Boys Noize – “Girl Crush” (Feat. Rico Nasty)
Are we about due for a blog-house revival? It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, would it? Alexander Ridha, the German DJ and producer who records as Boys Noize, came up in the that whole mid-'00s wave, and he's been working steadily ever since. He's also become a prolific collaborator — working with Frank Ocean on "DHL" and with Skrillex and Ty Dolla $ign on "Midnight Hour." Today, Boys Noize has a new single out, a collaboration with the festival-wrecking rap energy-bomb Rico Nasty. The combination makes sense, Rico Nasty's single greatest collaborator is Kenny Beats, a veteran of the EDM universe, and Boys Noize records often have the kind of trashy energy that she can project. But "Girl Crush," the new Boys Noize/Rico collab, isn't really a Rico Nasty song. She doesn't rap in it. Instead, she purrs about a girl she likes over a pulsing electro beat. It's not doing a lot for me right now, but I could imagine it going off late at night in a room where everybody is on cocaine.

The Number Ones: Chic’s “Good Times”
In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Chic – "Good Times" HIT #1: August 18, 1979 STAYED AT #1: 1 week "Here it is, y'all," Nile Rodgers told us. "The song that started hip-hop." This was in the summer of 2000, and Chic were playing a free show at Central Park SummerStage. Rodgers, never Chic's vocalist, still made for a great hypeman throughout the evening, throwing in asides about how everyone used to go off in the clubs to these songs.

BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:45 P.M.) – The situation in northwestern Syria is getting worse by the day for the militant forces, as they now find themselves on the verge of losing their last supply line between Idlib and Aleppo.

Should the Syrian Army capture Al-Atareb and push Sarmada, the entire militant-held pocket in northwestern Syria will be split in two, with Aleppo and Idlib only being accessible from Turkish territories.
