Drake Kicks Off The Road To ‘ICEMAN' With Livestream, New Music Video For 'What Did I Miss?'
On Friday afternoon (July 4), the 38-year-old rapper posted a simple graphic on Instagram that read '9 PM.' Soon, music pages began to circulate that he had a new single coming out titled 'What Did I Miss?' A few minutes before it was time to hear the rumored track, a live link appeared on the five-time Grammy winner's YouTube page titled 'ICEMAN EPISODE 1.'
The live stream started late, but when it began, fans looked into an ice warehouse for about 20 minutes. For months, Drizzy had been posting images suggesting his next album would be titled ICEMAN, and this company happened to have that same name, so this stream felt like a confirmation. Eventually, the camera angles in the warehouse started changing and showed him walking through the warehouse into a break room. There, he watched old footage of himself performing on a television before the screen transitioned to him standing in his backyard with several guns pointed at him.
The beat dropped, and per the chorus, it was clear that this was the worldwide debut of his new single 'What Did I Miss?' and its music video. He rapped and danced along to the song while walking throughout the warehouse before jumping into one of the ICEMAN trucks. The cameras followed him as he drove throughout Toronto, playing a new song rumored to be titled 'Supermax,' plus a repeat of 'What Did I Miss?' and his guest appearance on Smiley's latest single '2 Mazza.' While driving through his city, he greeted and exchanged handshakes with fans.
After the live stream ended, Drake announced that 'What Did I Miss?' would be available on all streaming platforms at midnight, and, sure enough, it was. The record reflects on this past year of his career and the betrayals he's been on the wrong side of amid his beef with K. Dot. 'I don't give a f**k if you love me, I don't give a f**k if you like me/ Askin' me, 'How did it feel?' Can't say it didn't surprise me/ Last time I looked to my right, you ni**as was standing beside me/ How can some people I love hang around pu**ies who try me?' he sings in the chorus.
Also, notably at the end of the live stream, he announced, 'ICEMAN Coming Soon.' There is currently no date set for the album, but given the father of one's affinity for releasing new albums in the fall, it is safe to predict that he may follow suit here. If so, that would be another year of his career where he releases multiple albums, with the PARTYNEXTDOOR-assisted collaborative album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U coming out this past February. Time will tell, but in the meantime, check out 'What Did I Miss?' below.

SKIMS has been the future of underwear. So why did it just launch 'retro intimates'?
It's not your grandmother's underwear. Or maybe it is. SKIMS, Kim Kardashian's shapewear brand, just launched a retro collection that could be plucked right from a 1950s store rack. Or the back of your mom's mom's closet. The brand's array of "vintage-inspired" bras (sold at $60) and shapewear (for $118) debuted July 2, bringing old-timey silhouettes to 2025. Think bras with pointed cups and bandeau slips that cover and flatten the belly. While it's OK that you may enjoy the new items for their color, fit or style, it's worthwhile to explore why it matters that SKIMS, a brand known for its futuristic designs, is thinking vintage. "The pendulum has swung back and we're looking at boning, corsetry and compression," said Lorynn Divita, associate professor of apparel design and merchandising at Baylor University. These designs reverse course following the prevalence of shapeless "underboob"-revealing bralettes that overtook much of the 2010s, she said. But SKIMS is trading that rule book for structured shapes with more fabric. SKIMS declined USA TODAY's request for comment. Looking backwards or meeting the moment? While SKIMS is referencing the past, it may also be taking contemporary cues in its retro move. The collection comes amid discourse setting a tone of modesty in women's fashion: coquette milkmaid dresses are all the rage this summer, as are more covered-up options for working out. Fashion's upper echelons have been divided over pushes for modesty, from backlash over nudity at the Met Gala to an all-out ban on revealing outfits at Cannes. Most recently, Lauren Sánchez Bezos ditched "sexy" garb for a neck-high, long-sleeve Sophia Loren-inspired 1950s wedding dress. A post shared by Julia Kelly (@missjuliakelly) SKIMS' retro collection evokes the buxom, lip-lined, big-curled beauty standard that defined sexy in mid-twentieth century America. The brand debuted its retro designs on their Instagram posts featuring women in playful vignettes – voluptuous motifs of bygone beauty in seductive positions. They pose with a vintage camera or twiddle the cord of an outdated landline phone. One could infer SKIMS' posts are a reference to "pin-up girls," the female icons of mass-produced images sold as wall decoration in the mid-20th century. But this time, SKIMS will be the one to dress her. "This is lingerie for someone who doesn't have to sit at a desk for eight hours," Divita said. "This is lingerie for someone who does not have to work in the service industry. This is not lingerie for someone who has to do anything other than lounge about and look pretty. That is tapping into the current zeitgeist and some attitudes by some parts of society that women should be more feminine." "It definitely feels like a knowing commentary on trad-wife culture," said Lauren Downing Peters, associate professor of fashion studies at Columbia College Chicago, referencing women who promote a lifestyle of traditional femininity and homemaking. Women who embody 1950s gender roles might be happy to see this collection come out because most major brands have catered a different consumer, she said. These retro clothes leave sex "just beneath the surface" without putting skin on display: "It reflects that tension between exaggeration and containment," she said. For this reason, SKIMS is positioning the retro line "for the girls" rather than for the male gaze, Peters said. What makes someone 'cool'? Researchers may have figured it out. A post shared by 𝐊𝐀𝐑𝐀 𝐃𝐄𝐋 𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐎 (@karajewelll) Some of these trends may be stemming from a nostalgia for an easier, simpler time. However, a simple outfit or social media post glamorizing the past lacks context regarding what America was really like for women over 80 years ago, said Divita. "They forget women couldn't have credit cards, they couldn't get a divorce," she said. "Their social position wasn't what it is now. They look back at this attractive lingerie and it makes people think of all the good things associated with that time." More reserved clothes could follow this underwear shift, she added. Tight tees and athleisure crop tops don't favor the pointy "bullet bra," she said. If heavily-structured lingerie becomes exceedingly popular again, brands are likely to start selling blouse-style tops and longer hemlines that account more layers underneath, Divita noted. Here's why you should eat more cantaloupe this summer. On the flip side, some influencers have posted wearing SKIMS' retro girdle as a sole outfit, subverting the 1950s connotation of under garments as only visible to one's husband, noted Einav Rabinovitch-Fox, professor of gender at Case Western Reserve University. And the light, breathable fabrics SKIMS uses in 2025 allow bodies to feel more active and flexible in these kinds of clothes than eras past. "My question is how many SKIMS' customers are actually embracing it as a underwear?" she said of today's era wherein lingerie as daywear is typical. And the pointy bra hasn't just been a symbol of the '50s, though the SKIMS marketing highlighted that connection. Think of Madonna's iconic Jean Paul Gaultier cone bra look, which popularized the form as a bold statement of feminine power, Rabinovitch-Fox said. "Pointed bra is not necessary a yearning to something else," she said. "It can also be a statement of rebellion."

Paul McCartney announces Got Back 2025 US tour dates: How to get tickets
Paul McCartney hardly needs to step on a stage again. But at 83, the indefatigable Beatle is indeed taking another spin around the U.S. with his Got Back tour. The 19-date North American jaunt of arenas and a few stadiums will kick off Sept, 29 in Palm Desert, California and hit cities including Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Atlanta and Chicago. Tickets will go on sale via McCartney's website at 10 a.m. local time July 15. The day before the announcement, McCartney teased fans on his Instagram stories with a photo of a pair of guitar picks etched with the name of the tour. This new round of concerts is an extension of his Got Back run in 2022 that played 16 U.S. dates before rolling through Australia, South America and Europe until a London finale last December. But much like his lifelong comrade Ringo Starr – also still regularly on the road with his All-Starr Band – McCartney relishes sharing his incomparable catalog with fans. In February, he prompted many a dropped jaw with a handful of hastily announced shows at the 500-capacity Bowery Ballroom in New York City. His 100-minute set with his longtime band hopscotched among Beatles classics ("A Hard Day's Night," "Let It Be"), Wings masterworks ("Maybe I'm Amazed," "Jet") and even the ostensibly final Beatles song, "Now and Then," released in November 2023. Along with his tireless spirit, McCartney remains a jovial presence onstage, his affection for fans apparent as he bops his head and grins through songs performed thousands of times. Here's where you'll have a chance to hear some of them live this year. Paul McCartney Got Back in 2025 tour dates September 29 — Palm Desert, CA — Acrisure ArenaOctober 4 – Las Vegas, NV — Allegiant StadiumOctober 7 – Albuquerque, NM — Isleta AmphitheaterOctober 11 – Denver, CO — Coors FieldOctober 14 – Des Moines, IA — Casey's CenterOctober 17 – Minneapolis, MN — U.S. Bank StadiumOctober 22 – Tulsa, OK – BOK CenterOctober 29 – New Orleans, LA — Smoothie King CenterNovember 2 – Atlanta, GA — State Farm ArenaNovember 3 – Atlanta, GA — State Farm ArenaNovember 6 – Nashville, TN – The PinnacleNovember 8 – Columbus, OH — Nationwide ArenaNovember 11 – Pittsburgh, PA — PPG Paints ArenaNovember 14 – Buffalo, NY — KeyBank CenterNovember 17 – Montreal, QC — Bell CentreNovember 18 – Montreal, QC — Bell CentreNovember 21 – Hamilton, ON – TD ColiseumNovember 24 – Chicago, IL — United CenterNovember 25 – Chicago, IL — United Center

Dan Patrick: ESPN tried to destroy me with ‘smear campaign' after I left
Dan Patrick had the ESPN machine behind him for all those years as a popular 'SportsCenter' host. But once he decided to move on and begin his own media venture, he had that operation against him. Patrick alleged that the Worldwide Leader used a 'smear campaign' against him following his shocking exit from the company in 2007 before launching his own version of 'The Dan Patrick Show.' 3 Dan Patrick on 'Pardon My Take.' @PardonMyTakePodcast/YouTube 'Oh, frightening. Because there was this smear campaign that started,' Patrick said of leaving ESPN on 'Pardon My Take' on Wednesday. 'Any radio affiliate that had my show, you'd be dropped as an ESPN affiliate if you decided you still wanted to carry me. It was heavy-handed, but I understood. It empowered me. Like, 'Holy, s–t. I'm gonna matter. They're gonna have to deal with me.' 'In my mind, I loved David against Goliath. I'm sure they didn't care, but in my mind, I would tell the Danettes (colleagues), 'These motherf–kers, man, we're coming after them.' I don't think anybody was shaking in their boots because we were doing our little show.' Patrick, 69, joined ESPN in 1989 and served as a 'SportsCenter' host through 2006, while also hosting 'The Dan Patrick Show' on ESPN Radio until his 2007 exit. While he said he loved hosting 'SportsCenter,' particularly the 11 p.m. version, he recalled feeling like a 'fraud' while hosting the 6 p.m. edition since he believed he had mailed in a particular shift. Patrick still intended to sign a five-year deal to remain with the company, but a talk with his wife about his role in his four children's lives changed his outlook. 'She just said, 'The kids are all going to be out of the house and you're going to be a mess,' Patrick said. 'She was right, and when I said no, I didn't even know what I said no to. 'It was quick, they wanted me out.' 3 Dan Patrick during his ESPN days. AP Patrick left ESPN in August 2007 and he relaunched his show in October 2007. Despite some initial concerns, the show has lasted and its popularity led to it being nationally syndicated. It now streams on Peacock. He said in 2023 he plans to keep hosting the show through 2027 before hanging up the microphone. 3 Dan Patrick on Wednesday's edition of his self-named show. @TheDanPatrickShow/YouTube While leaving ESPN worked for Patrick, he cautioned that he may be the outlier. 'I probably had four people – one a big name and the other three were probably recognizable names – they wanted to know about leaving,' Patrick said on the show. 'And I said, 'Don't leave.' They're like, 'Why?' I go, 'Its a million — even larger odds than that.' I was doing the show in my attic for three years. We didn't have it made. There was a six-month period where I made sure the Danettes cashed their checks cause I didn't know if we were gonna make payroll. We changed ownership, and that changed everything for us, but it was not a success story. But I had to do it.'
