Chris Stapleton and Dua Lipa made for one of the biggest surprises of the evening at the 2024 Academy of Country Music Awards on Thursday night, when they paired up to perform a collaborative version of “Think I’m in Love With You,” a song from Stapleton’s 2023 album HIgher.

On Monday (May 20), they officially released the performance, titled “Think I’m In Love With You (with Dua Lipa) (Live From the 59th ACM Awards),” now available on all streaming platforms.

Speaking to Billboard the night of the ACMs, Dua Lipa said that “just being a massive fan of his” led to her reaching out to Stapleton about collaborating. “He’s a master of his craft, and I’ve just been a fan of his for so long, and I’ve had the opportunity to just sit down and brainstorm ideas on how we can reimagine the song for tonight, and bring something really special and unique…it’s one of those moments in my life where I’m so happy to be a musician and be creating something and doing something that feels so exciting.”

To Entertainment Tonight, Stapleton added that conversations regarding a collaboration had been in the works for a while, but they got together to rehearse the performance only a few days before the awards show.

“I think she threw herself into the mix,” Stapleton told the outlet. “We got on the phone and talked about it and worked on it a little bit. We really only kind of put together what we did like two days ago… It was kind of a whirlwind of a thing to do — but it was awesome.”

Stapleton’s Higher project won album of the year during the ACM Awards, marking his fourth win in the category. Meanwhile, Dua Lipa just released her third album, Radical Optimism, earlier this month.

Zayn‘s Room Under the Stairs tops this week’s new music poll.

Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (May 17) on Billboard, choosing the star’s latest album as their favorite new music release of the past week.

The former One Direction singer’s latest studio album brought in more than 47% of the vote, topping Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft by only 3%. In a week full of fresh tunes across pop, country and hip-hop, poll voters selected Room Under the Stairs over new music releases by Eilish, Saweetie, Luke Combs and A Boogie With da Hoodie.

Room Under the Stairs, featuring production work by Dave Cobb, is Zayn’s fourth solo album and the follow-up to 2021’s Nobody Is Listening. With a shift from pop to R&B mixed with country-rock influence, the singer’s rootsy new set is led by single “What I Am.”

“I haven’t got a name for the genre,” Zayn said in a recent interview with Zach Sang. “It’s just me,” he noted.

“There’s no specific, strategic plan behind it … It’s just expression. Whatever came out, came out,” he added.

Of today’s sound, Zayn told Nylon, “People are in search of a little bit more depth from the lyrics. In the Top 40 charts, a lot of mainstream music feels a bit wishy-washy. The songs are f—ing fire. You know what I mean? They’re catchy. They’re playing on the radio and they do their job, but people are looking for a little bit more.”

Trailing behind Room Under the Stairs on this week’s poll is Billie Eilish’s new album Hit Me Hard and Soft, with just over 44% of the vote, followed by Saweetie’s “NANi,” Luke Combs’ “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma” and A Boogie Wit da Hoodie’s Better Off Alone.

The second (and last) day of the Tecate Emblema festival in Mexico City was all about female power, with Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado and Anitta gracing the stage. The international superstars all sang and spoke in Spanish, conquering the almost 72,000 attendees that packed the Curve 4 of the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez on Saturday (May 18), according to figures from promoter Ocesa.

Other young female voices including Nicki Nicole, Lali, Aitana, Inna, Empress Of, The Aces and the Argentine duo Miranda! also won the crowd at the F1 headquarters in an evening that had a touch of nostalgia and that equally celebrated pop, funk, indie pop, soul, cumbia and reggaeton, among other rhythms.

Many attendees wore special outfits for the occasion, including bright and fluorescent garments, veils, flowers, sequins, feathers, platforms and short dresses. Neither the high temperatures in the capital city nor the environmental contingency reported by the local government dampened the desire to dance and enjoy the music to the fullest. Some couples showed off their best twerking moves during Anitta’s show, the first of her global Baile Funk Experience Tour, which arrives to the U.S. May 21 in Los Angeles.

Renowned British DJ Calvin Harris was in charge of closing the musical marathon with a set that included the song “Ocean,” his upcoming single in collaboration with Miley Cyrus, which promises to become one of the songs of the summer.

Brazilian superstar Anitta kicked off her Baile Funk Experience, a world tour that includes her first concert series in North America, this Saturday (May 18) in Mexico City.

The start of the trek took place during the third edition of the Tecate Emblema festival, held Friday and Saturday at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, the F1 venue in Mexico, where the artist was part of a stellar lineup that on its second day included Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado, Calvin Harris, Nicki Nicole, Miranda!, Aitana, Inna and Empress Of.

The show began with traditional Brazilian songs including Maria Bethânia’s “Carta de Amor,” while a group of dancers performed capoeira moves in honor of Afro-Brazilian culture. With this, they anticipated what Anitta was preparing for the audience: a total explosion of wild funk.

Produced by Live Nation, Baile Funk Experience includes stops in Latin America, the U.S. and Europe. The 20-date tour is in support of Funk Generation, the latest album from the trilingual singer, which highlights the Brazilian funk that has influenced her career.

Her next show is on May 12 in Los Angeles. She will also be visiting Miami Beach and Orlando, Florida, as well as Boston, Toronto, Chicago and New York before heading to Latin American countries including Colombia, Peru, Chile and Argentina. Stops in Europe include Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Paris, Madrid and more. For a full list of dates, click here.

“So a few months ago I got a call about a summer run of shows,” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “I’ve been content as anything with my shows in London’s Hyde Park and my residency in Vegas, so I hadn’t had any other plans. However, I was too curious not to follow up and indulge in the idea – a one off, bespoke pop-up stadium designed around whatever show I want to put on?”
