Tetris Kelly:

Wake her up Trav, that was iconic. Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, has joined Tay onstage at her Eras Tour stop in London. Our favorite pop star has been slaying at her Eras Tour stop in the UK, even having Prince William and fam come out to the festivities. But no one was ready for the complete adorableness overload we’ve experienced when Killa Trav, who has been in the crowd at several shows on the tour, made it to the stage during “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” I can’t take it. Swifties have been absolutely losing it online with my favorite being one that predicted the future saying, “Travis is going to join her onstage at the end of the tour he knows all the choreo.” It’s been said before, but I’ll say it again. Wow couple goals!

Tina Turner, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Little Richard and various other Black artists paved the way in rock n’ roll before turning into a predominantly white genre in the ’80s. Keep watching to see how these artists influenced the art of rock n’ roll!

Tetris Kelly:
Most of the rock music you listen to today would not exist if not for Black innovators paving the way. During this Black Music Month, we’re taking a look back at some of the trailblazing artists that made rock n’ roll what it is.

Rock was born in the 1950s at a time when the United States was just as segregated as music genres. People look back to Elvis, whose sound was not a white sound, he was compared to African American R&B singers and covered countless African American musicians.

Little Richard has been described as the architect of rock n’ roll for his dynamic music and electrifying stage presence in the mid ’50s music scene. Ike and Tina Turner opened for The Rolling Stones in the late 1960s, which introduced their bold style of soul-infused rock.

And Sister Rosetta Tharpe has been credited as the godmother of rock n’ roll. A Black, queer woman in the ’40s, she forged her sound in an industry dominated by men, and she wielded a guitar on a level that rivaled them. But by the ’80s, rock n’ roll had now become white music, with most general knowledge of rock history not going back further than the ’70s.

Rumors are that it may be the third act and a genre Beyonce is looking to reclaim.

It’s Sabrina Carpenter versus Morgan Wallen and Post Malone for the second time. Will Sabrina finally be able to take the No. 1 spot?

Tetris Kelly:
It’s round two of Sabrina versus Post and Morgan. Who’s on top? This is the Billboard Hot 100 top 10 for the week dated June 29.

Falling to 10 is Billie Eilish, while Teddy is up to nine. Benson is back in the top 10 at eight, and “Too Sweet” stays at seven. Kendrick holds on to No. 6, as does “Million Dollar Baby” at five. “Espresso” slips a spot to four, and Shaboozey is at his No. 3 peak, while Post Malone and Morgan fall to No. 2.

And her first ever Hot 100 No. 1 is Sabrina Carpenter with “Please Please Please.”

Sending a big shout out to KDot and all the homies from the West that stood together unified ,organized in peace, love. That was beautiful. That was fun to watch.

Tetris Kelly:

Snoop called Kendrick King after we all witnessed Kendrick bring people of all sides together at the KIA Forum. But how united is everyone?

We hope everything remains safe because we can’t wait for a new video.

Griff shares how Taylor Swift asked her to join The Eras Tour, what she admires about Taylor and more!

Griff:

It was around the time that she just announced Eras actually. Kendrick was performing in London, and I last-minute decided to go with my brothers. And we were sitting in this box. And I kind of looked to my left and I’m like, ‘That’s Taylor.’ And I didn’t really want to try and wave over, like just in case everyone would be like, ‘Usher away this crazy fan.’ So I just like went up the stairs to go to the toilet, and I thought I’d just try and wave and see if I could catch her eye. And then she like ran over and gave me a hug. And we chatted and then it was the first time she mentioned maybe me joining her on tour, which was crazy. 

Lyndsey Havens:

So has it set in then given how long ago that was that it’s actually now happening?

Griff:

It’s kind of crazy. I don’t know if it will feel real until I’m there. Yeah. And also, I haven’t watched any of The Eras Tour or all the films. I’ve really wanted to save it for this moment. So yeah.

Lyndsey Havens:

That’s so awesome. 

Griff:

Amazing, right?

Lyndsey Havens:

So the first time you see the show will be right after you perform, you think?

Griff:

I kind of want my set to just like be over and done with and I’m mainly just excited to sit down and watch the show, finally.

Travis Scott has been arrested in Miami for disorderly intoxication and trespassing, but is responding in the most Travis way. We have the details. The “SICKO MODE” rapper was arrested in the early morning hours of June 20TH, though he has since been released after posting bond. Miami Dade County Jail records show that Scott was arrested for trespassing property after a warning. According to the affidavit obtained by CNN, Travis allegedly got into a dispute with the crew while on a charter boat. Police who were wearing body cameras saw the rapper yell at the crew on the yacht and were able to sense a strong smell of alcohol on his breath. After being asked to leave, he returned shortly after and allegedly yelled at the crew again despite police telling him not to approach the boat, which led to his arrest. CNN quoted the affidavit saying the defendant later admitted that he had been drinking alcohol and stated it’s Miami. Travis has shared his mugshot on socials with a pair of white headphones and brown shades. Billboard has reached out to the rappers attorney and reps as well as Miami Dade police for comment.
