The best things in life are free, especially when they are tweeted. In his usual, quizzical manner, Kanye West announced on Twitter his upcoming album has a new, secret name, and anyone who can guess it will get tickets to his upcoming Madison Square Garden show and free sneakers.

The G.O.O.D. Music founder took to his personal Twitter account to announce the album’s new secret name and gave only one clue to its title: the acronyms T.L.O.P. This is the third time Mr. West has changed the name of his eighth studio album since last May when he changed it from So Help Me God to SWISH. This should be the final name change as he is debuting season three of his apparel line with Adidas as well as his new album at Madison Square Garden this Thursday. The event is selling out quickly, so this guessing game is your best bet at seeing the show if you do not already have tickets.

The prospect of new sneakers and tickets are making everyone put their detective hat on to decipher Kanye’s mysterious code, including celebrities.

Kanye may also be handing someone hundreds of dollars and not even know it. Hours before he announced the guessing game for the sneakers and tickets, Adidas confirmed the re-release of the “Pirate Black” Yeezy Boost 350 next Friday. Adidas released the “Oxford Tan” color of the insanely popular Yeezy Boost 350 on December 29 for $200. At press time, less than a month and a half later, those same shoes have been resold for as high as $900, according to resale market tracking site Campless.

So, either get the guessing or break open the piggy bank. Yeezy Claus is coming to town.

What is hi-res audio, and how can you experience it right now?
Dlyan Wireless Headphones

High-resolution audio, hi-res audio, or even HD audio -- whatever you decide to call it (for the record, the industry prefers "hi-res audio"), it's a catch-all term that describes digital audio that goes above and beyond the level of sound quality you can expect from a garden-variety MP3 file and even CDs. It was once strictly the domain of audiophiles, but now that major streaming music services like Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer, and Qobuz have embraced it, almost everyone can take advantage of what hi-res has to offer.

But what exactly is hi-res audio? What equipment do you need to listen to it? Where can you download or stream it? And does it actually sound better? We've got the answers.
What does the term 'hi-res audio' mean?

How to download music from Spotify for offline listening
How to download music and podcasts from Spotify: The downloads folder.

If you're a Spotify Premium user paying that premium Spotify fee, chances are you've taken at least some time curating playlists, liking songs, and using the platform's easy-to-use (and recently revamped) user interface to discover new and old music.

But sometimes all that music or your favorite podcasts aren't available if you find yourself without an internet connection to stream them from — like on a long plane ride or weekend camping trip in the sticks. That's where Spotify's offline listening feature comes in handy, allowing you to download playlists, albums, and podcasts through its desktop and mobile apps so you can still rock out while you're off the grid.
