Kim Kardashian Says ‘Kanye & I Will Always Be Family’ Amid Divorce

A lot has been made of the social-media diatribes that Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) has gone on over the past few months — especially when he posts his unfiltered thoughts about estranged wife Kim Kardashian, how she’s raising their four children, or moving on with her new boyfriend Pete Davidson. But as Kardashian told ABC News’ Robin Roberts for an interview that aired Wednesday night (April 6), she’ll never tell him to stay quiet.

“You wanna take the high road, and sometimes it’s hard, but I think that at the end of the day everyone has their own way of communicating,” Kardashian says in ABC’s prime-time The Kardashians interview special, which also includes sit-downs with her mom Kris Jenner and sisters Khloe and Kourtney. “I’ve always been a champion of him speaking his truth, and I would always want that.”

She’s also keeping the lines of communication open with her kids — 8-year-old North, 6-year-old Saint, 4-year-old Chicago and 2-year-old Psalm — about their parents separating and the public chaos that surrounds the family.

“I’m really open and honest with them,” she says. “You know, the younger ones don’t understand much, but as far as with my two older ones, they know what’s going on, and you have to just really be there for them, no matter what. Even in this crazy life that we live — you have to just have a really open dialogue with your children.

“Kanye and I have had conversations,” she adds. “We have to talk daily for the kids. I hate that it had to play out like that, but when it comes to family, Kanye and I will always be family. At the end of the day, I just want my kids to be happy and healthy and think the world of their dad — and they do.”

In The Kardashians special, Kourtney Kardashian also opens about how her relationship with Travis Barker went from friendship to engagement (and now a license-free wedding).

Spotify’s Discovery Mode Under Scrutiny by Congress (Again)

Members of Congress are once again taking aim at Spotify’s controversial Discovery Mode feature, which allows artists and labels to receive a lower royalty rate on select tracks in exchange for higher priority in the platform’s algorithms.

In a letter obtained by Billboard, dated March 29, 2022 and addressed to Spotify founder, CEO and chairman Daniel Ek, Reps. Yvette D. Clarke (D-NY), Judy Chu (D-CA) and Tony Cardenas (D-CA) – co-chairs of the Congressional Caucus on Multicultural Media – express concerns that Discovery Mode “lacks transparency” for both artists and consumers and ask the company to publish “on a monthly basis the name of every track enrolled in the program” and the agreed-upon discounted royalty rate for each. Variety first reported on the letter.

“Choosing to accept reduced royalty payments is a serious risk for musicians, who would only benefit if Discovery Mode yields more total streams for an artist across their entire catalogue, not just the track covered by the program,” the letter reads. “And if two competing artists both enroll their newest track in the program, any benefit could be cancelled out, meaning that the only profit goes to your company’s bottom line.”

Without transparency, the letter continues, Spotify is “asking artists to make a blind choice, and it represents a classic prisoner’s dilemma,” adding that Discovery mode has potentially harmful potential for “artists of diverse backgrounds, who often struggle to access capital.”

For consumers, the letter also questions whether Discovery Mode – which Spotify says is still in the testing phase – amounts to “misleading native advertising,” stating that the program “seems identical” to promotional social media posts or sponsored search results that fail to alert users to the fact that they’re ads.

“We understand that relevant FTC guidelines disclosures of paid content to be ‘clear and conspicuous,’” the letter continues. “Among the factors considered under this standard are whether disclosure is prominent and unavoidable, and nothing we see on your website or any interface you’re your service meets those criteria. Why does Spotify not comply with these federal guidelines, put in place to protect consumers?”

In response to the letter, a Spotify spokesperson sent the following statement to Billboard: “Artist and label teams have told Spotify for years that they want more agency in reaching new listeners and driving meaningful connections on our platform – Discovery Mode, in its early phase, delivers just that. We have been transparent about the use of Discovery Mode and the commercial considerations associated with it to our users and partners by publicly discussing this test in many forums and describing its use within the user experience. On the whole, the response to Discovery Mode from our listeners and partners has been incredibly positive and we will continue to be transparent about how it is working.”

First unveiled by Spotify in November 2020, Discovery Mode previously attracted concern from Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Hank Johnson Jr. (D-GA), who in June 2021 sent a letter to Ek voicing worries that the feature “may set in motion a ‘race to the bottom’ in which artists and labels feel compelled to accept lower royalties as a necessary way to break through an extremely crowded and competitive music environment.”

In a written response to that initial letter, Spotify head of global affairs and chief legal officer Horacio Gutierrez claimed  Discovery Mode “has an overwhelmingly beneficial effect” and said the program had grown participating artists’ number of listeners by over 40%, “with artists in the earlier stages of their careers seeing the greatest success.” He added that because Discovery Mode doesn’t require an upfront cost, it allows artists “at any stage in their careers access to the same promotional opportunities as established artists with cash marketing budgets at their disposal.”

Regarding the program’s transparency, Gutierrez noted that Spotify provides participating artists with “detailed metrics showing Discovery Mode’s impact” for their music “across the Spotify platform, including on numbers of streams, listeners, track saves, and playlist adds.”

In further efforts to tout the alleged benefits of Discovery Mode, Spotify has published successful case studies of artists who took advantage of the program, including Natalie Perez, mehro, ODIE and Terrace Martin. Several distributors, including Believe CEO Denis Ladegaillerie, Distrokid CEO Philip Kaplan and Tunecore CEO Andreea Gleeson, have also released statements in support of the program.

By contrast, music industry critics of Discovery Mode have said the program “tilts what had been a level playing field for artists” and “misleads listeners,” with others citing Spotify’s alleged “pattern of devaluing music” in calling the program into question.

Here Are the Lyrics to Nicki Minaj & Fivio Foreign’s ‘We Go Up’

Nicki Minaj dropped her fourth song in less than two months with “We Go Up” featuring Fivio Foreign.

“We Go Up” is the latest in a rapid fire series of singles from the “Chun-Li” artist, whose track “Blick Blick” with Coi Leray arrived just last week. Before that came “Do We Have a Problem?” and then “Bussin,” both of which feature Lil Baby.

Daddy Yankee’s ‘Legendaddy’ Debuts at No. 1 on Top Latin Albums Chart, Top 10 on Billboard 200

Daddy Yankee bags his seventh No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart as Legendaddy debuts at No. 1 on the April 9-dated ranking. The 19-track set, released March 25 via El Cartel/Republic, stands out as his first album in over 10 years and is set to be a farewell celebration of his 32-year musical career.

Streaming powers the majority of the Legendaddy’s first-week activity. Just under 27,000 units stem from streaming equivalent album units, 2,000 comprise traditional album sales, while the remaining units derive from track equivalent album units.

The Top Latin Albums chart ranks the most popular Latin albums of the week in the U.S. based on multimetric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album.

Largest Sales Week for a Latin Album in 2022: Legendaddy starts with 29,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending March 31, according to Luminate, formerly MRC Data. That’s the largest week in terms of units earned this year for any Latin album, ahead of Bad Bunny’s YHLQMDLG which logged 22,000 units on the April 2-dated survey.

Best Opening Week Among Latin Albums in 2022: With 29,000 in its opening week, Legendaddy boats the best starting week in terms of overall units among all Latin albums which have debuted in 2022. It bests Rosalía’s Motomami which generated 17,000 units in its debut week (April 2-dated ranking) and the 14,000 units of Bad Bunny’s Anniversary Trilogy (Jan. 15-dated recap).

Second-Largest Streaming Week in Over a Year: Of Legendaddy’s 29,000 equivalent album units, SEA units comprise 27,000 units –equaling 38.50 million on-demand streams from the set’s tracks. That’s the second-largest streaming week since Bad Bunny’s El Último Tour Del Mundo logged 30,000 SEA units (a total of 45.1 million on-demand streams of the set’s songs) on the chart dated Jan. 16, 2020.

Legendaddy is Daddy Yankee’s first No. 1 on Top Latin Albums in almost a decade. He last ruled with the two-week champ Prestige in 2012. In between he posted one top 10: King Daddy (No. 7 high) in Nov. 2013.

The set concurrently opens at No. 8 on Billboard 200, the Puerto Rican’s highest charting album there. He’s charted one other top 10, the No. 9-peaking El Cartel: The Big Boss in 2007.

As Legendaddy arrives, 12 songs from the album debut on Hot Latin Songs, which blends airplay, streaming data, and digital sales, led by “X Última Vez,” with Bad Bunny at No. 6. The song traces its start to 6.51 million U.S. streams earned in the week ending March 31. It also benefits from 700 sales downloads, which prompts a No. 11 debut on Latin Digital Song Sales

Here is a summary of Legendaddy’s 12 songs on Hot Latin Songs:

No. 6, “X Última Vez,” with Bad Bunny
No. 13, “Remix”
No. 19, “Rumbatón”
No. 21, “Agua”
No. 23, “Hot,” with Pitbull
No. 24, “Para Siempre,” with Sech
No. 28, “Pasatiempo,” with Myke Towers
No. 32, “Zona del Perreo,” with Natti Natasha & Becky G
No. 33, “Bombón,” El Alfa & Lil Jon
No. 38, “Uno Quitao y Otro Puesto”
No. 39, “Campeón”
No. 45, “El Abusador del Abusador”
