Tetris Kelly:From on stage to backstage and all the parties in between, Billboard was all over the desert this weekend for Stagecoach, and we take you there in Billboard All Access. Our weekend actually kicked off Friday morning with a brunch at Ariat House with Annie Bosko, who was about to take the main stage at the Empire Polo Field. Once we arrived on site, the grounds were a vibe, as always, with the iconic ferris wheel and fans filing in for an epic day as we headed backstage.
Hey, I’m happy to be here with you guys. I kind of set you up, well you set yourselves up with your new song, “Finish This Drink.” There’s drinks on the table. I’m just saying, you know, cheers to that. Cheers to the new music.

It’s some ROTP s–t you hit me with right there, but no real talk. Man, congratulations. This is the 15th anniversary of Kush & Orange Juice, man. Tell me some of your fondest memories making that classic.
Really just like the mode that I was in, like tapped in with the fans being on the road, buying Jordans, wearing chucks, wearing camo shorts every day, literally, like smoking kush and drinking orange juice and just, you know, putting the world onto a whole lifestyle that we were living.

Linking up with Rick Ross and Ron E for his new visuals to “Deep End,” the three artists show us just how lovely life is like when you’re a rap star as they pop bottles of bubbly, floss bricks of ice on their hands, and stunt next to Rick Ross’ private jet in a plan hanger with a few thick young women. We stay forgetting that Rozay has his own private jet.
Back in Shaolin the Wu-Tang Clan get back into that mode and for their Benny The Butcher assisted cut to “Warriors Two/Cooley High,” the artists let AI create some visual art and take us back to the prohibition era when bootlegging booze was a must and racial tensions were at an all-time high.
Check out the rest of today’s drops including work from Eladio Carrion and Big Sean, Key Glock, and more.

The weekend is here and what better way to kick off it off than to get some new visual work from arguably the hottest female rapper in the game, Megan Thee Stallion, who you can always bet will be flaunting her amazing physical degree to turn up the heat whenever eyes are set on her.
Dropping off her latest video for “Whenever,” Megan shows the different skimpy work outfits you’d catch her in if she would’ve chosen to be a receptionist, cowgirl or even a chess piece. Needless to say Human Resources would’ve had to call her into their office.
Speaking of the weekend, The Weeknd continues to build some buzz for his upcoming flick Hurry Up Tomorrow and in his latest visualizer for “I Can’t Wait To Get There,” we catch Jennie Ortega picking up where his last video left off and driving off into the road while scenes from the film play throughout the entirety of the song.

Are you excited to see T-Pain at Stagecoach? Let us know in the comments below!
Tetris Kelly:
Out here in Indio, hanging out with my boy T-Pain, this is what? Weekend three of this for you?
T-Pain:
Weekend three!
Most people say Oh, weekend one, weekend two… weekend three. This is three for T-Pain, this is wild, man, I’m so proud of you, but you’ve been streaming the whole time, like, keeping people involved. So how’s that been to, like, have people along for this journey?
It’s OK, man, you know what I’m saying? It’s, it’s, it’s more frustrating than anything. Can’t get in the pool as much as I want to. That’s why I’m so ashy right now. Just got out the pool. So, you know, everything, I’m just ash. I’m just made of all ash.
Living the life. And I mean, how is it to, like, kind of have people in your personal space? Because, like, some people, I don’t know how many hours you do in sets, but like, when you got a shower, use the bathroom, you need some private time. Like, how was it to be doing that?
I don’t really have, like, personal time, you know what I mean? Like, I’ve grown up, like I got signed when I was 18. So I don’t, I don’t even know what personal life is like, you know what I’m saying? So it’s always been public. You know, going to the bathroom is pretty easy, set the camera just right above, right above the nipple, but no man, people know. You know people understand. Like, when you’re letting them into your life, you can leave them in places.

JaQuel Knight came up with the choreography for Megan Thee Stallion’s iconic 2025 Coachella set, and we’re taking you behind the scenes of how it came to life.
What did you think of Megan Thee Stallion’s Coachella set? Let us know in the comments!
JaQuel Knight
It gets crazy. It gets really wild, and I’m happy we made it here today. It’s all feeling surreal. You know, I’m very numb in this moment because, you know, we’ve been birthing this thing. So we’ll see.
Tetris Kelly:
You said it’s been months and months and months of prep. So tell me, like, when is the first concept? What’s the first meeting like? What are you establishing there?
The first meeting is, like, what the hell are we doing? What do you say? What do you want to say? How can we say it? You know? Boom. She tells me everything. I take a beat, and then we come back, we look at photos, and we start to go from there, once we have a point of reference.
I’ve seen Megan at Coachella before, so when she’s already kind of been at the surroundings, how does she say, “I want to make this different.”
It’s her just being in a different space right now. She’s been through so much in the two years of like her last performance, so for me, it’s about just making sure she has a voice and something to say and something to bring to the table. And how does that voice feel elevated, feel like she’s grown, feel like she’s learned a lot in those two years.
You, as a choreographer, have a very specific style. How do you mix those two styles where you’re like, I gotta be me and I also gotta be Megan at the same time?
