Billboard Update: Big Debuts From Lorde, 2 Chainz, DJ Khaled and More
Here are the updates for both the Billboard 200 and The Hot 100 charts. First off, I missed last week's Billboard update so I feel the need to mention that SZA debuted at No. 3 with her first studio album, CTRL. Amazing!

The Bachelor Franchise Has a Race Problem
I make no secret of the fact that I’m a proud member of Bachelor Nation. I ignore the haters, the ones that don't understand the show's appeal. The Bachelor and all of its respective spin-offs are my brain candy. When I learned one of my favorite people from the last season of The Bachelor, Rachel Lindsay, had been selected as the new Bachelorette, I was ecstatic! She is a perfect choice. Well-liked by the audience and by the women with whom she competed for Nick Viall’s love, and one of the few people of color on any of the shows to make it to the final three, the show’s producers knew they were capturing lightning in a bottle.

What-If Girl
What-If Girl: A Girl's Very Best Friend in Today's Crazy Oppressive Society (Working Title) In this cold Trump world, things are feeling a bit strange. Today's atmosphere feels stifling, oppressive, even dangerous for minorities, women, and folks who are waking up to daily injustices. Black and brown women are asking themselves stale queries as they go into battle with everyday bullshit in this twisted version of life: Who says I need approval get moving on my own passions and desires? What if I lived life on my own terms and principles as a strong woman in this world? What if I did the right thing, and actually took care of myself? What if I stood up for what was right at all costs?

Drifters
Being a fan of anime series, finding stories about a person sent to another world is no new occurrence. From classics to the recent animes, this kind of action-fantasies caught us in awe, however, most of these stories had become repetitive and mostly predictable. So, what if someone adds a twist in it? Instead of sending helpless teenage boys and girls into a world of magic and chaos, what if we actually get to see some skillful people, masters of their field, who had created history, show off their insane abilities in a different world?

The Greatest Music Man You Have Probably Never Heard Of
So, what you do if you're a scion of one of the richest dynasties in America? Well, you turn to music, of course. John Henry Hammond, Jr., born in 1911 into a branch of the Vanderbilt family, was never destined to tread a path into the world of banking. From an early age, he was only interested in music.
