Post Malone Shares His Ideas For Making Costco Even Better With Jimmy Kimmel

He adores the store but thinks it could improve when it comes to free samples. …

Post Malone is at the level of music stardom where he can pop up on a talk show without being a musical guest because, in addition to his household name status, he’s a fun guy with a big personality. He did so last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and had a good chat with the host, during which they both expressed their love for Costco.

Malone described the moment it clicked for him re: Costco, saying, “I never knew the beauty of Costco, and one day I woke up and I had an epiphany, and I was just like, ‘Let’s go to Costco.’ So we get up, get out of bed, go straight to Costco. I got my membership card, it’s the worst picture on the back I’ve ever seen. But it’s a beautiful place.”

Kimmel revealed he has been a member since 1994, the year before Post Malone was born. He then asked Malone about his thoughts on waiting in line for samples, and he said he’s not patient enough for it. Malone then came up with an idea to improve that system, saying, “I think we should just get rid of the samples completely, or let you just sample stuff off of the shelf, pick something out and just go for it.”

E.G. Phillips unveils where silence speaks the loudest on new release “Empathy for the Night Fly”

The mood of E.G. PHILLIPS’s “Empathy for the Night Fly” is instantly cinematic, dark, introspective, and frozen in time. The track sounds like a scene from a late-night club where everything slows down just enough for feelings to come out. The arrangement is jazz-like in that it lets each part breathe. The arpeggiating Rhodes piano comes and goes, giving the impression that the music is thinking, as if it’s moving.

The song is really about recognition, which is when you hear something in someone else’s voice that reminds you of your own experience. It’s subtle, almost fragile, but it has a big effect on people. That emotional connection is what holds the piece together.

That choice seems deliberate, even defiant. It asks the listener to pay attention differently, not just passively. Every break is a part of the story. E.G. Phillips doesn’t just make the mood; he keeps it going. In that space, “Empathy for the Night Fly” becomes a quiet, powerful look at memory, connection, and shared feelings.

Samantha Davis turns heartbreak into power for the last time with new release “The Last Time”

Samantha Davis turned her emotional exhaustion and personal strength into “The Last Time,” a relatable song about breaking a toxic cycle. Frustration, heartbreak, and hard-won clarity fuel the single, which captures that difficult but empowering moment when kindness isn’t seen as weakness.

“The Last Time” is about regaining emotional control. The song’s painfully honest message is that love and patience can only go so far in unhealthy situations. Samantha Davis conveys that emotional weight so honestly that it feels genuine.

The line, “You took my kindness for weakness,” sets the emotional tone of the record. It’s raw, vulnerable, and powerful. After too many chances, the song becomes a final conversation. Not only is there sadness, but also resolve. The song beautifully supports that emotional journey. It’s intense enough to convey heartbreak but also allow for reflection and release.
