Neil Young Calls For Impeachment + The Only News You Need to Know

Last month, Neil Young recorded the anit-war album, Living with War. Featuring ten tracks, including one entitled "Impeach the President," the record will be out later this year, according to NME. Young's website will make the album available for streaming prior to its release. Young is the latest in a long line of artists recording anti-war material. Billy Bragg recently made his take, "Bush War Blues" available as a free download (mp3), while Michael Stipe, Rufus Wainwright and others took part in the "Bring 'Em Home Now" concert last month.

You know I love Kanye West, but I don't know how excited I am about his next project. The Mission:Impossible 3 soundtrack will feature two West productions - a new song, "Impossible" featuring Twista, and yet another remix of the M:I theme. West tells MTV, "It's not that fast-food shit. You can tell 'Impossible' took hours." Even creepier than that West/Cruise photo is the fact that Katie Holmes finally gave birth ... to a girl. I would have thought that ... impossible. (Will pauses from blogging to laugh at his own joke).

Arctic Monkeys say their forthcoming EP is not a cash-in on all the hype surrounding them. Frontman Alex Turner says, "It's a mission statement, if you like. We want to do things our way, and people think it's arrogance, so it's inevitable some people will get tired of us."

A new study argues that listening to hip hop on a regular basis is hazardous to your mental health. "Before we began the survey, we were studying alcohol advertising, and we noticed rap music and rap performers were being used in promoting alcoholic beverages," said Dr. Meng-Jinn Chen, the lead author of the report. "So we were aware that young people loved rap music, so there are a lot of concerns raised about the impact of the music on them." As for the effect of listening to Tom Cruise .. that has yet to be researched.

Lastly, let's have a warm goodbye for the always nervous Scott McClellan, who resigned from his position as White House press secretary.

As for me, I've been hard at work editing a new project which I will be showing to all of you next week. This is the first time in a long while that I've had a project of my own to work on. Thankfully, the rain has stopped in San Francisco and getting off at 4 has allowed for me to enjoy some of the sunshine. Hillary and I enjoyed a nice dinner at one of our favorite (secret) hot spots Nan King Road Bistro last night, before settling in for the night with Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars. Though my San Francisco Giants lost 7-4 last night, they still sit atop first place in the NL West, and had a rather interesting 10-9 victory on Monday night over Arizona.
