Rosé & Jisoo jet off to France, Jennie teases new music, and LISA’s performing at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. We run through all the latest updates of the girls from BLACKPINK.

Narrator:

From fashion to music to fan meetups, the girls of BLACKPINK are busy, busy, busy. Jennie posted a video to her IG seemingly teasing new music with the caption, “CALLING ALL PRETTY GIRL,” to which Jisoo responded with a hands up emoji. That pretty girl was just in Paris at Dior’s Paris Fashion Week where she posed with LISA’s collaborator Rosalía. Also in France, Rosé had a blast at Yves Saint Laurent’s show with friends, and sat front row with Nicole Richie. And while it’s been more of a quiet week for LISA, after releasing two songs and performing at the VMAs, she has announced she’s performing at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show and doing fan meetups in Asia in the coming months, so there’s plenty of BLACKPINK in your area.

Tyga reached a new milestone when “Taste,” his song with Offset, became his first diamond-certified record. Keep watching to see how both the rappers reacted!

Tetris Kelly:

Tyga gets a taste of the Diamond Club. Tyga earned his first diamond plaque earlier this week. The RIAA announced on Tuesday that “Taste” featuring Offset is now 10 times platinum. T-Raww celebrated the achievement by posing with his new plaque alongside Empire executives Ghazi and Nima Etminan. He captioned the clip thanking his fans. “Taste just went diamond 10x platinum. Thank you to everyone that streamed it and twerked to it.” The RIAA returned the favor on X writing, “Get a #Taste of your first RIAA Diamond certification! Congratulations Tyga on this incredible milestone!” Offset was also happy to hear the news. It’s the first diamond entry for the Atlanta native too. He expressed his excitement on X. “Man this is big to me,” Offset wrote in response to a tweet, with the Migos rapper also adding, “Went diamond today God is good.” The wet and wild pool party music video currently boasts more than 1.5 billion views produced by D.A. Got That Dope. The anthem reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, to give Tyga his third top 10 entry of his career.

At RUMBAZO 2024, latin singers like Arcángel, De la Ghetto, Luis R Conriquez and more answer who they would choose to spend 24 hours with in Las Vegas.

Arcángel:

I never had the chance to see Celine Dion live. And the other day I saw that she retired, right?

De La Ghetto:

Wow, with Arcángel, my brother. He’s here, but you know I got stuff to do tomorrow. If not, we’d party all night probably.

Luis R Conriquez:

With Peso Pluma. Like this. By the neck.

Octavio Cuadras:

If I’m going to spend 24 hours to have fun, I feel like I would match with Arcángel.

Lupita Infante:

With Majo, Camila, Chiquis.Imagine all of us in Vegas, that would be so amazing. 

Codiciado:

Marc Anthony. No doubt. Go grab a few whiskeys. And write some songs.  

Octavio Cuadras:

But if it’s with an artist that’s my crush. It will have to be with Billie Eilish. All week I can stay if she wants me to.

Metro Boomin has addressed the Kendrick Lamar and Drake feud while speaking at Forbes Under 30. Keep watching to see what he had to say about his role in the feud and more!

Metro Boomin:
Even if just keeping it on music and it’s like not serious how everybody tries to make it, you know what I’m saying?

Tetris Kelly:
Metro Boomin had some interesting thoughts on the Kendrick and Drake battle that he and Future helped kick off. While sitting down with Matt Craig during the Forbes Under 30 summit, the multiplatinum producer out of St. Louis blamed a certain sect of fans for taking the fun out of the beef.

Metro Boomin:
I feel like the competition is great for the game. Hip-hop has always been more of a competitive genre. But I just feel like more today it’s more like stan culture. It makes it kind of weird. 

Tetris Kelly:
He then used the legendary battle between Nas and Jay-Z as an example. 

Metro Boomin:
Because back in the day, Jay-Z and Nas went at it, but I was a fan of both of ‘em. The internet just makes it a little too wild now. 

Tetris Kelly:
As far as being considered the catalyst, he took a more diplomatic approach. 

Metro Boomin:
But I feel like it’s good for the game, and as far as me being diplomatic, it’s just entertainment at the end of the day. 

Tetris Kelly:
And like the Spider-Man movie he crafted the soundtrack for, he knows with great power comes great responsibility.

Metro Boomin:
This is our era, so it’s really our responsibility to keep pushing it forward for the next one and so forth.

Lady Gaga just announced her Joker companion album, and did she hint at a Bad Bunny/Rosalía collab in the near future? Keep watching for all the details!

Tetris Kelly:
Could Lady Gaga be collabing with Bad Bunny and Rosalía? Well she just announced a new album, and if it’s up to her, it’s definitely a possibility. 

Lady Gaga:
I’m actually a very big Bad Bunny fan. 

Tetris Kelly:
Gaga told ¡Despierta América! not only is she a fan, she’d love to collab with Bad Bunny. She also told the morning show she thinks Rosalía is a great artist. We know Bad Bunny is a fan of Gaga as well, when she made a surprise appearance on SNL to intro his performance. You could tell just by the look on his face how excited he was. He even told E! News that he listens to Chromatica when he’s feeling lonely. 

Bad Bunny: 
That album makes me feel more happy. When she dropped that album, I was in a really good moment. Enjoying my life. So I love that album.

Tetris Kelly:
As for Rosalía, Gaga has proven to be a fan, using “Bizcochito” on her TikTok and her IG, while Rosalía once posted a video of her singing “Alejandro.” So we’re pretty much halfway to a collab, right? Por favor. They aren’t likely to be on her newly announced Joker companion album, but a little monster can dream.
