At Las Vegas’ Sick New World festival, Grammy-nominated metal band Spiritbox teamed up with Prince St. Pizza on a specialty pie and merch collab. 

With multiple verticals, paid tiers, and audio/video formats, the “Spotify Machine” highlights how far the former audio-only platform has expanded its product offering. As the company looks to become profitable, adding more products and features increases its value-to-price ratio and allows them to raise subscription prices. 

Producer Benny Blanco has cooked up an eco-friendly tie-dyed apron in collaboration with cookware company HexClad. Each apron is made from 34 recycled plastic bottles and sports practical features like a towel loop and phone/pen pocket. The collab is part of the rollout for Blanco’s upcoming cookbook: “Open Wide: A Cookbook for Friends” due April 30th. 

To promote his new Mitchell & Ness collaboration, Jack Goes Back to College, Travis Scott and Fanatics founder Michael Rubin visited three different schools across the country in 36 hours- shaking hands and manning the registers.
