Music lovers have two exciting albums to look forward to. R&B giant Ty Dolla $ign is offering his first full-length album in half a decade, titled "ALL IN." The album, set to be released on Friday, Sept. 12, is a testament to Ty Dolla $ign bringing the heat. Ed Sheeran, on the other hand, is releasing his new pop album titled "Play" on the same day. The album detours away from the acoustic introspection of Sheeran's last release, offering reserved pop music.
In cinema, "Warfare" on HBO Max embeds viewers on a seemingly minor mission in Iraq in 2006. The film, praised for rigorously rooting out war-movie cliches, is a must-watch for those seeking a fresh take on the war genre.
For those who enjoy games, Borderlands 4 is being released on Friday, Sept. 12, for PlayStation 5, Xbox X/S, and PC. In this new installment, players have landed on a prison planet ruled by a tyrant known as the Timekeeper.
