Report: Grimes leaves Columbia Records

clip on ET. This applies to the various factions of the Dutton ranching family on the hit Paramount show — which consists of patriarch John Dutton (Kevin Costner) and his adult kids, Kayce (Grimes), Jamie (Wes Bentley), Beth (Kelly Reilly) and John’s son-in-law, Rip (Cole Hauser). But it might also relate to the reportedly behind-the-scenes drama between Costner, 68, and showrunner Taylor Sheridan, 52. For the past few months, rumors have flown about a feud between the showrunner and star. Initially, it was reported that Costner refused to be on-set for long while filming the second half of Season 5, which caused uncertainty about when filming would resume.

As “Yellowstone” prepares to end with its next series instalment in November, Luke Grimes promises viewers that the final episodes will be packed with juicy drama and themes of love and family.

Christine McGuinness has shared a sweet birthday tribute to her close pal Chelcee Grimes on her 31st birthday, as she said: "Your life is unreal".Taking to her Instagram stories, Christine, 35, shared a black and white collage of six photographs of herself and Chelcee smiling and laughing together, as she wrote: "Happy 31st Birthday @chelceegrimes," as she added three white love heart emojis. Next up came another collection of photographs of the pair as they enjoyed days out and even a holiday abroad - all the while looking very happy in each others' company. On this post, Christine wrote: "@chelceegrimes I think I've loved your 31st birthday more than you have [laughing emoji].

Luke Grimes is weighing in on 's onscreen drama. In an exclusive featurette clip that's set to appear on the show's latest DVD and Blu-ray release, 's Kayce Dutton explains why the show is so popular.«Love and family and serve your tribe, your people — that's a huge theme in the show.

Grimes has opened up Julia Fox about being an “exceptionally cancelled” artist.The pop star was a guest on the actress’ Spotify podcast Forbidden Fruits earlier this week, where the pair discussed cancel culture, AI, and more.“I’m very easy to cancel and canceled very often,” Grimes told Fox. “I’ve always been exceptionally canceled.

Grimes’ new obsession is artificial intelligence.

Grimes has launched a new website making it easier to replicate her voice using AI, should you want to. It was only last month that the musician gave her blessing for people to do so.The website allows users to upload audio of themselves singing or to record directly into the software via their computer microphone. Once processed, the same audio will be returned but with a computer-generated Grimes voice.“This is all a beta test so it may be imperfect at first”, she explained in a tweet.

Grimes is stepping into the future.

The rumors may just be true: Kevin Costner won’t be returning to “Yellowstone,” according to a new report.Sources close to the production of the show told Entertainment Tonight that Costner, 68, won’t return after Season 5.The outlet also reported that there is still no update on when the cast and crew will finish filming the remainder of Season 5’s episodes and return to Montana, where the series is filmed — leading to confusion and frustration with actors on the show, which also stars Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille and Gil Birmingham.The Post has reached out to reps for Costner and Paramount for comment.Reports of Costner’s exit come amid alleged behind-the-scenes drama between the actor and series co-creator Taylor Sheridan, 52.Deadline reported in February that Costner had disagreements over shooting schedules, allotting himself 65 days to shoot the first part of the series’ current fifth season — but only wanted to shoot for 50 days.When it came time to shoot the second part of the season, Costner reportedly only wanted to spend one single week filming, causing tensions with the cast and crew.However, a Paramount spokesperson shut down the rumors and told The Post, “We have no news to report.

Grimes has unveiled Elf.Tech, her own AI voice mimicking software that will allow users to record vocals in Grimes’ voice.The singer-producer announced Elf.Tech via her social media on April 30, confirming that it is currently in its beta testing phase. “If you go to elf.tech u can upload ur voice singing or record directly into the app (click the “create” button to do this).

Last week, Grimes gave creatives the go-ahead to use AI-generated versions of her voice in their art, offering a 50% royalty split and musing on the possibility of "open sourcing all art and killing copyright." On April 30, she shared a beta version of the GrimesAI-1 Voiceprint. Users who upload their vocal files to the site will receive output audio generated in the style of Grimes' voice. “If you are signed to a label or wish to distribute it yrself," Grimes wrote on Twitter, "plz email us at [email protected]." She requested that the songs using her voice be "tasteful" — last week, Grimes said "rly rly toxic lyrics w grimes voice" such as "baby murder" songs or "Nazi anthems" will face takedown notices.

Grimes has criticised music copyright law, suggesting it impedes creativity.The artist was speaking at the annual International Music Summit (IMS) in Ibiza on April 28, where she delivered the keynote speech moderated by BBC Radio 1 Dance DJ Jaguar. In her speech, she went into topics surrounding artificial intelligence, music rights management and technology.“I feel strongly that there’s way too much gatekeeping in music,” said Grimes. “Copyright sucks.

Grimes has left her deal with Columbia Records.The news was broken by Billboard earlier this week (April 25), after the alternative pop star’s manager, Daouda Leonard, confirmed rumours.Grimes — whose real name is Claire Elise Boucher — had only been with the label since March 2021 and, at time of writing, no reason was given for their split.The partnership marked the first major label deal for the Canadian artist, and came after releasing five albums on independent labels. 2010 albums ‘Geidi Primes’ and ‘Halfaxa’ both arrived on the indie label Arbutus, while her last three LPs — ‘Visions’ (2012), ‘Art Angels’ (2015) and ‘Miss Anthropocene’ (2020) were released with 4AD.During her time with Columbia, Grimes only released two singles — ‘Player Of Games’ and ‘Shinigami Eyes’.

FIFTY FIFTY have signed a new partnership with American label Warner Records.The new partnership comes shortly after FIFTY FIFTY went viral on TikTok with their sophomore single ‘Cupid’. The English version of the song, also known as the ‘Twin Ver.’, has since peaked at number 50 on the Billboard Hot 100.“We are grateful to Warner Records for the opportunity to discuss innovative ways to bring FIFTY FIFTY to the forefront of the music industry,” said Sung-il Ahn, co-CEO of FIFTY FIFTY’s label ATTRAKT, per Billboard.“We are thrilled to find that our thoughts and visions align with an artist-centered approach, and we are eager to explore potential avenues for success together,” he added.Meanwhile, Warner Records’ COO Tom Corson and CEO Aaron Bay-schuk said: “We are thrilled to partner with FIFTY FIFTY to amplify their global smash single ‘Cupid’ and we know there is much more to come.”The duo, who are also co-chairmen of the American record label, added that the Warner Records team are “excited to create additional opportunities for this powerhouse K-pop girl group”.In a statement, FIFTY FIFTY said that they are “honoured to be working with Warner Records, and we are excited to see what the future holds for us.

Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor + Reach Music Publishing has acquired both the master and publishing rights of heavy metal legends and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members Judas Priest’s first two albums, “Rocka Rolla” and “Sad Wings of Destiny,” from Gull Entertainments. According to the announcement, Reach will be working in partnership with Judas Priest on these two albums and is planning a variety of projects to be announced later this year, including special releases for the 50th anniversary of “Rocka Rolla” in 2024. The majority of the group’s catalog was initially released on Sony Music’s Columbia or Epic labels but the first two albums, released in 1974 and 1976 respectively, had been owned by Gull for nearly 50 years.  

Grimes may have invited anyone who’s currently sitting on the generative AI bandwagon to “feel free to use my voice without penalty”, but that doesn’t mean there are no rules at all in this brave new AI world.Although she likes the idea of “open sourcing all art and killing copyright”, the musician admitted yesterday that “we may do copyright takedowns … for really really toxic lyrics with Grimes’ voice”.The recent surge in interest in using generative AI tools to create new tracks in the style of existing artists – by getting the AI to crunch data linked to the work of those existing artists – has raised concerns in certain parts of the music community.The music industry maintains that training an AI in that way requires a licence from whoever owns the copyright in the existing music. Failure to do so constitutes copyright infringement, and labels and publishers may sue you, or at least urge streaming services to stop distributing music created by unlicensed data mining.But Grimes declared at the weekend that people are more than welcome to train an AI with her back catalogue in order to create new tracks using a machine version of her voice, provided that they are willing to share any royalties those tracks might generate.“I’ll split 50% royalties on any successful AI-generated song that uses my voice”, she tweeted.

Grimes might be the one artist who will fully be embracing AI generated music.

As the great AI music debate rages on, Grimes has thrown her take into the arena of public discourse. Unsurprisingly (given the tech-bro persona she’s adopted over the past few years), she’s come down on the side of AI.
