Charli xcx is on a “runway that goes straight to hell” for her new “SS26” song and music video, which arrived Thursday night (May 21).

For the music video — directed by Torso from a concept by Charli — the singer/songwriter walks the Paris runways in a series of high-fashion looks as she sings lyrics about both style and substance. “Spring Summer ’26/ When the world is gonna end, no hope for any of it/ Yeah, we’re walking on a runway that goes straight to hell/ Nothing’s gonna save us, not music, fashion, or film.”

In the second verse, Charli has some fun with the cancel-culture news cycle, singing, “I was hacked, it got taken out of context, obviously/ But I didn’t do it, even if I did, wrote a really good notes app apology.”

Watch the music video below:

“SS26” arrives two weeks after the release of “Rock Music,” the first taste of Charli’s seventh studio album, which doesn’t yet have a title or release date. Following her buzzy comeback with 2024’s Brat album, Charli announced her intent to pivot away from the dance genre on “Rock Music,” singing: “I think the dance floor is dead/ So now we’re making rock music.” This seemed to catch the attention of Madonna, whose own dance album Confessions II arrives on July 3. The Queen of Pop declared in an Instagram post this week: “If your Dance floor feels dead, maybe you’re playing the wrong music.”

“Rock Music” and “SS26” will both be included on Charli’s yet-untitled next album.

Kenny Chesney lands his milestone 100th entry on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart as “Carry On” opens at No. 31 on the May 23 list. It totaled 1.5 million chart-eligible U.S. streams, 10.5 million in radio airplay audience and 2,000 sold May 8-14, according to Luminate.

The track marks Chesney’s first single on Hey Now Records, which launched in March, and previews his 21st album, due later this year. He has scored 55 top 10s, including 23 No. 1s. The song also starts at No. 20 on Country Airplay, where it’s likewise his 100th appearance.

“When I think about ‘American Kids,’ ‘Young,’ ‘You and Tequila,’ ‘When the Sun Goes Down,’ all the way back to ‘The Tin Man,’ it’s hearing my life in music,” Chesney tells Billboard, referencing some his most beloved hits. “To be told ‘Carry On’ is my 100th charting single, I feel like this is a life that’s not just well-lived, but has so much more great music ahead.”

The 100-title milestone lifts Chesney into elite company among acts with 100 or more hits on Hot Country Songs, which dates to October 1958. George Jones leads with 157. Dating to Chesney’s first charted title, “Whatever It Takes,” in December 1993, he boasts the third-most, after Morgan Wallen (119) and Taylor Swift (108). (The chart adopted its current multimetric methodology — a combination of streaming, airplay and sales — in October 2012.)

On Country Airplay, which began in January 1990 and solely tracks country radio airplay, Chesney’s 100th charted title ties him for the lead with George Strait. Garth Brooks (93), Tim McGraw (91) and Alan Jackson (82) round out the top five.

Chesney also stands out among Hot Country Songs’ most prolific No. 1 artists. His 23 leaders place him 11th overall, behind Strait’s 44, Conway Twitty’s 40, Merle Haggard’s 38, Ronnie Milsap’s 35, Alabama’s 33, Charley Pride’s 29, Jackson and McGraw’s 26 each, Dolly Parton’s 25 and Reba McEntire’s 24. In that legacy-heavy group, Chesney earned a first No. 1 most recently, with “She’s Got It All” in 1997.

Chesney’s power is even more apparent at country radio. His 33 Country Airplay No. 1s put him firmly in first place, ahead of Blake Shelton (30), McGraw (29), Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Jackson, Strait (26 each), Thomas Rhett, Keith Urban (21 each), Brooks & Dunn, Luke Combs, Toby Keith, Brad Paisley and Wallen (20 each).

Plus, since Chesney notched his first No. 1 on Top Country Albums, his Greatest Hits, in October 2000, his 17 leaders are the most among all artists in that span.

The milestones underscore the scope of Chesney’s career, one that has made him both a country radio standard-bearer and one of the most prolific hitmakers in the nine-decade history of Billboard’s country charts.

The Iceman is a man of the people. Drake flew to upstate New York and pulled up on NYFlavaaa, who has gained a following singing along with his kids in the car to plenty of Drizzy anthems, and surprised the family with a brand new Escalade SUV.

Drake was in the backseat rapping along to “Janice STFU,” and the crew picked up NYFlavaaa’s daughter from school, who was stuck in shock briefly, but went right into going bar-for-bar with Drake on the Iceman standout.

“Straight from the 6 to the 716, this man needs no introduction,” NYFlavaaa shouted from the driver’s seat. His daughter impressively nailed all of Drake’s verse on “Janice STFU” in less than a week.

Drake posted a photo with the family to his Instagram Story on Thursday (May 21). “Finally made it to see the family @nyflavaaa Picked our goat up from school And a new Escalade for the gang members cause why not,” he wrote.

NYFlavaaa was very emotional while tearing up in an IG Story. “This motherf–ker gave me an Escalade,” he said. “Thank you Jesus, thank you Drake, Chubbs — it’s love. It’s gonna be a lot of tears today.”

“Janice STFU” landed as track No. 4 on Drake’s Iceman album, which arrived on May 15 alongside Habibti and Maid of Honour. The Roget Chahayed-produced cut contains an interpolation of Lykke Li’s “I Follow Rivers,” which caught the Swedish singer off guard.

“Strangely enough, I’ve been really craving Drake and have actually been listening to ‘Marvins Room’ lately,’” she revealed to Rolling Stone. “The old Drake was such an era. When you’d walk into a room and they’d play ‘Hotline Bling.’ … So yeah, I was missing him.”

Live Nation must be broken up from Ticketmaster, state attorneys general told a federal judge Thursday (May 21), a month after a blockbuster jury verdict that the music giant is an illegal monopoly.

Laying out their proposed punishment after that verdict, a coalition of dozens of states argue in a hotly-anticipated legal brief, obtained by Billboard, that the only way to fix the live music business is to force Live Nation to sell Ticketmaster.

“An order requiring Live Nation to divest Ticketmaster, such that it is capable of restoring competition for primary ticketing contracts with Major Concert Venues,” the states wrote in a list of orders they’re seeking from the judge.

The Department of Justice and dozens of states sued Live Nation in 2024, claiming the company (which acquired Ticketmaster in 2010) had grown into a monopoly that dominates live music: “It is time to break it up,” said then-attorney general Merrick Garland.

A week after the case went to trial in March, the DOJ agreed to a surprise settlement that did not require such a breakup. But dozens of states said that deal was insufficient, and instead pushed ahead with the trial, with the goal of splitting Ticketmaster from Live Nation.

On April 15, jurors handed Live Nation a total defeat — finding that the company had illegally monopolized the market for ticketing services and the use of amphitheaters, and that it had illegally tied the use of its venues to its concert promotion services.

Now, a month later, the states have made it official. In the terminology of antitrust law, they’re asking the judge to impose “structural remedies” that require Live Nation’s “divestiture” of Ticketmaster. “Plaintiffs are evaluating the scope of assets, contracts, personnel, and systems that would be necessary for a standalone Ticketmaster to effectively compete in the market for primary ticketing services,” the states wrote in seeking that order.

That’s not all the states want. They also asked the judge to force Live Nation to divest “a sufficient number” of large amphitheaters, as well as put limits or prohibitions on the company when it comes to acquiring such venues in the future. And they want “money damages for overcharges on ticketing fees paid by residents of the Plaintiff States” as well as the handover of “ill-gotten profits derived from ticketing fees” during the time of the “unlawful monopoly.”

A rep for Live Nation did not immediately return a request for comment on Thursday. The company is expected to argue that the case can be resolved solely by the changes to its business practices previously agreed to with the DOJ, including limiting the use of exclusive contracts, without divesting Ticketmaster. “We remain confident that the ultimate outcome of the states’ case will not be materially different than what is envisioned by the DOJ settlement,” said Live Nation in a statement last month.
