Mick Jagger is jumping on the Nft train for a good cause. The Rolling Stones frontman has announced that an art piece built around his new track “Eazy Sleazy,” featuring Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl on guitar, bass, and drums, will be sold as a non-fungible token (Nft) to raise money for struggling independent venues in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Jagger created the audio-visual Nft in collaboration with 3D artist Oliver Latta, a.k.a. Extraweg. The 1-1 piece, which features a 30-second loop of “Eazy Sleazy,” will...

The chorus, however, is packed with optimism for the post-pandemic future as Jagger sings, “We escaped from the prison walls/Open the windows and open the doors/But it...

Just one day after his 74th birthday, Sir Mick Jagger has given a gift to his fans—two politically charged tracks with videos to match.

So am I politically optimistic? …No.”
