Here Are (Some Of) The Best Artist Shirts Available Now
2025 has been a good year for music – not just for the various standout releases we've been blessed with like Little Simz'sLotus, Kevin Absract'sBlushand Jim Legxacy's recentblack british music,but for the conversations sparked at cultural intersections from Kendrick'shalftime showto Beyonce's best album double at theGrammys, too. We've seen Clipse get back to together anddebuta song at Louis Vuitton's Paris Fashion Week show, instant-classic Tiny Desk Concerts from the likes ofDoechiiandBad Bunny, andVybz Kartelis back like he never left. As artists continue to adapt to an ever-evolving industry while navigating the rise of AI, unfavorable streaming contracts and other challenges, tried-and-true revenue streams are making a comeback – namely, tours and merch. In an increasingly digital era, artists and fans alike want a better connection to each other and tangible experiences and merchandise carry more weight than ever. FromBritney x BalenciagaandIce Spice x Mercedes-Benz, to label-made official merch from the likes of UMG'sBravado, it's a good time to be a fan. Because let's be honest, anyone can hit 'Follow' – but are you even a fan if you don't have the t-shirt?! We've rounded up some of favorite pieces of band merch – check them out below in alphabetical order now. Shéyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph's – aka21 Savage– Wikipedia page describes him as a 'British rapper based in the United States.' But while the rapper might have been born in London, he was most definitely ATL-raised – and just in case you needed a reminder, the merch for hisAmerican Dream Tourincludes a t-shirt emblazoned with the Stars and Stripes behind a portrait of the artist staring you Aminé's13 Months of Sunshineliterally sounded like summertime – and it's that same sentiment that guides the album's solo graphic offering. 'Spring, Aminé, Fall, Winter' lands in black, all-caps lettering on a white tee and white tank-top, with a special edition landing for the rapper's one-night-only Brooklyn performance earlier this summer; that one includes an additional graphic on the backside to commemorate the Bad Bunnyis on a roll. His 30-night Puerto Rico residency is projected togenerate over $200 million USDin economic impact – and the accompanying merch is pretty cool The best part aboutBillie Eilish'smerch is that each piece looks like something the singer would actually wear. Eilish loves an oversized jersey, so the leadHit Me Hard And Softdelivery – a silver-hued football jersey – is perfect. Design wise, Eilish's face fronts the jersey, with additional patch-like graphics on the arms and her signatureblohshicon on the back. Another notable piece from the album's merch drop is the layered tour tee, complete with a camouflage long-sleeve underneath a black graphic tee with the tour's dates listed on the backside. (By the way, while we're talking Billie, checkthisout.)Shophere. Blink 182have been rocking since 1992, but found mainstream success in the early 2000s with their catchy pop-punk sound, irreverent humor, and era-defining anthems like 'All the Small Things' and 'What's My Age Again?'. Even if you aren't the biggest Blink fan, there's a good chance you know a word or two from one of their songs – like the eternally relatable line 'work sucks, I know' from their1999 hit single ATSM(sorry, boss… if you're reading this). Well, now you can get it on a t-shirt! And if you consider yourself an OG fan of the band, they've released a tee with the album art from 1995'sCheshire Cat(arguably one of their best).Shophere. Salmon was the color of choice forBon Iver'sSABLE, fABLE, engulfing the album cover and appearing in all of the project's promotional material, static visuals, and external collaborations. Since an all-salmon shirt might be a bit much for some, Justin Vernon made the color a bit more subtle in the album's lead merch, focusing instead on the best part of the album: his lyricism. There is a salmon-colored outline of Vernon in the middle of the long-sleeve T-shirt, but the highlight of the design is the lyrics 'There's a Rythmn' scribbled on the arms and down the Oops… he did it again. With his final collection for Balenciaga,Denma Gvasaliachanneled his inner '90s with this oversized Britney t-shirt. Is there anything more 2025 than aBritney Spears and Balenciagacollab?Shophere. This wasn't something we saw coming, but we're here for it. Thethree-way collabbetween hip-hop OGs Parappa the Rapper and De La Soul, together with Japanese brand WIND AND SEA, has resulted in some of the most wearable band merch we've seen. The collection is quite large – with everything from jackets to pants – but a stand-out for is this long-sleece Death Row Recordsneeds no introduction. Suge Knight's former label – nowownedby Snoop – is behind some of the most iconic rap records of the 1990s, including several of Tupac's. Perfect for fans of the label – past or While unfortunately sold out at the moment onDoechii'sofficial site, we had to include theAlligator Bites Never Healrugby tee, which features an album crest on the chest and an alligator graphic on the back. As one of the fan favorite cuts on the project, 'Denial Is A River' gets its own garment. On the front is a grid of the end clip of the music video with the production information listed underneath; the back aptly reads 'CAMERA CREW' in all It's been four years sinceDMXdied, but the New Yorker impact on East Coast hip-hop will be felt forever. Show your appreciation for the roughest Ryder with this In another unexpected partnership, Ice Spice and Mercedes-Benzlinked upas part of the German car giant's 'Class of Creators' program. From an iced-out CLA to a selection of tees and jerseys, these three pieces stood out for Jamiroquai'scelebrating the 20th anniversary of his iconic albumDynamitethis year. The car-obsessed Londoner is keeping it simple with the merch, though: together the Jamiroquai logo, his unmistakable 'Buffalo Man' character graces an all-black t-shirt and a zip-up The Buick GNX has been a key motif throughoutKendrick Lamar'sGNXalbum as well as its accompanying Grand National Tour with SZA. This theme is instilled more literally in the tour's graphic tees, one of which takes a retro feel with a graffiti-esque GNX graphic and 'Gloria' on top. Elsewhere, a mechanic's work shirt is emulated with 'Gloria Auto Repair and Auto Body Inc.' on one side of the chest and a vintage patch on the other. Additional retro lettering lands on the back of the pastel blue silhouette, Kevin Abstract'ssharp creative direction extends all the way to his graphic tees – and while we don't yet have merch forBlush, we do have quite the selection fromBlanketas well as a standout cobalt blueARIZONA BABYtee. Some ofBlanket's graphics take cues from the tracklist, while others feature the Texas flag (in homage to Abstract's Houston hometown.)Shophere. Kid Cudi'sINSANOvisuals all reveled in vibrant hues, and the accompanying merch followed suit. No stranger to design and creative direction, it's clear Cudi's merch comes from no amateur, with theINSANOgo-around carried by a pair of bright blue and pink crewnecks, imbued with a colorful face graphic in the middle atopINSANOin lime green and lyrics printed along the sleeves and Lil Wayne'ssixthThe Carteralbum dropped in June, along with a world-exclusive merchpop-up in London.

In 2010, the Library of Congress selectedDear Mamafor preservation in the National Recording Registry, making one of his then already most iconic and emotionally resonant tracks a permanent part of U.S. history. In the song, Tupac raps honestly about his mother's problems with drugs – 'And even as a crack fiend, Mama, You always was a black queen, Mama, I finally understand, For a woman it ain't easy tryin' to raise a man' – lyrics that have become cultural touchstones.

This common mistake could be attracting bees to your hummingbird feeder, but it's easy to fix
Hummingbirds love to dive in and devour the sticky sugar and water nectar in hummingbird feeders. But, while these beautiful birds feed, there's another insect that wants to take a snack. Bees also love this sweet treat as it mimics the natural nectar found in flowers, and just like it does with hummingbirds, it provides them with a rich source of energy. While the occasional bee won't be an issue, if a swarm arrives, the hummingbirds will be deterred from feeding and will seek their food source elsewhere. However, there is a way to discourage bees from feeding on your hummingbird nectar by simply making one change to your hummingbird nectar recipe. While the standard recipe includes sugar and water, the key is changing the ratio of ingredients. Dan DeBaun, bird blogger at Dan's Bird Bites, told Tom's Guide that the ideal hummingbird nectar contains one part table sugar with four parts water. And to make the nectar, you don't need to use boiling water, as long as it's hot enough to dissolve the sugar and left to cool to room temperature before adding to your feeder. But to keep the bees at bay, there's a simple change you can make to your nectar recipe by changing the sugar-to-water ratio. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. All it takes is changing the ratio to one part sugar to five parts water. This easy adjustment will dilute the sugar and make it less attractive to bees, while still encouraging hummingbirds to feed. This smart hummingbird feeder provides a safe space for the birds to feed. You can capture video and photos of the tiny backyard creatures and it's all powered by solar energy. The Bird Buddy app then uses Ai to identify hummingbirds and other species, with real-time alerts. However, if this isn't enough to deter the bees from your hummingbird feeder, there are other tactics you can employ. Birds & Blooms suggests planting pollinator-friendly plants near your feeder to encourage the bees to dive into the plants rather than the feeder. Meanwhile, Home Sweet Bees recommends using a red hummingbird feeder without yellow in the design, as yellow is a big draw to bees, but they are less attracted to the color red than hummingbirds. Home Sweet Bees also suggests placing a decoy feeder in another location and filling it with a stronger sugar solution than you would use for your hummingbird nectar. The bees will be enticed by the sweeter nectar and leave your hummingbirds to feed alone. Follow Tom's Guide on Google News to get our up-to-date news, how-tos, and reviews in your feeds.

Beyond The Gates Recap: Kat Lies to Her Father About Tricking Eva
Beyond The Gates Recap: Kat Lies to Her Father About Tricking Eva originally appeared on Daytime Confidential. On today's Beyond The Gates recap: Orphey Gene's: June is freaking out about seeing Regina. Jacob tries to deescalate the situation, and both sisters get teary eyed. June sees the picture of her children on Regina's phone and wonders where she got it. She grabs Regina's phone and begins to break down. Regina says the picture is June's and they had the picture taken together. June says it never happened and she simply found the picture. Regina is stunned June doesn't recognize her own children. Naomi apologizes thinking June was told too much too soon. June insists her sister is lying to her as she has no children. Regina can't believe June abandoned her children and wonders where in the world they could possibly be. June asks for everyone to leave her alone and walks out. Regina thinks Naomi is wasting her time as she has tried for years with her sister. She was done when she left those babies all alone. Naomi wonders what happened in her life to put her in this position. Regina is finished and asks not to be called again. Andre's Pad: Ashley is thrilled by Andre bringing Paris to her. He says they are going to pretend they are in Paris for the evening. This evening, they will be dancing in a Parisian dance club. He kicks things off with champagne and pops the cork. They toast to Ashley saying yes to the desires of her heart. Ashley says she loves not knowing what comes next in her life. She loved Derek but he was offering her the opposite. Ashley doesn't want to discount what's right in front of her. The two enjoy dinner and then a dance. Joey's Gambling Pit: Joey thinks Vanessa looks amazing who is only there to talk business. Vanessa says he was outbid for a property which pisses him off. She thinks it's best to walk away from the deal as she is looking out for both of them. Joey reluctantly agrees and then asks to double the money being funneled through her business. Vanessa doesn't quite know what to say when Joey says they have each other's backs (Girl, he will throw you under the bus the first time he gets). Just then, a tipsy Doug arrives and says he is ready to gamble. He sees Vanessa with Joey and then takes a seat to play his hand. Vanessa is furious as Doug said he would stop gambling. Joey motions for the dealer to leave and he does quickly. Vanessa says they can't afford to go into debt again. Doug goes OFF saying every dollar he spends at the casino will get funneled through his wife's company because she and Joey are in bed together… figuratively, of course. Joey wants Doug to head out but he still wants to play a round of cards. That being said, Doug knows he's as likely to play cards tonight as he is to see under his wife's dress. With that, Joey throws him against the wall and tells him to get gone. (I'm so curious where folks stand with Doug. He was rude, but I'm not mad). Hotel – Ted's Room: Ted writes Eva a check and she promises to pay everything back. Ted has questions about something else and mentions Leslie's words about the accreditation issues being Kat's doing. Eva says she should have done her due diligence despite Kat's actions. She says she is trying to let go of Kat's actions to make peace. Eva asks her father to let it go. Ted says Kat has crossed a line for the last time. Leslie's Apartment: Leslie looks through designer fashion choices and says she has to buy everything she sees. Eva arrives and is pissed off about Leslie outing Kat. She wonders how her mother knew and Leslie says she just figured it out and there should be consequences to her actions. Eva just wants to make peace but her mother says they are just getting started. Eva needs to lock in and get ready for the battle and eventually get ready to move into the #1 daughter's seat. Eva plays with her mother who thinks Ted turned her down. She goes OFF before Eva pulls out the check. Eva wishes her mother would learn to trust her as she is good on her own. Leslie gets fresh and asks if she could ask for more next time as she has needs and dreams. Eva thought her mother needed money for the basic necessities. She says she does but also wants to invest in her future. Eva and Leslie get snarky with one another before parting ways. Fairmont Country Club: Kat rolls her eyes when she sees Tomas' call. He wants to hook up with some takeout from Orphey Gene's, but she says she's about to work out. He asks to meet up later and pushes until she agrees. Just then, she gets a text from her father. Orphey Gene's: Eva arrives to see Tomas (Ooooh, he double booked?). He says he didn't reveal anything she said to Kat. Eva realizes their last encounter was good (wait til you hear the details, Eva!) and says she is happy for Tomas. He apologizes for what almost went down between them and thanks her for putting on the brakes. He says he wasn't playing games and if he wasn't in love with her sister… Those words stop and stun Eva. After he hems and haws, she realizes he and Kat did the deed. With that, she tells him to go find Kat and wishes him a good night. Afterwards, she begins to break down. Hotel – Ted's Room: Kat arrives and says she can't stay long. Ted goes in about her vendetta against Eva. Kat counters saying Leslie and Eva are trying to ruin their lives. Ted asks about tricking Eva into missing the accreditation deadline. Kat is all kinds of evasive until her father calls her 'Katherine.' Kat says if Eva misunderstood it's on her. Ted simply asks her to steer clear of her sister (Did y'all hear her call Eva a nepo baby with a straight face?). She never admits anything and makes a quick exit. Previous Beyond The Gates Recap: Endings Joey asks his goon to put a tracker on Doug's car. Andre and Ashley get very close and she gets all kinds of uncomfortable.
