BUZZ // Oasis Fans on Edge Amid Fresh Reunion Rumors
Oasis fans are buzzing with excitement following new rumors of a potential reunion in 2025, sparked by a string of cheeky comments from former frontman Liam Gallagher. Over the weekend, a report surfaced suggesting that the iconic Britpop band could be planning massive shows in Manchester and London, coinciding with the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Definitely Maybe.
The speculation has reached fever pitch, thanks in part to a recent interview where Noel Gallagher praised his brother’s distinct vocal style. Noel compared Liam’s voice to "10 shots of tequila on a Friday night," while likening his own to "half a Guinness."
Liam, known for his playful banter, has been responding to fans’ questions about the rumored reunion on social media. When one fan asked if the rumors were true, Liam quipped, "Honest to me I’ve not heard a peep." Another fan inquired about potential dates, to which Liam teasingly replied, "Next Friday."
The reunion chatter has intensified, with fans taking to social media to express their excitement. Some even joked that if Oasis reunites, it could solve global problems like climate change.
Liam’s son, Gene Gallagher, recently added fuel to the fire by saying his dad is "up for a reunion," though he admitted that it’s ultimately out of his control. As fans eagerly await an official announcement, the possibility of seeing the Gallagher brothers back on stage has the UK music scene on the edge of its seat.

Sinusoidal Spotlight : “Panthera” by Proklaim
Proklaim is a solo music project by British-born, Namibia based rapper Birungi Alexander Kiremire. The artist’s muted social media presence stands in juxtaposition with the consistency with which he has been dropping singles and EPs since 2018, leading to an extensive rap discography. His latest single “Panthera” is a hard-core hip-hop track that will instantly bring energy to any room!
Apart from the bass-heavy sample, the 808 beat is a very prominent part of the track and adds to it much of its energy. The songwriting re-affirms the values of hard work, keeping your dreams your alive, your moves silent and having a blue print.
