Cardi B and More React as Donald Trump Declares Win

Donald Trump has declared victory in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, after the Associated Press and other major news outlets called the presidential race in his favor.

Addressing his supporters from his campaign’s watch party in Florida, Trump said, “Every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family and your future.” He added he was going to make people “very happy” and “very proud” of their vote.

“We have a country that needs help, and it needs help very badly,” Trump said. “We’re going to fix our borders. We’re going to fix everything about our country.”

At the time of his speech, Trump had 267 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House and is leading in several key races, including Michigan and Wisconsin. The count continues.

Meanwhile, the Harris campaign announced that the Vice President would not immediately deliver a speech and supporters were seen leaving her election night watch party.

While some celebrated, many in Hollywood and the music industry were stunned — including Bette Midler, who quoted journalist and essayist H.L. Mencken in one of the night’s most scathing responses.

“When a candidate for public office faces the voters he does not face men of sense; he faces a mob of men whose chief distinguishing mark is the fact that they are quite incapable of weighing ideas, or even of comprehending any save the most elemental…The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people.”

The quote continues, “On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

Cardi B kept it short but direct as Trump’s lead grew throughout the evening: “We need a Hail Mary,” she tweeted, clearly shaken by the turn of events after endorsing Kamala Harris. On Instagram, she went a step further, posting to her Story, “I hate y’all bad.”

Marc Rebillet posted on X, “F— DONALD TRUMP.”

According to AP News, Trump would be the first former president to return to power since Grover Cleveland regained the White House in the 1892 election. He also stands to be the first person convicted of a felony to be elected president and, at 78.

Michael Jackson Biopic Pushed Back to Late 2025

Lionsgate have announced that Michael, its Michael Jackson biopic from director Antoine Fuqua, is now slated to hit theaters in wide release on Oct. 3, 2025.

The feature is moving back by six months from its previously planned release on April 18, 2025.

Starring in the title role is Jaafar Jackson, who is the nephew of the late pop superstar, while Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Miles Teller and Colman Domingo round out the cast. Fuqua helms from a script by John Logan for the project that counts Graham King, John Branca and John McClain as producers.

Lionsgate has also set its comedy Good Fortune for wide theatrical release on Oct. 17, 2025. Writer-director Aziz Ansari stars in the film alongside Seth Rogen, Keke Palmer, Sandra Oh and Keanu Reeves. Ansari, Anthony Katagas and Alan Yang serve as producers.

Good Fortune centers on a well-intentioned but slightly clueless angel (Reeves), who intervenes in the lives of a frustrated gig worker (Ansari) and a successful venture capitalist (Rogen).

During a San Diego Comic-Con panel in July, Fuqua spoke about his progress on Michael, explaining that he was in the process of editing the film at the time.

“Why I wanted to make it is, Michael,” the filmmaker said. “Michael was a big part of my life growing up, big influence on my career, an incredible artist — but he was a human being, and we’re exploring that. I’m very excited about it.”

Footage from Michael was shared at CinemaCon in April, where King revealed that the movie will include 30 songs and have a lengthy run time, in order to do justice to Jackson’s story.

Jackson’s impact on the Billboard charts is unparalleled. He achieved 13 Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles as a solo artist, with 30 of his songs reaching the top 10. His album Thriller set numerous records, spending 37 non-consecutive weeks at number one on the Billboard Top LPs & Tapes chart from 1983 to 1984 and became the first album to produce seven Hot 100 top 10 singles.

Jackson is also the only artist to have top 10 hits on the Hot 100 across five consecutive decades (1970s–2010s). In 1983, he made history by simultaneously topping Billboard’s Pop and R&B Album and Singles charts for six consecutive weeks.

Following his death in 2009, Jackson achieved another unprecedented feat when three of his albums claimed the top three positions on Billboard’s Top Pop Catalog Albums and Top Comprehensive Albums charts simultaneously.

Pharrell Williams Recalls Getting Fired from McDonald’s Three Times

Pharrell Williams may be a music mogul today, but his first job at McDonald’s wasn’t exactly a resounding success.

Reflecting on his early days, the 51-year-old—now a Grammy-winning artist and fashion entrepreneur worth an estimated $250 million—recalled how his love for McNuggets landed him in trouble during his fast-food stint.

“McDonald’s was my first and only job,” he told BBC Radio 2. “I got fired three times. I was eating the chicken nuggets.”

Pharrell admitted that his McDonald’s career was short-lived. “The first two times it was just because I was lazy,” he explained. “The third was like, ‘What are you doing? You’re just sitting there eating nuggets?’”

While his time in fast food ended quickly, Pharrell would go on to achieve monumental success on the Billboard charts, kicking off his musical career in music production duo The Neptunes with Chad Hugo in 1992. In 1999, Pharrell, along with Hugo and drummer Shay Haley, formed the band N.E.R.D and released their debut album, In Search Of… in 2002.

As one of the defining artists of the 2000s, Pharrell has topped the Billboard Hot 100 four times, including a remarkable run with his single “Happy,” which held the No. 1 spot for 10 consecutive weeks in 2014.

Despite his early struggles at McDonald’s, “Happy” demonstrated Pharrell’s knack for creating a hit, leading Billboard’s Digital Songs Sales chart with 402,000 downloads in one week. It also marked his first No. 1 as a lead artist—a milestone that took 12 years and one week from his debut entry, setting a record for the longest wait for a Hot 100 No. 1 as a lead artist.

Pharrell’s talent for creating hits extends beyond his solo work. In 2013, he made Billboard history by holding the No. 1 and No. 2 spots simultaneously with “Blurred Lines” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” making him only the 12th artist ever to achieve this feat.

His work on these chart-toppers solidified his reputation, earning him the title of Billboard’s “Producer of the Decade” in 2010. His illustrious career has earned him 1,544 weeks across 68 different Billboard charts.

Beyond music, Pharrell’s influence has reached fashion with his Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream labels, and in 2023, he was appointed as the men’s creative director for Louis Vuitton.

Stevie Nicks Brings Women’s Rights Anthem ‘The Lighthouse’ to ‘Kimmel’

Stevie Nicks has shared a powerful performance of her most recent single, “The Lighthouse”, as part of her Election Day eve appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Appearing on the program on Monday (Nov. 4), the iconic Fleetwood Mac frontwoman’s performance was prefaced by host Jimmy Kimmel referring to the track as an “anthem for women’s rights”, with Nicks’ stirring rendition being accompanied by visuals of thunder and lightning.

“I wrote this song a few months after Roe v. Wade was overturned,” wrote Nicks in a post on Instagram upon its release. “It seemed like overnight, people were saying ‘what can we, as a collective force, do about this…’ For me, it was to write a song.”

She continued, “It took a while because I was on the road. Then early one morning I was watching the news on TV and a certain newscaster said something that felt like she was talking to me~ explaining what the loss of Roe v. Wade would come to mean. I wrote the song the next morning and recorded it that night. That was September 6, 2022. I have been working on it ever since. I have often said to myself, ‘This may be the most important thing I ever do.’ To stand up for the women of the United States and their daughters and granddaughters ~ and the men that love them.”

“This is an anthem,” Nicks said.

Since its release, “The Lighthouse” has peaked at No. 2 on the Rock Digital Song Sales chart, and was also voted as Favorite New Music on Sep. 29.

On Oct. 12, Nicks made her triumphant return to Saturday Night Live, performed on the long-running NBC sketch comedy show for the first time in 41 years during the Ariana Grande-hosted episode.

Her appearance on the show featured both a performance of “The Lighthouse” and “Edge of Seventeen”, the latter of which peaked at No. 11 on the Hot 100 chart upon its release in 1982.

The Viral Search for a Mysterious ‘80s Song May Finally Be Over

After almost two decades of searching, and five years as a viral internet phenomena, the search for ‘The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet’ may finally be over.

For years now, music fans have been attempting to track down the authorship of a forgotten new wave song which had been recorded off German radio in the mid-1980s. The search first began in 2007 when an internet user by the name of Lydia took to online forums to try and identify the song, which had been recorded to cassette by her brother Darius decades earlier.

Following some modest attention, it wasn’t until 2019 that the search began in earnest, with users on social media and sites such as YouTube focusing their efforts on identifying the track, which had been dubbed “Like the Wind” in accordance with what appeared to be its opening lyric.

Over the past five years, a number of impressive discoveries were made, including researchers determining the likely recording date of the song due to the release of other songs on the tape and the presence of a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer (which was released in 1983), and confirming the veracity of the recording by identifying a frequency present within German broadcasts of the era.

However, on Monday (Nov. 4), Marijn1412, a user of the Reddit community dedicated to the search claimed that the song had been identified as “Subways Of Your Mind” by German band FEX.

According to the user, the song was discovered during research of contemporary German music event Hörfest, which FEX had been involved in. After contacting a member of the group, the song was reportedly confirmed as belonging to FEX, with the band member claiming a re-release was in the works.

Michael Hädrich, the keyboardist, guitarist, and backing vocalist of FEX, spoke to German publication Tz, claiming that the band knew nothing of the viral search until he was contacted.

“We hadn’t noticed all this internet phenomenon at all, mainly naturally, because the title of the song was not known on the Internet and was therefore no relation,” Hädrich explained. As he continued, he noted it was only when the Reddit user requested copies of his old material that the rediscovery of the song was made.

“Only then did he point me out whether I didn’t realize that the song ‘Subways of your Mind’ is the ‘Most Mysterious Song on the Internet’.”

Currently, the song is in the process of being verified, with Hädrich claiming that he and the group have numerous materials on hand which can prove the song is theirs, including the original recording session, statements, live recordings, and witnesses who were present for the initial session.

If found to be true, the discovery marks another successful discovery in the field of what has been dubbed “lostwave”, or music whose origins are unknown.

In April, another viral lostwave search came to an end, with the song dubbed “Everybody Knows That” being identified as Christopher and Phillip Booth’s “Ulterior Motives”, which had been originally composed for a pornographic film in the 1980s.

Julian Casablancas Address Refusal to Vote: ‘The Two Parties Are a Joke’

The Strokes’ frontman Julian Casablancas has taken to social media to note his refusal to vote in the 2024 U.S election, and explaining his reasoning for doing so.

Taking to Instagram on Tuesday (Nov. 5), the vocalist shared an image of a sticker which read “I Protested” instead of the typical “I Voted” illustration. In the caption, Casablancas explained that his post had been prefaced by a discussion with his mother, who expressed her disagreement with his decision to abstain from the democratic process.

“My beautiful sweet amazing mom just told me ‘I agree with you but right now vote at lease to keep trump from winning. Think of your children’,” he wrote. “I understand and respect that viewpoint of marginal incremental betterment, but respectfully do not think it is the path…

“Like I told her, I am thinking of my children. The 2 parties are a joke… a horrible lie,” he continued. “The military and oil companies and banks are who we are voting for – and the media is their propaganda/entertainment wing. [And] with the way they cheated Bernie I see little point in choosing between these puppets… They want you to think it matters. That way nothing will change but it has to change.”

Casablancas’ post was met with widespread criticism in the comments, with fans on sites such as Reddit noting they were “super disappointed” in his decision. Fans on the same site were quick to point out that Casablancas’ bandmate, bassist Nikolai Fraiture, had shared his own sticker from his early voting experiences on Oct. 31.

Casablancas also caught the attention of music fans earlier in the week when he spoke to The Guardian for their ‘Honest Playlist’ feature in support of The Voidz’ new album, Like All Before You. In the discussion, Casablancas reflected on The Strokes’ discography, noting that their breakthrough single “Last Nite” (which peaked at No. 5 on the Alternative Airplay chart in 2002) is a song he can “no longer listen to”.

“‘Last Nite’ by the Strokes is pretty dead to me. I’m not sure why,” he stated. “There are some others like ‘Reptilia’, ‘Hard to Explain’, ‘Someday’, ‘Take It Or Leave it’, ‘New York City Cops’ that are comparable in terms of crowd reaction that I’m not quite as sick of. If I heard it on the radio, I’d probably turn it off.”

The VR Experience You’ve Been Waiting For? What to Know About Meta’s Quest 3S Headset

All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, Billboard may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.

Meta’s most budget friendly mixed-reality headset lives up to the hype. Last month, Meta introduced the Quest 3S headset — a smaller, lighter and more affordable version of the Meta Quest 3 with a few, internal and external upgrades.

For starters, Meta Quest 3S retails for $299 — $200 cheaper than its predecessor. It’s also lighter and more comfortable than Meta Quest 3, and updated with new features such as dynamic spatial audio and increased resolution for Passthrough (which lets you mix your reality with VR).

Meta Quest 3S allows users to stream movies and more on a cinema-sized, VR screen, plus access games such as Beat Saber, Alo Moves XR, Just Dance VR, Wordle and Metro Awakenings along with streaming apps like Prime Video, Peacock, Netflix, Amazon Music, Twitch, YouTube, Xbox Cloud Gaming (available in BETA).

Meta Quest 3S 128GB — Get Batman: Arkham Shadow and a 3-Month Trial of Meta Quest+ Included — All-in-One Headset


The holidays are around the corner, and Meta’s latest VR headset is certainly giftworthy. With Meta Quest 3S users can explore Horizon Worlds’ Music Valley where music fans get a front-row seat to VR performances from Sabrina Carpenter, BLACKPINK, Doja Cat and other recording stars.

One of my main gripes with Meta Quest 3? The headset. It’s heavy and uncomfortable, but the Quest 3S offers a slight improvement on the weight issue along with other, notable upgrades such as adjustable Frensel lenses, a spacer for users who wear glasses and a rebuilt Meta Horizon OS interface with added support for social media apps such as Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.

Quest 3S is incredibly user friendly, especially if you’re already familiar with the Meta portal. Even if you’re unfamiliar, the device will walk you through steps to set things up.

The new 3S features Travel Mode, so you can use it on an airplane (Meta plans to expand it to be used on trains and other modes of travel) and hand tracking, which allows you to use your hands instead of the controllers.

The standard Quest 3S features 128GB of storage, but you can upgrade to the 256GB device for $399.99. Meta Quest 3S is available at major retailers such as Amazon, Target, Walmart, Best Buy and Meta.com.

Taylor Swift’s Mom Andrea Is in Her ‘Chiefs Era’ With Cute Jacket Patch

Andrea Swift is just as big of a Kansas City Chiefs fan as her daughter is.

Taylor Swift’s mom attended the NFL game at Arrowhead Stadium with the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” singer and her son Austin on Monday night (Nov. 4), where she was seen cheering on Tay’s boyfriend, tight end Travis Kelce, and she was seen rocking some adorable Chiefs gear.

In photos from the game circulating X (previously known as Twitter), Andrea is seen sitting inside the VIP suite wearing a black zip-up jacket with “In my Chiefs Era” written in Kansas City’s signature red font. Of course, the slogan is both in reference to the NFL team and her daughter’s record-breaking Eras Tour.

See the photo here.

Taylor, meanwhile, arrived to the game rocking a black tank top and cut-off black denim shorts tied with a belt. She completed the look with an oversized, racer-style Chiefs leather jacket and fold-over, knee-high black boots. See her look here.

In fan videos, she was seen waving and blowing kisses to fans after the game wrapped up. She also jokingly mouthing to the crowd that the game was “stressful” — which makes sense given that the Chiefs beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 30-24 in overtime.

PartyNextDoor Gives Drake Collab Update: ‘The Album Is Getting Finished’

There’s been an update about the upcoming Drake and PartyNextDoor collab album.

PND hopped on his Instagram Live as he wraps up the European leg of his Sorry I’m Outside Tour and revealed his project with his label boss Drake is nearing the finish line. “Guys, I have one more show on this tour,” he told his followers. “Then the album is getting finished. That’s all I gotta say.” His last show across the pond is tomorrow, Nov. 6 at O2 Academy Brixton in London.

Drake and Party announced their joint album back in August while on stage performing together in Toronto. “I know all you girls are outside,” Drake told the crowd. When it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be waiting right there for you.” Party then said that his favorite songs at the moment were the ones he was making with Drake for their upcoming project, telling Awaiz Punjani, “The one we doing right now – all 15 we doing right now.”

Then, last month, engineer and producer OVONoel called the album “a classic,” during a recent appearance on OVO’s The Fry Yiy Show on SiriusXM. “You guys know what’s coming for you,” he said. “Party and Drake have a classic. We trying to put the finishing touches on it, so… Yeah, it’s a jam-packed month for me filled with the thing that I love to do the most, besides being the world’s greatest dad.”

There’s still no official release date, so stay tuned as we’ll be sure to give you an update.

Barry Keoghan Calls Girlfriend Sabrina Carpenter ‘Massively Talented,’ Says He’s ‘Incredibly Blessed’

Barry Keoghan is Sabrina Carpenter’s biggest fan!

The Academy Award-nominated actor discussed his relationship with the “Feather” pop star during a recent episode of Spotify’s The Louis Theroux Podcast, where he was asked directly, “Are you in a relationship with Sabrina Carpenter?” 

“Oh, I knew you’d do this,” Keoghan said with a laugh, before eventually explaining, “Listen, all I’m going to say is I’m incredibly blessed. Such a strong, independent lady who’s massively talented and yeah. Pretty special.”

The pair first sparked dating rumors in late 2023, a few months before making their public debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty in March. Keoghan also starred opposite Carpenter in the music video for her Billboard Hot 100-topping single “Please Please Please,” which is featured on Short n’ Sweet.

After Carpenter dropped the album on Aug. 23, fans were quick to speculate that the Work It star wrote some of the project’s songs about the Irish actor — particularly the NSFW “Bed Chem.” “I was in a sheer dress the day that we met/ We were both in a rush, we talked for a sec,” she sings on the track. “Who’s the cute boy with the white jacket and the thick accent? … Who’s the cute guy with the wide, blue eyes?”

The Saltburn star definitely didn’t curb those rumors when he posted on Instagram Stories that “Bed Chem” is his favorite track on Short n’ Sweet. “just sayin m’darlin,” he added in his post, tagging Carpenter and including a link to her album. “Tap that link lads!!”

Young Miko on Performing With Feid, Creating ‘att.’ & More | Behind The Photo | Billboard

Young Miko takes us ‘Behind the Photo’ and shares what it was like to perform with Feid on the Jimmy Fallon show, her inspiration for ‘att.’ and more!

Young Miko:

Hello, family, how are you? My name is Young Miko and today we are going to go “Behind the Photo.” with Billboard. Here we are on the Jimmy Fallon show with Feid. We sang “Offline” together. It was my first time at the Jimmy Fallon show, so it was very special and it was super fun, a super nice experience. I’m glad I was able to share it with Feid. I mean, when I was a little girl,  I loved to put on band-aids of any character. I think they were like Elmo or from The Simpsons. I thought it was cool to be able to wear colors all over the place and when we made the track “curita” on the album ‘att.’ this was the first thing that popped in my head and I shared it on socials because… I’m here with Mauro, as you can see, my better half, time to make music. This is my brother, I don’t know what would become of me without him. We were in Los Angeles and we were working on ‘att.’ in fact. One of those wonderful days with him in the studio. This was the first time I posted a photo with my somewhat copper hair. Someone Published some lyrics of a song that says: “The red hair with The Rolling Stones T Shirt.”

Kodak Black Makes Strange Appearance on Kai Cenat Stream

Kodak Black spent some time with Kai Cenat on his 30-day Mafiathon Twitch stream recently, leaving fans concerned.

The Florida rapper arrived, put a Haiti scarf on, pulled out a Stanley cup, and got comfortable. The convo started off innocent enough as Kodak revealed that he spoke fluent Haitian Creole and frequently plays FIFA. They then took a tour of Kai’s pad, but once they returned back inside, Kodak’s behavior became increasingly erratic.

At one point he started to kick a freestyle about not wanting sex because he was waiting for the bus as Kai had a concerned look on his face. There was also an instance where one fan suggested that Kai kick him out for acting so weird and posted a clip on X where Kodak had his shirt off and was talking about wanting to watch a movie in the theater room and maybe taking a nap.

Kodak also allegedly popped a pill by throwing it in the air and catching it with his mouth. When Kai noticed and understandably asked, “F—k was that?” Kodak smiled and answered, “That was a glitch for the Twitch.”

During a more wholesome exchange, Kodak admitted to having a crush on both Zendaya and GloRilla, and started to blush when Kai said he was going to Facetime the Memphis rapper.

Streaming for 30 days straight, 24/7 in the month of November, the streamer stated on Instagram that he plans on donating a portion of the money he makes during “Mafiathon 2″ to help build a school in Nigeria. “I visited Nigeria not too long ago & absolutely loved it,” he said in an IG Story post. So, I say that to say this for the next 30 days while I’m streaming 20 percent of all revenue will be going straight to the school that I am still currently building for the kids of Mokoko.”

Cody Carnes & Benjamin William Hastings’ ‘Take You at Your Word’ Tops Christian Airplay Chart

Cody Carnes and Bejamin William Hastings’ “Take You at Your Word” ascends a spot to No. 1 on Billboard’s Christian Airplay chart dated Nov. 9. During the Oct. 25-31 tracking week, the duet increased by 5% to 6.2 million audience impressions, according to Luminate.

Carnes and Hastings co-authored the track with Aodhan King, while Austin Davis and Aaron Robertson co-produced it.

For the 35-year-old Carnes, who has been married to singer-songwriter Kari Jobe since 2014, “Word” marks his first leader among his 11 Christian Airplay appearances. He has three additional top 10s. Most recently, “Firm Foundation (He Won’t)” hit No. 2 this past January, after “Ain’t Nobody” reached No. 2 in April 2023. He earned his first top 10 with his team-up with Jobe and Elevation Worship, “The Blessing: Live” (No. 7, September 2020).

For Hastings, who hails from Belfast, Northern Ireland, and now makes his home in Los Angeles, “Word” is also his first Christian Airplay chart-topper in his fourth try. The 32-year-old hit a prior No. 13 high mark last September with “That’s the Thing About Praise” featuring Blessing Offor.

‘Everything’ You Need to Know

Singer-songwriter Otis Kemp banks his second consecutive career-opening Gospel Airplay No. 1 with “Everything” featuring Lena Byrd Miles (up 13% in plays week-over-week).

The song, which Kemp wrote with Kortni Kemp (his niece) and Candice Caton, follows his rookie breakthrough “Daily Bread,” which led for a week in July 2023.

Miles, who grew up in San Leandro, Calif., and was raised in Oakland, scores her second No. 1 with her fourth Gospel Airplay entry. Her “WOW (Walk on Water)” dominated for three frames in May 2023.

Prince’s Sister Tyka Nelson Dead at 64

Tyka Nelson, Minneapolis singer-songwriter and sister of Prince, has died. She was 64 years old.

Related

President Nelson, Tyka’s son, confirmed the news of his mother’s death to The Minnesota Star Tribune. He declined to offer further details, other than the date of her passing: Monday (Nov. 4).

The daughter of John L. Nelson and Mattie Shaw Nelson, Tyka was the “Purple Rain” singer’s only full sibling. The pair also shared five half-siblings: Sharon Nelson, Norrine Nelson, John R. Nelson, Omarr Baker and Alfred Jackson.

Like her famous brother, Tyka was also a musician. She released four albums from 1988 to 2011, according to the Star Tribune, and she was supposed to have her retirement and farewell concert in June in her home city. Leading up to the show, however, she got sick and dropped out of the performance, telling the publication, “I’m getting older … I really wasn’t a singer. I’m a writer. I just happen to be able to sing. I enjoy singing.”

She also said at the time that she was writing a memoir.

Since Prince died from an accidental fentanyl overdose in 2016, Tyka and her half-siblings had been engaged in a yearslong legal disagreement over the handling of the seven-time Grammy winner’s estate. In July, a Delaware judge ruled against Sharon, Norrine and John’s wishes for advisors L. Londell McMillan and Charles Spicer Jr. to be removed as managers of Prince Legacy LLC, which was created to operate half of Prince’s estate. The three siblings had initially appointed McMillan and Spicer Jr. to their positions and gave each of them a 10% interest in the company, but Sharon later regretted the decision, sparking the lawsuit.

Tyka, Omarr and Alfred, on the other hand, sold their inherited shares of Prince’s estate to Primary Wave. Prince Legacy LLC and Primary Wave split the responsibility of managing the late superstar’s affairs and keeping his legacy alive, something that was paramount to Tyka in her life.

“I’d like for my brother to be remembered as the consummate artist that he is,” she said in a 2018 interview with Studio 10. “He was also a clothes designer and — not only a musician and a singer — but an entertainer and an actor. You’re gonna see a lot more footage of him and hear a lot of his music. I want you to see everything that he kept for you because his life was for you.”

RM Tries to Figure Out Who He Is in New ‘Right People, Wrong Place’ Documentary Trailer

When you’re just one member of a genre-defining pop band such as BTS, how do you make room for just yourself? That’s the question RM finds himself pondering in the newest trailer for his forthcoming documentary RM: Right People, Wrong Place released on Tuesday (Nov. 5).

Related

The new clip follows RM as he performs in studio sessions, takes to massive global stages and kicks back for some well-earned downtime with his friends, all as he wonders where he fits in within the industry he and his bandmates helped shape. “What does it mean to be a K-pop star at 30 years old?” he asks aloud at one point.

Reminiscing about his time with BTS, RM explains that the group thrived because what they were doing was so unprecedented, saying that “not being defined as anything also means you can become anything.” Now, he points out, he’s trying to apply that same standard to himself. “I always pushed my limits,” he explains over footage of himself in the studio. “I’d try to see to what extent I could be truly honest with myself as RM, or as Kim Namjoon.”

According to a press release shared with the trailer, the film will focus on the eight months in which RM wrote and recorded his sophomore solo album, Right People, Wrong Place, while also “reflecting both the continuous challenges of the person he is off the stage (Kim Namjoon) and his genuine commitment to and love for his art.”

RM: Right People, Wrong Place is set to be released globally in theaters on Dec. 5 via CJ 4DPLEX. Tickets will go on sale starting Wednesday (Nov. 6), with a secondary global sale set to open on Nov. 20. Watch the full trailer above, and check out the official poster below:

Illenium Shares the Story of Addiction, Loss & Love Behind His Track ‘Brave Soul’

Three years after its release, Illenium is sharing the emotional backstory behind his track “Brave Soul,” the closer from his 2021 album Fallen Embers.

Related

In a video posted to YouTube Monday (Nov. 4), the producer tells this story alongside Jordan Hamilton, the CEO of Choice House, the Colorado addiction and mental health treatment center for men where Illenium (born Nick Miller) got sober more than a decade ago after an opiate addiction.

“I met Jordan when I was on my long trek of rehabs,” Miller says in the video. “Jordan had two years sober at the time. I had gone through treatment a couple years before that and was just trying to figure out how to live life.” Watch the complete video below.

The pair became friends, with Jordan’s sister Emma, a singer-songwriter, getting introduced to the group. Together, they eventually wrote a song that turned into “Brave Soul,” with this music written in memory of Jordan and Emma’s late brother Braden, who they lost to an overdose in 2018.

“Emma and I shared the love of [being] able to speak through music and heal through music,” Miller says in the clip. “I think that’s a really impactful thing to give back to a person that you love, and give back to yourself.”

Illenium debuted the track at his Trilogy show at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium on July 3, 2021. “It was so sick having you there and having Emma there and being able to give your brother the words from beyond,” Miller says in the video.

“To hear 40,000 people respond to that and to hear his memory, it was a super special special moment,” Hamilton continues of the song, whose lyrics honor his brother memory by saying “here’s to your brave soul/ you fought but you lost hold/ and now I’m alone to face the truth.”

Illenium opened up about his journey of finding sobriety and going on to became a stadium filling artist in his Billboard cover story this past March. Of how addiction effected his relationship with his mom, he said, “Watching that relationship get torn by the s–t you keep doing — at first, it’s like, ‘Why are you on me so much, I’m not even that bad,.’ Then it goes into ‘OK, I can’t stop’ and then it goes into, like, “F–k everyone. I can’t live without it.’ And then you’re just breaking down.”

“For anyone who’s in that place, it feels so horrible in that moment,” Hamilton says in the video, “but if you’re willing to ask for help and take some steps, that’s the jumping off point of where we get better.”

Bad Bunny Shares a Message With the Undecided After Casting His Vote: ‘Listen to Your Heart’

During Puerto Rico’s Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 5, Bad Bunny cast his vote early at Saint John’s School in San Juan. Dressed in a classic salsero style sporting shades, an open-buttoned tee and burgundy pants, the superstar took a moment to address undecided voters. “Listen to your heart,” he advised after submitting his ballot, Telemundo Puerto Rico reported.

“At the end of the day, everybody in Puerto Rico is clear what the best option is,” Bad Bunny continued. “The Puerto Rican people are not brute, they are not dumb. Puerto Ricans are intelligent, they are brave. I am sure they know what is the best decision for Puerto Rico.”

His advice to voters comes just a week after he publicly voiced his support for Juan Manuel Dalmau Ramírez, an attorney and gubernatorial candidate representing the Puerto Rican Independence Party.

“I would tell them to think about their children, think about their grandchildren, think about their future, think about themselves, about those who have left and would like to return, and to listen to their hearts above what lies they want to invent — not to let themselves be deceived,” he added. “That is what I would tell them. I have already said a lot and I have said it from my heart. I am for Puerto Rico.”

In addition to speaking with the media, Benito also took to Instagram Stories to address ongoing issues in Puerto Rico, particularly the challenges faced during previous natural disasters. “The power will go out. The machines will cause problems. It’s raining. But we cannot give up. Let’s exercise our right to vote. And let’s defend it. It will be a long and difficult day, but it will be worth it. Let’s go, Puerto Rico! I have already voted! Go out and vote! For our present and future,” he urged.

He has previously shown his support to Kamala Harris and spoke up when comedian Tony Hinchcliffe referred to the U.S. commonwealth as a “floating island of garbage” during Donald Trump’s Oct. 27 rally in New York’s Madison Square Garden.

Joss Favela & Luis R. Conriquez Take ‘Con Todo Respetillo’ to No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay

Joss Favela crosses off a career milestone as he achieves his first No. 1 on any Billboard chart as “Con Todo Respetillo,” with Luis R. Conriquez, jumps 3-1 to crown the Nov. 9-dated Regional Mexican Airplay chart.

“Con Todo Respetillo” ascends to the summit thanks to gains in audience impressions for the tracking week of Oct. 25-31. The single, released on Sony Music Latin/Azteca, generated 7.1 million impressions in the U.S., up 37% from the week prior, according to Luminate. It also takes the Greatest Gainer honors, awarded weekly to the song with the most airplay among the chart’s 40 titles.

Although “Con Todo Respetillo” secures Favela’s breakthrough to the No. 1 spot on any Billboard chart, the Sinaloan previously registered six other top 10s on Regional Mexican Airplay, reaching as high as No. 2 through “Me Hubiera Dicho” in June 2018.

Conriquez, meanwhile, returns for his third No. 1 with “Respetillo.” The corridos-bélicos singer last achieved his two other No. 1s two years ago, as “JGL,” with La Adictiva,” and “Ya Hiciste Mal,” with Jessie Uribe, both ruled for one week in 2022.

Four other male team-ups have achieved a No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay in 2024: Christian Nodal and Peso Pluma through “La Intención” (April 6), Oscar Ortiz and Edgardo Nuñez with “First Love” (April 27), Alejandro Fernandez and Alfredo Olivas with “Cobijas Ajenas” (June 8), and Leonardo Aguilar and Pepe Aguilar through “Bandido de Amores” (July 6).

Despite their different achievements on Regional Mexican Airplay, Favela and Conriquez, both score their third top 10 on the overall Latin Airplay tally, where “Respetillo” soars 12-4 with the Greatest Gainer honors of the week.

“Con Todo Respetillo” is the only single that previewed Favela’s Mis Compas, Vol. 1 EP, released May 10 via Sony Music Latin. The album has not visited a Billboard chart yet.
