"I just locked myself in my f---ing lair, bro," 19-year-old Pablo Dylan tells Rolling Stone about the process by which he made his forthcoming album Midnight. Pablo Dylan is the son of film director Jesse Dylan, who's the son of Bob Dylan with former wife Sara Lownds Dylan. Pablo Dylan says his grandfather has been very supportive, but no musical collaboration is in the works: "That's a conversation that's never happened and probably never will happen." Pablo's first album and Bob's 36th are both slated for release next year.

The Beatles may be the greatest rock band of all time, but thanks to commercial flops like Yellow Submarine, they're far from the most consistent—in fact, when it comes to album sales, they're only the ninth most consistent, behind artists like the Dave Matthews Band, Rick Ross, Bruce Springsteen, and number one most-consistent album artist Beyoncé.
