From pickleball to custom cocktails, the merging of the unexpected took place when Smirnoff Smash Vodka Soda took over Billboard’s South by Southwest festivities. Fans of music, tech and more came together in Austin, Texas, for the annual music festival, and our visit down south saw an unexpected pickleball court appear on the ever-popular Rainey Street.

Decked out in colors to match the new line, the court was a show-stopping affair with players going head to head in a showdown to remember. After flexing their skills, attendees grabbed free swag, local bites from food trucks and tried the new line, among a variety of flavors including watermelon lime, pineapple orange, strawberry dragon fruit and red berry peach, just 100 calories each.

While a referee led the game, super producer Cardo Got Wings was on site to offer the tunes and show some love to the event.

Cardo Got Wings:
With your drinks in the air, one time for Smirnoff again! Make some noise for them making this beautiful event take place, please!

In his latest visuals to “Precision,” Big Sean hops out of a cryogenic chamber of sorts and getting himself some tailormade attire to style and profile in but not before showing off his chiseled physique which is sure to drive his female fanbase crazy.

Future, Metro Boomin & The Weeknd Are War-Ready in Militant ‘Young Metro’ Video: Watch

Future and Metro Boomin are keeping the momentum rolling with their We Don’t Trust You joint album. The Atlanta duo recruited The Weeknd to deliver the militant music video to their “Young Metro” standout collab.

Directed by Hidji World and Omar Jones, the clip arrived Monday (March 25), and the trio is ready for war while holding down their concrete bunker.

Only those trusted are allowed access into the fort and Future made sure to bring a few beautiful women with him. One of the girls gets in her gymnastics bag while another develops superhuman strength to bench press Metro’s armored Tesla Cybertrunk.

Trending on Billboard

“I got these regular h–s, I got superstar h–s takin’ pictures of me like the feds/ Check out my video, lil’ bitch, that’s silly, h-e/ Got me with a mill’ in jewelry in the bed,” Pluto raps.

The Weeknd gets the call to show up mid-way to accompany his ominous croon on “Young Metro.” Rocking all-black and a bandana to cover his nose and mouth, Abel displays the same vexed anger as his controversial Tedros character from HBO’s The Idol, which had the plug pulled after one season.

The crew adds Don Toliver and they congregate for another meeting deep into the night to plan an attack before the clip comes to a close.

We Don’t Trust You arrived on Friday (March 22) to much fanfare thanks in part to a nuclear assist from Kendrick Lamar on project standout “Like That.” Expect “Young Metro” to be among the tracks from the album invading the Billboard Hot 100 next week.

Watch the “Young Metro” video below.

Tems on Creating ‘Free Mind’ Sample, Being Inspired by Frank Ocean & More | Billboard Women In Music 2024

Tems opened up about her creative process, creating the howl sample in her track “Free Mind,” being inspired by other artists and more backstage at Billboard Women in Music 2024.

Tems:
Hi, I’m Tems, and here are five things you don’t know about my music.

No. 1 is almost all my music is freestyle. It’s all came from freestyles. It’s just me freestyling the whole way through.

No. 2 two is that I have cried while making some of the songs because they were very personal to me. I think maybe that was too personal, but yeah, it’s true.

My favorite city to perform … right now, I don’t have a favorite city to perform. I really want to perform in Paris. I think that might be life-changing.

So I have a song called “Free Mind.” And when I was making that song, there’s a sample in the beginning that it’s like it sounds like it howl. A lot of people don’t know that I sang it into my laptop. I didn’t have a mic when I made that song, so I put my laptop speaker to my mouth and I sang the song, the sample.

What inspires me most is the season I’m in in life, coupled with the music that I’ve heard, people that I love: Frank Ocean, Aṣa, Sade. Those are the people that inspire me and helped me in my process.
