News It or Lose It: Nolan’s "The Odyssey" & Beyoncé’s Met Gala Return

It is time to decide: is it headline news or just noise? On this edition of News It or Lose It, Zweli reacts to the visually stunning trailer for Christopher Nolan’s upcoming action epic, The Odyssey. With a powerhouse cast featuring Tom Holland and Lupita Nyong’o, we explore why this journey is already being hailed as a cinematic event. We also head to the steps of the Met Gala, where the "Costume Art" theme took center stage. The biggest story of the night? Beyoncé’s incredible return after a ten-year absence. We discuss the outfits that made a statement and whether the theme lived up to the hype. To wrap things up, we look at the music world’s mixed bag—from the disappointing news of the Pussycat Dolls canceling their North American tour to the arrival of a fresh new single from Gracie Abrams.
