From career milestones to new music releases to major announcements and those little important moments, Billboard editors highlight uplifting moments in Latin music. Here’s what happened in the Latin music world this week.

CUNY Celebrates Mexican-American Graduates with Peso Pluma as Guest Speaker

The City University of New York (CUNY) held its first-ever systemwide Mexican-American graduation ceremony on Saturday (May 2) at the Lehman College Center for the Performing Arts in the Bronx, with special guest and class padrino Peso Pluma. Organized by the CUNY Mexican Studies Institute with student input and led by Dr. Lizbeth de la Cruz Santana, the event celebrated the achievements and cultural identity of nearly 200 graduates from 14 CUNY institutions.

“This graduation marked a historic milestone as the first CUNY-wide commencement dedicated to honoring Mexican-American students and their families,” Dr. De La Cruz Santana tells Billboard Español. “Inviting Peso Pluma reflected a broader effort to celebrate the contributions of Mexican and Mexican-American communities across New York City and the United States.”

Dr. De La Cruz Santana also underscored the event’s grounding in the struggle for educational equity: “For decades, Mexican-American students faced segregation and unequal schooling in states like California, Texas, and Arizona. Landmark moments like Mendez v. Westminster and the East Los Angeles Walkouts demanded access, dignity, and representation.”

The Mexican superstar’s surprise appearance moved students and their families. “I couldn’t believe it when I saw him walk out!,” shared graduate Rachelle Campos-Suarez. “To witness such a historic moment for our community, our culture, and future generations was very emotional and unforgettable.”

“This celebration did not only honor the graduates but our parents and many others that helped and accompanied us along the way,” added alumni and student organizer Michelle Cruz. “It is also serves as a statement for spaces like the higher education systems that says ‘We belong here too.’”

Venezuelan Singer Opens His Own Art Exhibition in Venice

Venezuelan multidisciplinary artist Eduardo Galán — featured as a musician in our On the Radar Latin column in October 2023 — reached a new milestone this week, this time as a visual artist, by inaugurating his own art exhibition in Venice, Italy. Titled The Circle of Love, the show opened its doors on May 6 at the Kokonton Gallery, coinciding with the preview of the 61st Venice Art Biennale.

“This body of work explores the relationship between time, transformation, and that which endures. Through materials such as cement, Japanese paper, and 24k gold, I sought to create works that feel both fragile and eternal at the same time — deeply inspired by the textures, scars, and beauty of Venice,” Galán tells Billboard Español. “For me, this exhibition represents something deeply personal: the moment when music, painting, and life finally began to speak the same language.”

The show will remain open until May 24. — SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS

Puerto Rico’s Coca-Cola Music Hall Goes Phone-Free, Letting Fans Unplug

Coca-Cola Music Hall made history as the first venue in Puerto Rico to implement a phone-free system during comedian Marcello Hernández’s performance last month. The concept allows guests to fully immerse themselves in the live experience by eliminating cell phone usage in the main hall. The system was utilized again on Friday (May 8) for actor and comedian Chris Tucker’s show.

“This type of experience is designed to allow the audience to fully enjoy the show, keeping their attention on the stage and ensuring that the content is exclusively for those who purchased tickets to the event,” said Arleene Pérez, general manager of the Coca-Cola Music Hall, in a press release.

Attendees are required to secure their phones and smart devices in special locked pouches upon entry and can only access them in designated areas. Despite initial concerns, the rollout during Hernández’s show ran smoothly. “The audience quickly adapted to the system, and we had no issues,” added Pérez. “On the first night, the turnaround time for attendees to receive their phones was 16 minutes, and on the second night it was 13 minutes.”

Warner Records was the label honoree at the 2026 Grammy Hall of Fame Gala, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif. on Friday (May 9). Accepting the award, Aaron Bay-Schuck, co-chairman and CEO of the Warner Records Group, recalled a lunch he had, shortly before starting the job, with legendary Warner executive Mo Ostin.

“I asked him how he so successfully kept Warner as the most exciting label in the world decade after decade, hoping he’d give me a cheat code, but instead he said, ‘There is no secret. Create the environment where your artists feel supported and protected, give them the space to experiment, to succeed and to fail, and create a culture at the company where people feel inspired, collaborative and proud to represent.’ So, to receive this honor tonight feels like confirmation that we have indeed done that, and I can’t tell you how proud and gratifying that is for me and our Warner family.”

This is the third year in a row that the Grammy Hall of Fame event has included a label tribute. Atlantic Records and Republic Records were the label honorees at the two previous galas. Warner artists Teddy Swims and Josh Groban each performed two songs as part of the salute.

Bay-Schuck opened his remarks by thanking his partner at the label, Tom Corson, co-chairman & COO of Warner Records Group. “Tom my brother. It’s been the greatest gift being on this journey with you as my partner.”

Bay-Schuck spoke eloquently about taking over one of the industry’s most respected labels. “When we took over the leadership of Warner Records in 2018 we knew we needed to reposition the company for the future, but we wanted first to approach that by acknowledging the past. After all, this is the home to Prince, Madonna, Jimi Hendrix, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Neil Young and so many more. These superstars were fearless, unapologetically themselves. They took risks. They dared to be different, and they stood for something. Whatever shape this new era of Warner Records was going to take, we knew one thing had to remain true. In a time where data and algorithms were sending people in the direction of quick wins and fleeting moments, we were going to demonstrate that talent, quality and vision still mattered the most, that the patience to wait for greatness, rather than settling for good, was the right strategy, and that artist development should still be a top priority, and a value that we as a major label must provide.”

Corson, who spoke before Bay-Schuck, also honored the label’s heritage. “This award belongs the entire Warner family, everyone at Warner Records Nashville, Warner UK, and across the Warner Music Group worldwide, as well as generations of executives, creatives and artists who built this label long, long before us. We’re standing on the shoulders of giants tonight. We truly appreciate it. Most importantly, thank you to our artists. Everything begins and ends with them, and we’re especially proud to have two extraordinary representatives of our label here tonight.”

Corson, who was an executive at IRS Records, A&M, Capitol, Columbia, J Records, Arista and the RCA Music Group before joining Warner, said it was always his dream to work for Warner.  “I always wanted to work at the label. It took me a long time to get hired there, and I’m glad I did. It’s been amazing. But it’s a team sport, right? And to all our team over there, give yourselves a hand.”

Swims and Groban both paid tribute to the label during their performances. Groban thanked the label for taking a chance on “a shy kid with a big voice” that other labels didn’t know what to do with.

Swims performed “Mister Know It All” and his Billboard Hot 100-topping breakthrough smash “Lose Control.” Groban performed two songs from his album Cinematic, which was released that same day (May 8): “Brucia La Terra,” a Sicilian-language rendition of “Love Theme From The Godfather” (sometimes known as “Speak Softly, Love”), and “Stand by Me,” featured in the film of the same name. Take 6 joined him to sing the latter song, which closed out the event.

Dua Lipa crashed Tame Impala‘s London show on Thursday night, joining Kevin Parker onstage at the O2 Arena for an unannounced two-song set that sent the crowd into a frenzy.

Lipa appeared mid-set with no introduction during Tame Impala’s performance of “After Thought,” their 2025 collaboration, walking onstage and immediately launching into the song’s chorus. When the track ended, Parker officially welcomed his “good friend” to the stage.

“Let’s play a song that we made together!” he announced, before the pair broke into Lipa’s 2024 hit “Houdini” — the funk-inspired single Parker produced for her third studio album Radical Optimism, on which Parker worked on several tracks as producer.

Thursday’s appearance is the latest in a series of mutual stage invasions between the two artists. In 2024, Lipa brought Parker out for her headlining set at Glastonbury Festival, where the pair performed “Houdini” and Tame Impala’s “The Less I Know the Better.”

During her 2025 Radical Optimism tour, Lipa also invited Parker to join her onstage in Melbourne, Australia. At her Sydney show at Qudos Bank Arena, Lipa told the crowd: “I made most of Radical Optimism with this person and he’s one of my favourite artists. He’s inspired me a lot. I manifested and dreamt about working with him one day and then I managed to make one of my favourite albums with him.”

Lipa and Parker first began working together in mid-2022. Lipa has said she “was so nervous because I’m just such a fan of Kevin’s” when the pair first started collaborating.

“Houdini” peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 upon its release in 2024 and served as the lead single from Radical Optimism, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. The album earned Lipa a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album. Tame Impala are currently on a world tour in support of their 2023 album The Slow Rush (Collector’s Edition).
