Karol G is being dubbed the “Bichota Barbie” after arriving at the Barbie movie premiere in Los Angeles on Sunday rocking a sparkly pink halter top and long, groovy-printed skirt.
The Colombian star attended the event at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in support of the film’s soundtrack, where she has a collaboration called “WATATI” with Panamanian artist Aldo Ranks. 

Produced by Ovy on the Drums, the track — which was the second single from the motion picture soundtrack following Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night” — is a hard-hitting reggaeton with EDM tones that finds both Karol and Ranks singing about having a good time at the club.

“WATATI,” which is a popular phrase Ranks says in his songs, has so far peaked at No. 12 on Latin Digital Song Sales on the chart dated July 1. 

Below, read the full lyrics translated to English:

Papi, let’s go to the club to have a good timeA lot of smoke, Aguardiente to get dizzyPapi, let’s go to the club to have a good timeA lot of smoke, Aguardiente to get dizzy

Myke Tower‘s “LALA,” off his album La Vida Es Una, is the latest Spanish-language song to go viral on TikTok. With more than one million posts on the social media platform, the reggaetón-powered song took off on streaming services, including Spotify, where it became the No. 1 song on its Top 50 Global chart on Sunday (May 9).
Released in April, La Vida Es Una captured the Puerto Rican artist his third top 10 studio album on Billboard‘s Top Latin Albums chart. Meanwhile, “LALA” — which finds Myke Towers narrating a NSFW rendezvous with a lover — debuted at No. 25 on the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart and this week, it enters Hot Latin Songs at No. 50.

“I want to show my people that I’m in a new level of creating and I don’t want to keep in my comfort zone,” he explained to Billboard about La Vida Es Una. “Like, I always want to do new things. This album, some people are going to have to listen to it a couple of times to get used to it. People always think of me making only hip-hop or trap music or just like reggaeton, but in this one I want it to be different.”

Below, check out the “Lala” lyrics translated into English:

La-la-la-la-la-laLa-la-la-la-la-laLa-la-la-la-la-laLa-la-la-la

Everything is good, you don’t have to stressI will never leave you aloneI was hooked since the first time I saw herI fell in love when I danced with herShe had been wanting to get close for a long timePut her back against the wallIf I go down she knows what I’ll do

La-la-la-la-la-laYou want it mami (la-la-la-la-la-la)Her eyes change (la-la-la-la-la-la)I look at her and she licks her red lipstick (la-la-la-la-la-la)Her waist is loose (la-la-la-la-la-la)Baby, if I grab you (la-la-la-la-la-la)I’ll take you to new heights (la-la-la-la-la-la)Let me know and I’ll pick you up (la-la-la-la-la-la)

She let me driveYou’ll always know when I arrive to a placeI was crowned since I was littleIt looks good on photo but in person even betterShe took one too many drinksAfter the red wine she took a pauseWhen she was going for her fifthI took her cruising around the neighborhood in the KYMCOWhen they see me up front, they become astonished

She does it aloneShe’s already turning someone else on as this one burns downShe’s calling my attention because she wants me to do it

La-la-la-la-la-laYou want it mami (la-la-la-la-la-la)Her eyes change (la-la-la-la-la-la)I look at her and she licks her red lipstick (la-la-la-la-la-la)Her waist is loose (la-la-la-la-la-la)Baby, if I grab you (la-la-la-la-la-la)I’ll take you to new heights (la-la-la-la-la-la)Let me know and I’ll pick you up (la-la-la-la-la-la)

When something is for you, it’s inevitableBaby, I know you want itLet’s do as if there was no television or cableYour gaze is to blame forThey’re looking at us, let’s goShe told me, “Don’t think about it to much and give it to me”By the look on her face, you can tell she’s enjoying itThe neighbors are looking

I love it when you look madShe fills my bullet cartridgeAnd even left the weapon in the living room I was focused on

La-la-la-la-la-laI’m your Carmelo and you’re my (la-la-la-la-la-la)When I go down (la-la-la-la-la-la)She always asks me (la-la-la-la-la-la)I never stop (la-la-la-la-la-la)She likes the (la-la-la-la-la-la)I make her go crazy with (la-la-la-la-la-la)She touches herself when (la-la-la-la-la-la)Looking at her and doing (la-la-la-la-la-la)

I’m your Carmelo and you’re myWhen I go down She always asks me I never stopShe likes the I make her go crazy with She touches herself when Looking at her and doing

Fuerza Regida is creating a buzz on social media with its latest release “Sabor Fresa,” which translates to “strawberry flavor.”
In the new corrido, the Mexican-American group chants about being a lady’s man and attracting the prettiest girls in town. In the NSFW music video, lead vocalist Jésus Ortiz Paz (JOP) is seen channeling a plastic surgeon who works at day and parties with his clients at night. 

To back up the song and video’s concept, JOP even launched a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) giveaway on TikTok, encouraging fans to use the #SaborFresa sound and hashtag to participate. 

But beyond its witty lyrics, catchy rhythm and the giveaway, “Sabor Fresa” debuts at No. 3 on Billboard‘s Hot Latin Songs chart, becoming the group’s highest debut to date, and its third top 10.

Below, check out the full lyrics translated to English:

Waiter, bring champagneThat I want to please the ladies in the backThey already saw me dancingWith the moves I have, I was able to impress them

The girls are qualityWith a small waist, they like to dance sexyThe lady kisses and kisses meStrawberry, strawberry flavor, she wants to get dirty

How do you see it, my comradeIf we go to the pool?Let them take off their expensive clothesConfirm it, carnal, we managed to crown

I like to hang out with the crewLots of operated, preppy girlsLet them take off their expensive clothesWe don’t quit here, always at war

How is it morning already?Darn poison, it has me sleeplessAn aguachile (Mexican dish) at the portFrom Muchacho Alegre, they open for me whenever

I already confessed to the rosaryMijo, you are great, walk without fearDon’t get wavy on meBecause I don’t think about it nor does my finger tremble

How do you see it, my comradeIf we go to the pool?Let them take off their expensive clothesConfirm it, carnal, we managed to crown

I like to hang out with the crewLots of operated, preppy girlsLet them take off their expensive clothesWe don’t quit here, always at war

And here are the original Spanish lyrics:

Mesero, traiga champagneQue quiero complacer las babies de atrásYa me vieron al bailarCon el paso que cargo logré apantallarLas morras de calidadCon una cinturita, les gusta perrearLa niña me besa y besaFresa, sabor fresa, quiere bellaquear
¿Cómo la ve, mi camaradaSi nos vamos pa’ la albercada?Que se quiten la ropa caraAfírmale, carnal, logramos coronarMe gusta andar con la plebadaPuras fresitas operadasQue se quiten la ropa caraAquí no le bajamos, siempre beliqueando
Otro pedoComo siempre viejoFuerza Regida
¿Cómo que va amaneciendo?Bendito veneno, me tiene sin sueñoUn aguachile en el puertoDe El Muchacho Alegre, me abren cuando quieroYa me confesé el rosarioMijo, tú eres grande, camina sin miedoNo se me pongan ondeadosPorque no la pienso ni me tiembla el dedo
¿Cómo la ve, mi camaradaSi nos vamos pa’ la albercada?Que se quiten la ropa caraAfírmale, carnal, logramos coronarMe gusta andar con la plebadaPuras fresitas operadasQue se quiten la ropa caraAquí no le bajamos, siempre beliqueando

Peso Pluma is making the rounds with his new album Génesis, home to 14 tracks that include collaborations with Natanael Cano and Luis R. Conriquez, to name a few, and the previously released bangers “Rosa Pastel” with Jasiel Nuñez, the Eladio Carrión-assisted “77,” and “Bye.”
From the set, one of the most popular tracks among fans is “Lady Gaga,” his collaboration with Junior H and newcomer Gabito Ballesteros. The song tells the story of a luxurious lifestyle with lots of money, beautiful women and private yachts, but that’s kept under the radar.

With less than one day of activity, following its off-cycle release late on Thursday, June 22 (the final day of the chart’s tracking week), Génesis scored Peso his first top 10 entry on the Regional Mexican Albums chart.

Below, check out the translated lyrics and the Spanish lyrics to “Lady Gaga”:

Don Perignon Lady Gaga, Glasses on the faceDrugged and washed Tripled washed, and a bandit who calls me, she wants my moneyAnd it’s not bad because she seduces me like an animalNo one uploads anything to Instagram, they just enjoy, they just enjoy

A bunch of flashy influencers, the ones we sail and flyOn private islands on a yacht, we flip the dollar bills, and without YolandaI’m going to party, little pink powder, little wax featherThat waist is worth 30k, you can’t pay it, you can’t afford itLiving in the San Andreas, but for realCars and moneyThose stars got my code, they challenged meDrugs and cocaine, I like the Lambo but I use the MercedesShe is very beautiful and she lets herself be loved, she likes hundreds and wants my Cartier

Eleven, lucky number seven Well alert and we’re going strongBuzzing in the RZR, masks, dust, and vibeMy teeth shineI’m not preppyBut in Egypt, I smoke shishasFor fresh seafood, JapanTira jodido, lira jodidónMakabelico playing, the blonds dancing with a delinquent beatA bunch of hooded bellicose chicksNothing happens, no one stops themWho are they? I ask myself the same questionEach salute carries big moneyAll in Louis Vuitton with a heck of a flow

Don Perignon Lady Gaga, Glasses on the faceDrugged and washed Tripled washed, and a bandit who calls me, she wants my moneyAnd it’s not bad because she seduces me like an animalNo one uploads anything to Instagram, they just enjoy, they just enjoy

Original Spanish lyrics to “Lady Gaga”:

Dom Pérignon, Lady Gaga, lentes en la cara, tussi y lavadaTriple lavada, y una bandida que me llama, quieren mi lanaY no está mal, porque me seduce como animalNinguna sube nada al InstagramSolo disfrutan, solo disfrutan
Pura influencer bien placosa, las que navegamos y las volamosIslas privadas en yate, tronamos las pacas y sin YolandaMe vo’a enfiestar, polvito rosa, plumita de waxEsa cintura vale 30k, no puedes pagar, no te va a alcanzar
Viviendo en el San Andrés, pero de a deberas, carros y feriaTres estrellas me atoraron la clave en caliente, desafanaronTussi y cocaineMe gusta el Lambo, pero es el MercedEsa es muy bella y se deja quererLe gustaría si alguien quiere mi Cartier
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, ahAh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah
Y así nomás, compa Peso, compa JuniorCompa Gabito, Doble P, uh, cha-chauPura Doble P, viejilloQue siga la mata dando, compa JuniorCompa Gabito
Once, número de suerteSiete bien pendientes y andamos fuertesZumbando en el Razer, máscaras, polvo y ambienteBrillan mis dientesNo soy fresón, pero en Egipto shishas fumo yoPara mariscos frescos en JapónMira jodido, ‘ira, jodidón
Makabelico sonando, las güeras bailando con beat malandroPura encapuchada bélica, no pasa nada, nadie las paga¿Que quiénes son? Eso mismito me pregunto yoCada saludo lleva un billetónPura Louis Vuitton, trae un flow cabrón
Dom Pérignon, Lady Gaga, lentes en la cara, tussi y lavadaTriple lavada, y una bandida que me llama, quiere mi lanaY no está mal, porque me seduce como animalNinguna sube nada al InstagramSolo disfrutan, solo disfrutan
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, ahAh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

The U.S. Supreme Court said Monday that it would not take up a lawsuit claiming Google stole millions of song lyrics from the music database Genius.

Genius — a popular platform that lets users add and annotate lyrics — had asked the justice to revive allegations that Google improperly used the site’s carefully-transcribed content for its search results. The company argued that a ruling dismissing the case last year had been “unjust” and “absurd.”

But in an order dated Monday, the court denied Genius’s petition to hear the case, cementing Google’s victory. As is typical, the court did not issue a written ruling explaining the denial. Such petitions are always a long shot, as the Supreme Court takes less than 2% of the 7000 cases it receives each year.

Genius sued the tech giant in 2019, claiming Google had stolen the site’s carefully-transcribed content for its own “information boxes” that appear alongside search results — essentially free-riding on the “time, labor, systems and resources” that go into creating such a service. In a splashy twist, Genius said it had used a secret code buried within lyrics that spelled out REDHANDED to prove Google’s wrongdoing.

Though it sounds like a copyright case, Genius didn’t actually accuse Google of stealing any intellectual property. That’s because it doesn’t own any; songwriters and publishers own the rights to lyrics, and both Google and Genius pay for the same licenses to display them. Instead, Genius argued it had spent time and money transcribing and compiling “authoritative” versions of lyrics, and that Google had breached the site’s terms of service by “exploiting” them without permission.

In March 2022, that distinction proved fatal for Genius. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit dismissed the case, ruling that only the actual copyright owners — songwriters or publishers — could have filed such a case, not a site that merely transcribed the lyrics. In technical terms, the court said the case was “preempted” by federal copyright law, meaning that the accusations from Genius were so similar to a copyright claim that they could only have been filed that way.

In taking the case to the Supreme Court, Genius argued the ruling would be a disaster for websites that spend time and money to aggregate user-generated content online. Such companies should be allowed to protect that effort against clear copycats, the company said, even if they don’t hold the copyright. “Big-tech companies like Google don’t need any assists from an overly broad view of copyright preemption,” the company wrote.

But last month, the U.S. Solicitor General advised the Supreme Court to steer clear of the case. It said Genius’s lawsuit was a “poor vehicle” for reviewing the issues in the case, and that the lower court did not appear to have done anything particularly novel when it dismissed the case against Google. Such recommendations are usually very influential on whether the justices decide to tackle a particular case.

Lawmakers in New York have introduced a new bill that will prohibit the use of rap lyrics in criminal trials as evidence by prosecutors – an issue recently highlighted across the nation.

In January of this year, New York State Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Assemblymember Catalina Cruz brought forth S1738, known as the “Rap Music on Trial” bill. The goal of the bill is to prevent prosecutors in criminal trials from using lyrics from songs by the defendant in those trials as proof of guilt for the crimes they’re charged with. “Protecting artistic freedom and expression is paramount for our country, but in particular New York City, where we are the cultural capital of the world,” Hoylman-Sigal said to the press. “Rap music has been targeted by prosecutors, mainly because it would seem that there’s racial bias.”

The bill wouldn’t be isolated to only rap music, but the music genre has been the most targeted by prosecutors in cases across the country as social media has made sharing rap videos easier with a farther reach. An essay in the New York Times last year detailed the timeline for the increase of rap lyrics being used since 2005. The RICO case brought against Young Thug in Georgia is currently the most prominent example as lyrics from nine of his songs were cited in the indictment.
Governor Gavin Newsom of California signed the Decriminalizing Artistic Expression Act into law last September. Congressman Jamaal Bowman of New York and Hank Johnson of Georgia re-introduced the Restoring Artistic Protection, or RAP Act to the House of Representatives in April. That bill has not gone beyond a referral to the House Judiciary Committee.
An earlier version of New York’s state bill was introduced in 2021 with heavy support from artists including Jay-Z, Big Sean, and Meek Mill among others. But it didn’t advance to being passed in the Assembly. The hope is that the current bill will pass this current session, which ends on Thursday (June 8th). The state Senate did approve S1738 on May 15th, which Hoylman-Sigal said gives a “boost of confidence and momentum” that it will make it to Governor Kathy Hochul to be signed into law.

The infectious EDM-merengue fusion, which dropped on March 2, finds Turizo singing about not getting over an ex and drinking his sorrows away.   

Additionally, “El Merengue”—named after the traditional Dominican music genre—reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Tropical Airplay chart (dated April 8). The song sent Turizo’s own “La Bachata”  to No. 2 after 14 weeks in charge.

Below, check out the complete lyrics translated into English:

I’m tired of thinking about youWith my heart brokenThere’s sun but it’s cold since you leftI’m only drinkingLooking at your photosWanting to delete them but I can’t

I should’ve said I’m sorryTo not hold anything backThe kisses I didn’t give youI should’ve stolen them from youMissing you has meWith my eyes redIt’s not the same as being aloneThan being alone and in love

I said I forgot about youBut I didn’t forget youAy, ay, ayI also said I got over youBut I haven’t gotten over youDrunk I said I forgot about youBut I didn’t forget youAy, ay, ayI also said I got over youBut I haven’t gotten over you

Entering the club, I saw her, I saw her, I saw herShe was dancing aloneDancing aloneI got close, I got close, I got closeAnd the hours flew byA couple of hours

Tell me, without shame tell meAsk me whatever you want Except to forget about youWhen one is drinkingThey don’t measure words Today I apologizeIf one day drunk

I said I forgot about youBut I didn’t forget yoAy, ay, ayI also said I got over youBut I haven’t gotten over youDrunk I said I forgot about youBut I didn’t forget youAy, ay, ayI also said I got over youBut I haven’t gotten over you

The Restoring Artistic Protection Act, largely known as the RAP Act, was previously introduced by Congressmen Hank Johnson (GA-04) and Jamaal Bowman (NY-16). If signed into law, the RAP Act would offer artists some protections regarding their lyrics being used to try a criminal case in court.
On April 28, Congressmen Johnson and Bowman issued a press release announcing their attention to bring the RAP Act bill back to the House floor for debate. The bill was introduced in the 117th Congress and is the first of its kind to reach the federal level.

From the press release:

“This legislation is long overdue,” said Congressman Johnson. “For too long, artists – particularly young Black artists – have been unfairly targeted by prosecutors who use their lyrics as evidence of guilt, even though there is no evidence that the lyrics are anything more than creative expression. When you allow music and creativity to be silenced, you’re opening the door for other realms of free speech to be curtailed as well. The government should not be able to silence artists simply because they write, draw, sing, or rap about controversial or taboo subjects. The Restoring Artistic Protection Act (RAP Act) would protect artists’ First Amendment rights by limiting the admissibility of their lyrics as evidence in criminal and civil proceedings.”
“Rap, hip-hop and every lyrical musical piece is a beautiful form of art and expression that must be protected,” said Congressman Jamaal Bowman Ed.D. (NY-16). “I am proud to introduce the RAP Act alongside Rep. Hank Johnson. Our judicial system disparately criminalizes Black and brown people, including Black and brown creativity. For example, Tommy Munsdwell Canady is a young 17-year-old kid serving a life sentence whose conviction heavily relied upon lyrics he wrote. I was deeply moved to hear that Mr. Canady continues to pursue his art in the face of our carceral systems that would otherwise stifle Black art. He is not an outlier. Evidence shows when juries believe lyrics to be rap lyrics, there’s a tendency to presume it’s a confession, whereas lyrics for other genres of music are understood to be art, not factual reporting. This act would ensure that our evidentiary standards protect the First Amendment right to freedom of expression. We cannot imprison our talented artists for expressing their experiences nor will we let their creativity be suppressed.”
The press release added that over 500 criminal cases have used rap lyrics in court against defendants.
A bevy of music industry figures, such as Kevin Liles and groups like the Black Music Action Coalition have placed their support behind the RAP Act bill.
The press release can be viewed here, along with the bill.

I have 1% leftAnd I’ll use it to tell you how sorry I am.That if they see me with another at a club, I’m just wasting timeBaby, why am I lying to you?That they saw me happy is not true

nothing makes me laugh anymoreOnly when I see the photos and videos I have of youI went out with another to forget you, and she had the perfume that you likeI light it up to go to sleepBecause I sleep better if I dream that you are hereIf you knew that I wrote to youI have not sent the messages, they are all still thereWow, how much it has cost meMaybe I did you a favor when I left your sideDrunk looking at your photos. It hurts to see that you have improvedYou don’t have gray days, and the scars no longer hurtAnd I am thinking whether to tell you that

I have 1% leftAnd I’ll use it to tell you how sorry I am.That if they see me with another at a club, I’m just wasting timeBaby, why am I lying to you?That they saw me happy is not true, (hey)

I haven’t thought about you in a long timeDrunk, your Insta I checkedBaby, I already know that you are doing wellThat you don’t have to know about me, hey, heyLiving in a hell that I set on fire myselfPlaying with you as if it were the tenI feel that I am no longer in your heart, now I am at your feet’Begging you, drowning in tequilaThe boys’ are asking me outI have a good time, but I always end up missing youDrowning in tequila, hey‘Las morritas’ texting me, heyWhere is the peda today, but
