Paramore‘s update to its latest album is finally here.
The pop-rock group — which consists of members Hayley Williams, Zac Farro and Taylor York — released Re: This Is Why on Friday (Oct. 6), a redux of an album that dropped in February of this year.
The rock band explained that the purpose of the new version — the original of which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 — was to reimagine the tracks from their sixth studio album through the lens of the favorite artists and collaborators.
“We’ve long wanted to recognize the connection we have with some of the artists who’ve influenced us as a band and/or who have cited our band as an influence,” the group explained in an Oct. 2 tweet via X. “Re: This Is Why is almost a remix album. Some of the songs have been remixed sort of classically, while others were reworked or rewritten. It’s incredible to hear all our worlds colliding.”
The Linda Lindas, Foals, Panda Bear, Wet Leg, Julien Baker, Claud, Romy, Remi Wolf, Bartees Strange, DOMi and JD BECK and Zane Lowe are all featured in the reimagines tracks on the album. In addition to the reworked songs, a demo of “Sanity” — originally recorded during the band’s After Laughter album sessions, but left off the original record — is also included on Re: This Is Why.
“We never finished it, but that little verse was the first hint my subconscious gave me that I wasn’t okay,” she said of the track in a 2018 op-ed with Paper Magazine.
Re: This Is Why is available to stream now on all platforms.

Blinks, the wait is finally over: Jennie has released her highly anticipated solo track, “You & Me,” on Friday (Oct. 6).
“I love you and me dancing in the moonlight/ Nobody can see, it’s just you and me tonight/ I love you and me, dancing in the moonlight/ Nobody can see, it’s just you and me tonight,” she sings on the chorus of the track.
“You & Me” drops as Jennie performs the track during the solo moments in BLACKPINK‘s Born Pink World Tour. The song also marks her second solo effort. The first came in 2018, with her official solo debut track, “Solo.” Unlike the rest of her BLACKPINK groupmates, Jennie’s solo track did not come as part of a solo EP like Rosé’s R, Lisa’s Lalisa, or Jisoo’s Flower.
In the time since Jennie first released solo material, BLACKPINK issued two LPs — The Album and Born Pink, which charted at Nos. 2 and No. 1, respectively, on the Billboard 200.
Independently of the group, Jennie scored a starring role on the Sam Levinson and The Weeknd’s The Idol as the character Dyanne. As Dyanne, Jennie served as the backup dancer, friend and eventual foil to the show’s main protagonist, pop star Jocelyn (played by Lily-Rose Depp). The show, however, was not renewed by Max for a second season, amid strong reactions on social media after its airing.
The track is available to stream on all platforms, and includes a “Coachella Version.”
Listen to “You & Me” below.

Wearing a sparkling white dress with fringes, the Colombian superstar took the stage to receive the trophy from Camilo Carrera and Paris Hilton. “This is probably one of the most special awards I’ve ever received in my entire career,” she said.
Regarding the work of the foundation, she proudly stated that it is “made up of women and we work for women.” And she added: “They are empowered super-cool women.”
“One of the reasons why it is nice and special to participate in these movements is that it gives us the possibility of receiving help from companies that seek us out around the world to support great projects of which you are also a part, because what we do in tickets, in record sales, we also direct it to the foundation,” she told her fans.
The star concluded her speech by giving the award to Valentina Bueno, whom he took with her by the hand to the stage. “Today I have this award here, but I want to give it to (Bueno).. the director of the foundation. She more than anyone makes this foundation a reality.”
The Spirit of Hope Award, inspired by the legendary Selena and created more than two decades ago, recognizes the philanthropic work of artists.
Con Cora promotes the empowerment of women in vulnerable situations such as mothers who are heads of households, women deprived of their liberty, or those with low resources, among others. The foundation fosters this empowerment through social, economic, artistic, psychological, and spiritual support.
“It often crosses my mind, especially when I’m on the plane, that I have a lot of time to think, ‘God, I know you are making me big for a reason. It is impossible for a person to receive so many blessings simply to fill themselves with success or fill their pockets with money. Please give me the wisdom to understand what this beyond is that I need to do. I feel that there is my mission, through CON CORA” the Colombian expressed to Billboard upon learning that she would receive the recognition.
The 2023 Billboard Latin Music Awards aired live from the Watsco Center in Coral Gables, FL, on Telemundo.

Peso Pluma surprised fans at the Billboard Latin Music Awards 2023 by inviting Nicki Nicole to join him on stage at Thursday night’s (Oct. 5) ceremony.
Dressed completely in white and wearing dark glasses, Peso appeared on a white platform, rendered with his initials PP, as smoke and red light filled the stage. Nicole was up next, dressed to match and with her initials on her outfit.
“Con ustedes la hermosa Nicki Nicole” (with you the beautiful Nicki Nicole), said the Mexican singer.
Together, they performed their collaboration “Por las noches” while showing off their chemistry. The couple was accompanied by a band numbering more than half-a-dozen musicians who played live as silhouettes of their faces in black and white were projected on the screens.
Later, Peso Pluma took the stage again dressed in black to perform “La Bebe”, this time with Yng Lvcas and a group of hooded dancers on a flaming stage.
The Mexican artist has had an extraordinary year on the Billboard charts, including collaborations with Eslabón Armado “Ella Baila Sola”, “La bebe” with Yng Lvcas, as well as his album Genesis. He topped the list of Billboard Latin Music Awards 2023 finalists with 21 mentions in 15 categories, and walked away as the top winner with eight awards including Artist of the Year, Debut; “Hot Latin Songs” Artist of the Year, Male; and the coveted Songwriter of the Year award.
The Billboard Latin Music Awards 2023 also featured performances by Bad Bunny, Calibre 50, Chiquis, Eddy Lover, Eladio Carrión, Farruko, Grupo Frontera, La Factoría, Los Ángeles Azules, Los Sebastianes, Manuel Turizo, Marc Anthony, Marshmello, Myke Towers, Olga Tañon, Pepe Aguilar, Sky Rompiendo, Sofía Reyes, Tini, Ximena Sariñana, Yandel, Yng Lvcas and others.
