By the time surging newcomer Zach Top released his debut country album, Cold Beer & Country Music, in April, the 27-year-old singer-songwriter was already seeing a groundswell of support from fans and his fellow artists. With his unabashed devotion to traditional country sounds on songs like “Bad Luck” and “There’s The Sun,” matched with his unmistakably country drawl, the singer-songwriter from Sunnyside, Wash., has drawn comparisons to such ’90s country luminaries as Alan Jackson, Doug Stone and one of his musical heroes, Keith Whitley.

Top, who is signed with label Leo33 and managed and published by Major Bob Music, has been on tour with reigning CMA entertainer of the year Lainey Wilson since May. He was a guest at Dierks Bentley’s early September headlining show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena and most recently teamed with bluegrass luminary Billy Strings to release a trio of collaborations for Apple Music.

As Top’s “Sounds Like the Radio” continues to grow on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart, reaching a new No. 16 high on the Nov. 9-dated list, another track from Cold Beer & Country Music has also grown into a chart hit: “I Never Lie.” After the slow grooving, sarcastic song became his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 in September (it has since reached a No. 68 high), his team pushed “I Never Lie” to country radio. It debuted on Country Airplay in late October, giving Top two songs simultaneously on the ranking — a feat more typically reserved for arena- and stadium-headlining stars in the genre.

He’s up for new artist of the year at the CMA Awards later this month, and his rising career has led to additional dates to his 2025 Cold Beer & Country Music Tour, which launches Jan. 16 in Nebraska, with openers Jake Worthington and Cole Goodwin.

Billboard caught up with Top to discuss “I Never Lie” reaching new chart heights, as well as his thoughts on his upcoming CMA Award nomination for new artist of the year and who he thinks will take home the entertainer of the year honor.

“I Never Lie” was included on your debut studio album, Cold Beer & Country Music. How did the song come together?

I wrote it with Carson Chamberlain and Tim Nichols. I have one of my more clever rhymes on there, with the “Angel” and “April” rhyme in the first verse [“You still look like an angel/I heard you’re doin’ fine, got promoted back in April”]. We cut it pretty old-school with the band, and I sang and tracked the vocals as they were playing. They never hear the song until the day we record it. I’ll have an acoustic recording of it on my phone, and they hear it once or twice, and that’s it. It’s two or three takes and we play it like we feel it. We might overdub a thing or two or add some fills, but it’s all played live, nothing computerized about it. Carson produced it and [engineer] Matt [Rovey] mixed it up.

What has been your reaction to it connecting with fans on this level?

It may be the countriest song on the record. It sticks out and there’s nothing but steel guitar on there — you haven’t heard a song like that, sonically, in a long time. I think people have had an appetite for my kind of country for a little while, and we’re getting a dose of it. Songs like “Sounds Like the Radio” and “Cold Beer & Country Music,” you would expect those to be hits because they are up-tempo. This song goes in the face of what’s out there right now.

When did you first realize the song was a hit?

We had been playing it in live shows, so people already knew it. Around April 5, we had our album release show, and over the last four months, it has really taken off. Our fans know every word of every song on the album — they are not just waiting to hear one song. It gives me chills every night when we play that first riff [of “I Never Lie”]. They don’t need to hear no words, they know it from that first note.

“I Never Lie” debuted on Country Airplay in late October, giving you two current hits on the Billboard chart, including the top 20 hit “Sounds Like The Radio.” How does that feel?

I’m excited, because you don’t see that a lot with an artist as new as me. I’m proud to have the success so far and not be just a one-hit wonder.

You’ve also gained traction on TikTok with “I Never Lie.” What is your approach to social media?

I don’t get on social media much. There is a girl named Cheyenne in my band who has TikTok and she’ll tell me about videos that have “I Never Lie” or other songs in them. I was never very into social media — it was just a tool to get music out there. Early this year, I turned it all over [to my team]. I don’t have the apps on my phone, and I don’t think I have the logins. It can suck you in, scrolling through, and I think it’s probably healthy for me to stay off it.

You are nominated for new artist of the year at the CMA Awards on Nov. 20. What do you remember about finding out about your nomination?

It’s funny because I got a couple of texts that said, “Congratulations,” and I was like, “It’s not my birthday. What’s going on?” They sent me screenshots and filled me in. There are a bunch of big artists on that list, and I’m proud to be in this group.

Who do you think will win entertainer of the year at the CMA Awards?

I think Lainey [Wilson] would be a good pick. She puts on a hell of a show and is a great entertainer. And [Chris] Stapleton, I saw his show at [Nashville’s] Nissan Stadium, and I had not seen his show before and it’s pretty old-school with the band up there. He sings and captivates people with his voice and music, so he gets my vote, too.

A version of this story appears in the Oct. 26, 2024, issue of Billboard.

Kelsea Ballerini achieves her first No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart as Patterns blasts in atop the Nov. 9-dated list.
Released Oct. 25, the set earned 54,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. – a new weekly best for Ballerini – with 35,000 in album sales through Oct. 31, according to Luminate.

On the all-genre Billboard 200, the album arrives at No. 4, marking Ballerini’s second top 10 and highest rank, surpassing the No. 7 peak for Unapologetically in November 2017.

First-week sales for Patterns were encouraged by the set’s availability across eight vinyl variants (including one signed edition). Her vinyl sales totaled 12,000 for the week – Ballerini’s best week ever on vinyl. Plus, two CDs were available (including one signed edition). On Oct. 28, a digital version was released on her website with two bonus cuts. Additionally, the album was sale-priced for $4.99 in the iTunes Store.

Trending on Billboard

Ballerini, from Knoxville, Tenn., co-wrote all 15 songs on Patterns. The LP’s first single, “Cowboys Cry Too,” with Noah Kahan, jumps 47-24 on the streaming-, airplay- and sales-based Hot Country Songs chart. The song, which debuted at its No. 16 high in July, drew 4.9 million official U.S. streams, up 69%, in the tracking week. On Country Airplay, it ranks at No. 43 (2.5 million in audience, up 3%); it began at its No. 27 best in July.

Patterns marks Ballerini’s eighth Top Country Albums entry. It follows Rolling Up the Welcome Mat, which opened at No. 21 in February 2023 before reaching No. 11 the next month. Her charted titles before that are Subject to Change, which started at its No. 3 high in October 2022; Ballerini (No. 9, September 2020); Kelsea (No. 2, April 2020); Unapologetically (No. 3, November 2017); The First Time (No. 4, June 2015); and Kelsea Ballerini (No. 40, March 2015).

After what has felt like the longest election season in American history, Cardi B is sweating the results already. The “Bongos” rapper took to X just after midnight on election day (Nov. 5) to share her anxiety about the too-close-to-call battle between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and twice impeached former President Donald Trump.
“I don’t know why I’m nervous for tomorrow,” tweeted Cardi, who appeared at a Harris rally last Friday in Milwaukee where she gave a passionate endorsement of the candidate vying to be the nation’s first female President while slamming convicted felon Trump’s stance on women’s rights. Cardi said in her post that she was so twisted up in knots about Tuesday’s vote that, “I feel like I’m running for president.”

Meanwhile, Rihanna — who was born in Barbados and is not a U.S. citizen eligible to vote — posted her own pointed message to fans about what’s at stake on Tuesday. “When protecting p—ies and firing p—ies can happen all in one vote #votecauseicant #TanSuitSeason,” the singer wrote alongside a pensive video of her staring out a window while wearing sunglasses. The comment appeared to be a reference to Harris’ vow to protect women’s rights to make choices about their own bodies in the wake of the repeal of Roe v Wade under Trump’s watch thanks to his appointment of three conservative Supreme Court judges.

Rihanna also had jokes, captioning her clip, “POV: me trying to sneak into the polls with my son’s passport #votecauseicant” Rihanna and partner Harlem native A$AP Rocky have two young sons together.

The stars are among the many A-listers who have lined up behind Harris in her bid to deny convicted felon Trump a second term in the former reality star’s third White House run. At the Milwaukee event, Cardi made it clear why she’s on team Harris. “I take seriously the call to show up, to speak out, and to share a message that’s been on my heart for a while now,” she said. “Like Kamala Harris, I’ve been the underdog, underestimated, and had my success belittled. Women have to work ten times harder and still face questions about how we achieved success. I can’t stand a bully, but just like Kamala, I always stand up to one.”

Harris made her closing argument in Pennsylvania on on Monday night at an event that also featured Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin and the Roots on a night when music stars stumped for her in swing states across the country. At the same time, Trump made his final pitch in Michigan as well during a two-hour speech in which he called former Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a “b–ch,” once again obsessed about his crowd sizes — while lying about the attendance at Harris’ rallies — as his running mate, JD Vance, referred to Harris as “trash” at an event in Atlanta.

I don’t know why I’m so nervous for tomorrow… I feel like I’m running for president 😫— Cardi B (@iamcardib) November 5, 2024

Lady Gaga gave her closing argument for electing Kamala Harris President on Monday night (Nov. 4) at an epic rally for the Vice President who is vying to become the nation’s first female commander-in-chief. The singer took the stage in Philadelphia on the eve of Tuesday’s (Nov. 5) election day with a crucial message about the nation’s future and a poignant song choice to drive that point home.
“For more than half of this country’s life, women didn’t have a voice,” Gaga, seat at a piano, said after performing Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America” in her introductory performance before Harris took the stage just before midnight at the star-studded last rally of her historic campaign. “Yet we raised children. We held our families together. We supported men as they made the decisions. But tomorrow, women will be a part of making this decision,” Gaga continued at the event where she later performed her hit “Edge of Glory” for the 30,000 supporters gathered in the cold at the base of the famous Rocky steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

“Today I am holding in my heart all the tough, tenacious women who made me who I am. I cast my vote for someone who will be a president for all Americans,” Gaga said while speaking to voters in the all-important swing state that could hold the key to victory for Harris — or for rival Donald Trump. “And now, Pennsylvania, it’s your turn. The country is depending on you. So tomorrow make sure all your voices are heard. Come on, let’s go!” she added before introducing Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff.

The “Vote For Freedom” event hosted by DJ Cassidy — who famously also was behind the decks for the musical DNC roll call this summer — also included the Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am performing his new song for Harris, “YES SHE CAN,” as the Democratic candidate asked the gathered crowd, “Are we ready to vote? Are we ready to win?” The roster of guests stumping for Harris also included DJ Jazzy Jeff, Fat Joe and Oprah Winfrey, as well as Ricky Martin, Jazmine Sullivan, Andra Day, DJ D-Nice, the Roots, while twice impeached former President Trump made his final pitch in Pittsburgh.

Sullivan made it personal during a cover of Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On,” telling the crowd, “they’re trying to take away our reproductive freedom. What’ goin’ right now?” In the wake of announcing his support for Harris after a recent Trump rally in New York where a warm-up comedian referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” P.R. native Martin fronted a big band for a run through his signature song “Livin’ La Vida Loca.” He also had a poignant message for voters: “Kamala Harris is for us,” he said. “She’s for unity, she’s for all Americans.”

Martin was introduced by Fat Joe, who said he came to represent Puerto Ricans as well. “Kamala Harris is for us. She’s for unity, she’s for all Americans – Black, white, big, small, Latino, you name it,” he said. “She’s for us. One thing I won’t do is sell my soul for anybody. If I’m out here telling you she’s the one, it’s because I know she’s the one.”

With parallel satellite gatherings in the swing states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona and N. Carolina, the hourslong livestream also had Harris jumping over to Pittsburgh, where Katy Perry played a set of hits, while James Taylor entertained the crowd in Raleigh, N.C. with, naturally, “Carolina On My Mind” as well as “Something in the Way She Moves”; Fantasia, Sugarland and Remi Wolf were also on hand in Raleigh. Jon Bon Jovi beamed in from Michigan to perform the Bon Jovi classic “Living on a Prayer” with The War and Treaty, as well as teaming up for their new song, “The People’s House.”

In addition, 2 Chainz, Keyshia Cole, Anthony Hamilton and Ciara took the stage in Atlanta.

Christina Aguilera was the headliner at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas — along with regional Mexican band Los Tigres Del Norte and dance duo Sofi Tukker — telling the crowd, “Tonight, I’m here in honor of the people who have fought to give us the privilege to be heard. Let’s raise our voices and vote for freedom,” before performing her 2002 single “Fighter,” according to USA Today. Xtina also gave the crowd her power ballad “Beautiful” and her Pitbull collab, “Feel This Moment.”

Before exiting to her campaign’s theme song, Beyoncé’s “Freedom,” Harris told the enthusiastic crowd, “We started this fight 107 days ago. And it has not been a fight against something, but a fight for something. It’s about our love for our country, and our faith in a future that we will build together with energy and joy … Generations of Americans have led the fight for freedom. And now the baton is in our hands.”

BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ is exploring deeply personal emotions on her upcoming debut album, Rosie.
In a candid interview with PAPER Magazine, ROSÉ (born Roseanne Park) shared how reading hate comments inspired one of the album’s rawest tracks, a song that she describes as “disgustingly vulnerable.”

The New Zealand-born, Australia-raised singer admitted she has a habit of doom-scrolling at night, which led to rabbit holes of “bad comments that will get into my head.”

“I realised how vulnerable and addicted I was to this [online] world and that craving for feeling like I wanted to be loved and understood,” she explained, adding that the experience pushed her to explore her own insecurities.

Trending on Billboard

“It’s so disgustingly vulnerable and honest that people learn that I am a person that goes through these emotions, and I hated that about myself,” she said of a new track.

She admitted that, despite her efforts to seem unfazed, the criticism does affect her. “If anything, it’s something I want to cover up. Even in interviews, I’m like nothing really fazes me, you know? But it does. Every word, every comment, it crushes me,” she confessed.

While Rosie delves into the emotional toll of fame, it also draws on her own life, exploring relationships and difficult connections she has navigated.

“I think I’m grateful enough to have gone through a few relationships, you know, like a normal girl in her 20s,” ROSÉ shared. “I’m probably very relatable if you listen to my songs, and if anyone’s been in that kind of a relationship. It doesn’t even have to be about a boyfriend, just any type of toxic relationship.”

“At the end of the day, I want people to understand me and stop misunderstanding me as a person as well,” ROSÉ said elsewhere in the interview, adding that she’s “ready to be a bit more vulnerable and open and honest.”

Leading with the album’s debut single, “APT.,” a collaboration with Bruno Mars, ROSÉ is already setting records. The track has held the No. 1 position on both the Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. Charts for two consecutive weeks, marking the first time a song has surpassed 200 million streams globally in multiple weeks since the surveys began in 2020.

Her chart success extends beyond the U.S. In Australia, “APT.” debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA Singles Chart, making ROSÉ the first solo female K-pop artist to reach the top spot.

The single has held onto the top position for a second week, setting another milestone as the longest-charting No. 1 by a Korean solo artist since PSY’s “Gangnam Style” in 2012.

In the U.K., “APT.” has also gained major traction, currently sitting at No. 2 on the Official Singles Chart.

Rosie is scheduled to be released on Dec. 6 through The Black Label and Atlantic Records. 

Kylie Minogue may be riding high in the current pop scene with the latest dance-ready hits from her latest album Tension II, but the pop icon recently admitted she misses the simpler days of the 1990s.

In a candid interview with The Times, the 56-year-old “Lights Camera Action” singer shared her fondness for an era before social media, when dance music and nights out were the mainstay of her life.

“I miss almost everything about the 1990s,” Minogue said, adding: “There were no phones, dance music was going nuts and I was in it and among it, going to the clubs, going to fashion shows, pounding the pavement, going to markets.”

Trending on Billboard

For Minogue, the absence of social media represented a form of “freedom” that allowed her to immerse herself in the moment without today’s digital distractions. “I wasn’t wasting time scrolling on socials or dealing with, like, adulting. So there’s a lot I miss. Overall just freedom.”

She also offered some sage advice to her younger self, saying, “I’d say, ‘Have fun. There’s a lot to come, there will be a lot of obstacles and if you can’t go over them you’ll find a way under them or around them. You’ll find a way.”

Minogue might be well into her fourth decade in the music industry, but with her latest album release, Tension II, she’s proving that her pop reign is far from over.

The album, released through Mushroom Music, soared to No. 1 on Australia’s Albums Chart and also claimed the top spot on the U.K. Official Albums Chart, marking her tenth U.K. No. 1 and her ninth leader on the ARIA chart.

She’s also soon set to kick off her 2025 global tour, which includes a landmark show at Madison Square Garden in New York City—a first for Minogue. Speaking to Billboard about the Tension tour, Minogue revealed fans can expect songs from both Tension albums and “a taste of each decade.”

That includes her Hi-NRG cover of “The Loco-Motion,” the international smash that launched her career and hit No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1988.

“It was the song that started my career,” Kylie told Billboard in October. “Over time there was a period where I was like, ‘I don’t know how to do it. It’s so uncool. How do I do it?’ But now everything has come full circle. I can really with all my heart and enthusiasm do this song.”

Tim Lambesis, the sole remaining member of metalcore band As I Lay Dying, has issued a detailed statement following the departure of his bandmates, citing an “unhealthy environment” as a primary reason for the shake-up.

This response follows the recent exit of guitarist Phil Sgrosso, bassist Ryan Neff, guitarist Ken Susi, and drummer Nick Pierce, leaving Lambesis as the last-standing member of the San Diego-based group formed in 2000.

The exodus began last month, with Neff, Susi, and Pierce announcing their decision to quit the band over “personal morals” on Oct. 25. Shortly afterwards, longtime guitarist Phil Sgrosso, who had been with the group since 2003, followed suit, pointing to creative and personal differences with Lambesis.

Trending on Billboard

In a statement posted to social media on Nov. 4, Lambesis reflected on the internal issues that culminated in the band’s dissolution.

“As I reflect, I certainly agree that there was an unhealthy environment that made leaving for a new tour with the previous lineup unrealistic,” he stated. He admitted that it became “difficult to figure out even the smallest details” as tensions mounted within the group.

He noted, “I can stick strong to my vision for the future of AILD even when others think it should go another direction.”

Lambesis also addressed his fractured relationship with Sgrosso, sharing that the two “no longer saw eye to eye personally, creatively, or financially.” According to Lambesis, discussions with Sgrosso led to the guitarist’s departure, which then prompted the other members to follow.

He clarified that the band’s statements were released “in response to rumors” amid what he described as a “chaotic time.”

In his departure statement, Sgrosso had expressed concerns over the band’s atmosphere, stating that the band “no longer offers a healthy or safe environment for anyone involved—whether creatively, personally, or professionally,” and after “witnessing some concerning patterns of behavior,” Grosso “realized that I can no longer, in good conscience, enable further actions that could negatively affect anyone working within this space.”

He added, “I feel it’s in my best interest to completely distance myself, both creatively and personally, from As I Lay Dying.”

For Lambesis, the breakup doesn’t mark the end of As I Lay Dying.

He expressed gratitude for his former bandmates, saying he “fully supports” their decisions and that “my door will always remain open to discussing anything directly.” Now, he looks forward to building a new lineup and fostering “an atmosphere that is supportive, positive, and fosters a creative environment.”

Despite the turmoil, As I Lay Dying’s eighth studio album, Through Storms Ahead, will still release as planned on Nov. 15. The album will feature contributions from the now-former members and guest appearances by artists including Slaughter to Prevail’s Alex Terrible and former Lorna Shore vocalist Tom Barber.

For longtime fans, the band’s recent internal discord may come as little surprise. Lambesis has been at the center of controversy before, most notably in 2014 when he served time in prison after pleading guilty to attempting to hire a hitman to murder his then-wife.

Since his release, Lambesis has sought to rebuild his career with As I Lay Dying, reuniting with former members and releasing new music in 2018.

The upcoming album Through Storms Ahead serves as both a farewell to the old lineup and an introduction to the next phase for As I Lay Dying.

Read Tim Lambesis’ statement posted to Instagram in full below.

Hi everyone,

I needed some time to process all that has happened recently with AILD. As I reflect, I certainly agree that there was an unhealthy environment that made leaving for a new tour with the previous lineup unrealistic. It had become difficult to figure out even the smallest details, and I admit I can stick strong to my vision for the future of AILD even when others think it should go another direction.

It saddens me to think about the behaviors, communication, and patterns of interaction that led up to the tour cancellation. Phil and I no longer saw eye to personally, creatively, or financially. Discussions during this time prompted his decision to depart first, with each of the touring members deciding to leave shortly after, as they were not interested in going on without him. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the order in which everything was made public, as some statements were rushed out during a chaotic time in response to rumors.

I fully support each of the guys’ decisions to leave and believe at this time it is best for everyone. With that being said, my door will always remain open to discussing anything directly as I believe closing communication lead to many assumptions and problems of its own.

Now, regarding what’s next: AILD was founded on persistence and determination. For anyone who is familiar with the foundational years from 2000-2004, you know that more than 20 people (whom I’m incredibly grateful for) have come and gone to help bring to life this vision I’ve had in my head since I was 19 years old. I look forward to building a new team, and creating an atmosphere that is supportive, positive, and fosters a creative environment.

“Through Storms Ahead” will still be released November 15. I am proud of what we created and look forward to sharing it with all of you.

Rosé makes it two records in as many weeks in Australia, where “APT.” retains top spot on the national singles chart.
Earlier, the New Zealand-born, Australia-raised BLACKPINK star ended Sabrina Carpenter’s reign on the ARIA Singles Chart, as “APT.” (via Atlantic/Warner), her collaboration with Bruno Mars, debuted at No. 1.

With that feat, Rosé (born Roseanne Park) became the first solo female K-pop star to top the tally, and just the second solo artist from South Korea to climb the chart ladder after PSY’s “Gangnam Style” spent six weeks on top back in 2012.

“APT.” enters a second week at the summit of the ARIA Chart, marking the first time that a Korean solo artist or group has spent more than a week in the top spot since “Gangnam Style.” She’s the first solo female Korean artist to do so.

Trending on Billboard

Born in Auckland, and raised in Melbourne, Rosé relocated to South Korea aged 15, when the world of K-pop came calling. At her father’s suggestion, she auditioned for South Korean music company YG Entertainment. It was a shrewd move. The rest is music history.

Comprising Rosé, Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa, BLACKPINK is a record-smashing machine – here and everywhere. In 2022, BLACKPINK set the mark for the highest-debuting single by a K-pop group in ARIA Chart History when “Pink Venom” hit No. 1, beating the No. 2 start for BTS’ 2020 hit “Dynamite.”

BLACKPINK’s two studio albums, The Album (from 2020) and Born Pink (2022), both debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the Australian albums survey. In support of Born Pink, the pop group last year embarked on an east coast arena tour of Australia.

A reference to the Korean drinking game aparteu, or apartment in English, “APT.” is the first single from Rosé’s debut album Rosie, which is scheduled to drop on Dec. 6.

The cut bowed at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, and opened at No. 4 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart, establishing a new record in the process.
