Diddy Once Mistook Jeff Tweedy For A Grammys Usher And Demanded His Programs

‘He tapped the programs that I was holding with a cane. He’s like, ‘Give me one of those.” …

Wilco leader Jeff Tweedy has proven to be a delightful late-night talk show guest in recent years, whether he’s promoting Wilco material or his own solo work. He popped up again last night on Late Night With Seth Meyers, where he told the story of the time Diddy mistook him for an usher at the Grammys.

Tweedy told the story through laughter from himself, Meyers, and some off-camera Late Night staff. Meyers said the tale took place at the first Grammys ceremony Tweedy attended with Wilco, which would have been the 41st Annual Grammys in 1999, where Mermaid Avenue was nominated for Best Contemporary Folk Album. Tweedy was standing outside the bathroom holding a stack of programs belonging to his Wilco bandmates and their guests when Diddy approached him. Tweedy said, “P. Diddy walked up to me and he thought I was an usher handing out programs. He tapped the programs that I was holding with a cane. He’s like, ‘Give me one of those.’ I’m like, ‘No, they’re mine.’ It didn’t escalate, thank goodness.”

Speaking of the Grammys, the Recording Academy is set to announce the list of 2021 nominees this morning, so keep an eye on Uproxx to find out who is up for what awards.

Tweedy also performed “Gwendolyn” on the show, so check that out below and watch Tweedy chat with Meyers above.

The trapheaux gracefully glides over in new release “Marble Floors”

Trapheauxly

Trapheauxly’s latest release, “Marble Floors,” is a smooth, seductive single that combines clean, complex rap verses with melodic R&B. The song’s production, soulful vocal harmonies, and steady rhythmic pulse create a luxurious yet emotionally grounded atmosphere. All of these elements work together to create this atmosphere.

The most impressive aspect of it is the way it shifts from a catchy melodic hook to a rapid-fire delivery of the lyrics. One moment, “Marble Floors” is silky smooth, and the next, it is razor sharp. This contrast is what gives the musical its identity.

When it comes to lyrical concerns of intimacy, devotion, and elevated aesthetics, the image of marble floors appears, time and time again, as a symbol of elegance and emotional weight. Trapheauxly is a polished package that combines style, substance, and value that cannot be denied in terms of replay value.

NIHLNØTHING unleashes increased tides on new release “ocean” Power

NIHLNØTHING

NIHLNØTHING’s latest release, “Ocean” is a powerful, immersive single that defies classification as heavy music. The track sounds huge, punishing, and emotionally complex, as the title promises, drawing on post-metal, alternative metal, sludge, groove metal, metalcore, and deathcore.

A sense of depth makes “ocean” appealing. The song balances atmosphere and intensity like a violent current under calm waters. This track has towering sonic weight and textured melodic darkness, suggesting it can go from hypnotic tension to explosive release in a heartbeat.

Genre DNA enables NIHLNØTHING to create something expansive. It has sludge, groove, metalcore urgency, and a post-metal mood that’s probably more than aggression. NIHLNØTHING excels in contrasting crushing weight with atmosphere, chaos with control, and brutality with reflection. Balance distinguishes loud from powerful music.
