Billie Eilish has shared a new, self-directed video for her latest single ‘Everything I Wanted’.

The pop star announced the arrival of the clip on her Instagram page earlier today (January 23), sharing a snippet of the video.

““everything i wanted” VIDEO OUT IN ONE HOUR EVERYWHERE 12PM PT. DIRECTED BY ME! STARRING MY BRUDDER FINNEAS😁😁” she captioned the post.

The video begins with the words: “Finneas is my brother and best friend. No matter what the circumstance, we have always and always will be there for each other.” It then shows Eilish and her brother and collaborator Finneas in a car driving through a city at night. The two stare straight ahead as she lip syncs to the track, Finneas only turning his head as his sister begins to drive onto a beach and towards the ocean.

In a press release, Eilish said: “My brother and I wrote this song about each other and I wanted to create a visual that emphasises that no matter what, we’ll be there for each other through everything. This is the second video I’ve directed of mine. We worked so hard, for hours and hours on end. I love it, I hope you do too.”

Meanwhile, the musician has confirmed her plans to make a new album this year. When asked if she would release a new record during an interview at iHeartRadio’s ALTer EGO concert last weekend (January 18-19), Eilish responded: “This year, no, but I will be making it this year. But next few years? It’s coming. When it’s made. It’s not made yet.”

She also gave an update on her forthcoming AppleTV+ documentary, which is expected to follow the star in the wake of the release of her debut album, ‘When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?’, in March last year.

“I’ve seen no part of it,” she said. “I’m terrified. I’m freaked out. They’ve been filming since like July of 2018 … Who has that much footage of them that they’ve never seen? I’m terrified.”

Eilish is nominated in three categories at this year’s NME Awards, including Best Album In The World, Best Song In The World and Best Solo Act In The World. The winners will be announced on February 12 at London’s O2 Academy Brixton.

In 2017, Meek Mill was sued by three different parties over a shooting that happened at a December 2016 concert at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford, Connecticut. One man, Dylan Thomas, was shot in the leg and sued the rapper as well as Live Nation and the concert venue for damages. That case was dropped last year.

Now, the two remaining parties—the families of two men killed in the shooting—have both agreed to drop their lawsuits, as the Blast reports and Pitchfork can confirm via court records. (When reached for comment by Pitchfork, a representative for Meek Mill also confirmed that the suits have been dismissed.) The family of Jaquan Graves withdrew their suit on January 13, while the family of Travis Ward dropped their case on January 22.

Earlier this week, it was announced that Meek Mill will be performing at this year’s Grammy Awards as part of a tribute performance for the late Nipsey Hussle.

Oh, D Smoke is ready ready for his 2020 campaign.

Chance the Rapper is set to host MTV’s rebooted celebrity prank show Punk’d. It’s coming to the mobile video platform Quibi, which launches in April 2020. In a press release, Chance said, “Punk’d is one of MTV’s most iconic franchises.” He added, “I grew up watching this show and it’s surreal to be in the driver’s seat this time around on Quibi.” Watch a teaser below.

Punk’d, famously hosted by Ashton Kutcher, originally ran on MTV from 2003 to 2007. The show returned to the network for one season in 2012, before heading to BET in 2015.

Chance is no stranger to MTV reality programs. In 2017 and 2018, he appeared on the network’s Wild ’N Out.

Taken from his Love For Guala project, Flipp Dinero drops a video for “Looking At Me” with Rich The Kid.

A standard affair, the video just features them, cash, cars and cheeks. Watch the We The Best’s visual below.

Megan Thee Stallion has shared a brand new song. It’s called “B.I.T.C.H.,” and you can hear it below.

“B.I.T.C.H.” is Meg’s second single of 2020 so far. Earlier this month, she dropped “Diamonds” with Normani. That song features on the soundtrack for Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), the new DC movie that follows Suicide Squad member Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie).

Megan Thee Stallion released Fever back in 2019, as well as her highly anticipated single “Hot Girl Summer.”

Check out “The 100 Best Songs of 2019,” featuring Fever’s “Cash Shit” at No. 12.

Although we got ScHoolboy Q’s CrasH Talk and SiR’s Chasing Summer albums, Top Dawg Entertainment wasn’t as busy (release wise) last year as fans we’re hoping for. Thankfully, that’s all about to change in 2020.

With a(nother) massive year from the West Coast label planned, Reason is helping kick things off with the release of his new single, “Show.Stop.”

Equipped with Kendrick Lamar adlibs, the !llmind and The Ninetys-laced track can be heard below. Press play and get ready for what’s next.
