If you’re anything like us, we see an interesting headline during our daily scroll—pause to read it—but then keep scrolling without reading the actual story. So at the end of each week, we’re rounding up all the buzziest, news-worthy headlines you might have missed. Think of it as the “saved” feature on Instagram but for news instead of aesthetically pleasing photos. Migos is back and better than ever with the release of Culture III, Lorde teases a new album, and Krina makes their couple debut—this is what you missed this week.

Post Malone’s Rosé Comes To Canada
Canadian Post Malone fans can finally rosé all day. Malone’s wine brand, Maison No. 9 is available in Canada as of this week—just in time for summer. Even though Malone is known for being more of a Beerbongs & Bentleys guy the hype around his rosé is real. The U.S launch last year sold half a million bottles and I, for one, am buying into it.

Lorde Declares Suns-Out, Buns-Out Summer With ‘Solar Power’
We have bright colors, we have blue skies, we have buns out in Lorde’s new music video for “Solar Power.” Featuring backup vocals from Phoebe Bridgers and Clairo, this single is just a taste of her upcoming Solar Power album. Lorde has said she wants the album to be like a summer companion, the soundtrack you play driving to the beach. Say less Lorde, and please drop the album because I’m trying to go to the beach.

Migos Release ‘Culture III’ Ft Drake, Cardi B, Pop Smoke, Justin Bieber, and more
Hip-hop’s favorite trio has returned, ad-libs and all. The long-awaited Culture III album by Migos was released and the tracklist is looking like a music festival poster. Everyone from Drake and Pop Smoke to Future and Justin Bieber is featured on the album. Just a low-key flex. Waiting to see if there’s a Culture III song that can dethrone “Bad and Boujee’s” 2017 success as a No. 1 hit and summer anthem.

Krina Makes Their Debut
There’s been a lot of unexpected musician and celebrity couples this year—it’s currently a tie between MGK and Megan Fox and Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian. But a new competitor entered the ring this week: Krina. Or less affectionately, Kanye West and Irina Shayk. They were spotted in France while celebrating West’s 44th birthday.
