PPL has been appointed to collect neighboring rights for John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
Announced Tuesday (Oct. 15), the deal will see the U.K.-based collective management organization (CMO) collect broadcast and public performance royalties globally on sound recordings where Lennon or Ono are listed as performers in markets where such rights exist.

“PPL has shown they are the leaders in advocating for neighboring rights globally,” said the Lennon estate in a statement. “We have the utmost respect for the team and look forward to working with them.”
Lennon released 11 solo albums as a performer, including 1970’s John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band alongside Ono.
As a performer, songwriter or co-writer, Lennon landed 25 No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 both as a member of The Beatles and as a solo artist. He also landed three No. 1 albums as a solo artist on the Billboard 200.
In 2023, The Beatles released their “final” song, “Now and Then,” which was completed with the aid of machine-learning-assisted audio restoration. The song landed at No. 7 on the Hot 100 and at No. 1 on the U.K.’s Official Singles Charts.
During her career, Ono has secured 13 No. 1 singles on Billboard‘s Dance Club Songs chart and released 14 solo albums.
PPL, which is celebrating its 90th anniversary in 2024, has 111 agreements in place with other CMOs for royalty collection, according to a press release.
Peter Leathem, CEO of PPL, said in a statement: “It is an honor to be appointed by the John Lennon Estate for neighboring rights collections. Our team works hard to ensure no stone is left unturned in the collection of neighboring rights royalties around the world. It is a privilege to advocate for and collect public performance and broadcast rights globally for such a revered catalog of recorded music.”

The founders of indie label group [PIAS] have announced they are selling the remaining shares they hold in the company to Universal Music Group (UMG), making the music giant the firm’s majority shareholder.
In an announcement on Tuesday (Oct. 15), Kenny Gates said he and his [PIAS] co-founder Michel Lambot were selling their shares to UMG, which acquired a 49% stake in the company in 2022, to “allow us to offer a truly global distribution and services platform to the independent music community.”

Universal Music Group Buys 49% Stake in Indie Label Group [PIAS]
Financial terms were not revealed for the deal, which expands upon a strategic global partnership between the two companies that began in 2021. When UMG acquired the 49% stake in [PIAS] for an undisclosed sum the following year, Gates and Lambot retained majority control of the company.
Ownership of [PIAS] now appears to be fully in the hands of UMG, although representatives of the European indie label group and UMG declined to expand upon the information contained in Tuesday’s press release.
Details that have been confirmed as part of the new arrangement include the merger of Virgin Music Group and [PIAS]’s services division [Integral], which provides physical and digital distribution services to more than 100 indie label partners including ATO, Beggars Group and Secretly Group.
The newly combined teams will provide “independent entrepreneurs with world class services and access to a bespoke, stand-alone international distribution network,” said [PIAS]. Reps for the firm and UMG declined to comment when asked if the merger would result in any job losses.
The [PIAS] Label Group, which includes the indie labels Play It Again Sam, harmonia mundi, Spinefarm, Source and partner imprints such as ATO, Heavenly, Mute and Transgressive, will remain completely autonomous, said the company. Artists signed to or distributed by those labels include Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Kneecap, Sofiane Pamart, Sleep Token, Arlo Parks and Black Pumas.

“I am selling my shares not my soul,” said Gates, who will remain CEO of [PIAS] and sit on the Virgin Music Group main board and advisory group, in a statement.
“Since agreeing [to] a strategic alliance with UMG in 2021 we have found them to be supportive and engaged partners who have added real value to our offering,” continued Gates, describing the decision to relinquish the founders’ remaining shareholdings in [PIAS] as a “pragmatic one.”
The company’s existing leadership team will continue to steer day-to-day operations “and nothing will change culturally or commercially for our existing clients and partners,” said Gates, who co-founded [PIAS] with Lambot in Brussels, Belgium, in 1983.
Lambot said that despite initially having “some concerns” about partnering with UMG in 2021, the experience has surpassed his expectations.
“Our relationship to date has been fruitful, convivial and everything we hoped it would it be,” he said. “This new phase, which will see us working even closer together promises to be an exciting new era for [PIAS], our staff, our partners and the artists we represent.”
“I’ve known Kenny and Michel for decades, beginning in the 80s when we were all signing bands from emerging scenes in Europe,” added Lucian Grainge, chairman/CEO of UMG, in a statement.
“Since that time, Kenny and Michel have built [PIAS] into a company that stands for authenticity and the best in independent music,” Grainge added. “And it is those qualities that are not only important to me personally but that also make [PIAS] a perfect fit for UMG’s entrepreneurial and creative culture.”
“We are delighted by all that’s been accomplished over the past three years together, and we look forward to working with Kenny and Michel and their entire team, including their family of artists and labels, to further build [PIAS]’s legacy,” said UMG executive vp/CFO/president of operations Boyd Muir. “Their experience and insights have significantly helped to grow this dynamic area of our business. Completing the acquisition of [PIAS] Label Group and [Integral] reinforces our best-in-class label services operations and enhances our ability to support the independent artist and label community globally.”

Tick tock on the clock! The Halloween party isn’t going to stop just yet, but the Christmas season is coming early to Spotify. The music streamer is set to release five new Spotify Singles at the stroke of midnight local time on Tuesday (Oct. 15), including one by Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200 chart-topper Kesha.
This year’s annual singles collection — which arrives a little earlier than usual this time — will feature four other artists and their covers of holiday tunes. The featured musicians and their yuletide songs are:
“Holiday Road” by Kesha
“Driving Home for Christmas” by Dasha
“River” by Max Richter
“Run Rudolph Run” by Mark Ambor
“Emmanuel” by Miel San Marcos
“As you’ll hopefully hear, each single really showcases the personality and style of each artist — often reinventing holiday classics in an entirely new way,” Talia Kraines, Spotify’s senior editor of pop, tells Billboard.
“With ‘Holiday Road,’ Kesha has taken this really fun ’80s song – which wasn’t originally a holiday song – and brought it to the modern day. We just knew she would sound amazing singing it, and she does. Her vocals make me think of The Go-Gos or The Bangles here. It feels like a monumental year for Kesha, and we’re thrilled to be a part of it – she’s reclaiming her joy and owning her own voice,” she adds of the Grammy nominated artist. “It also seemed fitting to have Kesha make a holiday song with us because her music actually hits a high each year on Spotify during the holiday season. Tracks like ‘Tik Tok’ and ‘Timber’ have come to be known as New Year’s and celebration anthems.”
Kesha for Spotify Singles
As for “Driving Home for Christmas,” Kraines notes that it’s “huge in the U.K. and Europe” if not the U.S. “We saw this as a great opportunity to give this holiday song a whole new audience in America while sharing a new version for countries where the song is already beloved,” she says of Dasha’s contribution.
Last year’s Spotify Singles’ holiday collection was announced during mid November, usually when the music streamer decks the speakers with holiday tunes. It featured Laufey’s interpretation of the classic “Winter Wonderland,” which peaked at No. 2 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 and No. 80 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 charts; Kirk Franklin’s gospel take on “Joy to the World”; Ezra Collective’s cover of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen”; and Musica Mexicana artist Panter Bélico offered his original tune “Un Vaquero En Navidad.”
Previous Spotify Singles for its Holiday Collection include Kurt Vile’s take of Bob Dylan’s version of holiday classic “Must Be Santa,” IVE’s holiday mix of its own “After LIKE” and more. The overall Holiday Collection playlist on Spotify also includes contributions from Miley Cyrus, DMX, Demi Lovato, Sam Smith, Liam Payne, John Legend, Fifth Harmony, Camilo, Black Pumas and many, many more.

Unity, camaraderie and constant collaboration among Argentine artists have become a fundamental contribution to their success and globalization.
On Monday (Oct. 14) at Billboard Latin Music Week 2024, Argentine rapper and singer La Joaqui and Mexican star Kenia Os discussed the importance of friendship and support among colleagues within the industry, particularly for women.

Best Quotes From ‘Power Players: The OGs’ Panel at Billboard Latin Music Week 2024
La Joaqui and Kenia Os, who have released two collaborations together this year — “Kitty” and “San Turrona RMX” — participated in the “Entre Amigas” panel, moderated by Flor Mauro, editorial content director of Billboard Argentina.
“We are in an industry where, especially if you are a woman, media wants you to treat each other as competition — ‘Such female artist surpassed another female artist’ — when both surpassed 10 male artists,” La Joaqui said. “However, many women are making noise.”
“It brought me a lot of relief when I collaborated with Kenia,” she added, mentioning that she was already her “No. 1 fan” when she wrote to her hoping to meet, and the Mexican artist replied that she was in the studio recording an album and immediately invited her to collaborate in it. “She opened the doors of her kingdom to me, let me enter this world so new to me. I was very afraid of these kinds of connections, but […] it was a genuine connection, that’s why I think we did so well.”
or Kenia, who also declared herself a fan of La Joaqui, collaborating with another woman was something refreshing because it doesn’t happen often among female artists in Mexico, where “the media pits women against each other a lot,” she said.
“My first collaboration was with La Joaqui […] and from day one it was a beautiful connection. It was incredible,” she said, noting that it not only gave her entry into a difficult market for Mexicans like Argentina, but led to new opportunities to collaborate, including with Mexican artists like Peso Pluma, with whom she recorded the hit “Tommy & Pamela.”
For both, authenticity is a priority in their careers. “It’s super important for artists who are starting out,” said Kenia Os, recalling that it took her a while to find her own voice because she started young in the business, going from teenager to adulthood in the public eye and being influenced by other people’s opinions. La Joaqui, who started as a rapper, said she found her authentic place in RKT, a subgenre of cumbia villera characterized by its influences from cumbia villera, reggaeton, and electronic music.
To sum up the importance of friendship in music, La Joaqui said it is “crucial” in a world where artists are constantly mistreated on social media, and called for “more friends and less business.”
“We move in an environment where there is impunity,” said the Argentine star. “Where it’s normal for people to tweet: ‘Your music is crap… I hope you die.’ It’s no longer an opinion, it’s abuse. And you are simply getting up and doing something you like.”
“There are times you pretend so much madness that you become mad and you need a friend to simply ask you, ‘How are you? Are you okay? How do you feel?’” she continued. “Most of the time I’m not okay, I cry once a week, and having friends in the industry has allowed me to cry in private. I recommend making real friendships to make songs. That integrated feeling is a sure hit.”
Over the past 35 years, Latin Music Week has become the one, steady foundation of Latin music in this country, becoming the single most important — and biggest — gathering of Latin artists and industry executives in the world. Initially named Latin Music Seminar, sponsored by Billboard, the event traces back to 1990, where it kicked off as a one-day event in Miami featuring a two-artist showcase and awards show.
Latin Music Week coincides with the 2024 Billboard Latin Music Awards set to air at 9 p.m. ET on Sunday, Oct. 20, on Telemundo. It will simultaneously be available on Universo, Peacock and the Telemundo app, and in Latin America and the Caribbean through Telemundo Internacional.

PartyNextDoor gave an update about his upcoming joint album with his label boss Drake and he sounds pretty confident.
During a recent appearance on OVO’s The Fry Yiy Show on SiriusXM, the singer says he and Drake have been hard at work while also placing lofty expectations on the already highly-anticipated project. “I have had an insane week,” he said. “You guys know what’s coming for you. Party and Drake have a classic. We trying to put the finishing touches on it, so… Yeah, it’s a jam-packed month for me filled with the thing that I love to do the most, besides being the world’s greatest dad.”
Drake made the announcement to a surprised crowd earlier this summer during his set at the Toronto stop of Party’s Sorry, I’m Outside Tour. “So, you get the summer over with, you do what you need to do,” he told the crowd. “I know all you girls are outside. When it gets a little chilly, PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be waiting right there for you.” Party then confirmed the project’s existence when he told social media personality Awaiz Punjani, “The one we doing right now – all 15 we doing right now,” after being asked what his favorite song was.
Drake recently went on a rant seemingly addressing the beef he found himself in earlier this year which may explain his need to work on this upcoming album with a longtime collaborator and friend. “My real friends are definitely in the building,” he said while on stage during Tyrone Edwards’ Nostalgia Party in Toronto a couple weeks ago. “But let me tell you that you’re going to come to a point in life where people you thought were friends, people you thought were close to you switch up.”
There still isn’t a release date yet and no singles have dropped, but October isn’t over and there’s still a couple months left in the year.

Idina Menzel has experienced more than her fair share of people mispronouncing her name — but she’s drawing the line when it comes to Kamala Harris.
With Election Day less than a month away, the Broadway alum issued a video PSA via Instagram on Sunday demonstrating the exact way to say the VP’s moniker. “You have to get the pronunciation of Kamala Harris correct,” she says in the clip, standing outside while addressing the camera. “It’s getting really exhausting. It’s Kamala, like a comma. ‘Comma-la.’”

“I tend to be an expert on pronunciations of names, since mine is always screwed up, as you know,” Menzel continued, before referencing one of the most viral moments of her career: when John Travolta butchered her name while introducing her performance at the 2014 Oscars.
“And not just as ‘Adele Dazeem,’” the Frozen star says. “People call me Indiana, ‘Eye-dina’ … I was just at an event in Oklahoma, and they called me ‘Ay-deena Menzul.’”
Though Menzel says people are constantly mispronouncing her name, Travolta’s flub is definitely the most memorable. Though he’d later say that a last-second change to the teleprompter was to blame, he mistakenly set up her performance of “Let It Go” by saying, “Please welcome the wickedly talented, one and only Adele Dazeem.”

At the time, Menzel took it in stride and, at the next year’s ceremony, got the Grease actor back by referring to him as “Glom Gazingo” as the two presented onstage. Earlier this year, the Rent performer celebrated the viral moment’s 10-year anniversary with a funny TikTok, telling the camera: “Hey, Adele Dazeem! It’s Idina Menzel … I just wanted to say happy birthday. Sending you so much love and positive energy.”
When it comes to Harris, however, Menzel isn’t joking around. At the end of her PSA, the star adds, “I think that the vice president and soon-to-be president should have her name pronounced correctly.”

Live from New York, Ariana Grande took over hosting duties for Saturday Night Live embracing her pink-loving character Glinda from the upcoming Wicked movie adaptation. From her opening monologue to her final sendoff, the 31-year-old made sure to incorporate the bewitching shade into all of her looks –including her makeup.
In a rare look at her off-stage moments, the “Yes, And?” singer took to TikTok on Saturday (Oct. 12) to quickly share her exact lip look for the comedy sketch show, which included makeup from her beauty brand r.e.m. Beauty.
“@arianagrande shows you her galinda-fied lip combo for @Saturday Night Live – SNL 🩰🫧” the caption for the video says.
Grande quickly takes you through her step-by-step routine for creating a lip look worthy of hosting SNL using only products from the celeb-founded beauty brand. The three step process used a lip stain marker, pink lipstick and lip gloss and on a freshly cleaned lip, you can see Grande start out by outlining her mouth with the lip marker. Her trick is to add a line down the center of her bottom lip “cause it adds a cute little pout there,” she says in the video.
From there, you just use your finger and gently smudge the lip liner, then follow up with a layer of pink glittery lipstick from r.e.m. Beauty’s Wicked collab and top your lips with a ballet slipper pink gloss.
Below, shop all the ingredients you need for Grande’s exact lip look.
Line and define your lips using r.e.m. Beauty’s lip stain marker that’s compact and quick-drying. Uncapped, the lip marker has a rounded tip to easily outline or shade your lips using a lightweight formula that won’t leave your lips feeling chapped.
You’ll only be able to snag Glinda’s pink lipstick in the exclusive Wicked Makeup Set — and with everything included, it’s worth the splurge. In addition to the “creamy” lipstick, you’ll also receive a glittery liquid eyeshadow, multipurpose blush stick and smudge-proof eyeliner that’ll cast a spell on anyone who catches a peek of your makeup.
Layer your lips with the Essential Drip Glossy Balm for subtle color and practically instant hydration. Besides bringing a hint of shade to your lips, the lip gloss acts as a moisturizing balm that uses hydration locking ingredients like hyaluronic acid and super-fruit antioxidants.
