Fresh on the heels of yesterday’s release of their “BZRP Music Sessions #0/66,” the pair will perform the track live for the first time at the NFL game in the Spanish capital.
Bizarrap is known for his hit “BZRP Sessions” with top Latin artists, each one tailored to the sound and lyrics of each guest. They include sessions with the likes of Spaniard Quevedo, Puerto Rico’s Rauw Alejandro and “Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol 55/66” with Shakira, with its now iconic line “Las mujeres ya no lloran,” which in turn gave name to Shakira’s current tour.
At the NFL halftime show, In addition to the session with Daddy Yankee, Bizarrap will also perform some of his biggest hits.
“Getting the opportunity to headline the halftime show for the NFL’s first game in Spain is a huge honor,” said Bizarrap in a statement. “Especially alongside Daddy Yankee, such a legend”.
“I am really looking forward to performing onstage again with the incredibly talented Bizarrap,” said Daddy Yankee. “I feel so joyful about music and the amazing track we have created together – sharing it with fans around the world has already been so rewarding. Get ready Madrid, get ready NFL, we are going to have an amazing show!”
The NLF’s Madrid game and halftime show follows a September game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles charters played in São Paulo, Brazil, with a halftime show featuring Karol G.
“Across performances at our international games, we’ve elevated Latin artists around the world – showcasing the significance and appeal of the genre globally,” said in a statement Tim Tubito, senior director, global game presentation and entertainment at the NFL. “We’re thrilled to welcome Bizarrap and Daddy Yankee to our first-ever game in Madrid and can’t wait for fans to witness history, including the inaugural performance of the ‘BZRP Music Sessions #0/66’ and a pregame lineup of inspirational talent.”
That pregame lineup includes the Madrid Marine Infantry Group Band playing Spain’s national anthem and Madrid-based vocalist Karina Pasian performing the U.S. National Anthem.
Fans in Spain can tune-in to the Commanders-Dolphins game on Mediaset España’s free-to-air channel Cuatro or on DAZN. Fans in the U.S. can watch the game on NFL Network.

Adolescence can be a trying, sometimes terrifying time for many teens. But on Penn Badgley’s Podcrushed podcast this week, Sam Smith revisited a particularly challenging time they went through as a young teenager struggling with painful physical changes.
“I had surgery on my chest when I was 13 years old, because I had a growing chest,” Smith told Badgley about the procedure they first talked about in a 2019 interview. “There were all sorts of reasons why, but mainly, I was just getting so teased, I couldn’t go swimming in school, and I couldn’t — like, getting changed in the locker room was hell. So I got liposuction when I was 13 years old.”
As a non-binary, queer child trying to find their way in the world, Smith praised their parents for being “hugely supportive of the whole thing, because they just saw how much it was crippling everything about me.” Describing the “brutal” years in a Catholic school at 12 while being “so obviously gay,” Smith said they were popular, “really chubby, round a pink” and totally comfortable with their queerness after coming out to a female friend at 10.
But their weight was always a burden. “My queerness was something that I could handle and could have a grasp on it, but my weight as a kid was the hardest thing for me in school and weirdly the thing I got teased most about,” Smith said.
The singer recalled that it was “just all a struggle with food and stuff. And the liposuction, it worked, but it was also a nightmare because they gave me a bandage,” describing a kind of bra that they were originally meant to wear for a month while healing that turned into a year of binding. “If I wore the bandage, it meant that I would get to the front of the lunch queue,” Smith laughed. “So I just kept this bandage on for nearly a year, and I’d be like, ‘Oh, don’t come close to me,’ and then I’d just get first at lunch and I’d eat more and eat more and eat more… so the surgery never really worked because I just love food.”
Smith has long been open about their history of struggle with body issues, including in a 2019 post in which the singer posed shirtless on a beach and described a reluctance early in their career to take photos without a shirt on. “In the past if I have ever done a photo shoot with so much as a t-shirt on, I have starved myself for weeks in advance and then picked and prodded at every picture and then normally taken the picture down,” Smith said at the time, adding that the near-unanimous support from fans has helped them be open about their struggle.
Smith is gearing up to kick off a 12-show To Be Free residency at the Warsaw in New York City on Nov. 26 before moving on to a 20-night residency at the refurbished Castro Theatre in San Francisco.

Metallica knows that the easiest way to a fan’s heart is through a taste of homegrown rock.
The metal giants are currently pounding their way through a long-overdue tour of Australia and New Zealand, a six-date coast-to-coast swing for the M72 World Tour.
When the “One” rockers visited Adelaide Oval on Wednesday night, Nov. 5, the setlist included many favorites from across their decorated, Rock Hall-inducted career — plus some legendary local music.

Fan-filmed footage shows Metallica pumped out a cover of INXS’ Billboard Hot 100 leader “Need You Tonight”. Then, a segue into the Angels’ classic from 1976, “Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again,” led by bass player Robert Trujillo at the mic.
It’s a song that courses through the bloodstream of every Australian weaned on guitar music, and has somehow evolved with a call-and-respond that has passed down the generations. When the song is played, tradition requires fans to roar “no way, get f—ed, f— off.”
Of course, that happened in the City of Churches.
At the height of their powers, the Angels were the prototypical Aussie pub-rock band, a group blessed with a captivating singer, the late Bernard “Doc” Neeson, and memorable, grinding songs.
The Angels were inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 1998. The following year, Neeson suffered a severe spinal injury. He died in 2014 following a years-long battle with brain cancer, aged 67. Bass player Chris Bailey died of throat cancer a year earlier, in 2013. In August of this year, the city of Adelaide’s lord mayor Jane Lomax-Smith unveiled to the public The Angels Lane, close to Hindley Street Music Hall in the CBD.
INXS needs no introduction. The new wave stars climbed the highest mountain of contemporary music with six U.K. top 10 albums (including a No. 1 with Welcome To Wherever You Are from 1992) and five U.S. top 20 albums, a BRIT Award (in 1991 for best international group) and, in 2001, elevation into the ARIA Hall of Fame. Surely Rock And Roll Hall of Fame elevation is in the cards.
It’s not the first time on this tour that Metallica has dished some homestyle cooking. During the opener Nov. 1 at Perth’s Optus Stadium, the Bay Area legends served up a rendition of John Butler’s “Zebra,” which the Western Australian native responded to with his own cover of Metallica’s “Enter Sandman.”
Produced by Live Nation Australia, the tour continues Saturday (Nov. 8) at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium, then visits Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium (Nov. 12), Sydney’s Accor Stadium (Nov. 15) and wraps up Nov. 19 at Auckland’s Eden Park. It’s Metallica’s first Australian run since 2013.
Evanescence and Suicidal Tendencies are the support on this leg of the M72 World Tour.

With the victory spoils, Ninajirachi (real name: Nina Wilson) collects A$50,000 ($32,000) in prize money, courtesy of headline sponsor Soundmerch.
“Thank you so much to the Australian music prize for awarding me this year, this truly means a lot to me!! I’m so proud to have produced an Australian album,” she comments in a statement. “I Love My Computer drew from my growing up on the central coast and the Australian dance music I heard in my childhood. To sincerely contribute to the awesome story of Australian music was one of my highest hopes. I hope I can keep making albums and telling stories forever. Thank you so much, I’m so honored to receive this award.”
The AMP could trigger a gold rush for Ninajirachi in the month of November — Ausmusic month, the annual celebration of Australian music and its creators. The 26-year-old songwriter, producer, DJ and artist will compete for a leading eight trophies at the annual ARIA Awards, where she’s nominated for album of the year, best solo artist, the Michael Gudinski breakthrough artist, best independent release, best dance/electronic release and more.
Modeled on the U.K.’s Mercury Prize, the AMP launched in 2005 as a platform to “discover, reward and promote new Australian music of excellence,” and is today recognized as the most prestigious national award for the album format.
Also shortlisted for the AMP were LPs by Tropical F*** Storm, Folk B**** Trio, Mudrat, and others released during the period Oct. 1, 2025 to Sept. 30, 2026.
Earlier in the three-stage judging system, a longlist of 465 eligible albums was boiled down to 50 nominees, focusing on creative merit over mainstream popularity. The final shortlist of nine was announced last month.
Previous winners include efforts byThe Avalanches, Sampa the Great (twice), Gurrumul, A.B. Original, Courtney Barnett and last year’s recipient, Kankawa Nagarra for Wirlmarni.
The 22nd Soundmerch AMP is open for Australian artist albums released from Oct.1, 25 to Sept. 30, 2026.

All hail Daniel Caesar.
Just hours after he was crowned on Billboard’s Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, Caesar stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for a performance of “Who Knows.”
Wearing a red beanie and a blue hooded jacket, and wielding an acoustic guitar, the late-night musical guest commanded the spotlight for this soul-filled number.

“Who Knows” is housed by Son of Spergy (via Hollace/Republic Records), which bowed atop the list dated Nov. 8, for his first leader. Son of Spergy, the title for which is a nod to the nickname of Caesar’s father, gospel singer Norwill Simmonds, is the fourth album by the Canadian singer-songwriter.
The collection also enjoys splashes across various Billboard tallies, including a No. 1 start on the Top R&B Albums chart, his first time atop that tally; plus a No. 4 entry on the all-genre Billboard 200, for his first top 10 visit on the main survey; a No. 4 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart, and No. 11 on the Top Streaming Albums ranking.
Meanwhile, 10 of the album’s tracks crack the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, led “Who Knows,” which debuts at No. 23 — his best result as a lead artist.
Caesar (real name: Ashton Simmonds) has already reaped serious rewards in his career. He won a 2019 Grammy Award for “Best Part,” featuring H.E.R.; was featured alongside Giveon on Justin Bieber’s “Peaches,” which debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100 in 2021; and his fruitful collaboration with Tyler, The Creator played a big role in sending the rapper’s 2024 album, Chromakopia, the leadership on the Billboard 200.
Son of Spergy was two years in the making, shaped during sessions in Oracabessa, Jamaica and at Paris’ Rue Boyer and New York’s Electric Lady studios.
“It’s about religion, but more importantly, it’s about my father,” he told Billboard of the new album. “In your childhood, your father is a lot like God. He’s the person you fear the most on earth and also the person whose love and respect you desire more than anyone else on earth. It’s the source from where all your blessings come.”

Rolling Loud Australia is set to take place across two cities in March: Sydney’s Centennial Park on March 7, and Melbourne’s Flemington Racecourse on March 8. The twin one-day events mark Rolling Loud’s first shows in Australia since 2019, and the first time the global hip-hop festival brand has expanded to a two-city format in the country.
According to organizers, pre-sale tickets sold out within hours of going live, and general tickets are now on sale via australia.rollingloud.com. Promoters have confirmed that the full festival lineup will be announced in the coming weeks and will include a mix of major international acts and leading Australian artists.
Since breaking through in 2023, Sexyy Red has achieved several Billboard chart milestones. Her highest Hot 100 placement came in November 2024, when she reached No. 10 as a featured artist on Tyler, The Creator’s “Sticky” alongside Lil Wayne and GloRilla. She first entered the Hot 100 with the “Pound Town” remix featuring Nicki Minaj, and followed that with her viral hit “SkeeYee,” which peaked at No. 62 and topped the inaugural TikTok Billboard Top 50. She also appeared on Drake’s “Rich Baby Daddy” (No. 11) and scored her first top 20 solo hit in 2024 with “Get It Sexyy,” which peaked at No. 20.
On the Billboard 200, her 2024 mixtape In Sexyy We Trust debuted at No. 17, following her 2023 breakout Hood Hottest Princess (No. 62). In recognition of her independent rise, she was named Billboard’s Indie Rapper of the Year in 2025.
Rolling Loud co-founders Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, both named multiple times on Billboard’s Hip-Hop Billboard Hip-Hop Power Players list, continue to expand the brand globally. Alongside its flagship Miami festival, Rolling Loud has produced shows in Europe, Asia, Canada, and the Middle East. The franchise also recently announced its debut in India for 2025.
The festival first landed in Australia in 2019, with the debut including performances from Future, Playboi Carti, Rae Sremmurd, Tyga, and a surprise appearance from a then-rising The Kid LAROI.

Another Kylie Christmas is coming.
Kylie Minogue will ring in the holiday period with the 10th anniversary edition of Kylie Christmas, featuring four newly-recorded tracks.
Due out Dec. 5, Kylie Christmas (Fully Wrapped) (via Warner Records) includes the new yuletide tunes “Hot In December,” “This Time Of Year,” “Office Party” and “XMAS,” an Amazon Music Original.
Pronounced X – M – A – S, the party number is available now to stream from Amazon Music, and is available as a stocking filler on CD, 7” gold vinyl and 12” zoetrope vinyl from the Australian pop princess’s official store.

The album proper should make for a handy present for fans, and is available to preorder in several limited-edition vinyls, from candy cane to transparent red and pink and white marble color-ways. The Amazon exclusive album vinyl is a transparent green.
“Revisiting Kylie Christmas ten years on has been so much fun,” Minogue says in a statement. “Fully Wrapped has given me the chance to write and record four new songs and add a little extra sparkle – I can’t wait for everyone to turn up the volume on the new single, ‘XMAS’!”
Kylie is three decades-and-counting into her stellar career, and there’s a sense that she’s not yet hit her peak.
Raised in Melbourne, the pop veteran’s 2023 album Tension led the national charts in the United Kingdom and Australia, peaked at No. 21 on the Billboard 200, and spawned the global hit “Padam Padam,” which scooped a Grammy Award (best pop dance recording). Followup Tension II also led the charts in the U.K., Australia and cracked the top 100 in the U.S.
Kylie’s hot streak has included Las Vegas residencies, ARIA Awards; a deal with United Talent Agency (UTA) for live representation in the U.S. and Canada and acting roles worldwide; the Global Icon Award at the 2024 BRIT Awards, becoming just the second woman to win it following Taylor Swift in 2021; and the Billboard Women in Music Icon Award.
More recently, the Aussie legend was a guest on PinkPantheress’s all-star remix project of her Fancy That mixtape, which dropped last month, and she performed alongside ATEEZ for Apple TV+’s new music competition series KPOPPED.

Taylor Swift attended Miles Teller and Keleigh Sperry’s (fake) wedding, but will the couple attend hers?
In a recent TikTok posted by Parade from the SCAD Savannah Film Festival, the actor — who starred with his real-life wife in the pop star’s 2021 wedding-themed “I Bet You Think About Me” music video — was asked whether he’d been invited yet to Swift and Travis Kelce’s forthcoming nuptials.
“I don’t know,” he said, shaking his head. “That is going to be, I imagine, one impressive wedding,” Teller continued. “But, yeah, we’re just really happy for them. I’ve known Trav for a while, too, and they’re having a blast.”
The Tellers have been part of the 14-time Grammy winner’s posse for several years now. Before they played a couple whose wedding gets crashed by a vengeful Swift in her Red (Taylor’s Version) visual, the singer congratulated them on their actual marriage in 2019 by sending flowers and a note quoting her own “Lover” lyrics.
“May you always be this close, forever & ever,” Swift wrote in the card at the time. “Sending my best wishes to two lovers on their big day. Your friend, Taylor.”
A few months after the Eras Tour headliner started dating a certain Kansas City Chiefs tight end in 2023, the Whiplash star and Sperry joined Swift in a box suite at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas to watch the 2024 Super Bowl, which Kelce’s team won against the San Francisco 49ers. Prior to that, Teller and the model stepped out in New York City with Swift to help her celebrate her 34th birthday.
Now, it’s Swift’s turn to walk down the aisle. She and Kelce got engaged in August, and going off of what the musician has previously said about her wedding plans, Teller and Sperry definitely have a good chance of being on the guest list. “I’m inviting everyone I’ve ever talked to,” she joked while on The Graham Norton Show in October. “I think it will be fun to plan.”
