It feels like it was just yesterday when the Roc-A-Fella crew and The Lox were at each other’s throats with some pretty dope diss records, but luckily for everyone it was all kept on wax and everyone was able to move on from the beef. Now we have a few representatives from each respective camp collaborating on a new cut a few decades later.

In the black-and-white visuals to “Ringin,” Freeway, Jake One roll through the streets of New York in an old school Caddy before picking up Kiss and kicking that OG ish that Hip-Hop purists love to bop to.

From the East to the South, DaBaby borrow’s Kendrick Lamar’s hit instrumental for a second and in his clip for “Not Like Us,” DB does a different kind of drive-by and rolls around hitting random people off with cash before peeling off and going about his business.
Check out the rest of today’s drops including work from Millyz, YG, and more.

Last week, New Kids on the Block made their long-awaited return with Still Kids, their first full-length album in 11 years — and a project on which the long-running pop quintet sounds reinvigorated. During a sit-down with Billboard News, Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg and Danny Wood discussed how NKOTB’s first album in over a decade came together slowly but surely.
“Donnie kind of kicked it off,” McIntyre, who co-wrote roughly half of the songs on Still Kids, told Billboard, “and we’ve had success with singles, one-offs. The last song we had was [2022 single] ‘Bring Back the Time,’ great reaction there. And that sort of kicked off, ‘Maybe let’s do some more music.’ Donnie started writing, and Jordan started recording vocals. … It did take a lot! There was a lot of passion, and I heard a lot of passion. But there was a lot of give-and-take, and space to feel what this was gonna become when we all got involved.”

Instead of flying to one location and working on the album together, New Kids tinkered with Still Kids remotely — and instead of allowing that recording process to result in a disjointed project, the guys said that they pushed themselves to deliver their best material to the rest of the group.

“There’s a sense of not wanting to let each other down,” Wahlberg explained. “There’s an urgency that I think you can sometimes hear in the voices, of wanting to deliver the best of a performance. I think that’s present in this record, even in the writing.”

Next month, New Kids on the Block will kick off the Magic Summer 2024 tour, also featuring Paula Abdul and DJ Jazzy Jeff. The latter was featured on the Still Kids highlight “Get Down.”

Ahead of the tour kick-off on June 14, watch the group discuss their relationship with boy bands who have come before and after them, playing their enduring smashes on the road, the changing landscape of the music industry and, of course, their beloved Boston Celtics.

After an 11-year hiatus, New Kids on the Block banded together once more to create and release their new album ‘Still Kids.’ They share how their new song “Better Days” was created, their thoughts on *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys, what fans can expect on their upcoming nostalgic Magic Summer tour and more!

Joey McIntyre:

It involved wooing room service, a bottle of wine. Yeah.

Donnie Wahlberg:

And then he played hard to get for two days, wouldn’t talk to John, so John would go “what happened? He’s not texting me.” 

New Kids on the Block:

Hey, we’re the New Kids on the Block. This is Billboard News.

Jason Lipshutz:

You guys have a new album out for the first time in 11 years. What is the feeling like? What does today feel like for you guys?

Joey McIntyre:

Well, it is exciting to finally be able to share the album. I mean, it’s been finished and ready to go for a little bit. It’s exciting and just hearing the fans, you know, diving in right away. We’re excited, we’re proud of the album, and excited to play it, and have listening parties. Right, Jordan?

Jordan Knight:

It’s always fun to put new music out and share it with the fans. It’s something you’ve been working on for a year, or whatever how long it took us.

Jason Lipshutz:

Have you guys been scrolling social media feeds? Are you the type of guys that scroll, like to see the reactions, like favorite songs? Getting the music out? Like, are you guys plugged in on that? Or do you just kind of let it go?

Joey McIntyre:

I was just on there, yeah. And the fans are already calling out different songs.

Drake may be done participating in rap beef for the foreseeable future but that isn’t keeping the King of The North from having a little fun with the remnantes of his latest war.

In the midst of Drake’s battle with half of the Hip-Hop game (we’re exaggerating of course), Metro Boomin dropped a free “BBL Drizzy” instrumental for the heck of it and offered up a bag to whoever was able to flip it the best. Well, it seems like challenge was accepted and after multiple artists gave it a try (most of them dissing Drake of course), Drake and Sexyy Red have decided to give it a try and just dropped a collabo cut, “U My Everything” over the Metro Boomin instrumental.

With everything that’s gone down over the past few weeks you can tell Drake took it all in stride and is embracing the hate as he’s dropping bars like “Why you love me still a mystery/Me and this surgeon got history/I changed a lot of girls lives for real, they need a new body they hittin’ me/Hey! BBL Drizzy, they want a new body they ask me for it.”
Lowkey clever on his part.
Check out “U My Everything” below and let us know who you think flipped the “BBL Drizzy” beat the best in the comments section.

Now that Snoop Dogg running Death Row, his Dogg Pound click is back in full effect and with the way they’ve been dropping off new work as of late you’d think it was the mid 90’s all over again.

Once again linking up for the Stressmatic assisted visuals to “Favorite Color Blue,” Daz Dillinger, Kurupt and Snoop Dogg drape themselves in their favorite color (which is blue if you didn’t know) and hit up a hotel with some thick young women and turn up in a room which sports blue curtains, couches and walls. Whoever owns that hotel must be a Crip or something.

Gunna meanwhile continues to do his thing regardless of how people might feel about him and in the visuals to “Jump,” he heads down to Africa to link up with Tyla and Skillibeng to take in some culture and turn up with the locals who seem to enjoy the company of the three aforementioned artists.
Check out the rest of today’s drops including work from Icewear Vezzo, Payroll Giovanni, and more.

With RM’s solo project Right Place, Wrong Person coming out May 23, we take a look at his impressive chart success as a solo artist and with BTS. His hits such as “Wild Flower” and “Butter,” to name a few, have landed him on various Billboard charts.

Narrator:RM is gearing up for the release of his upcoming solo project, Right Place, Wrong Person, and to celebrate, we’re highlighting some of his biggest chart accomplishments. This is Billboard Explains RM’s Monster Chart Success.

RM made his solo chart debut in March 2015 under his Rap Monster name, thanks to his song “P.D.D” with Warren G. The song debuted at No. 9 on the World Digital Song Sales Chart. Then, his self-titled solo mixtape debuted at No. 12 on the World Albums Chart the next month.

“P.D.D”  was just the beginning for RM on the World Digital Song Sales Chart. He has 19 top 10s, and four have gone to No. 1, including “Wild Flower,” his collaboration with Youjeen. “Wild Flower” was a big success for RM: The track gave him his first solo entry on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top 40 on the Billboard Global 200.

On the Billboard 200, RM has charted two projects: the mixtape, mono, which peaked at No. 26 in 2018, and his debut album Indigo, which hit No. 3 in 2022.

And we can’t forget the massive chart success he had with BTS. The group has charted six No. 1  albums on the Billboard 200, most recently with ‘Proof’ in June 2022. And they have had six No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100, including “Dynamite,” their Coldplay collab “My Universe,” and “Butter,” which dominated for 10 weeks in 2021.

Stay tuned to see where RM’s new project takes him next on the Billboard charts.

After a four-year hiatus, Nathy Peluso is back with her new album, Grasa. She talks about how it encapsulates her growth from her 20s to her 30s, how her dad inspired the title, her various collaborations including Blood Orange, Ca7riel, Paco Amoroso and more!

Isabela Raygoza:You also play the guitar, right?

Nathy Peluso:I do, but with these nails it’s impossible. When I go to the studio, I cut them.

Isabela Raygoza:I was looking at your nails and how beautiful they look. 

Nathy Peluso:So grasa, so red.

Isabela Raygoza: They’re grasa.

Nathy Peluso:Yes, grasa!

Isabela Raygoza: I’m using the word, too.

Nathy Peluso:Hi, I’m Nathy Peluso, and this is Billboard News.

Isabela Raygoza: Thank you for coming. We saw that you were a guest on Karol G’s tour. That was incredible.

Nathy Peluso:She is very generous, she invited me to play in Buenos Aires, which means a lot to me. That was the first time we sang “Gato Malo,” which is the song we’ve had together for years. We’ve never played it together like that in person and it was super special. She has a very gigantic, beautiful, spectacular show, and I also love her very much as a friend. It was very special.

Isabela Raygoza: Grasa is the name of your album. I think it’s an incredible and catchy name, isn’t it? Tell me, why Grasa?What’s the story?

Nathy Peluso:This album took a lot of time and phases of my life, searching for what I wanted to say. In the end, it all showed in this album. And I wanted the title to come on its own. I didn’t have a title. I did all of the album without the title.
