Mega Ran & Amerigo Gazaway Emerge from The Upside Down with STRANGERS: Back to The Lab EP (RandomBeats & Soul Mates Records)

As we all well know by now (or SPOILER ALERT:) Stranger Things is a Science-Fiction/Horror web television series created, written, and directed by The Duffer Brothers and executive-produced by Shawn Levy. The show was released as a Netflix original series premiering on July 15, 2016. The show takes place in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana in the early-to-mid-1980's. When a young boy vanishes, Hawkins becomes embroiled in an extraordinary mystery involving secret experiments, terrifying super-natural forces, and one strange little girl... Mega Ran released STRANGERS in 2017 and a follow-up is upon us! Inspired by the events of the record-breaking fourth season of Stranger Things (seriosuly, no SPOILERS here,) RandomBeats & Soul Mates Present: Mega Ran & Amerigo Gazaway's STRANGERS: Back to The Lab, a follow-up to Ran's 2017 STRANGERS EP.

Featuring production work from DJ DN³, Lost Perception, K-Murdock, and a handful of talented lyricists and collaborators (including Glennellen Anderson of Stranger Things, Season 1,) Ran & Gazaway—yes, he's here RAPPING!—join forces to save the world itself from the evils of The Upside Down. Roll for initiative! Pay What You Want, even $0.00! Mega Ran's original Sci-Fi effort, STRANGERS (2017,) was released ahead of Season 2 and showcased seven tracks, along with a Bonus Track, each focused on one primary character of Stranger Things. However, this time, on STRANGERS 2 AKA STRANGERS: Back to The Lab, Ran and new-found collborator/kindred spirit Amerigo Gazaway—widely-known for his Yasiin Gaye, J.B. & The Soul Mates/The Notorious J.B.'s, and A Common Wonder projects—have incorporated and skillfully interwoven elements from Stranger Things, Season 4 (Vol. I-II.)

This time around, Mega Ran & Amerigo Gazaway are accompanied by supporting characters (producers) Lost Perception, DJ DN³ & K-Murdock and guest stars (featured artists) Ray Wimley, Glennellen Anderson AKA "Nicole" from Stranger Things, and Dillon. Ran & Amerigo have even incorporated samples of Metallica's "Master of Puppers," Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God,)" and other assorted themes and arcs seen and heard throughout the beloved series. So, turn that frown Upside Down, turn off that other Netflix series, and go stream or purchase STRANGERS: Back to The Lab exclusively at Bandcamp. Hopefully, this will help hold you (and ourselves!) over 'til Stranger Things' Season 5 send-off!

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of...

Jet Planes, Islands, Tigers On a Gold Leash: Lorde - "Royals" (The Weeknd Remixo)

I think it's pretty safe to say that The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) comfortably teeters the fine line between glitched-out smooth New Age R&B and hard-hitting Hip-Hop ; while the same could arguably be said for 16-year-old New Zealand new-comer, Lorde . Her break-out single "Royals" 1/2 jokingly shouts out semi-common bravado-worthy shit like: diamonds, "gold teeth, Grey Goose ... Cadillacs, Cristal, Maybach ... jet planes, islands, [and] tigers on a gold leash." But now, the Lorde/Weeknd connection has been further solidified, as Tesfaye recently managed to conjure up and release his own "Royals" remix. My beautiful girlfriend said earlier, and I paraphrase, that it "makes her wanna dance lol and she could [likely] hear this remix in a future movie!" Following the wide-spread release of her first 2 EP's (Love Club & Tennis Court) , Universal Republic plans to unleash Lorde 's proper debut album, Pure Heroine between ...

Pop Artist & Surfer Chronicle Intriguing Ex-Pornstar In "SASHA GREY."

Seemingly made to co-exist as thought-provoking companion pieces... "LINDSAY LOHAN" directors Richard Phillips & Taylor Steele are back with their most recent Art Presentation, "SASHA GREY." The 90-second short film was shot in early May @ John Lautner Chemosphere House in Los Angeles, CA. Both striking flicks will be shown on a giant floating video screen [ "Commercial Break" ] @ Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Venice, Italy (June 1-5). "Adult acting chops" aside, Sasha (23) seems very intelligent, captivating, free-spirited, business savvy, well-mannered, charming... and dare I say, "average." And I really think that's exactly what Phillips/Steele were trying to convey throughout the course of the piece; Grey's beauty, public draw, sheer likeability, and honesty will surely take her very far in future endeavors... Solidifying her [updated] image as a true "Pop Culture Figure." * Featured soundtra...
