DJ Khaled Explains Not Stepping Into Drake, Future & Rick Ross’ Feuds

Beef isn’t on the menu for DJ Khaled. The We The Best mogul joined Joe & Jada for an episode on Thursday (Sept. 11), where he explained why he didn’t step in when Drake was feuding with Future and Rick Ross last year. Explore See latest videos, charts and news “I love Drake, I love [Rick] Ross, I love Future,” Khaled responded to Fat Joe’s questioning. “What it feel like I didn’t get in that energy. There’s two energies I’m not gonna get in: hate.” Joe followed up: “How do you deal with hate, brother?” Khaled fired back as if it was a rhetorical question: “I don’t.” Khaled continued: “And then when you speak about all those great legends you just talked about… Those are my brothers. You can’t question my friendship. How? Ain’t nobody like DJ motherf—ing Khaled. Joe, you know that.” DJ Khaled chalked much of the feuding up to a “misunderstanding” and a lack of communication, but he ultimately would “love” to be the common thread between the parties and squash the beef. “A lot of this sh– is a misunderstanding and a lot of not [communicating]. And that’s what it be about. When it comes down to DJ Khaled, I’m gonna be the one that tries to fix it,” he added. “I love my brothers and my brothers know that. I would love to squash it.” Khaled has an extensive collaborative history with Drake, Future and Rick Ross, and it remains to be seen if any of the trio will make an appearance on his Aalam of God album. Back in February, Drake seemed to play dumb when Khaled revealed he had a pair of Drizzy tracks slated to land on his album. “Must be Drake Bell,” the 6 God wrote on social media. Khaled has kicked off his Aalam of God rollout with a pair of singles. The first being “Brother” featuring a clash from Post Malone and NBA Young Boy, and a dance hall-tinged track titled “You Remind Me,” which features a line-up of Bounty Killer, Buju Banton, Kaylan Arnold, Mavado, Rorystonelove and Vybz Kartel.

Country Artists React to Activist’s Murder

Kane Brown took to social media last night, opening up about his feelings following both the killing of Kirk and a school shooting that took place that same day in Colorado. In a series of posts on his Instagram page and Stories, Brown first posted a photo of a news report about the school shooting that took place at a high school in Colorado, accompanied by a broken heart emoji. Brown then posted a photo of Kirk and his family, also accompanied by a broken heart emoji. Brown also posted a longer video, offering up a plea, saying, “I’m gettin’ mad, man, ’cause I don’t know what to say. I’m very uneducated on this stuff. At the end of the day, all I want is everybody to love each other. That’s really all I want. Left side, right side, Black, white, different languages speaking, different country living, just love each other. If you see somebody down, please pick them up. I’ve been crying [for] two hours. This is the first video, now I’m just gettin’ mad, because somethin’s telling me that I have to post this video. I don’t talk about this s–t. I don’t do politics. That’s not for me. I just want y’all to love each other. It’s really not that hard. I get it, some people can say some pretty messed up stuff, especially with the internet these days… just love each other. Help each other out.” Subsequently, Brown was attacked by commenters on both political sides for his comments. The singer-songwriter posted a video on his Instagram Stories soon after, saying, “Guys, I apologize if I offended anybody. This is really not me picking sides. This is just a ‘f–ked-up world’ post, to be honest. We all need to do better. There was a school shooting, there’s been thousands of school shootings. I want to pray to those families as well. I want to pray to Charlie’s family. I want to pray to anybody out there who’s had a family member’s life taken by someone who wanted to hurt them, or them being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I don’t understand why it has to happen. I don’t understand why war has to happen. That’s all this post is, that we just live in a f–ked-up world.” On that Instagram Stories series, he also noted, “I need y’all to see these are from both sides. We are the problem.” He also shared messages from some of the commenters on both sides, including one who asked, “Why didn’t you post about the Democratic representatives being murdered?!!!!,” presumably referring to the killings of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman as well as her husband Mark Hortman in June. Brown posted in another Instagram Stories message, “I don’t see why y’all look at each other in such a hateful way.” He also responded to another commenter who accused him of “offending your ancestors” as a biracial man. Brown responded by saying he’s been called racial slurs his whole life. “I don’t want those people dead,” Brown said. He also added a broken heart emoji and noted, “My last post for a while be safe guys and love one another.” Source link

Jay-Z Says His Times Square Casino Bid ‘Makes Perfect Sense’

Jay-Z’s Roc Nation, alongside partners SL Green and Caesars, is making its latest pitch to open a casino in New York City’s Times Square. Hov hopes to bring a multi-billion-dollar casino to the heart of Broadway by obtaining one of the three available casino licenses for the downstate area. Ahead of a second hearing with the Community Advisory Committee on Thursday (Sept. 11), the Roc Nation mogul sat down with City & State New York to detail why his plan for NYC’s first casino should reign supreme. “New York City is the entertainment capital of the world, so the idea of a world-class casino here makes perfect sense,” Jay said. “I’ve always looked at opportunities that can shift culture while uplifting communities, and Caesars Palace Times Square is exactly that.” Explore See latest videos, charts and news He added that the new casino would be “an extension of culture, an extension of the energy and action that makes New York the city it is.” The Roc Nation bid hopes it will stand out among the rest due to its plans to give back to the surrounding NYC community. The company pledged to invest $15 million to the surrounding area if their license is granted in addition to 0.5 percent of the casino’s profits, all part of a $250 million community funding promise. “Our vision is to build a destination that not only attracts visitors but also gives New Yorkers a place they’re proud to enjoy. A casino here doesn’t compete with Times Square – it complements it,” he added in his latest interview. “We’re creating a hub that draws even more people into the neighborhood, generating new energy, new business, and new opportunities for everyone.” Officials for the Times Square casino bid have already begun the community outreach process to align with initiatives from marginalized communities in the area to pour into. “The way we put it in our application is we made our license contingent upon us providing and writing these checks,” Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez told Billboard. “For example, for the LGBTQ initiative, we’re providing five million dollars to Callen-Lorde. We’re just putting the money in their hands and they’ve agreed with us. We have an agreement with them in writing about what they are going to do with that money.” She continued to explain: “So that’s how we’ve done it with each one of these, and the beauty is, let’s say we get the license tomorrow, the day after we’re paying. We don’t have to build out our casino or be in business in order to pay the money. It would be the quickest money to the ground for the community.” It’s been a slow-moving process, but Jay and company should know if they’ll be in an “Empire State of Mind” in the near future when it comes to breaking ground on the first NYC casino.

BigHit Music First Rookie Group in 6 Years

Launched by BigHit Music as the label’s first new group in six years, CORTIS has been widely seen as the next act to follow in the footsteps of BTS and TOMORROW X TOGETHER. Explore See latest videos, charts and news From their manifesto-like debut track “GO!” to the punchy “What You Want,” their music is marked by free-spirited energy and refreshing visuals. Even before debut, the group caught attention for participating in overseas songwriting camps, setting them apart from the typical rookie path. On Monday (Sept. 8), the group unveiled their first album, COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES, with a commemorative release event. This was CORTIS’ first stand-alone concert under their own name — and also their largest stage to date. The venue, with just under 8,000 seats, carries its own symbolism, as BTS also stood on the same stage roughly a decade ago. Every seat was filled, while fans from 190 countries tuned in via Weverse, HYBE Labels’ official YouTube channel and TikTok. The event was designed to introduce the album in the members’ own words, premiere new performances and create lasting memories with fans. The lights dimmed, and as the first heavy beats dropped, the anticipation for CORTIS’ arrival reached its peak. In a surprising move, the group didn’t appear from the main stage but emerged instead through the ground-floor entrance aisle, immediately catching the audience off guard. The unexpected entrance segued into the first-ever performance of their follow-up track “FaSHioN,” a song choreographed with input from the members themselves. After its powerful, addictive energy contrasted with earlier releases “GO!” and “What You Want,” the members briefly addressed the crowd before launching into “GO!,” the very song that first introduced CORTIS to the world. They then offered behind-the-scenes stories about the making of their debut album and music videos. “We wanted to keep things casual with you, so we decided to go without an MC,” leader Martin explained, displaying the poise and confidence of a seasoned frontman. During the “album brag time,” the members described their project as “complicated yet simple, just like our inner selves,” “an honest album,” and “all about freshness.” CORTIS Courtesy of BIGHIT Music Soon after, the stage transformed into “the hideout,” a set designed to resemble the members’ own studio space. Here, they reminisced with fans by sharing memories attached to five emojis drawn on Post-its, recalling their early days before debut. Inspired by “FaSHioN,” the group launched into a fan event to find the “Best CORTIS Look-Alike.” Juhun and James roamed the second-floor seats while Martin, Gunho, and Sunghyun descended into the first floor, delighting fans with up-close interactions. Fans couldn’t hide their excitement as they exchanged high-fives and hand hearts with the members, amplifying the energy in the venue. Later, after a costume change, CORTIS returned to the stage with a jaw-dropping expansion of their already-acclaimed treadmill performance of “What You Want.” While they had previously performed with 11 treadmills on a music broadcast, this time the number swelled to 31. Even while dancing on the moving machines, the group executed flawless choreography and led the crowd into synchronized waves of cheers. The mood shifted again with the first live stages of album tracks “JoyRide” and “Lullaby.” Where earlier songs had highlighted the group’s intensity, these numbers showcased restraint and emotional depth. “JoyRide” unfolded with the warmth of a carefree drive through Malibu, while “Lullaby”—which Martin singled out for its favorite opening lyric, “Why turn on the A/C when it’s already cold?”—captured the suffocating pressures of adolescence. The music video for “Lullaby” also premiered during the event, just before fans passionately demanded an encore of “FaSHioN.” Donning T-shirts printed with fan notes, the group charged across the stage with even greater abandon than before. As the concert neared its conclusion, emotions ran high. Eldest member James shed tears while expressing gratitude: “Thank you so much to everyone who came today.” Having endured the longest trainee period among the members, his words carried palpable weight. Sunghyun was visibly moved as well, while Martin addressed the crowd with steady conviction: “Thank you sincerely for filling this space today. It’s going to be a long journey, but we hope you’ll stay with us.” The group then delivered “What You Want” in a special handheld mic version. But the night didn’t end there. Fueled by fans’ unrelenting chants, CORTIS surprised everyone with an unscripted double encore, once again performing “FaSHioN.” A final photo session—a hallmark of K-pop shows—closed out the two-hour release party. Even as the curtain fell, the members waved until the last moment, while fans lingered outside the venue, reflecting on the unforgettable experience. CORTIS’ debut has not been without scrutiny. Their first single “GO!” drew attention for its surprisingly polished execution, especially for a group composed entirely of minors. Their self-produced original music video for “What You Want” even sparked speculation over whether it was “too staged.” Yet the release party put such doubts to rest, offering authenticity in abundance. From revealing the decision to use 360-degree cameras in the MV to anecdotes like naming “Lullaby” after catching a member asleep on the studio couch, CORTIS demonstrated how deeply involved they are in every facet of their artistry. Despite being rookies, they commanded the stage without an MC for more than two hours, filling the time with stories, music, and natural charisma. Their flawless execution of demanding choreography, ease in navigating a large venue, and genuine passion for music all underscored that their talent speaks for itself. Their eyes sparkled whenever they talked about music, and Martin’s promise—“We’ll continue to show you stages that you love, as artists who love music just as much”—resonated as proof of their sincerity. The release party was not simply a debut showcase. It was a declaration of intent from a self-proclaimed “young creator crew,” determined to carve out their own path rather than conform to prescribed standards. Instead of conforming to ready-made answers or rigid molds, CORTIS created their debut album ‘COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES’ with

Bert Berns Posthumously Inducted into Songwriters Hall of Fame

Bert Berns, the late songwriter whose many hits include “Twist and Shout,” “Piece of My Heart,” “Hang on Sloopy” and “I Want Candy,” was inducted posthumously into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in a ceremony held on Wednesday (Sept. 10) at 54 Below cabaret club in New York City. Berns died more than a half-century ago, so while his name may not be familiar to all, his songs are. “Twist and Shout” was a top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 for The Isley Brothers in 1962 and a No. 2 smash for The Beatles in 1964. The Beatles’ recording returned to the top 30 in 1986, when it was featured in the box-office hit Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. “Piece of My Heart” was a No. 62 hit on Hot 100 hit in 1967 for Erma Franklin (Aretha’s elder sister) and a No. 12 smash in 1968 for Big Brother & the Holding Company, with Janis Joplin out front. “Hang on Sloopy” was a No. 1 hit in 1965 for The McCoys. It was also a No. 11 hit that same year for Ramsey Lewis Trio. “I Want Candy” was a No. 11 hit on the Hot 100 in 1965 for The Strangeloves. Other hits that Berns wrote or cowrote include The Exciters’ “Tell Him” (No. 4 on the Hot 100 in 1963), Betty Harris’ “Cry to Me” (No. 23 in 1963) and Wilson Pickett’s “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love” (No. 29 in 1967). In addition, he produced songs he didn’t have a hand in writing, including The Drifters’ “Under the Boardwalk” and Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl,” both of which made the top 10 on the Hot 100. The event was hosted by musician Paul Shaffer and Berns’ son Brett and daughter Cassandra. Tributes included video messages from SHOF inductees Paul McCartney and Van Morrison. Guests included Steven Van Zandt and SHOF inductee Steve Miller. Also in attendance were industry veterans Joel Selvin, Russ Titelman, Avery Lipman, Kenny Laguna and SHOF Board members Charlie Feldman and Pete Ganbarg, chairman of the SHOF Legacy Committee. The celebration of Berns’ legacy included live performances by Cassandra Berns, singer Betty Harris, Tony-nominated actress Mary Bridget Davies (A Night With Janis Joplin) and Broadway stars from the musical Piece of My Heart: The Bert Berns Story. Highlights included a performance of “Cry to Me” by Harris, an artist signed to Berns’ Jubilee record label. The night concluded with Fenkart leading the audience in a finale of “Twist and Shout.” The annual SHOF gala in June does not normally include posthumous inductions – the SHOF prefers that event to have a celebratory mood. But the organization has started hosting special posthumous inductions at unique venues and events. In April 2024, it awarded Cindy Walker, whose many hits included the cross-genre classic “You Don’t Know Me,” in a special event at historic Columbia Studio A in Nashville. Walker died in 2006 at age 87. “The ceremony at Columbia Studio A was warm, intimate, and respectful,” SHOF board member Fletcher Foster said in a statement at the time of the ceremony for Walker. “SHOF president and CEO Linda Moran says this now sets the stage for future posthumous inductions.” Deceased writers to be considered for posthumous induction were included in a special segment of the 2025 SHOF ballot. In 1963, Berns’ work with Solomon Burke caught the attention of Atlantic Records’ chiefs Ahmet Ertegun and Jerry Wexler, and he joined the label as a producer, replacing Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. He flourished under the encouragement of Wexler. In 1965, he started his own rock n’ roll label, BANG Records, whose roster included the likes of Neil Diamond, Van Morrison and The McCoys. The following year, he established R&B and soul music label Shout Records. Berns, who had a history of cardiac trouble, died in his New York apartment of heart failure in December 1967 at age 38.

Spinal Tap’s Nigel Tufnel and David St. Hubbins on Their Reunion

After more than 15 years, Spinal Tap has reunited to play one more gig and director Marty DiBergi (Rob Reiner), who captured the band in all its fading glory for 1984’s This Is Spinal Tap, has once again chronicled the reunion and the intervening years in Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. The mockumentary opens in theaters nationwide on Friday (Sept. 12). Explore See latest videos, charts and news Prior to the film’s opening, Billboard interviewed the British band’s Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest) and David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) — bass player Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) was unavailable — in Los Angeles about the long-awaited reunion, as well as working with Sir Paul McCartney. Suffice to say St. Hubbins is not a fan, but concedes that the former Beatle is, at best, a “decent songwriter.” The pair also share their memories of the late Ozzy Osbourne and what they thought of the original film. “It felt like it was just yesterday,” Tufnel says of the reunion, “because you look and everyone’s in the same place.” “Looking the same. More tattoos,” St. Hubbins interjects. “Except old. You think, ‘That’s weird. There’s an old man singing and you go, ‘Oh, that’s me!’” The duo, who claimed to have not seen the new movie, also took exception with the original film, feeling DiBergi had portrayed them at their worst, including the legendary footage of them getting lost on their way to the stage. “We felt ridiculed, and it wasn’t a good feeling,” St. Hubbins says. “Us being lost. Everyone gets lost every once in a while,” added Tufnel, before St. Hubbins jumped back in: “It’s only happened to us 10 or 12 times.” Watch the video above to see their reaction to being denied induction to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, as well as their thoughts on Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood’s cover of “Big Bottom” that went viral and helped spur the reunion.

Maren Morris to Perform at 2025 espnW: Women + Sports Summit

Maren Morris will perform and sit down for a keynote conversation at the 2025 espnW: Women + Sports Summit, Billboard can exclusively reveal. The Grammy-winning singer/songwriter will first take the stage for a conversation with sports reporter Sarah Spain before performing at the event, which goes down Oct. 28-30 at the Ojai Valley Inn in Ojai, California. Now in its 16th year, the espnW: Women + Sports Summit aims to bring together “trailblazers across sports, business, entertainment, and culture to drive change and opportunity for women in sports.” Programming includes keynote speakers and conversations, panel discussions, and interactive breakout sessions, capped by evening entertainment and gatherings. Wellness and sports activities (of course) are also woven throughout the day. And if you can’t make it to Ojai, all the Summit sessions will stream across espnW and ESPN digital and social platforms. Last year, Grammy-winning musician Brittany Howard closed the Summit with a keynote performance. Morris released her fourth album, D R E A M S I C L E, back in May and is currently on a tour in support of the project, wrapping at the end of this month. Her biggest hits include two Billboard Hot 100 top 20 entries: “The Middle” with Zedd and Grey (No. 5 in 2018) and “The Bones” (No. 12 in 2020). Both songs topped the Adult Pop Airplay and Adult Contemporary charts, while “The Middle” went to No. 1 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs (for a staggering 33 weeks), Radio Songs (nine weeks) and Pop Airplay (seven weeks) and “The Bones” was No. 1 on Hot Country Songs (19 weeks) and Country Airplay (two weeks). While her career began in country music — with four Country Airplay chart-toppers and five wins apiece at the ACM Awards and CMA Awards — Morris formally announced her exit from the genre in 2023, telling the Los Angeles Times: “I thought I’d like to burn it to the ground and start over, but it’s burning itself down without my help.” As for her love of sports, during the pandemic, Morris picked up tennis and then set up a travel pickleball court for her crew during her 2022 tour. “Since I was still getting to know the crew members who were new to my team, pickleball was a great way to get the crew together and bond over a game that is entertaining and social in nature,” Morris told Pickleball Magazine in a 2022 interview. “…It’s just fun to walk past after a few hours and see the crew playing and they’ve picked up their own game. It makes me so happy it’s caught on and maybe they’ll go home and play during the week when they’re off the road.” You can find more details about the 2025 espnW: Women + Sports Summit presented by Toyota here.
