2024 Golden Globes
Odetari and 6arelyhuman are Billboard’s latest cover stars. We recap everything you missed at the 2024 Golden Globes. The 2023 Primetime Emmy Creative Arts Awards were this weekend, and musicians were among the big winners of the night. Ariana Grande took to social media to announce that her new single “Yes, And?” will be out this Friday, The Weeknd is seemingly teasing a new era of music, and Lil Nas X tweets that new music is coming. And more!
Tetris Kelly:It was a huge award weekend with the Golden Globes and the Creative Arts Emmys going down. Ariana Grande, The Weeknd and Lil Nas X tease new music. We revealed this week’s top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. And we kick off a full week of cover stars.
Happy Monday! It’s January 8th. I’m Tetris Kelly and we’ve got, wait for it, five new cover stars this week for our Future of Genres issue. And today’s Future of Electronic cover stars are Odetari and 6arelyhuman.
Odetari:So the first song that I had that went viral I think in, like, one day, I had hit 256,000 streams, which was crazy to me because I had never passed like 10k on a song. But I saw how fast it went up, got really excited, and then the next day it dropped like half so it was like a roller coaster.
6arelyhuman:Once it started to really hit was when I would see a bunch of videos from people just creating things and coming up with their own ideas with the song. I remember specifically one of the things that helped a lot was a South Park edit. I don’t know why, but that’s something that really helped the song take off.
Odetari:A lot of people that were making similar music to us, were not showing their faces at all.
6arelyhuman:Yeah.
Odetari:We made sure to also attach the image to it because a lot of songs that blow up on TikTok, most people just scroll like they’ll hear the song but they don’t really care about it or the person who made it. I feel like we really nailed it on that.
Tetris Kelly:For the full interview, head to Billboard.com. We’ll have a new cover for you every day this week, but it’s time to get to our awards show coverage. If you didn’t catch the Golden Globes last night don’t worry, we got you covered.

It seems safe to say that Jo Koy’s next stand-up special will not be in many Swifties queues. The stand-up who hosted Sunday night’s (Jan. 7) 81st annual Golden Globe Awards got the iciest of stares from Taylor Swift during his opening show monologue after he made a quip about how often the NFL’s cameras […]
For the record, Emma Stone and Taylor Swift have been friends for a long time. And, not for nothing, Stone is one of our finest, and funniest, actors. So it was no surprise on Sunday night (Jan. 7) when Stone took the opportunity backstage at the 2024 Golden Globes to tweak her longtime pal while talking to the press about her Globe win for best performance by a female actor in a motion picture – musical or comedy for her over-the-top role as Bella in Poor Things.
“What an a–hole, am I right?” Stone said jokingly when a reporter asked about Swift’s predictably hyped-up support when her friend of two decades took home one of the night’s big honors. After walking away from the mic, Stone returned and added, “I’ve known her for almost 20 years, so I was very happy she was there. She was also nominated tonight, which was wonderful, and, um, yes, what an a–hole!” Stone repeated with a laugh.
A legendarily supportive awards show attendee, Swift jumped to her feet clapping and cheering for Stone when the actress made her way through the packed floor of the Beverly Hilton to collect her second Globe; eight-time nominee Stone won her first Globe for the 2017 movie musical La La Land.
While Stone, and the oddball Frankenstein-esque pic Poor Things had a good night at the Globes — besting Barbie for best motion picture musical or comedy — Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour concert film lost out to the billion-dollar living doll movie in a new category at the awards show, cinematic and box office achievement.
Stone was obviously tweaking Swift with her comment, but the friends have frequently shown up for each other, with Taylor walking the red carpet last month at the Poor Things premiere, and Stone noting in an interview earlier this year that she caught the Eras Tour three times.
Check out the moment below.
