Last fall, Hilary Duff made headlines when she signed a record deal with Atlantic – clearly teeing up even bigger news to come. Sure enough, Duff soon announced her sixth studio album, Luck… or Something, out today (Friday, Feb. 20). 

But that’s far from all; in anticipation of the album, Duff embarked on a mini tour, the Small Rooms, Big Nerves trek, that included stops in London, New York and Los Angeles. At each stop, the swell of demand grew not only for the new music she performed but also for bigger rooms – and many more dates. Duff heard fans loud and clear, and recently announced a world tour, with stops at arenas including Madison Square Garden in New York and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.

Prior to Luck, Duff last released an album in 2015 on RCA, marking her first release after departing Hollywood Records, on which she released four albums. And save for her Christmas debut LP, Santa Claus Lane, her previous five albums reached the top five on the Billboard 200, with Metamorphosis and Most Wanted both peaking at No. 1.

Duff worked on the album alongside her husband, Grammy Award-winning songwriter/producer Matthew Koma. As she shared in a statement announcing the project: “I am often asked how I still have my head on straight after growing up in this industry. The album title is my way of answering that question. It’s luck, but there’s also a lot of weight in the ‘…or something.’”

And across the album, the songs that dive deepest into uncovering that “something” are where the pop icon truly shines.

Below is Billboard’s ranking of every song on Luck…or Something.

Gambling can bring out the highest of highs and lowest of lows, but Baby Keem is back to roll the dice. Keem returned on Friday (Feb. 20) with his Ca$ino album, his first project since 2021’s The Melodic Blue.

Ca$ino boasts 12 tracks in total, which find Keem joining forces with his cousin Kendrick LamarToo Short, Momo Boys and Che Ecru for collaborations.

Keem ended the nearly five-year drought with an album announcement for Ca$ino on Feb. 10, which sent his fanbase into a frenzy. “Took your time bro this better be a classic,” one person commented.

The Las Vegas native has released an accompanying multi-part Ca$ino documentary on YouTube, which featured Keem in the studio with Kendrick working on “Good Flirts.”

“Walking in the party, I don’t feel nobody/ What the f—k,” K. Dot raps. “Is it fake, is it love, probably/ I smell something.”

Part one features Keem’s family members and Lamar describing the 25-year-old’s upbringing. “I understand the hardships before he was born. Knowing his mom, that’s my first cousin,” Lamar said. “I already knew what she was going through, just the history of our family in general. We don’t call ourselves the hillbillies for nothing.”

Kendrick continued: “Section 8, welfare … This is a story of a warfare environment and a warfare psychologically trying to change our generational curses.”

Baby Keem released his The Melodic Blue debut album in September 2021 and the LP peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200. Keem also released a deluxe for thealbum in October 2022 featuring assists from Lil Uzi Vert and PinkPantheress.

Since her debut EP Pistol Made of Roses, the Georgia-born Megan Moroney has established herself as an adept musical purveyor of shrewd examinations of life, love and everything in between, fashioning a brand that blends a beguiling, sparkly feminism with fearless gumption and self-assured perspectives. She followed with her debut major label album Lucky, while her sophomore set Am I Okay? earned Moroney her highest debut to date on the all-genre Billboard 200, debuting at No. 9.

On Friday (Feb. 20), she returns with her third major label studio album, Cloud 9.

Her new album title feels appropriate, as in the span of the past 18 months, Moroney’s ascending career has only continued gaining rapid momentum. She won the CMA’s new artist of the year accolade, earned her second RIAA-certified gold album with Am I Okay?, was honored during Billboard‘s Women in Music Awards, spearheaded her headlining Am I Okay Tour?, and is gearing up for her 49-date The Cloud 9 Tour, a headlining international outing that include stops at major arenas.

On Cloud 9, she continues conveying her strength in distilling love, loss, disappointment and heartbreak into sharply crafted, witty lyrics, infused with honesty and vulnerability that cut to the bone. She takes aim at the contradictory, unfair expectations of women in the music industry on “Liars & Tigers & Bears.” Elsewhere, she takes the wise insights she’s gained on life, friendships and love, using it to encourage and advise the next generation of women on “Beautiful Things.” Instead of internalizing the pain that comes with dealing with lovers’ character inadequacies, she knows her worth and turns her unfiltered writing pen to calling out their shortcomings on songs such as “Who Hurt You?” and “6 Months Later.”

Moroney co-produced Cloud 9 with writer/producer/artist Kristian Bush, known for his work as part of Sugarland, as well as writer-producer Luke Laird, leaning on a blend of country, pop and acoustic stylings. Moroney wrote the album with top-shelf co-writers including Jessi Alexander, Jessie Jo Dillon, ERNEST, Amy Allen, David Mescon, Rob Hatch, Ben Williams and Mackenzie Carpenter.

Billboard has ranked every track on Moroney’s Cloud 9, counting down to the album’s most standout track.

G Flip nets the official song for the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup, the 12-strong regional soccer tournament which Australia hosts next month.

The Sydney-based singer, songwriter and multiple-instrumentalist this week releases the tourney’s anthem, a cover of the ‘80s hit “All Fired Up,” initially written and released by Australian rock band Rattling Sabres, and later a global smash for Pat Benatar.

A portion of the royalties from the song will be donated to Women Onside, an organization dedicated to promoting gender equality in Australian football for almost a decade, ensuring that its impact reaches well beyond the pitch.

“I’ve been a lifelong fan and supporter of women’s sports and always want to get involved wherever I can. Getting the opportunity to create an anthem for the AFC Women’s Asian Cup is really exciting,” comments G Flip in a statement.  

“Representation in all forms is so important so I hope moments like the AFC Women’s Asian Cup inspires young people to follow their dreams and for everyone to get around women’s sports.”

Paramount+ is the exclusive streaming home for every match of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026, which kicks off with the home team, the Matildas, facing off with the Philippines in Perth on March 1. The Matildas will hope to turn their home advantage into a second win, after claiming the title in 2010, and by maintaining the momentum of their march into the semi-finals of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, also played out on Australian soil.

Formerly known as the AFC Women’s Championship, the quadrennial cup has been dominated by defending champions China, winners on nine occasions.

Hosted by Thalia, Clarissa Molina, and Nadia Ferreira, this year’s Premio Lo Nuestro was packed with unforgettable moments. While awards were presented — most of them prior to the ceremony — the night was largely focused on showcasing incredible live acts.

This year, Bad Bunny and Carín León were the top winners, with six and five awards each, respectively. Artists such as Karol G, Maluma, and Yuridia also received multiple awards.

Five artists received special awards for their contributions to music and legacy: Arcángel was recognized with the Urban Icon Award; Juanes with the Lifetime Achievement Award; Los Bukis with the Musical Legacy Award; Manolo Díaz with the Visionary Award; and Paloma San Basilio with the Excellence Award.

The Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 soundtrack scores big on the Billboard 200 albums chart, as the companion set to the hit role-playing video game debuts at No. 29 on the list dated Feb. 21. Since the Billboard 200 began publishing on a regular weekly basis in March of 1956, only three game soundtracks have reached the top 50 of the chart: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, BTS World (No. 26 in 2019) and Halo 4 (No. 50 in 2012).

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was released in April 2025 and went on to win game of the year at The Game Awards last December. It won a total of nine awards at the ceremony, the most wins for a game in a single night since the awards show launched in 2014. The game’s soundtrack was composed by Lorien Testard, features vocals from Alice Duport-Percier and was released via Sandfall Interactive/Laced Records.

The soundtrack was originally released in April 2025 as a 154-track complete edition via streaming services and for purchase as a digital download. Then, on Feb. 6, 2026, that complete edition arrived on CD (along with bonus tracks), as well as on vinyl (carrying a selection of tracks from the complete soundtrack). For tracking and charting purposes, the streaming, download and CD editions of the album are combined together, while the vinyl edition charts separately.

The No. 29 debut on the Billboard 200 is the vinyl edition of the album, which sold 24,000 copies — the single largest sales week for a game soundtrack on vinyl in the modern era (since Luminate began electronically tracking sales in 1991). The vinyl edition of the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 soundtrack also debuts on Classical Albums (No. 1), Classical Crossover Albums (No. 1), Soundtracks (No. 2), Vinyl Albums (No. 4), Top Album Sales (No. 5), Top Current Album Sales (No. 4) and Independent Albums (No. 6).

As for the separately-charting complete version of the soundtrack (the CD/download/streaming edition), it debuts on Top Album Sales (No. 18), Top Current Album Sales (No. 18) and Independent Albums (No. 44). It also holds at No. 2 on both Classical Albums (after previously spending 21 weeks at No. 1) and on Classical Crossover Albums (also having spent 21 weeks at No. 1). It also hits a new peak on the Soundtracks chart, climbing 21-7.

Bad Bunny, Carín León and Karol G were the top winners of the Premio Lo Nuestro 2026. But they weren’t the only honorees who shone during the ceremony.

As announced in recent weeks, for the first time in its 38-year history, Premio Lo Nuestro presented five special awards on Thursday (Feb. 19) to honor great figures in Latin music whose contributions, vision, and legacy have transcended generations.

Colombian rocker Juanes — who on Wednesday confirmed his ambitious 50-plus-date Juanes World Tour 2026 — received the Premio Lo Nuestro Lifetime Achievement Award for having “built a career marked by authenticity, constant evolution, and a deep connection to his roots,” according to a press release.

Meanwhile, veteran Spanish singer Paloma San Basilio was recognized with the Premio Lo Nuestro Award for Excellence for a career spanning over 50 years, during which she “has left a profound mark on music, theater, and Ibero-American culture.”

Puerto Rican reggaeton star Arcángel received the Premio Lo Nuestro Urban Icon Award as “one of the key figures in the history and evolution of Latin urban music.”

The revered grupera band Los Bukis accepted the Premio Lo Nuestro Musical Legacy Award for a catalog that “has accompanied entire generations and forms an essential part of the emotional heritage of Latin music.”

And Spanish composer, performer and producer Manolo Díaz was feted with the Premio Lo Nuestro Visionary Award as a “key figure behind countless careers, songs, and moments that have marked the history of Latin music.”

Broadcast live from Miami on Univision, UNIMÁS, and Galavisión, and available for streaming on ViX in the U.S. and most Latin American countries, the 2026 Premio Lo Nuestro ceremony was hosted by Thalia, Clarissa Molina, and Nadia Ferreira and featured performances by superstars like Romeo Santos and Prince Royce, Thalia, Maria Becerra, and Cristian Castro.
