La banda que no logró conquistar a Elvis Costello: "Son una simplificación de The La's"

Oasis es una banda adorada por millones de amantes de la música y también respetada por una buena parte de sus colegas. Sin embargo, Elvis Costello no se encuentra entre sus fanáticos. Así como los propios hermanos Gallagher suelen ser tajantes cuando no se conmueven con alguna manifestación musical, el compositor inglés dio su punto […]

The most influential leaders in Canada’s music industry gathered at the exclusive celebration for Billboard Canada Power Players at Toronto’s Rebel on June 10, as part of NXNE. It was a prestigious night with impactful and emotional remarks, heartfelt tributes and one historic, and strange, surprise honour to close the festivities.

Many of the Power Players honoured on the 2026 list were in attendance, including Gary SlaightWarner Music Canada co-GM Madelaine Napoleone, Universal Music Canada president & CEO Julie Adam, Live Nation Canada’s Erik Hoffman, Wayne Zronik and Melissa Bubb-Clarke, Allan Reid of the Junos/CARAS and many more.

Following a viral KEXP performance in February, Quebec-based math rock duo Angine de Poitrine have skyrocketed into international fame. The polka-dot-clad pair — who perform under the pseudonyms Khn de Poitrine and Klek de Poitrine — are everywhere. In a surprise moment, they got to accept the Billboard Canada Global Breakthrough Award, presented by FACTOR, in front of the most powerful executives in Canada. When their name was announced, many in the room were questioning if they were really there and what they would do.

True to their artistry, the two members took the stage in full black and white polka dot costumes as their music played, walked up to the microphone, and then didn’t utter a single word. While they lingered on stage it seemed like they might say something, if even in their otherworldly language. Instead, Khn reached up and touched his hat, and a burst of black and white confetti showered the audience. Then, they left. Without saying a word, they had one of the big moments of the night.

Two icons of the live music industry were honoured for their decades-long devotion to the country and its artists. Paquin Artists Agency co-president Vinny Cinquemani and Live Nation Canada chairman Riley O’Connor became the first-ever inductees into the Billboard Canada Hall of Fame.

When Meg Symsyk, president and CEO of FACTOR, stepped onstage to accept the Visionary Leadership award, she revealed that earlier in the day, she was on a flight from Los Angeles where she was with Rush at The Forum on their comeback 50th anniversary tour. Billboard Canada national editor Richard Trapunski personally presented her with the award, and outlined that it’s been a whirlwind month for Symsyk, as news that FACTOR and Scotiabank had settled their lawsuit became public at the beginning of this month. Throughout it all, Symsyk ensured that the music funder has continued — and in many ways, expanded — its support of Canadian artists.

“When you are surrounded by people who share your values and challenge each other to be better, you discover that leadership is less about pursuing your personal achievements and more about helping others find theirs,” she said. “Our work has always been about more than streams and charts and ticket sales and market share.”

Margaret McGuffin, CEO of Music Publishers Canada, received the Impact Award. She was recognized for her advocacy ensuring that Canadian creators are fairly compensated and licensed in the age of AI, as well as her mentorship for the next generation.

“As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into the creative ecosystem, we must ensure that creators and the companies that invest in them have a voice in shaping the future,” she said during her speech. “These are the people I’ve spent my career working with and advocating for. I have the great privilege of working with music publishers, many who are in this room.”

Daniel Caesar Pays Surprise Tribute to His Managers at Billboard Canada Managers to Watch 2026

The most influential managers from across the globe gathered at SOUNDSTAGE in Toronto on June 11 at NXNE to celebrate Billboard Canada Managers to Watch. The celebration spotlighted the people who put in the behind-the-scenes work to elevate artists across the country following the release of this year’s coveted Managers to Watch list.

“If you want to get something done, call the manager,” said Billboard Canada national editor Richard Trapunski in his opening remarks. “You are the ones who are closest to the artists, the unsung heroes of the music industry. You have the vision and the tools to open doors and build careers, yet you are rarely in the spotlight yourselves.”

Daniel Caesar is one of the biggest Canadian success stories of the last decade, and he flew straight from Thailand to make a surprise appearance to honour the two powerhouses who have been with him on an adventure from the very beginning: his managers, Matthew Burnett and Jordan Evans.

The R&B star proudly invited both of his managers onstage to crown them Billboard Canada’s 2026 Managers to Watch, greeting each of them with a powerful, lasting hug and leaving Evans teary-eyed.

“We’re in the middle of an adventure and I love it so much. If I could bottle up that feeling, I would pay every cent I have to give that feeling to the people I love,” Caesar said.

Burnett joked about his working relationship with Evans being “each other’s most successful relationship,” with the pair celebrating two decades of working together this year. He gave a special nod to Canadian producer Boi-1da for giving them their start in the industry back when they were producers, and boasted that nobody in the world can captivate a room like Daniel Caesar playing acoustic guitar, be it in a small room, an arena or even a stadium. He was proud to call Evans and Caesar his brothers and his family, and left the audience with words about what he considers to be the utmost principle of management: care.

Sébastien Collin is the man behind the year’s biggest global breakthrough: the polka-dotted, viral math rock band Angine de Poitrine from Saguenay, Quebec. In just four months, Collin and the group have booked an international tour that’s sold over 100,000 tickets worldwide and racked up over 16 million views on the band’s breakthrough KEXP live performance.

Collin is this year’s Manager on the Rise. “I think we can be proud of the music without compromise and I hope that it will help build bridges,” he said. “I hope it will put some spotlight on the Quebec scene. We’ve got really nice bands right now, and I hope it will help us find the good bands everywhere.”

Tommas Arnby, meanwhile, won the International Manager Award, highlighting his work building the global rise of rock star Yungblud.

Peso Pluma wasn’t going to let Mexico’s win in its first match of the 2026 World Cup 2026 go uncelebrated.

On Thursday (June 11) La Doble P joined soccer fans at the Adidas 2026 World Cup Opening Watch Party at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, where he headlined the massive show. Before taking the stage to perform, the Jalisco native sat down with Billboard to discuss Mexico’s 3-0 victory against South Africa earlier that day, his enthusiasm for the team and his most recent success on the charts.

The artist described himself as euphoric and expressed pride in wearing the jersey while watching the match: “Mexicans are the most bada–, man,” said Pluma. When asked what he wished for the team as it prepares to face South Korea in its next match on June 18, he replied, “May God bless them and may they give it their all, so that this time we’re in that [final] game. And we’re going to be supporting from [the] outside, as it should be.”

The Grammy winner also admitted that he has high hopes for his country’s team during this World Cup. “Well, [I’m] really happy because we debuted on the right foot. Mexico’s going to win. Mexico has to win. Attract it — the law of attraction — Mexico’s going to win,” he said.

The artist also weighed in on the current success of his song “Daño,” from his 2026 album, Dinastía, which peaked at No. 5 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs and is currently sitting at No. 9.

“We are very happy, because it’s a song we all really like from the album,” Pluma said. “It’s a song from Dinastía that stood out. The fans in Mexico really liked it and also here in the United States. And it’s a song that throughout the whole tour, [fans] cried and sang and yelled the lyrics to, and that fills our soul.”

Watch Peso Pluma’s interview with Billboard here:

Lil Baby’s hemp company is facing counterclaims after accusing its joint venture partner of shipping illegal and contaminated cannabis products across the country.

The rapper’s business entity, The Holding Co., sued Florida cannabis company Bay Smokes in April for allegedly mishandling his WHAM product line, which was marketed as a low-THC hemp product that was legal nationwide. The Holding Co. claimed it tested the product and found THC levels of 22% — far above the federal limit of 0.3% — as well as microbes like E. coli, yeast and mold.

Bay Smokes has denied these allegations, telling Billboard in an April statement, “We stand by the quality and legality of all of our hemp products, which undergo independent third-party laboratory testing.” Now, the cannabis company is accusing The Holding Co. of breaching a confidentiality and non-disparagement clause from their joint venture deal.

“The complaint filed by plaintiff in this action publishes false allegations of product contamination that are directly contradicted by Bay Smokes’s contemporaneous October 10, 2025, certificate of analysis for the ‘THCA Flower Gelato 45’ batch that plaintiff purports to have independently tested,” reads Bay Smokes’ Thursday (June 11) countersuit, obtained and first reported by Billboard.

The countersuit also alleges that The Holding Co.’s principal, Eric Anderson, has further disparaged Bay Smokes to customers at industry trade shows “while steering those customers to competing sources of supply in which plaintiff’s principal holds an undisclosed personal financial interest.”

Bay Smokes is seeking financial damages from The Holding Co. for its alleged contract violations, including a refund of legal fees. It also claims The Holding Co. has been overpaid by more than $206,000 in its share of the joint venture profits.

Reps for Lil Baby and The Holding Co. did not immediately return requests for comment on Friday (June 12).

The Holding Co. and Bay Smokes formed their joint venture in 2024 for a WHAM hemp line, named for Lil Baby’s nickname. This would go on to be the title of the rapper’s 2025 album WHAM, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

In the April lawsuit, The Holding Co. alleged Bay Smokes had tarnished Lil Baby’s reputation by associating his trademarks with “unauthorized illegal cannabis sales, concealed sales, contaminated products and unlawful conduct.” The suit also claimed that Bay Smokes’ founders were inappropriately marketing the cannabis brand with “erotic videos.”

With Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Tour underway, the pop/R&B singer is traveling across the United States with nearly 30 stops scheduled in big cities, like Brooklyn, Austin, Atlanta, Boston and others.

If you are planning on attending, one thing’s for sure: You’ll want merch and apparel. Thankfully, Urban Outfitters dropped a line of tees all priced at $40 apiece from different eras of Grande’s career, from Yours Truly to Eternal Sunshine. Considering most concert merch can run you more than $100 per tee, this $40-line is a stellar option.

You can’t find these pieces anywhere else, meaning once these t-shirts are sold out, they’re gone for good. We’ve shared a few of our fashionable favorites from the collection, including baby tees and shirt dresses, and how to style them.

Going to Ariana Grande’s Eternal Sunshine Tour? Dress the Part With These Urban Outfitters Pieces

Ariana Grande ‘Eternal Sunshine’ Graphic T-Shirt Dress

UO Exclusive

This shirt meets dress comes in sizes small/medium and large/XL.


The glory days of Grande wearing baggy shirt-esque dresses will never be forgotten, and this style is proof. The boxy silhouette features artwork from the artist’s Eternal Sunshine era on both the front and back in red, contrasting the cream-colored base. The neckline is slouchy, sitting off-the-shoulder.

If you’re tired of regular old graphic tees, you can shake up your collection and try out this piece that is more dress than shirt. This style stops around the mid-thigh, depending on your height. If you are heading to one of the singer’s stops on her tour, this is a comfortable option that you can wear with combat boots or bloomers. Or go full-on 2018 Grande and wear thigh-high booties to elongate your legs.

Ariana Grande ‘Yours Truly’ Graphic Baby Tee

UO Exclusive

Another baby tee is available in this exclusive line featuring art from Positions.


If you’re up for showing a little skin, this baby-tee is beyond adorable. The shirt’s graphics reference Grande’s Yours Truly era, her debut studio album, released back in 2013. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just getting into the pop star, this shirt is a very flattering option. The circular neckline gives way to short sleeves and a short and trim hemline. Graphic tees are often baggy and boxy.

This baby style is a offers a reprieve from the oversaturated market of similar silhouettes, offering prospective buyers something form-fitted and sleek. To style, we’d opt for something high-waisted like jeans or shorts for extra coverage. For a 2000s moment, wear low-rise denim.

Ariana Grande ‘My Everything’ Graphic Tee

UO Exclusive

The back of this shirt features black and white artwork from My Everything.


My Everything was released in 2014, and quickly became a hit with tracks like “Problem,” which took the number two spot on Billboard Hot 100 charts or “Bang Bang,” taking the third spot and “Break Free,” which took the number four spot.

This tee is a reminder of that glorious era, pulling art straight from Grande’s second studio album. This throwback design is 100% cotton, which not only makes it breathable but also super soft as well. It is another oversized casual piece that you can comfortably wear to a concert, even when it gets hot from dancing and singing your heart out. And because it’s so breezy, it could double as a lounge or sleep shirt.

Backstreet’s bark, alright! The Backstreet Boys just dropped an epic track for Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie, bottling up their boy band pop magic to soundtrack everyone’s favorite squad of canines as they take on their next mission.

Arriving Friday (June 12), the track is titled “Bottle Up” and was written by Ed Sheeran and Savan Kotecha. The Backstreet Boys also paired the release with a music video that shows the quintet singing and dancing along to the upbeat anthem while sharing the screen with characters Rex, Marshall, Skye, Chase, Rubble and Rocky, all suited up in their rescue gear as they roam an island crawling with dinosaurs.

“Take this moment/ And bottle up this feeling,” members Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson croon. “‘Cause when I watch you dancing, I’m undеr your command/ Just one touch, you got me right in the palm of your hand.”

“Bottle Up” comes about two months ahead of Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie‘s premiere in theaters on Aug. 14. The film’s diverse voice cast includes Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, Jennifer Hudson, McKenna Grace and more.

The Backstreet Boys are currently gearing up to resume their Into the Millennium residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas, having previously become the first pop act to headline the venue in July 2025. The 2026 dates are July 16, 17, 18, 23, 24 and 25.

Ariana Grande is spreading more sunshine with the launch of a new foundation supporting gay and trans rights, mental health services and more.

The pop star/actress broke the news on Friday (June 12) with a post on social media, writing in a statement, “I am beyond excited to finally announce the brighter days ahead foundation.”

“Our mission is to support, protect, and provide resources for our vulnerable friends in need,” she continued. “Through four different funds, we will be supporting handfuls of incredible organizations that provide the safe space and care that is desperately needed by so many right now.”

The first of the four causes that will benefit from the Brighter Days Foundation is represented by its Protect & Defend Fund, which “empowers grassroots groups that advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, civil rights, and reproductive justice, helping to create communities where people feel safe, supported, and have care and resources to turn to,” according to a release. The second, titled the Heal & Dream Fund, “expands access to mental health care and community support, helping people feel seen, understood, and able to heal.”

The Seen & Celebrated Fund will be dedicated to shine a spotlight on the LGBTQ+ community’s “voices and stories,” with grantees listed as the Gender Liberation Movement, Glisten Rainbow Library, SAGE USA, TransLash and Transanta. Finally, the Emergency Support Fund will operate situationally in response to urgent situations as they arise, its recent grantees spanning Humanity Crew, New York Cares, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital, Save the Children UK, This Is About Humanity and Troop 6000.

A full list of the organizations supported by the Brighter Days Ahead Foundation is available on its website.

“It has been my privilege to be able to support these causes on my own over the years,” Grande added in her statement. “I’m grateful to now be able to expand that reach and amplify the life-saving work that these organizations do through the brighter days ahead foundation.”

The Oscar-nominated Wicked actress has long been one of the most outspoken stars in the music industry in terms of her beliefs, particularly when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights, which she’s been vocal about since day one. She’s also made a point of encouraging her fans to vote and speaking out against President Trump’s administration, most recently slamming the DHS for using her song “Bye” in a TikTok promoting ICE.

“Please do not ever use my music in relation to this barbaric, inhumane, heinous nonsense,” Grande commented online.

The Grammy winner’s new charitable endeavor comes just a few days after she kicked off her Eternal Sunshine Tour in support of 2024’s Eternal Sunshine, which spent three weeks total at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. She’s also gearing up to drop her new album, Petal, in July after unleashing Billboard Hot 100-topping lead single “Hate That I Made You Love Me” in late May.

Olivia Rodrigo is back with her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. This new offering features 13 tracks chock-full of “sad love songs,” in her words, including “Stupid Song” and “U + Me = <3.” The internet is abuzz with excitement, likely because it’s been nearly three years since the pop singer/songwriter released an album, her last being Guts from 2023.

In an Instagram message posted Friday (June 12), Rodrigo wrote, “I love this album so much. The record is a time capsule of a relationship in all of its highs and lows. It’s my attempt at capturing love from both sides of the coin. The hope and the disappointment. The insanity and the clarity. The entanglement and the unraveling.”

Inspired by and in celebration of her new music, Hot Topic dropped a line of merch that is pretty hard to pass up. Every piece is inspired by the themes and aesthetics of the album, down to the graphics featured on comfy hoodies and even decorative enamel pins.

Pricing ranges from $8.91 to $66.90. We’ve chosen a few of our favorites from the capsule that are very cute and, most importantly, something that we can see our readers actually wearing. Whether you’re a diehard Rodrigo Stan or just looking for some new stylish clothes for the summer, there’s something for everyone.

Additionally, from Friday (June 12) to Sunday (June 14), Hot Topic is running a buy two, get one free sale, which includes all of Rodrigo’s new merch.

Olivia Rodrigo’s Merch and Apparel Line Celebrates New Album With Girly Accessories and Cozy Basics

Olivia Rodrigo ‘Sad For A Girl So In Love’ Hoodie

On chillier evenings, we’d style this piece with your favorite sweats and slippers snuggled up under the covers.


Cozy hoodies never go out of style, especially when they’re adorned with Rodrigo’s face. This oversized style features heart-shaped graphics and artwork from the “Vampire” singer’s album lend a grungy and whimsical vibe to this piece.

It’s an oversized number with a zip-up closure and a drawstring to pull the hood taut. Since this hoodie comes in brown, you’re likely to get lots of use out of it, because the neutral tone pairs well with a variety of colors. Plus, warm items like this get a ton of wear no matter the season because you can throw them over everything from dresses and tops to tying them around your waist for a layered moment on particularly breezy summer days.

Olivia Rodrigo Swing Line Art T-shirt

The singer’s cover art for her new album has drawn comparisons to The Swing, a famous rococo painting by Jean-Honoré Fragonard.


These graphic T-shirts feature Rodrigo’s album cover front and center. One comes in pink, framed by flowers in the shape of a heart, while the other features graphics of the artist solo in black and tan. We love styles like this because they are comfortable and oversized, leaving the wearer feeling relaxed and unrestricted, and they go with most items you likely already have in your closet.

Pop this on with a denim miniskirt and combat boots for an edgy moment, or keep it casual with barrel jeans and sneakers. Styles come in sizes XS to 3XL, a range meant to fit most, if not all, body types. If you’re looking for a baggier fit, we’d suggest sizing up. If you want to opt for something more maximalist, give the pink style a try. If you want a more versatile basic in neutrals, the taupe tee should be your go-to.

Hot Topic sells pin sets like this for many fandoms, not just music-related ones. They have themed buttons for anime, TV and movies too.


Our prediction? Buttons will soon dethrone the ever-popular bag charm. Enamel styles like this set of four have been pinned to totes, crossbody bags and shoulder styles since forever, upgrading and diversifying the look of everyday items and turning them into something more personal.

Buttons like these reflect tastes while creating visual interest, much like bag charms. They’re collectible and, unlike bag charms, pins don’t wear down as easily because of the enamel coating. This means they’ll last longer on your bag, even if you’re a bit rough with it.

Después de convertirse en uno de los protagonistas de la ceremonia inaugural de la Copa Mundial de la FIFA 2026Maná celebrará 40 años de trayectoria con un concierto en el Estadio GNP Seguros de Ciudad de México, Maná ya tiene una nueva cita con su público mexicano. La banda anunció un concierto en el Estadio GNP Seguros de Ciudad de México para el próximo 17 de diciembre, una presentación que además tendrá un carácter especial: será su única fecha en México durante 2026.

El anuncio llega en un momento especialmente significativo para la agrupación liderada por Fher Olvera. Su participación en la apertura del Mundial los colocará frente a una audiencia global de millones de espectadores, reafirmando el lugar que ocupan dentro de la historia de la música latina. Pocas bandas del continente pueden presumir una trayectoria con semejante alcance internacional y una conexión tan profunda con varias generaciones de oyentes.

La fecha en Ciudad de México servirá también como una celebración de sus 40 años de historia. Con más de 50 millones de discos vendidos, 11 álbumes de estudio y canciones que se han convertido en parte esencial del repertorio del rock en español, MANÁ continúa siendo una de las agrupaciones más influyentes surgidas en América Latina.

Vivir Sin Aire Tour promete reunir algunos de los mayores clásicos de su catálogo en una producción de gran formato diseñada para repasar una carrera que incluye hitos como Dónde Jugarán los Niños, considerado el álbum de rock latino más vendido de todos los tiempos, además de reconocimientos como múltiples premios GRAMMY y Latin GRAMMY, una estrella en el Paseo de la Fama de Hollywood y la histórica nominación al Salón de la Fama del Rock & Roll en 2025.

El motor creativo de Roger Taylor no se detiene y ahora el músico británico se prepara para el lanzamiento de un nuevo álbum de estudio que llegará en la segunda mitad de este año. Violence Insane In A Beautiful World significará su séptimo trabajo discográfico como solista, del cual ya se conoce su primer adelanto.

Te puede interesar:

‘Come On Summer (It’s Party Time)’ cuenta con la participación del Ndlovu Youth Choir, el grupo sudafricano que captó la atención de Taylor por su versión en zulú de ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’. Tras escuchar el cover, el baterista de Queen quiso invitar a la agrupación para cantar en tres de los 10 cortes que conformarán su próximo LP.

El tema tiene un ritmo enérgico y alegre que refuerza los cantos de celebración que se intercalan entre el inglés y el zulú. “Despierto y le doy la bienvenida al día/Miro a mi alrededor y me digo a mí mismo/El sol salió y me siento nuevo”, se escucha en el verso inicial.

De acuerdo con el músico, no se trata de un álbum conceptual, pero sí está inspirado en la manera en que la maldad está arruinando al mundo: “Sí hay una temática y se explica en el título: vivimos en un mundo hermoso, no lo estropeemos. Están ocurriendo locuras en este momento. La violencia en el mundo parece estar tan mal como siempre lo estuvo en cualquier punto de la historia y, claramente, a lo largo de mi vida. (…) Pareciera como si estuviéramos arruinándolo más con el plástico en el océano, las guerras en todas partes y el odio hacia otras religiones”.

Aun así, aclaró que no será un trabajo oscuro, por el contrario, tendrá un espíritu positivo que invite a recobrar la esperanza en la humanidad. “Es un mundo hermoso. La bondad es importante y creo que la hemos olvidado un montón. Así que, en el fondo, esa es la temática”, añadió.

La portada del álbum es una vista de la Tierra y de la Luna y, coincidencialmente, Taylor se encontraba terminándola cuando se conocieron las fotografías espaciales de Artemis II. El arte del disco está relacionado con la historia que se narra en ‘A Beautiful World’, la canción que abrirá el LP, pues está escrita desde la perspectiva de un alienígena que está orbitando la Tierra desde su nave espacial “pensando en lo hermosa que es”. “Al verla más de cerca, ve que hay problemas, infecciones, violencia y horror en contraposición a todas las cosas buenas que también existen”, explicó.

Violence Insane In A Beautiful World se publicará el 18 de septiembre y llevará a Roger Taylor de viaje por Reino Unido en sus únicos shows de 2026.
