Black Panther 2 may feature songs by Rihanna

Rihanna has reportedly recorded several songs for the end credits of the Marvel sequel Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

According to The New York Times writer Kyle Buchanan, “Rihanna is recording the end-credits song for BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER. If nothing else, this adds a significant new Oscar contender to an original-song race.”

Rihanna is now one of the biggest music artists of all time, with sales of over 250 million records worldwide. Rihanna has not released any solo music as a leading artist for a while now, and no doubt a theme for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever would be a major boon for the MCU sequel.

Taylor Swift drops ‘Midnights,’ music video

Taylor Swift’s dropped seven bonus tracks and a music video just hours after her new album “Midnights” release. “Midnights” was released at, well, midnight Eastern time and became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day.

“Surprise! I think of “Midnights” as a complete concept album, with those 13 songs forming a full picture of the intensities of that mystifying, mad hour,” she wrote on Instagram. “However! There were other songs we wrote on our journey to find that magic 13.”

Swift is the sole credited performer on the bonus tracks — the only person to get a featured credit on any “Midnights” track is Lana Del Rey.

Battle of the Super Sons

Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons is the latest DC movie to come out of Warner Bros. Animation. The coming-of-age film is inspired by Peter J. Tomasi’s popular Super Sons comic, which showcased the team of Robin (Damian Wayne) and Superboy (Jon Kent) for the first time.

The movie begins as 11-year-old Jonathan Kent discovers he has superpowers, thrusting the half-Kryptonian into the complicated world of Super Heroes and Super-Villains — who are now under attack by a malevolent alien force known as Starro.

It’s a race against time as Jonathan must join forces with assassin-turned-Boy-Wonder Damian Wayne to rescue their fathers (Superman and Batman) and save the planet by becoming the Super Sons they were destined to be!

Battle of the Super Sons features Jack Griffo as Damian Wayne and Jack Dylan Grazer as Jon Kent. Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons is now available on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and Digital.
