Dating app Tinder has teamed up with Spotify to add new music-related features.

According to a press release, the move comes to “fully integrate music into the swiping experience”.
New features include being able to pick your own personal ‘anthem’: one song linked to your profile that could be what you’re listening to at the moment or simply your favourite track of all time.

Users will be able to connect their Tinder and Spotify accounts, allowing them to search for potential love interests based on their music tastes.

“We’re helping provide a completely new sensory experience on Tinder. Get ready for some serious sound,” the press release adds.

Solange Knowles has published a blog post in response to the hate she says she received at a concert she was at with her son.

In it Beyonce’s sister explains how she had wanted the Kraftwerk gig in New Orleans to be a “family Friday night”.

Solange claims she was singled out before the end of the first song by a group of four white women who yelled at her to “sit down”.

She says they then threw half-eaten limes at them.

The singer claims there were plenty of people standing and dancing too but believes she was singled out for being black.

Soon after the concert the 30-year-old took to Twitter to share her experience.
