  • Martin Garrix Talks, Usher, Ed Sheeran Collabs -- Singing On Tracks?

    Martin Garrix has become one of the biggest stars in EDM, and he has not even been on this earth for a full two decades yet. The "Tremor" producer has a busy summer festival ahead of him with gigs at events like Creamfields, Mysteryland, Digital Dreams, Ultra Europe and more. Even with a demanding touring schedule that would be required of someone his status, he has still found the time to work some other artists like Ed Sheeran and Usher. In a recent interview with the Digital Spy, he talked about those collaborations and whether or not you will hear him sing on any of his tracks.

  • Where Next For Third Man Records? Our Predictions: London, Austin and...Malta?

    Jack White has always had his hometown Detroit's back, whether that means building baseball fields, paying off the debts of the local Masonic temple or—in this case—opening a new location for his Third Man Records. The rocker made headlines all over the nation yesterday when he announced that his label would be opening a new retail store (with office space) in Michigan, expanding from its current headquarters in Nashville. It got us at Music Times wondering, where is he likely to expand to next? Here are five cities that may be the next place to open a Third Man Records location (hint: New York City ain't one of them. White noted recently that he dislikes the city strongly).

  • 5 Incredible Transgender Musicians: Wendy Carlos, Antony, Laura Jane Grace and More

    The world has been fixed on Caitlyn Jenner this week, after the former Olympic champion and current Keeping Up With The Kardashians star revealed her new feminine identity on the cover of Vanity Fair this week. News that might have provoked shock in recent years, and even months, was greeted largely with acceptance and praise. Hopefully this will help usher in a new era where transgender individuals will be acknowledged simply as human beings. Music Times hopes to help by saluting musicians such as these, who are far more notable for the music they produce than the gender they represent.

  • A$AP Rocky No. 1 on Billboard 200 Again; Boosie BadAzz, Hillsong United Follow

    Another hip-hop performer takes the top spot on the Billboard 200 with a surprise album as A$AP Rocky and At.Long.Last.A$AP debuts with 146,000 equivalent units in its first week. That may seem like more than his last album, Long.Live.A$AP (which also debuted at no. 1), however that album opened with 139,000 actual copies sold, while the new Billboard metrics also take single downloads and streams into consideration. In that light, A.L.L.A. only sold 117,000 copies. Of course, week two could also be strong due to the surprise nature of the release.
