Miami doesn’t exactly do quiet—especially during Billboard Latin Music Week, when the city comes alive with music, industry conversations and nonstop events. But amid the excitement, Lincoln offered attendees something unexpected: a moment to slow down and recharge.

Throughout the week at Faena Forum, the luxury automotive brand brought its signature approach to comfort, design and rejuvenation to life through immersive experiences that offered a glimpse into the thoughtful details behind Lincoln’s latest innovations.

Between back-to-back panels, a little downtime went a long way. Lincoln’s Rejuvenation Pod invited attendees to step away from the bustle and settle into a moment of calm. Inspired by the Lincoln Rejuvenate feature available in the Nautilus and Navigator, the experience offered a taste of relaxation designed to be enjoyed behind the wheel.

Just a few steps away, the Lincoln Navigator turned heads in a specialty exterior color, Frosted Fig. Guests explored the SUV’s luxurious interior, complete with an expansive panoramic sunroof and a sweeping digital display across the dashboard. And because Miami’s sunshine rarely takes a day off, Lincoln offered ice pops to help guests beat the heat.

Inside Faena Forum, the experience continued with opportunities to indulge the senses. A lush floral installation became a picture-perfect backdrop for attendees capturing memories from the week, while a nearby scent discovery station invited guests to explore the fragrance options available through the Digital Scent feature. Together, the installations offered a reminder that luxury isn’t always about what catches the eye and sometimes, it’s about how a space makes you feel.

The Lincoln experience extended beyond Faena Forum on Monday evening, as Billboard’s Latin Power Players celebration brought together some of the industry’s most influential names. Select honorees enjoyed courtesy rides in Lincoln vehicles to the awards ceremony, arriving in style for a night celebrating those shaping Latin music’s global impact.

Across a week defined by music, movement and milestone moments, Lincoln made the spaces in between feel just as memorable. From discovering new scents to exploring luxurious interiors and finding a few minutes to recharge, each experience reflected the pleasure of being present.

And in a city that rarely slows its rhythm, Lincoln made a compelling case for enjoying the pause.

Druski is looking to follow in the footsteps of Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Harry Styles and more hosts who pulled double duty as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live. There’s only one problem: The Strokes were already booked as this weekend’s musical guest.

In new promos for Saturday Night Live, the first-time host — surrounded by cast member Sarah Sherman and The Strokes — proudly announces, “Hi, I’m Druski, and I’ll be the host and musical guest on SNL this week!”

“Druski, we already have a musical guest — The Strokes,” Sherman replies, to which the band’s Fabrizio Moretti just waves at the viral comedian and says, “Hi!”

“Can they do this?” Druski asks before ripping a totally sick (and obviously pantomimed) electric guitar solo.

“Wow, that’s really great!” Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas tells Druski. “But yes, yes we can.”

The promos begin with Druski singing a song and playing air guitar and then asking, “That’s you guys, right?” When Moretti politely shakes his head, “No,” Sherman urges the host: “Just do the promo, Druski!”

Watch the full promos below:

Druski is hosting Saturday Night Live for the first time this weekend, while The Strokes will be the musical guest for a fourth time. They made their SNL debut in January 2002 and also performed in 2006 and 2011. The band is promoting their most recently released album, July’s Reality Awaits, which debuted at No. 13 on the all-genre Billboard 200 and at No. 5 on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums chart.

Saturday Night Live airs at 11:30 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT on NBC and streams on Peacock. (See all the options to watch SNL here.)

Amy Winehouse’s Grammy-winning Back to Black album impacts the top 10 of four Billboard charts, following its 20th-anniversary reissue. The album re-enters the top 10 of Indie Store Album Sales (No. 3), Vinyl Albums (No. 4), Top Album Sales (No. 7) and Top R&B Albums (No. 7) (all charts dated Nov. 7). The project also jumps back onto the overall all-genre Billboard 200 at No. 42.

Back to Black peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in 2008, following its big night at that year’s Grammy Awards, where Winehouse won record of the year, song of the year, best female pop vocal performance (for the album’s “Rehab”), best new artist and best pop vocal album (for Back to Black).

For its 20th anniversary, the album was reissued in a variety of options on Oct. 23, including an expanded version with previously unreleased b-sides, demos and a live concert.

Back to Black marked the second and final studio album from Winehouse before her death in 2011, and spun off the Billboard Hot 100-charting singles “You Know I’m No Good” and the No. 9 hit “Rehab.”

In the tracking week ending Oct. 29, Back to Black earned 16,000 equivalent album units (up 185%) in the United States, according to Luminate. Of that figure, 11,000 was in pure album sales (up 885%), with the remainder driven by streaming activity and track sales. (All versions of the album, old and new, are combined for tracking and charting purposes.)

Back to Black is among seven debuts or reentries in the top 10 of the latest Top Album Sales chart. The highest debut of the week belongs to Anderson .Paak and Cordae’s collaborative project Heavy Is the Crown (No. 2), while My Chemical Romance’s The Black Parade jumps 29-1 following its own 20th anniversary reissue.

Pusha T isn’t the biggest fan of biters.

During a conversation with The Wall Street Journal about his daily routine, the Virginia rapper had some thoughts on the rap landscape in 2026 and feels like the game lacks originality. “It started off with a lot more individuality. Everybody wanted to be different,” he explained. “They wanted to be great, and they wanted to set themselves apart. You can’t look like me, you can’t do what I do.”

He added, “Now people try to do different versions of what’s hot. Everyone can just be good and be the same. I feel like people don’t mind being like other people these days.”

Push, who’s found himself in a rap battle or two during his career, was also asked about his thoughts on Jay-Z telling GQ that he thinks maybe rap battles should be avoided these days because stan culture and social media can blow things out of proportion, while using the Drake and Kendrick fallout as an example. He played coy on the recent battle Jigga was referencing and essentially disagreed with the Brooklyn rapper’s point-of-view, but did say that things should be kept on wax.

“I don’t see a world in which artists are just going to get along at all times. This is a very competitive sport,” he said. “I don’t what instances Jay-Z was talking about — I’m sure that things have gotten out of hand, but they never need to go that far. As long as it’s music, it’s fine. Anything outside of that realm, it’s overboard.”

Elsewhere in the interview, he revealed that he and Pharrell often talk at 5:30 a.m. and treat their studio time like jobs, usually working a 12-hour shift starting at 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Diana Ross will head to Australia next year for her first concert in these parts in more than two decades.

The Queen of Motown will headline the Sydney Summertime concert series on Friday, March 5, for an exclusive, one-night-only concert, presented on the eve of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade.

The superstar singer will bring Diana Ross Freedom in Motion to Centennial Park for the one-off spot, reads a statement from Black Peach Touring, the concerts promoter launched last year by Jessica Ducrou, co-founder and former CEO of Secret Sounds Group.

“Diana Ross is an absolute icon and to have her choose Sydney Summertime for her only Australian show, one night only in Centennial Park, on the eve of Mardi Gras is exactly the kind of unforgettable moment we created this series for,” comment Ducrou and Elise Huntley, co-founders and directors of Black Peach, in a statement. “It’s going to be something very special.”

Ross is the third international headliner confirmed for Sydney Summertime’s inaugural 2027 season, following The Strokes and Kings of Leon. Joining the legendary U.S. artist on stage will be British electronic duo Groove Armada for a DJ set, with additional performers to be announced shortly.

The all-ages concert series is supported by Destination NSW, the lead agency for the visitor economy in the NSW government.

Ross, who boasts a string of hits as leader of the Supremes and as a solo artist, is “one of the most iconic performers in music history, with a career spanning decades and a catalogue of hits loved by generations of fans,” comments New South Wales minister for jobs and tourism Steve Kamper.

“To have an international superstar of her caliber headline at Sydney Summertime for an Australian-exclusive performance is a major coup for NSW,” adds Kamper. “Events like this are a powerful driver of tourism. They bring more visitors to our state, generating economic benefits for local businesses and jobs, and reinforce NSW’s reputation as a destination for world-class live music and entertainment.”

The dynamic diva last performed in Australia back in November 2006 for concerts in Melbourne (Regent Theatre and Flemington Racecourse) and Sydney (Capitol Theatre).

Presales for her Sydney Summertime concert open at 9am local time next Monday, Nov. 9. Visit blackpeach.co/dianaross for more.

Eminem‘s “Not Afraid,” the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper from the rapper’s 2010 Recovery album, soundtracks one of Michigan Senate candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed’s latest campaign clips. The democrat released the video online early Tuesday morning (Nov. 3) as Election DAy kicked off.

“Michigan. It’s time. It’s up to us to show the country what’s possible,” El-Sayed wrote Tuesday in a social media post that featured the campaign video featuring the Eminem hit. “The world is watching.”

Eminem has not commented on El-Sayed’s usage of his song or publicly endorsed a candidate in the 2026 midterm election; The Detroit News reports he was not contacted by the campaign.

In 2024, Eminem made an appearance in Detroit in support of Kamala Harris, and in 2020, “Lose Yourself” was featured in a Joe Biden ad.

The rapper recently guested on track by fellow Detroit native Kid Rock, “Heal My Faith,” on which he raps about their years-long friendship and calls for unity across party and religious lines; Kid Rock has, of course, been outspoken about aligning with Donald Trump. Following the song’s release, Eminem noted, “Not about choosing sides, just choosing to make music with my old friend. Praying for all of us.”

As for El-Sayed’s current campaign, video footage posted online shows Common performed for the democratic candidate at a rally in Detroit on Monday night.

Michigan native Stevie Wonder also showed support for El-Sayed, getting on camera to voice his choice, as seen in a clip released on Election Day. “There is so much on the line this election,” Wonder says in the video. “We cannot be distracted … Go vote for Dr. Abdul El-Sayed for Senate, Jocelyn Benson for governor, and democrats down the ticket.”

Another artist who’s definitely in El-Sayed’s corner is Bruce Springsteen, who lent his endorsement on Monday.

“Dr. El-Sayed is a fighter for our American Constitution,” Springsteen wrote in a post on Instagram. “He’s a fighter for our American Democracy, and he’s a fighter against the corrupt, lawless, and anti-American leadership currently in the White House.”

It’s been a close competition in Michigan between El-Sayed and his Republican opponent, Mike Rogers, in their bid to take over Democrat Gary Peters’ Senate seat. The race hadn’t been called at the time of publication Tuesday evening.

She added, “I really hope everyone will enjoy hearing it when they see the film over the holidays.”

JISOO says the process of creating a song for an animated film has been “deeply meaningful.”

The Angry Birds Movie 3 , directed by John Rice, has an all-star voice cast in place, including Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Emma Myers, Rachel Bloom, Walker Scobell, Danny McBride, Marcello Hernández, Tim Robinson, Anna Cathcart, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Nikki Glaser, MrBeast, Salish Matter, Psalm West, Sam Richardson and James Austin Johnson, Lily James and Keke Palmer.

The premise of the latest installment in the Angry Birds franchise: “This holiday season, one angry bird will face his greatest challenge yet, surviving fatherhood… while saving the world!”

JISOO recently dropped the single “Click,” which arrived in September, followed by “Addicted” in October.
