Fashion-forward singer Tyla dropped into the Jennifer Hudson Show on Tuesday (Feb. 18) to give a sneak peek at her new British Vogue cover and tease her anticipated look at the upcoming Met Gala. She also talked about performing at last year’s Victoria’s Secret fashion show and performing with her musical mirror, Sabrina Carpenter.
“She’s literally like me, like we don’t take things too serious, so it was a lot of laughing,” Tyla said of appearing on Carpenter’s first-ever holiday special in December, during which the two women collaborated on a rendition of “This Christmas.”

“It was really fun doing that and being… because I haven’t done a duet like that with another artist,” Tyla said. “Yeah, it was cute.” Now that she’s got Carpenter ticked off her bucket list, Hudson asked if there is anyone else Tyla dreams of teaming up with. “Like a dream song, just passion, like not serious, I would want to do something with… an older artist,” she said. “Like Brian McKnight… or a Babyface, something like old R&B.”
Tyla also responded to silly internet rumors that she “stole” some wings at the VS runway special, telling Hudson that at one point someone told her she could go into the “wing room” and “pick any wing” she wanted. “So I was having the time of my life, trying on all the wings,” Tyla laughed, as the image of the white feather version she chose flashed on the screen behind her; at the time, she captioned a stunning pic from the special with the words, “Earned my wings” in the post that got a heart emoji from Carpenter.
“‘That’s mine!’” she remembered thinking when she saw them at the show where she walked alongside Angels Gigi Hadid, Tyra Banks and Adriana Lima, at the event that also featured a performance from BLACKPINK’s LISA.
And, not that she’s looking to take all the gigs, but asked if she’s interested in moving into acting, Tyla said she’d love to “do something more creative” with a fellow envelope-pushing musician, such as Frank Ocean, Childish Gambino or Tyler, the Creator. “Something more creative… but dream role? I want to be a princess,” she said with a smile. “Like an African princess. I think that would be cute.”
After making the scene at her first Met Gala last year, last week it was announced that Tyla will be part of the 2025 Met Gala Host Committee team alongside André 3000, Simone Biles, Dapper Dan, Doechii, Ayo Edebiri, Regina King, Spike Lee, Janelle Monae and Sha’Carri Richardson, among others. Though she’s not sure what her outfit will be yet, Tyla promised that it “will be hot… you know that,” without revealing any additional details.
In her new British Vogue cover, the 23-year-old South African native charted her quick rise to fame and gave a hint of what musical direction she is headed in after the worldwide breakthrough of “Water,” the debut single from her self-titled first album that topped out at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“I really feel like I have changed so much since ‘Water’ and my debut album. I have grown into a different version of myself. A little more spicy, a little more bold. I’m excited to just put that into the music,” she told the magazine. And while her global acclaim could easily lead to product extensions into a beauty or booze line like other pop stars, Tyla said she’s focused on her main gig.
“Music is my first love,” she said, while keeping her options open. “Maybe one day I’ll want to dabble in acting, beauty, creative directing, fashion… I really have a love for it all and I know I can do it all.”
Tyla will appear alongside aespa, Erykah Badu, GloRilla, Angela Aguilar, Gracie Abrams, Jennie, Megan Moroney, Meghan Trainor and Muni Long at March 29th’s 2025 Billboard Women in Music event.

Drake made a statement at his recent concert that had the whole crowd buzzing. While performing “Rich Flex,” the 6 God threw a DeMar DeRozan Raptors jersey into the stands, sending a loud message that his friendship with the NBA star was officially over. The tension between them had been building for a while, especially after DeRozan seemed to side with Kendrick Lamar in the middle of the beef between the two rappers.
DeRozan even joined Kendrick on stage during his pop-up concert, vibing to K Dot’s diss track “Not Like Us,” which was aimed directly at Drake. That move had fans questioning where DeRozan’s loyalty really lay. Things didn’t stop there. LeBron James, who’s usually been in Drake’s corner, was caught in warm-ups rapping along to Kendrick’s diss track word-for-word, and that only added more fuel to the fire.
Drake isn’t the type to let things slide, and he made it clear at his concert that he doesn’t rock with people who try to play both sides. So, when he tossed that DeRozan jersey, it wasn’t just for show—it was the end of that friendship. Drizzy doesn’t forget when people switch up, and the jersey toss was his way of letting DeRozan know it’s over. If LeBron keeps singing Kendrick’s diss, don’t be surprised if he gets the same treatment. Drake’s not about to let anyone take shots and play both sides—loyalty’s everything to the sensitive king.
Nashville-based label Big Machine Label Group, a subsidiary of HYBE America, has appointed Jodi Dawes to the role of vice president of publicity and communications, to oversee the label group’s public relations department and lead strategy across BMLG’s imprints Big Machine Records, The Valory Music Co. and Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment. Dawes reports directly […]
Last year, the returns of Buju Banton and Vybz Kartel catapulted Jamaica back to the forefront of the global music conversation. With reggae and dancehall giants coming back to the stage as several subgenres of the two styles continue to gain traction worldwide, the future is looking particularly bright for Caribbean music.
Back with Blood & Fyah, his second full-length album (due late spring/early summer 2025), Keznamdi is looking to add his flair to that momentum as an independent reggae artist. Combining traditional reggae with dancehall, Afrobeats, R&B and hip-hop, Blood & Fyah continues Keznamdi’s yearslong exploration of the limitless potential of contemporary reggae. He introduced the new set with “Time,” a heartfelt single accompanied by a cinematic video shot in Ghana, one of several African countries that significantly impacted Keznamdi’s life and the new record.
“In the process of making the problem, the music just sounded like Africa,” he tells Billboard. “It was a far-fetched idea at the time [to shoot the video in Ghana] because we didn’t know anybody there, but we just packed up our things, brought two cameras and went down there with the whole team. The reception was crazy; [on] the second day, we were summoned by the Ghanaian president. At the time, his parliament won some kind of office, and they wanted to play my song with Chronixx called ‘Victory’ on the radio. They called the station, and the DJ told him that I was actually in Ghana at the time. Shortly after that, we were at his palace.”

Before he received royal welcomes, Keznamdi lived a regular life across Africa for years. Born in Jamaica, he lived on the island until he was 13, by which point he and his Rastafari family moved to Tanzania, where they lived for three years. They then moved to Ethiopia, where Keznamdi lived for another three years, eventually graduating there as well. To support Blood & Fyah, Keznamdi is formulating a tour that will reach parts of the world that the reggae industry tends to neglect.
“Reggae is huge for the next generation in Africa,” he stresses. “There’s a lot of countries like Burundi that listen to reggae every single day and not one reggae artist has gone there. Africa is a very untouched place for reggae, which is a genre that sings to Africa. Our generation is playing an important role in bridging that gap and continuing the work our elders have already done. We spend so much time touring in America and Europe, and, truly, Africa is where the music is really made for. We’re singing about that third-world struggle. Everything is pointed towards Africa, which was something that all of the elders inna reggae and inna Jamaica and inna Rastafari always prophesize.”
While reggae is the core of Blood & Fyah, Keznamdi is also treating fans to a pair of two blockbuster dancehall collabs. Dancehall superstars Mavado and Masicka – whose “Whites” single continues to dominate the Caribbean – will both appear on Keznamdi’s new record. Through Vas Productions’ Richardo Vasconcellos and producer Don Corleonie, Keznamdi (who also co-produced the track) was able to get in contact with Masicka for “Forever Grateful,” which features production contributions from Off Grid and Major Seven.
“I always envisioned him on this record,” Keznamdi gushes. “Masicka is the voice of the streets right now. He’s inspirational and uplifting; when you listen to him you want to get up and do better in your life, so I wanted him on this track.”
Vas Productions also helped Mavado and Keznamdi join forces. “Bun Di Ganja” — which also features Marlon Asher — was initially created for a Vas project, but the irresistible banger found a home on Blood & Fyah.
“Because I’m so focused on what I’m doing, it’s hard for me to do features unless the track is inspiring,” Keznamdi explains. “As soon as I heard it, I sent him my vocals the next day. It was a little struggle getting Mavado for the video because he’s an elite artist, but we were able to shoot it in Miami with him.”

Rising música mexicana star Xavi has signed a management deal with WK Entertainment, Billboard Español can exclusively announce Tuesday (Feb. 18).
The Latin music management firm — home to superstars Carlos Vives, Maluma, Emilia, and more — and helmed by CEO/founder Walter Kolm, is expanding its superstar roster with the inclusion of Xavi, 2024’s breakout star.
“Xavi is a once-in-a-generation talent whose artistry is reshaping música mexicana,” said Kolm in a statement. “His success so far is just the beginning, and we are honored to welcome him to the WK family. With our team’s expertise and global reach, alongside Nir and his team at Interscope, we look forward to taking his career to even greater heights.”
Trending on Billboard
“I’m excited for this new stage with the new addition to my team,” added Xavi.
Known for his signature tumbados románticos and an unmatched voice, the Mexican-American singer-songwriter has captivated a new generation of listeners. His hit “La Diabla” not only topped the Hot Latin Songs chart but also tied for the second-longest reigning title of the year, dominating for 14 weeks. Additionally, “La Víctima,” Xavi’s first chart entry, reached an impressive No. 2 peak. Additionally, the star reached No. 1 on the Year-End Top Latin Artist – New chart. Xavi signed with Interscope Records in 2021.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Walter and his incredible team to Xavi’s universe,” added Nir Seroussi, EVP of Interscope. “As Xavi continues to push boundaries and reach new audiences, together we will help solidify his status as one of the most influential artists in Música Mexicana today and beyond.”
WK Entertainment is also teaming up with with Fabio Gutierrez, Xavi’s father and manager, and Latin Lifestyle Entertainment, the company that has been pivotal in developing Xavi’s career from the start. “I’m very excited about this great opportunity to work hand in hand with WK and help take Xavi to the next level in his career! I’m very grateful for everything that is happening at the moment,” Gutierrez added.
Moreover, Xavi’s booking agency, WME, will maintain its role in managing his touring, brand partnerships, and film projects in conjunction with WK and Latin Lifestyle.
Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” blasts back to No. 1, from No. 15, on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart (dated Feb. 22), sparked by his performance of the song during the Super Bowl LIX halftime show Feb. 9.
The scathing diss track – which on Feb. 2 won the Grammy Awards for record and song of the year, among its five victories – adds a third week atop the Hot 100. It debuted at No. 1 on the May 18, 2024, chart and became a pop-culture fixture, spending the next eight weeks between Nos. 2 and 6. It was further boosted by Lamar’s Juneteenth The Pop Out: Ken & Friends concert – in which he performed the song five times. It rebounded for a second week at No. 1 on the July 20 chart, following the July 4 premiere of its official video.
“Not Like Us” leads the Hot 100 again after a break of 29 chart weeks (and 30 total, encompassing a week off the chart while holiday hits decorated the ranking) – the third-longest break between time at No. 1 in the chart’s 66-year history (surpassing two hits that waited nine weeks each between stays on top: Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire,” in 2023, and Miley Cyrus’ “Wrecking Ball,” in 2013).
Among all songs, the only longer breaks between No. 1 Hot 100 runs belong to Chubby Checker’s “The Twist” and Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” The former returned to the top after a record wait of a year, three months and three weeks, between 1960 and 1962, after it re-entered the chart thanks to new popularity among adult audiences; Carey’s Yuletide anthem has led for 18 total weeks, via annual reigns since December 2019.
Meanwhile, “Not Like Us” becomes the first non-holiday song to top the Hot 100 three separate times with breaks of two or more months in between each domination.
Lamar additionally ties his longest Hot 100 command, as he first led for three weeks last April with “Like That,” with Future and Metro Boomin. He has earned five No. 1s, also ruling for a week each with “Squabble Up” in December (thus, in between his second and third turns at No. 1 with “Not Like Us”); “Humble.” in 2017; and as featured on Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” in 2015.
Additionally, two songs reach the Hot 100’s top 10 for the first time, led by Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” (18-9), after she performed the song on the Grammys and won for best new artist and has drawn continued attention for her acceptance speech calling for improvements in artists’ healthcare. Plus, SZA’s “30 for 30,” featuring Lamar, leaps 22-10 after she guested during Lamar’s halftime show performance.
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated Feb. 22, 2025) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, Feb. 19, a day later than usual due to the Presidents’ Day holiday in the United States Feb. 17.

Riley Green, “Worst Way”
Trending on Billboard
Green released “Worst Way” as part of his 2024 album Don’t Mind If I Do, but the song has surged on the strength of his risqué, passionate video for the track. That clip has garnered more than 2.3 million views on YouTube, rising to the top of YouTube’s trending music video list. The video is primarily sensuous, but also adds in some mood-lightening humor — in one scene, couple draws stares as they take their romance to a public restaurant, with one grandmotherly-type older woman looking on in clear amusement and fascination. Elsewhere, the couple recreates the humorous kitchen scene from the 1988 movie Bill Durham. Musically, the song makes it clear he can deliver a sultry country track with aplomb.
Myles Smith and Lainey Wilson, “Nice to Meet You”
Grammy winner and four-time Country Airplay hitmaker Wilson teams with “Stargazing” hitmaker Myles Smith for a country revamp of Smith’s 2024 hit. In this song, he’s nearly ready to head home from a night at the bar, when a chance meeting develops into a chance to spend the night dancing away their worries. Wilson’s signature soul-twang vocal is front and center and meshes well with Smith’s smooth, pop voice, bolstered by stomps, handclaps and laid-back but hooky, folk-pop groove. Given the plethora of pop-country fusions that have proven bona fide hits over the past few years, look for this track to make an impact.
Dierks Bentley, “She Hates Me”
Bentley is known for his trademark humor on hits such as “Drunk on a Plane,” and he puts plenty more of that comedic side on display on his this radio-ready song, the Valentine’s Day-released “She Hates Me.” This polished country track finds Bentley offering a tale of a guy who ruefully realizes that his dreams reviving a former romance have been derailed by one thing — or several things. In fact, she despises nearly everything about him, from his dog and his hair, to his truck and his music. This is classic, comedic Bentley.
Nefesh Mountain, Beacons
Married duo Eric Lindberg and Doni Zasloff highlight the through-lines between bluegrass and Americana on this two-part project, with Zasloff’s pristine, airy vocal leading this 18-song musical tapestry that runs through songs about trusting in the meaning of regrets (“Regrets in the Rearview”), the Rodney Crowell classic “Song for the Life,” and the fleet-fingered, fiddle-fueled “This Is Me.” They take inspiration from not only their personal journey, but current events, on the clear-eyed but optimistic “Better Angels,” fusing traditional bluegrass song constructions with modern lyrical inspirations–and proving both the depth and breadth of their musicianship in the process. Further evincing their musical acumen, they are joined by a top-notch group of collaborators throughout, including pedal steel guitarist Greg Leisz, dobro player Jerry Douglas, mandolinist Sam Bush, banjoist Rob McCoury, guitarist Cody Kilby, fiddle player Stuart Duncan and bassist Mark Schatz, crafting a project that feels wholly progressive and creatively complex.
Tigirlily Gold, “Forever From Here”
This balmy new love song, fueled by jangly, breezy acoustics, serves as both a love song and a love letter to this sister duo’s North Dakota roots. Lyrically, the song brims with imagery of rural living — wide open plains, John Deere tractors and glowing red sunsets — while the song’s protagonist dreams of building a family and a future in those same, slow-rolling rural settings. “Forever From Here” was written by the duo’s Krista and Kendra Slaubaugh, along with co-writers Pete Good and Shane McAnally.
Muscadine Bloodline, “Chickasaw Church of Christ”
This duo returns with this acoustic-driven song from their upcoming album, … And What Was Left Behind, out April 11. Here, the song’s protagonist knows a breakup is unavoidable as his lover is moving away, but he still wants to see if one last meetup will lead to a spark for old time’s sake. Written by Muscadine Bloodline’s Gary Stanton, this tender, yearning track embodies both heartbreak and lingering love — paying tribute to the love the couple had, as Stanton expresses his determination to make the most of the rapidly dwindling time they still have together.
