Did You Hear?

:: It’s no surprise that Furious 7 became an international smash both at the box office and on the music charts (we’re still wiping our tears while listening to “See You Again”), but who knew the film would be the fifth highest-grossing one of all time! Furious 7 has surpassed the almost cult-like Frozen, and has earned $1.32 billion!

:: Musical legend David Bowie plans to re-release his hit tune, “Fame,” for its 40th anniversary. The track (co-written by John Lennon) will now be reissued as a limited-edition picture disc on July 24, along with an alternate mix of “Right” — which is also off the Young Americans LP. [NME]

:: Out of all of the musicians turning their back on TidalGrimes is one of the few (not invested in the company, of course) to defend the streaming service. The singer, who is fittingly managed by Jay Z’s Roc Nation, stated in a since-deleted Instagram post: “People have characterized tidal negatively but I promise it’s 100% artist friendly, and fan friendly since yall have the option to pay the same rate as other streaming respect to everyone involved for doing the right thing for struggling artists – this kind of thing is so important, especially for indie music!” [The FADER]

:: In other news, Nas is gearing up for a new album for us to bump this summer! The rapper made the announcement over the weekend during a club appearance in Orlando, FL. [Rap-Up]
