Yung Lean Previews New Album with Twitter Teaser

This afternoon, Swedish teenager and Ed Hardy apologist Yung Lean shared some details about his new full-length, Unknown Memory, via a one-minute album teaser posted to Twitter. Jump to the 30 second mark to peep the track list, and read an interview with him and the rest of the Sad Boys from earlier this summer right here.  

Huh: Is FKA Twigs Dating Robert Pattinson?

According to several gossip sites of varying degrees of credibility, the answer is yes. "A friend of the singer confided: "It's the real deal between Rob and Tahliah," the IBT Times reports. 'They had been able to keep their relationship secret until recently, but they're already smitten.' Read Twigs cover story from The FADER #91. 

Sandy Kim Takes Dazed's "Pop Quiz"

Just like @NYTyrant, whose interview we posted in this column a couple weeks ago, Dazed enlisted New York photographer and FADER contributor Sandy Kim for their rapid-fire "Pop Quiz" series. She talks about Larry Clark, Lou Reed, and Bart Simpson—but the end is probably the best part: 

Dazed: Does the American Dream still exist?
Sandy Kim: Yes, now it's a nightmare.

Check out Kim's photographs of Sky Ferreira for The FADER here.

Happy Tuesday: Hear a Woozy Pop Cover of  iLoveMakonnen's Hit

This weekend, news broke that iLoveMakonnen signed with Drake's OVO label. Today, to celebrate, we posted a beginner's guide to the lovably eccentric artist's extensive back catalog. But since there's really no such thing as too much Makonnen on a Tuesday, here's a wobbly guitar-pop cover of his crossover hit by duo HamJam, straight from Australia's west coast.   

And, Finally...

Lol: a pair of Instagram videos (featuring Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug) that made FADER contributor David Turner happy.
