Drake took fans inside his $185 million Air Drake for a tour of the luxe private jet the 6 God posted to Instagram on Sunday (July 20).

Drizzy upgraded the Boeing 767 with renovations across the board as he redesigned the interior to give the plane a “more luxurious, warmer” aesthetic that now feels more like a plush lounge compared to the “old and pink” vibe.

“When I first got my plane, I was in this hangar. It’s, like, probably one of the craziest moments of my life,” he said. “I actually didn’t believe it until [Cargojet CEO Ajay Virmani] told me, ‘I’m gonna get you the biggest jet in the game out of anybody, like, it’d be like you and the president, that’s it.’”

Drake began the tour showing off his master bedroom. “The most important room right off the rip,” he quipped. Drizzy headed to the main lounge filled with custom designer pillows and a Stake gaming table for anyone who gets the casino itch while riding through the clouds.

There are three additional guest bedrooms for those looking to catch up on some sleep and a movie theater to relax and get lost in some blockbusters while passing time in the air.

“THE NEW AIR DRAKE CA$TLE IN THE SKY,” Drizzy captioned the post as Ludacris and PARTYNEXTDOOR showed him love. Comedian Lil Duval even joked: “He could fit my poass plane in his plane!”

Drake reportedly received Air Drake as a gift from Cargojet in 2019, featuring a paint job from the late designer Virgil Abloh.

“We have had a lengthy relationship with Drake and this partnership has grown organically between both parties. Cargojet and Drake are both great Canadian successes. We are thrilled to be partnering together,” Virmani said in 2019.

Drake teased a redesign of his Air Drake last year as part of his 100 Gigs content drop. On the music side, Drizzy seemingly kicked off the Iceman rollout of his upcoming album with the “What Did I Miss” single, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo have officially hit the 11-year mark in their marriage, and both parties are celebrating the milestone in style.

In separate Instagram posts Saturday (July 19), the Maroon 5 frontman and model gushed about their love for each other to commemorate the occasion. Sharing a photo of his wife rocking a white cowboy hat while enjoying a drink outdoors and petting a dog, Levine wrote, “Happy anniversary to my favorite person in the world.”

Prinsloo posted several photos of herself and Levine over the years, writing, “My person for life!!! 11 years today! @adamlevine deep sea baby….”

The snaps show Prinsloo and her husband at different stages in their relationship, from riding in the car together in their younger years to posing in photo booths and kissing on the water with a massive yacht in the background. The pair first met in 2012 and tied the knot on July 19, 2014, with a ceremony in Mexico.

Levine and the Calirosa Tequila founder have since welcomed three children together, sharing 9-year-old daughter Dusty Rose, 7-year-old daughter Gio Grace and a 2-year-old son. Shortly before their third little one arrived in January 2023, the musician was accused of cheating on his wife with Instagram model Sumner Stroh, who shared screenshots of alleged flirty messages between herself and Levine.

The three-time Grammy winner went on to apologize for his actions in a statement on Instagram Stories, clarifying that he had not had an affair, but acknowledging that he “used poor judgement in speaking with anyone other than [his] wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner.”

Three years later, the couple is still going strong. And in a recent appearance on Hot Ones, Levine shared a hilarious memory from early on in his relationship with his partner, recalling how Blake Shelton tricked him into handing over $5,000 for a nonexistent “teacup pig” as a gift for Prinsloo.

Maroon 5 are gearing up to release their Love Is Like album on Aug. 15, which Levine recently revealed will contain features from Lil Wayne and Sexyy Red; so far they’re released two singles ahead of the 10-track album, “All Night” and “Priceless” with BLACKPINK’s LISA.

Mariah Carey is Here For It All. The pop icon announced the title and release date of her 16th album on Monday morning (July 21), revealing that the LP fans have been calling “MC16” will drop on Sept. 26. The news came in a brief Instagram video in which MC flipped her hair back and walked slowly in shiny black leather high-heeled boots and black cat suit in front of a giant mural of herself, with the album title spelled out over and over in black and white behind her.

It ended with a brief snippet of the title track in which Carey crooned, “I’m here for it all!” The final image appears to be the album’s cover picture, featuring a broadly smiling Carey, eyes closed, filling up most of the page, her hair blowing in the wind as she holds her left arm up to her cheek and her right hand up to her chest.

So far, in June Carey dropped the single “Type Dangerous” — and, recently, an accompanying EP featuring collabs with Method Mad, Big Sean, DJ Snake and others — and previewed the song “Sugar Sweet” from the follow-up to her 2018 Caution album. Carey told Apple Music last month that the album was “finished,” but at press time a full track listing had not yet been announced.

The singer earned her milestone 50th Billboard Hot 100 hit when “Type Dangerous” debuted at No. 95 on the singles tally last month. The track is her first nonseasonal song to reach the Hot 100 since “I Don’t” with YG logged a week on the list in Feb. 25, 2017.

After a nearly 30-year career studded with milestone achievements — game-changing pioneer of the ‘90s neo soul movement, a string of gold and platinum albums and singles (“Pretty Wings,” “Lifetime” and “Simply Beautiful”) plus three Grammys, among other accolades — what’s next? If you’re Maxwell, you announce the itinerary and performer lineup for your third annual Urban Hang Suite Cruise. But in advance of that, you amp up your intimacy quotient with a new residency, The Silent Serenade Ensemble.

Inspired by Maxwell’s The Serenade 2024 tour, The Silent Serenade Ensemble is a limited, four-night run of residencies at the MGM National Harbor in Washington, D.C. (Sept. 18, 19 & 20) and the historic Kings Theatre in the singer-songwriter-producer’s hometown of Brooklyn, New York (Sept. 28). Still continuing its run into 2025, Maxwell’s aforementioned The Serenade Tour wraps in October, featuring rotating support on various dates from special guests Lucky Daye, Marsha Ambrosius, Leela James and Kem.

“The ensemble can be anything we want,” explains Maxwell of the concept behind the upcoming Silent Serenade performances. “It can be a choir that sings in doo-wop, it can be all strings including harps, it can be reeds… It can be all kinds of versions and combinations of instruments that you’ve never seen put together before to present and perform songs that people know already and deeper cuts.”

Maxwell fans will recall this isn’t the first time the artist has rendered unique reinterpretations of his music. He performed at several sold-out dates in 2023, accompanied by symphony orchestras in San Francisco, Las Vegas and Washington, D.C.

Opening the Silent Serenade dates will be singer-songwriter Yola, of whom Maxwell notes, “I saw her during the pandemic on either Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert, and she was singing a country rock record. I just love what she represents: her Blackness, her broadness, her scope, her limitless sense of things.”

Maxwell will then usher in 2026 by joining up again with Lucky Daye and Kem, along with The Isley Brothers, Kelly Price and more special guests when he embarks on his third annual Urban Hang Suite Cruise. It sets sail on the Norwegian Joy from Miami (February 7-12) with stops in the Bahamas and the Dominican Republic.

During a recent tour break, Billboard caught up with an exuberant Maxwell. In the ensuing phone interview, he shared more about the upcoming residencies, the ocean cruise and the status of the long-awaited final installment in the album trilogy he launched in 2009.

It’s been eight years since your last album, 2016’s blackSUMMERS’night. When is the trilogy’s final chapter coming?

I’m going to be 100 with you, because sometimes people need to know the humanity you represent, and not just the music and not just the presentation: I had been dealing with a nerve condition. I’ve talked to so many other singers and performers who, over the course of their careers, have experienced this. So I had to take time, sit back and chill so I could deal with it and heal. It was stressful as I performed on tour, recorded [his latest single] “Simply Beautiful” and did NPR’s Tiny Desk [5.9 million views to date on YouTube]. I couldn’t really seem to get ahead of it. I’d be on stage and in absolute agony — but I knew I had to do the shows, because there was the incentive to not cancel given the people and businesses working with me behind the scenes.

If I hadn’t been going through all of that, the final album would have probably been out. But I also needed to be sure that I could get behind promoting and celebrating it in front of people. So until I was sure, I didn’t want to release the album just because of a financial or deadline reason. People don’t realize that when you’re making music, it’s about a feeling. If you’re not feeling well, the music isn’t going to feel well either. I love the craft way too much to make it a 9-to-5, a duty and not a pleasure. I know the music [for the next album] has been written from a place of great vibes and intention.

What else can fans expect at your Silent Serenade shows?

I’m more excited about what I’m trying to accomplish than what I know I’ve done already. Hopefully, these shows will catch fire and people in different places will want to see this. Essentially, I want to present the evolution of Black music as it’s represented through all the different genres that we’ve actually created in America: blues, gospel, R&B, soul, rock ‘n’ roll and jazz. I want people to understand the power of our culture specifically. To give people an experience that they’ve never had before that will hopefully bring them to a space of emotion and feeling at a time when it’s being normalized to not show anything. It’s become all about texting and emojis, but we aren’t really connecting with each other.

I don’t think people really listen to music in the way that they used to. So I want to do something that allows them to be transported into what Black music is. It comprises pretty much at least 70% of all the music that you hear in the world, period. Reggaetón is a form of hip-hop. Rock ‘n roll was invented by Little Richard. And country music is Black music too. I want to represent, show, celebrate and solidify who we are. So there will be some B-sides that people have heard, and maybe part one and part two of “’Til the Cops Come Knockin’,” which I haven’t performed since my beginning days. There will also be other surprises and covers that you wouldn’t expect.

Why do you think your cruise has become so popular, with the first two selling out?

I can’t take full credit for the people who curate it; they don’t tell me until it’s done because I have anxiety [laughs]. However, they know who I love. I’m just happy that I get to be a part of…  I wouldn’t say resurrection… but I would definitely say it’s a putting-people-in-front-of-people type of moment again. It’s in the spirit of what I mentioned before with Silent Serenade: celebrating music history I know through people I love in music, and through genres that I know we’ve touched and created. That’s what I’m focusing my actions on for all people who just love music.

So what else is still on your to-do list?

It’s actually coming true, but I can’t tell you what it is yet. But when it happens and everything comes together, including the album, it’s going to be like, “Wow, I can’t believe this is happening.” That’s all I’ve got to say, other than I’m not done yet; you ain’t seen the last of me.

Zach Bryan had some special guests along for the ride during his Sunday night (July 20) show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. Introducing his compatriots, a smiling Bryan adjusted his harmonica while saying, “One of them is Caleb Followil from Kings of Leon, one of the sweetest men I’ve ever met… And one of the greatest men to ever exist… a New Jersey native,” he added as the crowd began to get riled up and shouts of “Bruuuuuuuce!” bubbled up.

“Mr. Bruce Springsteen!” he said to wild screams as the Boss came out and gave Bryan a hug. The country singer then launched into the first verse of Springsteen’s “Atlantic City” from the rocker’s iconic 1982 Nebraska album, strumming an acoustic guitar with Springsteen coming in on the second verse while playing one of his battered electric guitars.

Followil did the honors on the third verse after marking his return to the stage two nights earlier following several months of rest after surgery to repair a shattered heel suffered while playing with his children.

It was something of an encore presentation, as Springsteen pulled a similar pop-up stunt last August during Bryan’s show in Philadelphia, where they played “Atlantic City” as well as a live version of their 2024 collaboration “Sandpaper,” which appeared on Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene album.

The Springsteen pop-in came on the third night of Bryan’s July 18-20 run at MetLife, all of which were opened by Kings of Leon and The Front Bottoms. It’s perfect timing for the two to revisit the Nebraska song, as the Springsteen biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere — which focuses on the Nebraska era — is due out in October.

Bryan celebrated the moment by posting a blurry picture of himself playing his acoustic on Instagram, with a caption featuring the “Atlantic City” lyrics “they blew up the chicken man in philly last night.” According to The Hollywood Reporter, Springsteen came out again later in the show to back Bryan on the encore, “Revival.”

While Springsteen just wrapped up European tour dates with the E Street Band, Bryan’s summer road trip will carry on next month with an August 10 show at Red Rock Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo., as well as shows in San Francisco, West Virginia, Indiana and Michigan.
