The Music Community Foundation (MCF), a national extension of the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, has launched as a country-wide nonprofit hub with the aim to become a central force in helping music-driven philanthropic efforts.

Over nearly 30 years, the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee has grown to a network of more than 120 industry partners. It has supported philanthropic endeavors by artists including Trisha Yearwood, Lainey Wilson, Kelsea Ballerini, Lauren Daigle and Chris Stapleton, with causes ranging from supporting animal nonprofits/shelters to mental health awareness initiatives. Now, with the launch of MCF — through which The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee’s music work will now flow — its reach will include all 50 states and offer coordinated support for national and international giving.

MCF will be led by music industry veteran Rondal Richardson — formerly director of entertainment philanthropy for the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee — who has been named executive director of the national organization.

The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee’s entertainment philanthropy program has long offered artists, managers and other industry members tools and infrastructure support for charitable giving. Over nearly 30 years, it has generated over $300 million in impact through more than 140 charitable funds, including $206 million in new gifts since 2018.

“For years, the music community has been the first to show up when it matters,” Richardson said in a statement. “This launch is about turning that influence into something lasting by giving artists and their teams a smarter way to build real impact. We’ve spent decades earning trust and understanding what works, and now we’re bringing that forward into the next era of music-driven philanthropy.”

The Music Community Foundation’s founding advisory committee includes executives from companies including CAA, the Grand Ole Opry, UTA, Red Light Management and WME, as well as artists Yearwood and Charlie Worsham.

“Since first partnering with the Foundation during the 2010 flood relief concerts, I’ve been proud to be part of the work they’re doing,” Yearwood said in a statement. “Through the Dottie’s Yard Fund, we’ve been able to support animal nonprofit organizations and shelters in all 50 states over the past five years. This is just one example of what’s possible when you have the right structure behind the heart, and it’s how you create meaningful, lasting change in communities everywhere.”

The founding of the MCF coincides with the launch of a new website, as well as broader calls for artists and industry members who are looking to further their charitable efforts.

Hailee Steinfeld & Josh Allen Share First Pic of Their Baby Girl in Honor of Mother’s Day: ‘Simply Obsessed’

Hailee Steinfeld is celebrating her first Mother’s Day as a mom in a heartfelt way.

To commemorate Sunday’s (May 10) holiday, Steinfeld and her husband, football star Josh Allen, gave the world its first peek at their baby girl. Steinfeld shared an Instagram carousel on Monday filled with photos of her Mother’s Day celebration. Two of the slides feature strategic photos of their baby girl — whose name the couple have yet to share — hiding her face. In the adorable first slide, the baby’s hand grasps onto Steinfeld’s finger.

“A day late but simply obsessed with this,” Steinfeld captioned her post which also featured pictures of a Mother’s Day cake, a breakfast spread with an elaborate flower bouquet and a collection of Mother’s Day cards. The final slide featured a photo of the baby in socks made to look like smiling fruit and a polkadot onesie.

Fans and friends of the Sinners actress wished Steinfeld a Happy Mother’s Day in the comments.

“Happy New Mothers Day !!!,” wrote fellow actor Jeremy Renner. “I am so very happy for you.”

“I’m so happy for you Hailee,” said another commenter.

Steinfeld and Allen married last May in a private ceremony. The couple announced their pregnancy via Stenfeild’s newsletter Beau Society before sharing the news on Instagram in December. In April, Steinfeld shared via Beauty Society that she gave birth to a baby girl. During a press conference on April 20, Allen told reporters that he was “very excited” about fatherhood.

“I do think this is going to be the best version of myself in all aspects—in my professional career and my personal life. It’s such a blessing,” Allen said before praising Steinfeld. “I’ve got an absolute rockstar of a wife that’s doing so many things right now and allowing me to be here right now and be with my teammates.”

BLACKPINK Joins These Four Groups With Multiple Women Members With Solo Hot 100 Top 10s

As previously reported, Tame Impala and JENNIE jump to No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 (dated May 16) with “Dracula.”

The song, originally released by Tame Impala solo last October while its duet version arrived in early February, becomes each act’s first Hot 100 top 10. The act’s Kevin Parker previously hit the top 15 as a cowriter and coproducer, of Dua Lipa’s “Houdini” (No. 11, 2023) and Lady Gaga’s “Perfect Illusion” (No. 15, 2016). Similarly, BLACKPINK, with JENNIE as a member, has approached the top 10, reaching No. 13 in 2020 with “Ice Cream,” with Selena Gomez.

Meanwhile, JENNIE is the second member of BLACKPINK to hit the Hot 100’s top 10 as a soloist, after ROSÉ, whose “APT.,” with Bruno Mars, climbed to No. 3 in February 2025. BLACKPINK becomes just the fifth group with at least two women members that have reached the top 10 solo (and the fourth all-women act; Fleetwood Mac is also in the club).

The elite groups with multiple women members that have hit the Hot 100’s top 10 as soloists are: BLACKPINK — JENNIE and ROSÉ; Destiny’s Child — Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland; Fifth Harmony — Camila Cabello and Normani; Fleetwood Mac — Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks; and the Go-Go’s — Belinda Carlisle and Jane Wiedlin.

With BLACKPINK reaching elite territory — and with fellow members Jisoo and LISA potentially making further history — here’s a look at each group with more than one woman member that has hit the Hot 100’s top 10 solo and each of their top 10s apart from those groups. The list spans from “Dracula” back to Nicks’ first such success in 1981.

Fans Choose Sebastian Yatra & Alonso’s Heartfelt Collab As Favorite New Latin Music of the Week

Sebastian Yatra and Augusto Alonso’s “Lo Que Me Pasa Con Vos” has topped Billboard’s new music Latin poll published on May 8.

In support of the weekly New Music Latin poll and playlist, curated with recommendations by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors, music fans voted for the Colombian and Argentine artists’ collaboration as their favorite music release of the week.

“Lo Que Me Pasa Con Vos,” which translates to “what happens to me with you,” generated a whopping 98% of the vote, beating out other releases including a streak of new albums from J Balvin & Ryan Castro (Omerta), Carín León (Muda), Codiciado (Así Es La Vida) and Chuyin (Los Locos Nunca Mueren).

Co-produced by Yatra, Andy Clay and Ariza, the heartfelt pop ballad narrates the story of a man who has an innocent crush and is finding the courage to make the first move.

“I no longer know how to hide/ What happens to me when you come close to talk/ You—even more oblivious than I am—/ Are surely the only one who won’t catch on,” Alonso—a viral rising Argentine artist—sings with his deep-yet-sugary vocals.

Further solidifying their sweet bromance, the official music video captures both Yatra and Alonso in the recording studio, at private events, and the first time they performed together onstage during Yatra’s Entre Tanta Gente Tour stop in Argentina.

Editor’s Note: The weekly New Music Latin poll results are posted if the poll generates more than 1,000 votes. See the full results below.

Tupac Shakur Estate Sued by Death Row Producer Daz Dillinger Over ‘All Eyez On Me’ Royalties

Daz Dillinger, a Death Row Records producer who collaborated on much of Tupac Shakur’s seminal final album All Eyez on Me, claims in a new lawsuit that the rap icon’s estate has stiffed him on royalties.

The Friday (May 8) complaint, obtained by Billboard, focuses on royalties from more than a dozen songs co-authored and produced by Dillinger. The list includes five tracks off All Eyez On Me, which topped the Billboard 200 in 1996 and has spent a collective 122 weeks on the chart: “Ambitionz az a Ridah,” “Skandalouz,” “Got My Mind Made Up,” “2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted” and “I Ain’t Mad at Cha.”

Fugees’ Pras Michel Surrenders to Authorities to Begin 14-Year Prison Sentence, Vows to Appeal

Dillinger (born Delmar Arnaud) alleges in the lawsuit that he last demanded royalties in 2024 and was paid $91,000 by Amaru Entertainment, the arm of Shakur’s estate that manages the late rapper’s music assets. But Dillinger says the estate did not provide any royalty statements to back up this amount — and that he believes there’s additional money still being kept from him.

“At a minimum, Amaru has failed to render statements and/or pay sums due within the applicable limitations periods and continuing to the present,” writes Dillinger’s attorney, Bret Lewis. “The precise amount owed will be shown according to proof after an accounting and discovery.”

The lawsuit asks a judge to force the Shakur estate to provide Dillinger with a full audit of profits and licenses from all the songs he helped create. Dillinger then wants to be paid his allegedly past-due royalties, plus financial damages for breach of contract.

Reached for comment on Monday (May 11), Lewis told Billboard, “It is my expectation that this matter will be amicably resolved.” A rep for Shakur’s estate declined to comment on the lawsuit.

Here’s Why Tupac Shakur Murder Suspect Wants His Charges Dismissed By Supreme Court

This is far from the first time Dillinger has been involved in legal action over his time at Death Row, where he produced for other artists and was half of the hip-hop duo Tha Dogg Pound with fellow rapper Kurupt. Dillinger has brought various lawsuits over contractual payments through the years against Death Row and its former chief, Suge Knight, plus Sony/ATV Music Publishing and BMG Rights Management.

In 2001, Shakur’s mother, Afeni Shakur, sued Dillinger for allegedly holding onto and threatening to disseminate unreleased Tupac music without the estate’s consent. That case was settled out of court in 2002.

More recently, Dillinger threatened to sue Snoop Dogg, his cousin, over song ownership and royalties from their years of work together, writing on social media last year, “I sued Suge back in the day. Should I do the same to cuz?” Snoop responded with a warning of his own: “In a minute I’ma f— you up, cuz, not physically, but business-wise.”

Lizzo Brings the Flute (and Height Jokes) to ‘The Roast of Kevin Hart’

In a recent interview with Elle, Eilish responded to the question “what’s one hill you’d die on?” by saying “Y’all not gonna like me for this one. Eating meat is inherently wrong. Two things cannot coincide: ‘I love animals … and I eat meat.’ You can’t do both. You can eat meat, go for it. You can love animals. But you can’t do both.” Amid backlash to that comment, she followed up by saying “stay f–king mad at ME … i really don’t give a goddamn f–k” while sharing clips of animals suffering in overcrowded enclosures and experiencing violence by their handlers.

Now, longtime animal rights activist Moby is praising Eilish and her brother FINNEAS for consistently using their platforms to speak out on social issues.

In a video posted to Instagram on Monday (May 11), the legendary producer said, “So last week Billie Eilish found herself in the middle of a media storm, and Billie Eilish and Finneas their mom Maggie used to be regulars at my restaurant Little Pine here in Los Angeles… And honestly I think they’re amazing. They’re smart and funny and creative.

“And what’s so impressive in watching Billie handle herself as this huge public figure is that she uses her platform not just for self promotion but to address important issues, even if it runs the risk of alienating her fans,” Moby continued. “It’s so impressive watching someone use social media and use media to draw attention to incredibly important issues and to really challenge people. So if I had children, I’d say be more like Billie.”

In the comments section, Eilish and FINNEAS’ mom Maggie Baird, who is herself a well-established social activist focused heavily on food, wrote, “Thank you for all you do. And still miss Little Pine.” This latter comment refers to the entirely plant-based restaurant Moby opened in Los Angeles’ Silver Lake neighborhood that opened in 2015 and closed in late 2022.

Moby recently donated all of the money he made playing Coachella 2026 to a trio of animal rights organizations.

Tove Lo Announces New Album ‘Estrus’: ‘It’s Primal, Contradicting Emotional Chaos’

We don’t want to keep this singer off our minds.

Billboard Hot 100 hit “Habits (Stay High)” singer Tove Lo announced the release of her sixth studio album Estrus on Monday (May 11). Posting the album artwork and tracklist to Instagram, the Swedish artist shared that the upcoming LP drops on Sept. 18. Lead single “I’m Your Girl Right?” comes out on Wednesday.

In the announcement post’s caption, Lo explained the meaning behind the album’s title.

“Estrus is an animal in heat. It’s primal, contradicting emotional chaos,” the singer wrote. “It’s my mind and my body wanting different things, wanting everything.”

Anyone looking for life lessons or advice from Lo will not find it on this record. “There’s no good advice on this album… just a lot of feelings, no solutions,” she said.

The album artwork features a picture of the “Talking Body” singer crawling toward an altar with candles and a black cat on it. The word “Estrus” is written across her long hair. Estrus will have 13 songs on it. In the comments of her own Instagram post, Lo says the album is the product of “4 years of period blood sweat and tears.” The tracklist shared in the second image of the post features imagery including a scorpion and the symbol for Scorpio, the singer’s Zodiac sign.

Estrus is the follow-up to Tove Lo’s 2024 EP Heat, a collaboration with producer SG Lewis. The upcoming LP is the singer’s first studio album since 2022’s Dirt Femme, her first record under her own independent label Pretty Swede Records.
