LISA’s set to make her first solo festival appearance, while Jennie apologizes for vaping. Here’s what the women of BLACKPINK are up to.

LISA just earned her first Global 200 excluding the U.S. No. 1 with “ROCKSTAR,” and now she’s heading to New York. Lalisa will join the likes of Doja Cat, Jelly Roll, Post Malone and Rauw Alejandro when she takes the stage as a headliner at the Global Citizen Festival in Central Park on Sept. 28.

Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Megan’ Charges to No. 1 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart

Megan Thee Stallion’s new album Megan launches at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, giving the rapper her second career champ. Her new set crowns the list dated July 13 and arrives with 64,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. for the tracking week of June 28 – July 4, according to Luminate. The total marks the biggest debut, by units, for any rap album released by a woman in 2024.

Of Megan’s 64,000 first-week sum, streaming activity contributes 47,000 units – equal to 62.3 million official on-demand U.S. streams for the album’s songs. The figure translates into a No. 5 debut on the Top Streaming Albums chart, where it ranks as the week’s highest-charting rap album. 16,000 of Megan’s units come from traditional album sales — giving the artist her best-ever sales week — and the remaining 1,000 derive from track-equivalent units. (One unit equals the following levels of consumption: one album sale, 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams for a song on the album.)

Trending on Billboard

With Megan, Megan Thee Stallion nets her second No. 1 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, after Good News debuted atop the chart in 2020 for its sole week in charge. Beyond the two chart-toppers, the Houston-bred rapper has collected four top 10 projects: Fever (No. 6 in 2019), Suga (No. 6, 2020), Something for Thee Hotties: From Thee Archives (No. 3, 2021) and Traumazine (No. 3, 2022).

Plus, Megan Thee Stallion becomes only the sixth female rapper to achieve multiple leaders on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. She joins Nicki Minaj (who has four No. 1 albums), Eve, Missy Elliott (each with three), Da Brat and Foxy Brown (two each).

Elsewhere, Megan starts at No. 1 on the Top Rap Albums chart, where it likewise secures the rapper a second champ, and at No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200. On the latter, Megan becomes the first top 10-charting rap set by a woman released this year.



Five Megan cuts debut on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, led by “Otaku Hot Girl” at No. 20. (It’s also the album’s most-streamed song for the week, with 7.5 million official U.S. streams.) “Mamushi,” featuring Yuki Chiba, begins at No. 21, followed by “Where Them Girls At” (No. 24), “Accent,” featuring GloRilla (No. 42) and “Rattle” (No. 47).

In addition to the new arrivals, three previously released Megan tracks have appeared on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs: “Cobra,” which reached No. 10 last November, “Hiss,” a one-week No. 1 in February and “Boa,” which peaked at No. 13 in May. Thanks to the album’s streaming activity, “Boa” re-enters the chart at No. 27 and “Hiss” returns at No. 38.

Grupo Firme Replaces Itself at No. 1 on Latin Airplay With ‘El Beneficio De La Duda’

A week after Grupo Firme scored its first career No. 1 on Latin Airplay, the group replaces itself at the summit with new single “El Beneficio De La Duda,” as the song flies 24-1 on the July 13-dated list. The new leader follows the one-week reign of “Te Va a Doler,” the group’s first collab with Thalia.

“We are grateful to our audience for supporting each one of our crazy ideas,” Eduin Caz, lead singer for Grupo Firme, tells Billboard. “Both songs are completely different and the fact that they have accepted them as such, to take them to No. 1 one after the other is incredible and only motivates us to keep going.”

Trending on Billboard

“El Beneficio De La Duda” scores 6.2 million audience impressions, up 56%, earned during the June 28-July 4 tracking week, according to Luminate. “Te Va a Doler,” meanwhile, falls to No. 26 with a 48% decline in audience (down 48%) after one week on top.

Thanks to the 56% gain in audience, “El Beneficio De La Duda” takes home the Greatest Gainer trophy, a weekly award for the song with the largest increase in audience among the 50-title radio ranking. A pair of California stations lead the way with the most plays, KLAX in Los Angeles and KRZZ in San Francisco, in the latest tracking week, while KFZO in Dallas, rounds up the top three.



“El Beneficio De La Duda,” composed by singer-songwriter Joss Favela and released May 28 via Music VIP, grants the label its first ruler on the overall Latin radio ranking. Music VIP came close when “Que Onda Perdida,” another Grupo Firme song, with Gerardo Coronel, reached No. 3 in July 2023.

“For us, it is wonderful to continue to represent our Mexican music in the highest possible way,” Music VIP’s Isael Gutiérrez, founder and CEO of Music VIP Entertainment, tells Billboard. “Every achievement and every record we break drives us to keep innovating and creating music that continues to break boundaries.”

As “El Beneficio” lands at the summit on the overall Latin radio tally, Grupo Firme replaces itself at No. 1, the second act to achieve the feat in 2024, following Myke Towers whose “Borracho y Loco” with Yandel ceded the throne to his own “La Falda,” after the latter’s one week in charge (Feb. 24-dated list).

Beyond its Latin Airplay coronation, “El Beneficio” takes the lead on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart, for the group’s 10th No. 1 there, tying with Christian Nodal for second-most champs this decade, both trailing only Calibre 50’s 11 No. 1s since 2020.

“When Joss Favela sent me the first take of the song, he simulated the accordion with his voice because the song wasn’t produced yet,” Caz adds. “I still liked how his voice hummed the melody and decided to incorporate it, and that is one of the most special details of the song.”

Grupo Firme, comprising Eduin and Johnny Caz, Abraham Hernandez, Joaquin Ruiz, Christian Gutierrez, Jose Rubio and Dylan Camacho, celebrates its second No. 1 on the heels of the group’s La Última Peda Tour 2024, the 32-date run that launched in San Antonio, Texas on May 10 and will wrap up Nov. 2 at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.

Rema released his debut album, Rave & Roses, in March 2022, which included his breakthrough smash “Calm Down” that later received a remix with Selena Gomez.

Jenni Rivera’s Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Vandalized Shortly After Its Reveal

Just two weeks after its unveiling by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, the Hollywood Walk of Fame star dedicated to the late Jenni Rivera was vandalized with black paint.

Famously known as La Diva de La Banda, the Mexican-American singer was honored with a star on the illustrious walkway in front of Capitol Records on June 27. By Monday afternoon (July 8), Rivera’s daughter Jacquelin Marin Rivera — who serves as CEO of Jenni Rivera Enterprises — reported to her Instagram followers via a series of Instagram Stories that the star had been smeared with black paint, alongside another star dedicated to the late legend Selena Quintanilla.

“Through a fan from Texas, I found out they vandalized my mom’s star in Hollywood,” Rivera said in Spanish via her stories. “They went to visit and when they got there, it was completely covered in black paint. Obviously I was angry, I was pissed off. But they sent me pictures and videos, and the fans started cleaning up the stars. It was not only my mom’s star that was vandalized, but also Selena’s, and they cleaned both stars as best they could. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce who are in charge of taking care of the stars are already cleaning them professionally.”

Trending on Billboard

Both artists proudly showcased their Mexican-American heritage through their music, and largely contributed to the global reach of Latin music. Selena Quintanilla was murdered in 1995, and Jenni Rivera died in a plane crash in 2012.

The Hollywood Walk of Fame Instagram account stated that they have dispatched Terrazzo star maker Vince to conduct repairs. They expressed gratitude towards fans who attempted to clean the star and reported the incident. They also noted that the area is under surveillance with numerous cameras and that a police report has been filed.

“I cannot with this. Smh,” commented Chiquis Rivera, Jenni Rivera’s other daughter, on the Hollywood Walk of Fame Instagram post. “Thank you for my momma’s fans that took the time to help clean it up. Shame on the person/people who did this.”

Jenni Rivera entered more than 30 songs on the Regional Mexican Airplay, 15 of those hit the top 10. On the Hot Latin Songs chart, she placed a total of 25 songs, two hit the top 10: “Ahora Que Estuviste Lejos” and “La Misma Gran Señora.”

Shakur Stevenson’s Beef With Cam’ron & Mase Explained

We detail the back-and-forth that exploded on social media last night and carried over to this morning.

Boxer Shakur Stevenson is mad about everyone calling him boring.  

Over the weekend, in his hometown of Newark, the 27-year-old lightweight fought major underdog Artem Harutyunyan and cruised to an easy victory. However, what should’ve been a celebratory time for the young fighter has turned a bit sour, because his performance is being criticized once again for being lacking in the excitement department. You see, Stevenson is a defensive mastermind, and takes boxing’s thesis — hit and don’t get hit — a little too seriously for some fans to stomach. 

During his last fight, versus Edwin de Los Santos, neither fighter landed double-digit punches in any round — and during his fight with Harutyunyan, Shakur’s corner wanted him to be more aggressive. There’s even footage of fans leaving the Prudential Center before the fight finished, with the Newark native winning in a unanimous decision.

Former boxer and current analyst Tim Bradley criticized Stevenson for not listening to his corner on Saturday night (July 6), saying, “The only thing he didn’t do was stop him because he got into an argument with his corner. That right there, you got to fix.”

Emotions boiled over yesterday, as Stevenson took offense to Mase saying he’s not a fan of his boxing style during a segment of his sports talk show It Is What It Is. Shakur took to X and began ranting about the rapper and cultural commentator, and responding to users who engaged with him. He went on well into the night with It Is What It Is, even responding on their Instagram account, with the two hosts talking about the ongoing drama on their show this morning.

Here’s rundown of the action so far. 

Sophie Turner Shares Her ‘Hot Girl Summer’ Activities Post Joe Jonas Split

Sophie Turner is living her best hot girl summer.

The Game of Thrones superstar sat down with Harper’s Bazaar for a story published this week, in which she revealed that her summer plans are full of spending time with friends as well as her two daughters, whom she shares with ex-husband Joe Jonas: three-year-old Willa and one-year-old Delphine. “My recipe for a hot-girl summer is pretty much playing with my kids, hanging out with my best friends, drinking some cocktails—you know, which ones—and enjoying the sun, long may it last. As long as the sun’s out, I’m a happy chap,” she told the publication.

Elsewhere in the interview, she shared what she’s into style-wise. “My summer aesthetic is the three Cs: cool, chic, and comfy. I don’t want any underboob sweat,” she revealed. “I’ve been going on Depop a lot. That’s where I get most of my clothes now. It’s sustainable, but it’s actually quite unhealthy because now I scroll through it like a person would scroll through Instagram; it’s equally addicting, and it sets me up for bankruptcy.”

Turner’s hot girl summer comes less than a year after Jonas filed for divorce in September. At the time, the duo shared a joint statement calling the split a “united decision” and writing, “We have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage.” However, shortly after, Turner sued Jonas for the “wrongful retention” of their two children in New York. They soon tentatively resolved their custody battle after a four-day mediation period. “After a productive and successful mediation, we have agreed that the children will spend time equally in loving homes in both the U.S. and the UK.,” they said in a joint statement shared with Billboard. “We look forward to being great co-parents.”

The former couple met in 2016, and married in two ceremonies in 2019. The first was a surprise Las Vegas wedding in May that they held immediately after attending the Billboard Music Awards, where the Jonas Brothers had just performed.
