It’s Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players week, and we had Zeddy Will and Cash Cobain join staffers Delisa Shannon and Kyle Denis for an episode of Billboard Unfiltered Live on Wednesday (Sept. 3). Explore See latest videos, charts and news This week’s show debated who is the current king and queen of rap in New York City. Denis went with Joey Bada$$ as the king, based on the dominance he showcased this year in battle and with his new album. “He basically single-handedly took on an entire coast and won,” Denis said. “That new album is flames. He’s got this tour coming up. I’m really proud of the way that Joey maneuvered this year throughout music, throughout fashion, throughout acting.” Zeddy Will went with the queen being Nicki Minaj. “She’s been able to still for all these years come back and sell arenas out,” he claimed. “She did MSG twice back-to-back. Her fanbase is still crazy to this day and she got all the hit records. The numbers don’t lie.” As for Cash, he’s keeping it classic with Hov. “The king of New York is Jay-Z,” he said matter-of-factly. “It’s Jay-Z. Multi-platinum albums [and] president of Def Jam. He’s like the richest rapper, right? What didn’t he do?” Cobain teased rumors that have been swirling about Jay-Z potentially coming back to drop his first solo album since 4:44. “I heard Jay-Z about to drop some s—t. That’s what I heard. That’s about to shake the world,” he said. From Cardi B to A$AP Rocky, plenty of other names were floated for their stake at the crown, but the trio didn’t come off their original picks. Watch the full episode below.

Lady Gaga announced late Wednesday (Sept. 3) that she had to postpone her Mayhem Ball Tour stop in Miami after fans had already packed Kaseya Center for the show. She revealed that her voice was strained during rehearsals on Tuesday night and that it hadn’t improved during her warm-up ahead of Wednesday night’s show. “Hi everyone I am really so so sorry but I need to postpone tonight’s show in Miami,” Gaga wrote in an all-caps message posted to her Instagram Stories. “During rehearsal last night and my vocal warmup tonight my voice was extremely strained and both my [doctor] and vocal coach have advised me not to go on because of the risk it poses.” In her message, Gaga expressed just how “agonizing” the decision was for her to make, but she couldn’t ignore the potential for long-term damage to her voice. “I want to be hardcore and just push through this for you but I don’t want to risk long term or permanent damage on my vocal cords,” Gaga wrote. “There is a significant risk based on all our combined experience with a show like ours and as you know I sing live every night –and even though this was a hard and agonizing decision I would be more afraid of the long term implications on my voice. I hope you can forgive me and accept my sincerest apologies for any disappointment, let down, inconvenience. I am so so sorry. I tried so hard to avoid this. I take serious care of myself to be able to put on this highly demanding show. I love my fans so much, respect you and hope you can accept my sincere regretful apology.” To end the message, Gaga assured fans: “We are trying to reschedule the show as quickly as possible.” Videos on social media showed fans pouring out of Miami’s Kaseya Center after being informed of the last-minute postponement. Gaga kicked off her Mayhem Ball Tour in Las Vegas in July and has U.S. dates scheduled through Sept. 18 in Chicago. Her international dates — with stops in Europe, Australia and Asia — go through Jan. 30. Next up, Gaga is scheduled for two more dates at New York’s Madison Square Garden this weekend — on Saturday and Sunday — as well as a performance on Sunday night’s MTV Video Music Awards. Earlier Wednesday, Gaga dropped “The Dead Dance,” featured in the second season of Wednesday, along with a Tim Burton-directed music video and a deluxe edition of her most recent Mayhem album.

SoFi Stadium opened its doors to members of the media Wednesday (Sept. 3) to preview the NFL facility’s food and beverage offerings ahead of the home-opening game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Houston Texans this Sunday. The L.A. stadium — which is also the home venue of the L.A. Chargers and hosting a number of big-ticket concerts this fall, including two headlining dates by Chris Brown (Sept. 13-14) — showcased dozens of menu items sold across its suites, clubs and concession stands during the tasting event, from tomahawk steaks to the stadium’s signature all-beef hot dog, which regional executive chef Robert Biebrich at Legends for SoFi Stadium says is the venue’s reigning best-seller. “We sell about 8,000 hot dogs per game,” Biebrich tells Billboard, noting that other stadium staples like hamburgers and pizza come in second and third place on game day, followed by regional flavors at the stadium, which are sold at the stadium’s concession stands and organized by street name honoring four well-known Los Angeles neighborhoods. On display were beef empanadas and al pastor tortas sold at Olvera Street, Asian-infused fried chicken at Sawtelle, square pepperoni pizzas on San Vicente and American eats like cheeseburgers and chicken strips at the stadium’s Fairfax stand. “We source the vast majority of our menu items locally and rely on our vendors to buy fresh from suppliers across Southern California — we are very blessed with the abundance of choices available to us,” Biebrich tells Billboard. In the stadium’s suites and club levels, those choices included Louisiana hot link sandwiches, bacon-wrapped L.A. street dogs, hand-cut sushi rolls and breaded chicken cutlet sandwiches. Much of the menu was based on popular street food items, like BBQ-grilled sweet corn smothered in cajun butter, hot sauce and cheese, or loaded mac and cheese bowls, topped off with BBQ burnt pork ends and pickled onions. One of Biebrich’s favorite items, the Texas Twinkie Burger, borrows from a Lone Star State tradition, replacing the Hostess snack cake with a tender beef brisket and cream cheese-stuffed jalapeno pepper wrapped in bacon and slathered in smoky barbecue sauce. Biebrich also showcased a number of specially crafted cocktails available at Rams and Chargers games, including the Mexican-themed Ultra Michelada, which is built for a Michelob Ultra beer and includes San Marzano tomatoes, ancho chiles, tamarindo, tajin and chamoy stick, or the Hail Mary Mule, which includes Ketel One Vodka and Chinola liqueur, key lime agave, Fever Tree ginger beer and is garnished with dehydrated citrus. “We try to offer a wide selection, with items that are adventurous and daring, and those that feel a little more familiar and approachable,” Biebrich said. “The goal is that fans have a unique and memorable experience each time they visit SoFi Stadium and they feel good about the time they spent here.” Recent music stars who have headlined SoFi include Shakira, for two dates of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour in August; BLACKPINK, for three dates of their DEADLINE tour in July; and Beyoncé, for five concerts of her Cowboy Carter Tour in April and May. Beyond Brown’s two-night stand this month, the next non-football event on the SoFi schedule (so far) is a one-night-only show from comics Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias and Jo Koy in March 2026.

Young Thug is finding himself in a bit of precarious situation these days. Over the past week or so, the Atlanta rapper has been dealing with leaked audio from jail phone calls and interrogations from when he was incarcerated for three years awaiting his YSL RICO trial, and some of the subject matter has led to him receiving backlash online. Thugger seemingly addressed the vitriol that’s been coming his way this afternoon with a tweet that reads, “Bashing me only goin f— that rap community up more, I’m the blue to this fake a– game.” Last week, Thug tweeted, “Stop trying to make me one of those boys. Death before dishonor this way kids,” and also tweeted and deleted a message that read: “They didn’t play my interrogation video in court cause I helped my brada #Ratwhere,” in regards to leaked interrogation room audio in which he allegedly mentioned Peewee Roscoe when talking to investigators about Lil Wayne‘s tour bus incident from 2015. Roscoe then came to Thug’s defense by addressing the audio on social media. “Jeff clean as Listerine, man,” he said. “Clean as ivory soap, ya feel what I’m saying? I done the time. I did that. That’s what you supposed to do. When you go into the interrogation room, that’s what you do.” The Gunna fanpage @Gunnaupdates on X is mainly responsible for posting the leaked audio and recently told Rolling Stone that some fans “have been sitting on these for a while now,” and that anyone can obtain public records like jail calls by making an Open Records Request with the county. If you recall, last year a jail call between Thug and his girlfriend Mariah the Scientist made its way online, and the Cobb County Jail told Billboard the same thing, saying that “the Cobb County Sheriff’s routinely receives and fulfills open records requests of phone calls and video visitations for Jeffery Williams.” Since Gunna decided to take an Alford Plea a few months after being arrested in connection to the YSL RICO case, Young Thug has thrown jabs online at his former collaborator once tweeting, “If u a rapper and u a rat, u gotta just go gospel twin,” and deleting a tweet telling Gunna to “stop acting like we friends on the internet.” Source link
