sort Them Out' Album, Hip-Hop Fans Rejoice On X
Let God Sort Them Out , the fourth album from the Brothers Thorton, is more of the pair's usual technical flair and clear diction, with the requisite brick talk that serves as a metaphor more than anything. With longtime producer and collaborator Pharrell Williams handling the entire bulk of production, the clear-eyed vision of Push and Malice never wavers.
The album opens with 'The Birds Don't Sing,' featuring John Legend and Voices of Fire. Pusha T opens up with a moving verse depicting the passing of his mother, mentioning his young son, while also referring to his brother by his given first name. Malice continues the autobiographical bent with his verse centering on their father.
An early crowd favorite follows in 'Chains & Whips,' which was previously heard last year when the brothers teased the track during a Louis Vuitton fashion show last year. However, the surprise appearance of Kendrick Lamar solidified the excitement, and K-Dot delivers a sinister verse that may or may not be directed toward a certain Canadian superstar.
According to X, other highlights include 'P.O.V.' featuring a blistering verse from Tyler, The Creator, the previously-released 'Ace Trumpets,' and 'Inglorious Bastards' featuring their longtime partner, Ab-Liva. Nas also shows up on the track 'Chandeliers,' which appears on the tail end of the strong album title cut. Stove God Cooks, who works alongside Westside Gunn and the sprawling Griselda collective, shows up for 'F.I.C.O.,' as he's one of the top 'coke rap' stars in the game now.
We've got reactions from X to Clipse dropping their new Let God Sort Them Out project below.

Notable debuts includeMatthieu BlazyatChanelon October 6,Jonathan Andersonpresenting his firstDiorwomen's collection on October 1, andPierpaolo Piccioli'sBalenciagadebut on October 4. Other designers making their debuts in new roles include Miguel Castro Freitas atMugler, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez atLoewe,Glenn MartensforMaison Margiela's RTW, andDuran LantinkbringingJean Paul Gaultierback to the ready-to-wear schedule. As anticipation builds for these historic debuts, industry leaders are banking on refreshed perspectives to revitalize the luxury landscape. LVMHmissed analyst expectations in the first half of 2025, with net profit down 22% and overall revenue falling 4% year-over-year to €39.8 billion. Their largest division, Fashion and Leather Goods, which is home to brands likeLouis Vuitton, Dior, andLoro Piana, saw a 9% sales drop. Following a brief post-pandemic lift in performance, the group and its competitors, Kering and OTB Group, have been affected by an industry-wide drop in luxury spending. These developments ledHermèsto surpass LVMH as the most valuable luxury stock earlier this Summer. The group also faces negative publicity this year, including a labor exploitation scandal affecting Loro Piana, data breaches at Louis Vuitton, and a cultural appropriation controversy at Dior. Consumer negative reactions to price hikes and low confidence are further hindering sales, indicating the luxury slowdown may persist. Sofia Coppola, director ofPriscilla (2023), will release a documentary, 'Marc by Sofia,' focusing on fashion designerMarc Jacobsat theVenice Film Festivalin September. The 97-minute film, titled in homage to the beloved, discontinued Marc by Marc Jacobs line, will debut out of competition between August 27 and September 6. It traces Jacobs' rise in the fashion world and offers an intimate look into his decades-long creative friendship with Coppola, which began in 1992 after Jacobs' Perry Ellis grunge collection. The documentary features rare archival footage, highlighting their collaborations, from Jacobs casting Coppola in early campaigns to their work during his time at Louis Vuitton and more recently at,Heaven. Willy Chavarriahas been named the first fashion designer to become an Artist Ambassador for theAmerican Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).This first-of-its-kind ACLU partnership provides Chavarria with a prominent platform to champion crucial issues such as LGBTQ+ rights and immigrant rights. His commitment to social justice is long-standing, as evidenced by his recent SS26 Paris runway show, which actively protested immigration crackdowns and drew attention to the inhumane conditions prevalent in detention centers. 'Art, music, and fashion can have a tremendous impact on how we realize and promote social justice and human dignity. I'm happy to further utilize my own platform for the empowerment of others,' Chavarria said in a statement toWWD. Jonathan Anderson is confirmed as the costume designer forLuca Guadagnino's upcoming 'AI comedy' film,Artificial, marking their third collaboration afterChallengers(2024)andQueer(2024). The movie, loosely based on the story ofOpenAIand its CEO, Sam Altman, will explore controversies within Big Tech and the growing infiltration of AI into daily life. Anderson's previous work on Challengers earned him a Costume Designers Guild Award nomination, solidifying his prowess in cinematic styling. The film is set to starAndrew Garfield, Yura Borisov, andCooper Koch, and is currently in pre-production, with an official release date yet to be announced. Thom Brownehas opened a new store on New York City's Upper East Side, located at 898 Madison Avenue.

Breaking Down the Ending of Netflix K-Drama 'Trigger'
If Trigger were a U.S. production, the action thriller that follows a police force as they deal with an influx of guns into their city wouldn't have a very novel premise. In the U.S., where gun violence was declared a public health crisis last year, there are more guns than there are people, with an estimated 120.5 guns per every 100 people. But in South Korea, where Trigger is set, there are only 0.2 guns per every 100 people. Korean gun control laws are strict, and the weapons are practically a non-issue when it comes to public safety. While gun violence does occur, as was the case last week when a father shot his adult son using a homemade gun, it is a rarity in Korea, where private gun ownership is uncommon. According to a 2022 article in the Korea Herald, private guns are intended for shooting athletes, manufacturers and sellers of firearms, and for those who need them for construction or as props in film or TV production. Licensed hunters may apply for gun ownership, but they must go through a rigorous qualification process and are only allowed to keep their guns at home during hunting season. Other times of the year, the firearms must be stored at the local police department. Otherwise, only authorized personnel in security-related fields can be in possession of firearms, and often, police officers choose not to carry them. Trigger envisions a world where gun control laws in Korea are ignored Trigger, a Netflix K-drama from writer-director Kwon Oh-seung (Midnight), imagines what would happen if all of these regulations were ignored, and unregistered, highly deadly firearms started streaming mysteriously and rapidly into the country. Across 10 anxiety-inducing episodes, we follow police protagonist Lee Do (Island's Kim Nam-gil) as he tries to keep Korean society from falling into a panic-induced frenzy, and succumbing to a status quo where gun violence is the norm. The thriller is simultaneously a parable for Korean viewers and a mirror for American viewers, who already live in a society where buying a gun can take as few as five clicks. Who is behind the gun plot in Trigger? The guns in Trigger are being funneled into the country by the fictional International Rifle Union (IRU), a black market arms dealer with immense political and economic power globally. The person behind the plan is Moon Baek (Evilive's Kim Young-kwang). Baek stumbles upon the IRU when as a kid, looking for revenge after being trafficked from Korea to the United States for his organs. Jake, one of the organization's higher-ups, sees something valuable in the desperate, vengeful kid. He raises Baek to be a part of the organization. The IRU's entrance into Korea is facilitated by Baek, who has been diagnosed with six months to live due to cancer. While Baek presumably presents the plan to Jake as a business opportunity, he is really looking for retribution against the country that failed him. Upon his arrival in Korea, Baek murders the man who made his childhood a living hell. He hides bullets in the ceiling of the man's apartment, a signal to officials that everything in Korea is about to change. Baek uses some local gangsters, posing as regular mail couriers, to distribute the guns. He targets individuals who are marginalized for some reason or another. Many of them are physically and mentally bullied by the people in their lives. 'Everyone carries a trigger in their heart,' a psychologist says early in the show's run. Trigger implies that everyone is capable of violence, and it is the job of a functional society not to give its citizens access to a weapon that can so easily lead to violent self-destruction. Lee Do's backstory explained Lee Do serves as a counterpoint to Baek's nihilistic ruthlessness. While Do's childhood may not have been quite as horrific, he didn't have it easy. His parents and brother were killed during a home robbery when he was just a child. Immediately following the incident, Do takes a gun off of Captain Jo's (Kim Won-hae) desk and aims it at the man who killed his family, intending to pull the trigger. The captain talks him out of it, but the moment is a formative one for Do. Jo raises Do as his own, alongside his daughter. Decades later, Lee Do is the Platonic ideal of a policeman, protecting the vulnerable and preferring de-escalation to violence. Until guns start appearing amongst the civilian population, Do chooses not to use a gun himself, still haunted by the lives he took during his years as a soldier. When gun violence starts ramping up, he decides to pick up a gun once again—but only when it is necessary to take someone down. Moon Baek kills Captain Jo While Trigger has a complex cast of characters, Lee Do and Moon Baek are the protagonist and antagonist at its center. Both suffered tragedy as children. One was given the support they needed to become a happy, healthy adult. The other was not, and has grown into a ruthless killer as a result. While Lee Do wants to protect the innocent (and even the guilty) around him, Moon Baek wants to see people suffer like he has. Gun violence is his method. When Lee Do starts getting in Moon Baek's way, the criminal mastermind becomes intrigued by the stalwart cop. To get closer to him, he poses as just another recipient of one of the illegal weapons, and offers his 'help' in trying to stop various shootings. Do almost immediately identifies Baek as one of the people behind the organized influx of guns. However, when the police go to arrest Baek, he uses his immense resources to slip between their fingers and continue to wreak havoc. Captain Jo, Do's surrogate dad, becomes one of Baek's desperate targets when a jeonse fraud drives his daughter to suicide. Jo finds the men who scammed his daughter, confronting them at a karaoke room. When they show no remorse, he starts firing. Lee Do arrives on the scene once Captain Jo has followed one of the men outside. He convinces Jo to put the gun down, asking him not to let the feeling that killing the man will help fool him in this moment. 'How did you bear this pain at such a young age?' Jo asks Do. 'It was all thanks to you, Captain,' Do tells him, embracing his distraught father figure. Baek, who has orchestrated the entire scenario to drive up public anxiety around shootings and to break Do's resolve, doesn't like how the scenario ends. He comes out of the shadows to shoot both Captain Jo and Lee Do. 'Just wait and see,' Baek tells Do as he loses consciousness. 'You'll wake up to a whole new world.' The ending of Trigger explained As intended by Baek, Do is out of the action for at least a few days following the incident. When he wakes back up, he is devastated to learn that Captain Jo has died. He grieves Jo and her daughter, acting as the chief mourner at their funeral. Meanwhile, Baek has announced to the public that anyone who wants a gun in Korea can get one. Public fear is at an all-time high as thousands of weapons are delivered to the populace, and incidents of gun violence become more common as a result. On the news, political pundits begin to debate whether gun ownership should be legalized in Korea. The president is considering martial law. A 'Free Guns' rally is organized by Baek to pit the two sides of the argument against one another. Lee Do leaves the funeral in order to attend. Baek has a truck filled with boxes of weapons driven into the middle of the rally. Chaos breaks out as people frantically grab the weapons, thinking they need them to protect themselves. Baek sets off smoke bombs to further confuse the crowd. As Lee Do makes his way to Baek, he remembers a philosophical argument they had over dinner, before Do realized Baek's villainy. 'Wouldn't pulling a 5-milimeter trigger in pursuit of revenge spread fear in the minds of many?' Do told Baek. 'Out of fear that they might die without a gun, everyone will rush to get one. And a society like that will soon be destroyed.' Baek wants to create that society, and he is well on his way. 'It was this world that made the people angry,' he tells Do, making the bad faith argument. 'All I did was hand them a gun. It's up to them whether they pull the trigger.' In the smoky plaza, as scared people point guns at one another, Baek taunts Do. 'What I want is a single gun shot … that will make these people start shooting at each other' He wants Lee Do to be the one to pull the trigger. Baek disappears into the smoke and Do follows, gun drawn. Before he can find the man, a gun shot rings out. Baek has been shot, perhaps by his own hand. The plaza erupts into gunfire. In the chaos, Do sees a boy alone, crying for his mother, a gun in his hands. It is an echo of the boy he once was. Rather than defend himself, Do drops his gun and rushes to him. He embraces the child as the gunfire continues. 'It's okay. You're safe,' he tells him. The image is captured by a livestreamer on the scene. It stops nurse So-hyeon, whom we have been following throughout the series, from using a gun to kill the co-workers who bully her. Once the dust has settled, and scores of people are dead, the image of Lee Do embracing the scared child becomes a symbol of choosing empathy over violence. Later, we see the image at a memorial for the victims of the shooting. Another message at the memorial states: 'We will remember the innocent lives lost and work to create a safer world.' Does Moon Baek die at the end of Trigger? Baek is in a coma following the events of the firefight. The doctor tells Do, who visits Baek in the hospital, that he is unlikely to recover, due to his cancer and the blood loss sustained from the gunshot wound. Later, we see an English-speaking cabal of IRU members, including Jake, vaguely discussing their next business move. A woman walks into the wards where Baek is unconscious, presumably to kill him. Does Trigger have a happy ending? The ending of Trigger isn't happy, but it is hopeful. Across the country, the police hold illegal firearm drop-off drives to collect as many of the weapons as possible. One of the people who drops off a fun is nurse So-hyeon. "It took too long," she tells Officer Jang, who collects her signature. "You did the right thing,' he tells her. Lee Do survives to de-escalate another day. In an echo of what Captain Jo did for him, Do adopts the child he saved in the firefight. He picks the boy up from school, and holds his hand as he walks him home. Do is doing what he can.

Netflix just added this bloody teen horror movie based on a hit PlayStation game — and it's already crashed the top 10
Netflix just got the gory horror video game adaptation "Until Dawn," and it's immediately shot into the Top 10. Despite only being added yesterday (July 24), the "Until Dawn" movie has already laid claim to the No. 2 spot in the streaming service's charts, second only to "K-Pop Demon Hunters". Honestly, I'm kind of shocked that many people want to stream "Until Dawn" on Netflix, because it's a pretty tedious watch. Take it from me: If you really want to experience the "Until Dawn" story, this is not the way. If you've got access to a PS5, skip the movie entirely and just play the game that inspired it. I'm confident you'll have a better time. It's not just that it differs vastly from the game it's based on; it's also just a very bland horror film, one that's lacking in the thrill and chill departments. However, if seeing the movie rise through the ranks has piqued your curiosity, you can find more info about "Until Dawn" (and a round-up of what people have said about it) below, to help you decide whether to stream it or not. David F. Sandberg's "Until Dawn" adaptation follows Clover (Ella Rubin), her ex-boyfriend Max (Michael Cimino) and her friends as they retrace the steps of Clover's missing sister. The group heads to the remote valley where Melanie (Maia Mitchell) disappeared a year ago. There, they stumble upon an abandoned visitor center, where they're stalked and murdered one by one by a masked killer, slasher movie-style. Then ... they wake up. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The group finds themselves alive and forced to relive that night over and over, facing ever-more-terrifying killer threats. And when they realize they've only got a limited number of deaths left to play with, they realize the only way out will be to survive until dawn. The "Until Dawn" movie also stars Peter Stormare, Odessa A'zion, Ji-young Yoo, Belmonth Cameli, and Lotta Losten. Unless you're between horror flicks and simply must watch something featuring cheap jump-scares and gory deaths, you don't need to rush to watch "Until Dawn" if you haven't already: it is sorely lacking in comparison to the game/interactive movie it's based on. Even as someone who scares pretty easily, I found it to be a muddled, clichéd, and, frankly, dull. Aside from being impressed by the work that went into realizing some of "Until Dawn's" deaths, I was otherwise unmoved. I'm not the only person who thinks that way, either, as the "Until Dawn" movie wasn't exactly received all too well. At the time of writing it holds a 53% score on the review aggregator, Rotten Tomatoes (from a total of over 100 reviews), indicative of a mixed reception. Reviewing for Empire, Harry Stainer offered a 2/5 verdict, arguing the "Until Dawn" movie wastes its intriguing premise and labels it "undercooked," writing: "What should have been a twisty horror ride ends up feeling like it's bursting at the seams to move up a gear — but never does." The Hollywood Reporter's Lovia Gyarkye, meanwhile, called the movie "more safe than scary" and "confused" as it veers from different horror reference points, adding: "Most of Sandberg's film ends up going through the perfunctory motions of classic horror, piquing interest occasionally with a progression of impressive kills and a sharp use of practical effects." Even the more positive reactions aren't exactly glowing ones. The Guardian's Benjamin Lee offered a 3-star rating, but had this to say: "'Until Dawn' is a passable, if rather unfrightening frightener, made with some skill and enlivened by a strong troupe of young actors, enough to notch it slightly above the piss-poor standard but not quite enough to really justify its existence." That said, some viewers are at least a little warmer on the "Until Dawn" movie. It holds a 67% Popcornmeter score, and some Rotten Tomatoes users. Then again, someone else described it "as mid as it gets," so... your mileage definitely will vary. Bottom line? While some viewers have evidently gotten a kick out of "Until Dawn," it's definitely not a movie you must stream now it's on Netflix.
