Today, GRAMMY®-nominated, multi-Platinum pop sensation Benson Boone opens up a brand new chapter with “The Time of My Life.” Out now via Warner Records, the slow-building single captures the eerie detachment of moving forward through life without the person you thought would be by your side to the very end. Listen HERE.
The accompanying music video portrays the emotional disconnect through a theatrical production starring Alix Earle. The pair playfully portray a larger-than-life love story which perfectly contrasts Boone’s internal struggle as he is visibly haunted by the memory of a past partner. Watch the music video HERE.
“The Time of My Life” hits platforms everywhere as Boone prepares to launch his 35-date, U.S. arena-conquering Wanted Man Tour in Pittsburgh on July 7. The run will include multiple nights at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena, eventually wrapping up in Casper, WY, on September 3. Boone will also perform at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas, running September 18-19. Find his full routing below and more information HERE.
Written by Boone with his go-to collaborators Jack LaFrantz and producer Jason Evigan (Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter), “The Time of My Life” drifts into frame like a melancholy dream — just acoustic guitar and Boone’s haunted voice — then builds to soaring vocals and a staggering Wall of Sound complete with crashing drums, stormy electric guitar, and layered vocals. Channeling the lovelorn spirits of ’50s rock through a modern lens, he croons: “Yes, I’m having the time of my life, but something about it feels so off / I wish you came along / If this is as good as it gets, then why is my head such a mess, dear? / Oh, why is it all so wrong?”
Anticipation has been building for “The Time of My Life” over the past month, especially as Earle and Boone traded viral videos — of her lip-syncing the song from a yacht in Monaco, and him recreating that TikTok down to the little black dress she was wearing. The song is Boone’s first since releasing his blockbuster sophomore set American Heart, which debuted in the Top 10 in ten countries, including #2 in the U.S. and Canada and #1 in Australia and New Zealand.
Shortly before the album’s release last June, Boone made his Saturday Night Live debut with the singles “Mystical Magical” (which surpassed half a billion streams, hit Top 5 at both Top 40 and Hot AC radio, and soundtracked Target’s 2025 Holiday Campaign) and “Sorry I’m Here For Someone Else” (over half a billion streams, #1 at Hot AC radio, #2 at Top 40 radio). Both songs climbed the Billboard Hot 100 alongside Boone’s 2024 smash “Beautiful Things.” Still buzzing a year later, American Heart also launched “Mr. Electric Blue” and “Momma Song.”
And all of that was after Boone’s headline-making 67th Annual GRAMMY® Awards debut, where he was nominated for Best New Artist and delivered a show-stopping performance of “Beautiful Things.” Last year, he also took over the Coachella main stage, bringing out Brian May of Queen for an electrifying, viral rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody.” The two reunited — at a pair of shows — during the European leg of Boone’s globe-trotting American Heart Tour.
“Beautiful Things” catapulted Boone to superstar status — it was the #1 most streamed song in the world in 2024 and, just last month, the music video joined YouTube’s Billion Views Club. The viral smash logged a massive seven weeks at #1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart; hit #1 at Top 40, Hot AC, and AC radio; and vaulted to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also earned Boone two Billboard Music Awards, an MTV VMA, an iHeartRadio Music Award, the BMI Champion Award, and multiple international accolades. The chart-conquering track was featured on his 2x Platinum debut album Fireworks & Rollerblades.
Boone entered 2026 with the wind at his back. In February, he co-starred in an Instacart Super Bowl ad with Ben Stiller and headlined a San Francisco set for the Super Bowl LX concert series. Now, Benson Boone shows us where he’s headed next. Stay tuned for much more.

Following the conclusion of Amazon Prime Video’s acclaimed superhero series “The Boys”, legendary comic book creator and producer Darick Robertson is bringing his talents to the expanding Crestar and the Knight Stallion universe as co-producer and writer.
Created by Ajmal Zaheer Ahmad, Abdallah Jasim, and Najam Syed of Detroit-based Exxodus Pictures, Crestar and the Knight Stallion is a new superhero franchise spanning graphic novels and a planned live-action adaptation. The project introduces what its creators describe as the first truly East meets West superhero universe developed for a global audience.
The franchise’s first two graphic novels, Crestar and the Knight Stallion: The Legend Begins and Crestar and the Knight Stallion: Devil’s Night, will be released worldwide on Amazon beginning July 1, 2026, following successful initial comic book runs across the United States and Europe. Arabic-language editions are scheduled to follow later this year.
Robertson, best known as the co-creator of The Boys and an executive producer on “The Boys”, “Gen V”, and the upcoming “Vought Rising”, wrote the franchise’s second graphic novel, Devil’s Night, and is currently collaborating on future instalments of the expanding universe.
Known for redefining the superhero genre through morally complex characters and grounded storytelling, Robertson’s involvement marks a significant milestone for the franchise as it moves toward live-action development.
The project is led by a creative team spanning the United States and the Middle East. Ahmad serves as co-creator, executive producer, writer, director, and stars as the titular vigilante hero Crestar. Jasim, a comedian, producer, and digital creator with a global following, co-created the franchise and will portray Knight Stallion, the story’s unlikely young hero.
Also attached to the project is Plot Point 1, the Saudi Arabian and U.S.-based production company led by acclaimed filmmaker Hamzah Jamjoom (Rupture), who joins the production as a producing partner. Recognized as one of Saudi Arabia’s most prominent creative voices, Jamjoom brings extensive international experience and a global perspective to the expanding franchise.
The franchise has already attracted a growing online audience through a pair of proof-of-concept trailers that have generated a significant following across social media platforms.
Series Synopsis
Crestar and the Knight Stallion is a superhero action adventure introducing a new universe of heroes and villains. Bending and blending genres, this world balances the hilarious and the heroic, the horrific and the heartfelt. This live action series follows two homegrown heroes that hail from the cities of Detroit and Dearborn, Michigan. Crestar, a battle seasoned vigilante finds a young man named Ali that he believes may be the world’s first superhuman. Already known as the Guardian of Detroit, Crestar trains Ali to join him in his battle against corruption, tyranny and evil…and just like the real world, the villains they will face are more evil than anything fiction can imagine.
Crestar and the Knight Stallion blends an epic saga of good and evil with a story of brotherhood, courage and family in way not yet seen in the superhero genre. A unique hero is created when Ali dons the mask of the Knight Stallion and has to balance out the life he’s chosen with the life he already leads…and in the Arab culture, that means family. On the other hand, what if there was a superhero who didn’t have a secret identity at all? Crestar is another unique hero in that his greatest strength “and” weakness is… he never had a family at all.
This series throws these unique, hilarious, and lovable characters together in a team up for the ages, a literally battle for the future of mankind that starts on the streets of Detroit and grows with each season until the seeds that are planted in episode one become the potential destruction of the human race.
Are Crestar and the Knight Stallion destined to grow beyond their vigilante adventures and conquer the forces of evil on a global scale? Will Ali get married? Does Crestar ever take off his mask? Find out in this series that blends the sharpness of “The Boys” with the comedic edge of Deadpool and the imagination, family and friends of “Stranger Things”.
Darick Robertson said, “I believe Crestar and The Knight Stallion supersedes the genre it lives within in that it ultimately brings forth a human story through extraordinary circumstances. I enjoy writing these characters because of their humanity and real-world dilemmas: Getting a decent job, family conflicts, living up to the expectations of others and finding one’s way in a complicated modern world. These characters are relatable and as result, very fun to be with as they go through their adventures. It’s not typical and it’s not predictable. I think translating from the comics to the screen will feel quite natural for that reason alone.”

Internationally acclaimed GRAMMY® nominated breakout artist SOMBR today releases his highly anticipated new single “My Body Isn’t Ready,” available now via Warner Records. Accompanied by an official music video directed by Gus Black and starring Inde Navarrette and Josh Heuston, the release marks the latest chapter in SOMBR’s meteoric rise from underground phenomenon to one of the biggest artists to emerge since the release of his global break-through debut album I BARELY KNOW HER.
At just 20 years old, SOMBR continues to distinguish himself through emotional candor and magnetic songwriting. Raw, deeply personal, and universally relatable, “My Body Isn’t Ready” showcases SOMBR’s ability to transform vulnerable experiences into powerful storytelling, further cementing his status as one of the most compelling young voices in contemporary music. “My Body Isn’t Ready” finds SOMBR at his most vulnerable. Confronting themes of body image, self-perception, and the often-unspoken pressures of learning to feel comfortable in your own skin, SOMBR explores the internal struggle, offering a strikingly honest reflection on insecurity and self-worth. “My Body Isn’t Ready” was solely written and co-produced by SOMBR.
Beyond his unmistakable voice and lyricism, SOMBR continues to demonstrate a level of creative ownership and artistic maturity rarely seen from artists so early in their careers and arrives following a landmark year that has seen him sell out headline shows across multiple continents, amass billions of global streams, and rapidly establish himself as one of the defining voices of a new generation.
Watch the official music video for “My Body Isn’t Ready” HERE.
Tonight, SOMBR will make his debut as both musical and interview guest on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, performing “My Body Isn’t Ready.” His appearance follows a string of stellar performances both at the Songwriters Hall of Fame in New York City earlier this month, and his powerful live performance of “Homewrecker” at this year’s American Music Awards [WATCH].
Adding to the excitement surrounding his latest release, the born-and-bred New Yorker has also announced a surprise show set to take place tomorrow night at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. The special underplay offers fans a rare opportunity to experience the new music in an intimate setting before he embarks on his biggest headline run to date.
Starting next month, SOMBR will launch his North American You Are The Reason Arena Tour, beginning July 22 in Mexico City and culminating with two nights at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. Along the way, he will headline iconic venues including Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena, Boston’s TD Garden, Chicago’s United Center, and more. Support on select dates comes from Interpol, The Last Dinner Party, Tom Odell, Dove Cameron, Balu Brigada, King Princess, The Hellp, and Hannah Jadagu.
The tour follows a massive festival season that includes appearances at Coachella, BottleRock Napa Valley, Lollapalooza, Osheaga, Reading & Leeds, Sziget, Rock En Seine, Electric Picnic, and additional major festivals throughout North America and Europe.
As his audience continues to grow at a remarkable pace, SOMBR remains one of the most compelling artists in contemporary music. With “My Body Isn’t Ready,” he delivers another unforgettable chapter in a breakout story that shows no signs of slowing down.
“My Body Isn’t Ready” is out everywhere now.

ABOUT SOMBR
Multiple award-winning, GRAMMY®-nominated superstar SOMBR has dominated global airwaves and charts since his 2025 breakthrough smash “Back to Friends,” which earned his first Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hit (charting for 52 weeks), reached No. 1 on Spotify’s Global and U.S. charts, ruled Alternative Radio at No. 1 for five weeks, and reached number 1 on U.S. Pop Radio more than a year after its release. That summer, he released his debut studio album I Barely Know Her, featuring the record-shattering hit alongside standout fan and critical favorites “Undressed” and “12 to 12,” each of which reached the Top 20 on both the Billboard Global 200 and the Hot 100. Born in New York City, Shane Boose—who first found his voice in a makeshift Lower East Side bedroom studio—is the sole songwriter and co-producer of his entire catalog. Blending indie rock with arena-sized pop, SOMBR captures the intensity of young love with a smoldering vulnerability and emotional depth that resonates worldwide. His rapid ascent is reflected in sold-out global headline tours. SOMBR entered 2026 with a Best New Artist GRAMMY® nomination and an electrifying performance on the telecast, following a breakout year that included a show-stopping performance and “Best Alternative” win at the MTV VMAs, as well as appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Saturday Night Live. Most recently, he released “Homewrecker,” his first single since his critically acclaimed debut album, marking his fifth entry on the Billboard Global 200, fourth on the Hot 100, and his highest first-week debut to date.
