It was a great day to be a New Yorker on Monday (May 25), and even better one if you were Cardi B. Cardi took to her IG Stories to celebrate her three wins at the 2026 American Music Awards and celebrated the New York Knicks clinching the team’s first NBA Finals berth since ’99.

After racking up a few more trophies thanks to the Bardi Gang, Cardi promised her fans that she’ll attend and perform at the 2027 AMAs no matter what she has going on next year.

Cardi ended up taking home best female rapper, best hip-hop album (Am I the Drama?) and best hip-hop song (“ErrTime”).

“AMAs! Thank you so much for giving me three awards tonight. Best female rapper, best hip-hop song and best hip-hop song,” she said of the fan-voted honors in her Monday video. “Thank you so much and I promise you, not only am I gonna attend next year, I’m gonna perform.”

Cardi B continued: “That’s word to everything, I don’t give a f–k what I’m doing. Thank you so much. Please send my award to my house. Don’t send to my mom house because she be keeping my awards … What a great day: the Knicks is going to the motherf–king finals, I won three award shows! What’s next?”

Am I the Drama? finally arrived in September and topped the Billboard 200 with 200,000 total album units earned, according to Luminate. As for “ErrTime,” Jeezy hopped on the official remix, while the LP standout reached No. 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the Rhythmic Airplay chart.

The Bronx native also posted footage Monday of watching the Knicks game with her engineer, who was fittingly rocking a Jalen Brunson T-shirt, while in the studio.

The Knicks ended up smashing the Cleveland Cavaliers in game four of the Eastern Conference Finals by 37 points to complete the sweep and advance to the franchise’s first NBA Finals in the 21st century.

She later posted a clip of the Empire State Building lit up in orange and blue for the Knicks. “Fire! We ain’t f–king around,” the 33-year-old said in awe.

Perhaps Cardi B could be in the building as part of celebrity row when the NBA Finals scene returns to Madison Square Garden during games three and four of the series in June. She previously pulled up to a Knicks playoff game last May, which saw her make her first public appearance with NFL star Stefon Diggs when the NYK faced the Boston Celtics.

THE BIG STORY: Nobody likes filing their taxes. But for globe-trotting music stars on cross-border tours, it’s an even bigger problem — and one that can lead to massive legal headaches.

Case in point: In a ruling last week, a Spanish court acquitted Colombian superstar Shakira of tax fraud and ordered the return of 60 million euros ($69 million) that had been levied for the 2011 income tax year. Spain claimed she was a legal resident, but she proved that she had spent just 163 days in the country between stops on her Sale el Sol world tour.

Shakira’s ordeal highlights the immense complexity of taxes for international stars, as Billboard’s Rachel Scharf reported last week. They need to closely track what days they spend where to figure out where to claim residency, as well as the taxes in each country they visit on tour, as a portion of concert revenue must be paid to local authorities.

“I advise my clients to maintain a calendar where they document every single day where they are, just for this reason,” says one music attorney who handles tax structuring for many touring musicians.

For all the ins-and-outs — including the complicated IRS process for taking a cut from international stars — go read Rachel’s full story here.

Drake returns with another blockbuster week on Billboard’s charts (dated May 30), following the release of his three new albums: ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR.

The three projects, all released concurrently May 15, debut at Nos. 1, 2 and 3, respectively, on the Billboard 200, making Drake the first artist to hold the top three simultaneously in the chart’s 70-year history. ICEMAN opens atop the chart with 463,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States, according to Luminate, while HABIBTI launches with 114,000 and MAID OF HONOUR begins with 110,000.

ICEMAN posts the second-biggest week of 2026 for an album, after only BTS’ ARIRANG, which opened with 641,000 units in April. The set is Drake’s 15th career Billboard 200 No. 1, as he passes Jay-Z and ties Taylor Swift for the most among solo artists. Only The Beatles have more overall, with 19.

Drake’s dominance also extends to the Billboard Hot 100, where he places 42 total songs on this week’s chart — every chart-eligible track from the three albums — setting a new record for the most concurrent entries in a single week. He surpasses the previous mark of 37 set by Morgan Wallen on the May 31, 2025-dated list when his album I’m the Problem made is chart debut. The country star previously set the record with 36 songs on March 18, 2023, thanks to his LP One Thing at a Time. Prior to that, however, Drake held the record for five years, as he charted 27 songs from his Scorpion album on the July 14, 2018-dated ranking.

Here’s a rundown of Drake’s 42 entries on this week’s Hot 100:

  • No. 1, “Janice STFU”

  • No. 93, “Stuck”

Of Drake’s 42 Hot 100 entries this week, 40 debut (also, thus, a single-week record). He extends his career totals, and ups multiple all-time records, to 47 top five hits, 90 top 10s, 154 top 20s, 241 top 40s and 402 overall entries.

Drake also becomes the first artist to reach 400 total Hot 100 entries in the survey’s 67-year history. He also remains the only act with at least 300 career appearances, as Swift ranks second with 276.

Here’s a look at the artists with the most career Hot 100 hits:

  • 402, Drake
  • 276, Taylor Swift
  • 228, Future
  • 207, Glee cast
  • 195, Lil Wayne
  • 177, Ye (formerly Kanye West)
  • 159, Lil Baby
  • 149, Nicki Minaj
  • 133, Travis Scott
  • 125, Chris Brown

Thanks to his massive week, Drake also rebounds to No. 1 on the Billboard Artist 100 chart for a 39th total week atop the chart, the second-most in the ranking’s 12-year history, after Swift (137 weeks).

Every new Drake release seems to bring another piece of Billboard chart history.

Since first appearing on the Billboard Hot 100 dated May 23, 2009, with his breakthrough hit “Best I Ever Had” (which peaked at No. 2), Drake has shattered record after record and reached unprecedented chart heights.

In 2015, he became just the fourth artist in history to earn 100 career Hot 100 entries. He joined the 200-hit club in 2019, then became the first (and still only) artist to reach 300 entries in 2023. In 2026, he extended that record even further, becoming the only artist ever to amass 400 career Hot 100 entries.

Among Drake’s many other Hot 100 achievements are the records for the most top two, top three, top five, top 10, top 20 and top 40 hits, along with the most No. 1 debuts in the chart’s history.

He also holds the record for the most No. 1 Hot 100 hits among solo male artists, with 14. Among all artists, he’s tied with Rihanna and Taylor Swift for the third-most No. 1s overall, after only the Beatles (20) and Mariah Carey (19).

As Drake continues adding to his resume, here’s a look at every major Hot 100 record the superstar has broken throughout his career — and the milestones he hasn’t reached (yet) — through the chart dated May 30, 2026.

It’s also worth noting that the rise of streaming has drastically reshaped how artists accumulate Hot 100 records. In recent years, blockbuster album releases have allowed acts to chart multiple songs simultaneously, a stark contrast to earlier eras when artists typically promoted one radio single at a time in a largely physical-sales-driven marketplace. That shift in consumption helps explain why modern artists have been able to rapidly increase their career totals for Hot 100 entries and other chart milestones.

Drake’s “Janice STFU” debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart. The song is from his album ICEMAN — as the set and his HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR blast in at Nos. 1, 2 and 3, respectively, on the Billboard 200, where he becomes the first artist to hold the top three simultaneously in the chart’s 70-year history. Also as previously reported, “Janice STFU” launches at No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard Hot 100.

Drake debuts eight songs in the Global 200’s top 10, all from ICEMAN, upping his total to a record 45 top 10s since the chart began in September 2020.

Meanwhile, BTS’ “Swim” scores a seventh week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart.

“Janice STFU” drew 69.4 million streams and sold 3,000 worldwide in its first week (May 15-21), according to Luminate.

Here is a rundown of Drake’s eight new Global 200 top 10s, all from ICEMAN and all of which debut, along with their worldwide streaming totals:

  • No. 1, “Janice STFU” (69.4 million)
  • No. 2, “Ran to Atlanta,” feat. Future & Molly Santana (63.6 million)
  • No. 3, “Whisper My Name” (59.5 million)
  • No. 4, “National Treasures” (57.9 million)
  • No. 5, “Shabang” (54 million)
  • No. 6, “Make Them Cry” (53.8 million)
  • No. 7, “Dust” (49.6 million)
  • No. 9, “2 Hard 4 the Radio” (45.3 million)

Drake joins BTS (April 4) and Taylor Swift (May 4, 2024) in claiming the Global 200’s top seven titles in a single week. Drake also holds eight of the top 10 for a second time, following the debut week for his album Certified Lover Boy (Sept. 18, 2021). BTS and Swift have each taken a record nine of the top 10, the former once and the latter four times.

Drake achieves his fourth Global 200 No. 1 (and fourth No. 1 debut), as “Janice STFU” follows “IDGAF,” featuring Yeat (Oct. 21, 2023); “Rich Flex,” with 21 Savage (Nov. 19, 2022); and “What’s Next” (March 20, 2021).

Plus, now up to 45 Global 200 top 10s, Drake surpasses Swift (42) for the most. Bad Bunny ranks third with 25. Future pushes his top 10 total to nine, while Santana notches her first.

“Swim” extends its No. 1 run on Global Excl. U.S. with 45.3 million streams (down 3%) and 2,000 sold (down 15%) outside the U.S.

Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” rises 3-2 for a new Global Excl. U.S. best; Justin Bieber’s “Beauty and a Beat” drops 2-3 after two weeks at No. 1 earlier this month; and Tame Impala and JENNIE’s “Dracula” is steady at No. 4.

Drake debuts five songs in the Global Excl. U.S. top 10: “Janice STFU” (No. 5), “National Treasures” (No. 7), “Ran to Atlanta” (No. 8), “Whisper My Name” (No. 9) and “Make Them Cry” (No. 10). He has tallied 11 top 10s on the chart; Future, three; and Santana, now one.

Fat Joe is a courtside staple at Madison Square Garden, but was not afforded that same celebrity treatment away from home.

After flying to Cleveland for game four against the Cavaliers, the Bronx native claimed that Cavs team officials revoked the courtside seats he purchased for Monday night’s (May 25) Eastern Conference Finals game, which saw the Knicks complete the sweep and advance to the team’s first NBA Finals since 1999.

Joe made the revelation that the Cavaliers weren’t allowing Knicks fans to take up courtside seats at Rocket Arena during a Monday afternoon appearance on ESPN’s NBA Today.

“I wanna say to Cleveland, I have bad news. We had bought some courtside seats to the game and then, once they found out it was superfan Fat Joe, they was like, ‘I can’t sit courtside. New York Knicks fans can’t sit courtside,’” he explained.

Fat Joe and other superfans who made the trip to the Midwest — including Timothée Chalamet, Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan and Ben Stiller — were eventually accommodated to the second and third rows, which Fat Joe has referred to as the “Joe Budden seats” in the past, instead of being stuck with no tickets at all.

“Playoff courtside seating is governed by a specific agreement that prohibits the resale or transfer of tickets without approval,” a Cavaliers spokesperson told The New York Post. “All courtside ticket holders are required to comply with the terms of the single-game playoff agreement.”

Billboard has also reached out to the Cavs for comment.

Even without his usual courtside view, It was a celebratory night for Fat Joe, as the Knicks throttled the Cavs to complete the 4-0 sweep in a 37-point beatdown 130-93, extending the team’s playoff win-streak to 11 games.

Joey Crack even posted a photo as part of the Knicks postgame celebration, as he shared a photo to IG with Knicks chairman/owner James Dolan while holding the Eastern Conference Finals MVP trophy (the Larry Bird Trophy), which was awarded to Knicks superstar Jalen Brunson.

The Knicks and Fat Joe will have some time off to figure out their travel plans as they await the winner of the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Finals.

Game one of the NBA Finals is slated for next Wednesday (June 3), and the Knicks will be on the road, so don’t be surprised to see Fat Joe and other members of celebrity row make the trip to OKC or San Antonio. The Knicks will look to end their half-century championship drought, as the franchise’s last title came in 1973.

Shinedown furthers its record for the most No. 1s in Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart history, scoring its 23rd on the May 30 tally with “Safe and Sound.”

The ruler marks the band’s third in a row and second this year, following “Searchlight” in March and “Killing Fields” last September.

Shinedown first led Mainstream Rock Airplay, which began in 1981, with the 12-week No. 1 “Save Me” in 2005-06.

Most No. 1s, Mainstream Rock Airplay:

  • 23, Shinedown
  • 20, Three Days Grace
  • 17, Five Finger Death Punch
  • 16, Foo Fighters
  • 14, Metallica
  • 13, Disturbed
  • 13, Godsmack
  • 13, Linkin Park
  • 13, Papa Roach
  • 13, Van Halen
  • 13, Volbeat

Of the 11 artists listed above, seven appear on the latest ranking. Following Shinedown, Three Days Grace’s “Don’t Wanna Go Home Tonight” rises to No. 10, becoming the band’s 28th top 10. Papa Roach’s “Wake Up Calling” is No. 15 after a three-week reign, and Five Finger Death Punch’s “Eye of the Storm” is the week’s top debut at No. 18. Rounding out the group: Volbeat’s “Demonic Depression” is No. 27 after a week at No. 1; Foo Fighters’ “Your Favorite Toy” places at No. 31, also after a week at No. 1; and Godsmack’s “When Legends Rise (Live at Mohegan Sun)” rounds out the group at No. 37.

“Safe and Sound” is the fourth song from Eight, Shinedown’s upcoming eighth studio album (May 29), to reach No. 1 on Mainstream Rock Airplay, with “Dance, Kid, Dance” last year joining the aforementioned three leaders.

Concurrently, “Safe and Sound” leaps 9-6 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart with 3.5 million audience impressions in the week ending May 21, up 9%, according to Luminate. The song is also bubbling under Alternative Airplay.

The American Music Awards celebrated some of the year’s best music Monday night (May 25) through a star-packed lineup of performances — including KATSEYE, BTS and more — in addition to the awards. And now that the 2026 ceremony is in the books, Billboard wants to know which showcase was your favorite.

The Bangtan Boys opened the ceremony, contributing a pre-filmed performance of “Hooligan” from their ongoing Arirang World Tour that set the energetic vibe for the rest of the night. Later, the members of BTS appeared in person at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas to present SZA with best female R&B artist and accept artist of the year as well as song of the summer for “SWIM.”

New artist of the year winner KATSEYE also earned top marks — at least according to Billboard, which published its ranking of all the night’s performances shortly after the show concluded — with a colorful, choreography-packed rendition of new single “Pinky Up.” The girl group’s slot came amid other performances from Sombr, who sang his hit “Homewrecker”; Teyana Taylor, who treated the audience to “All of Your Heart”; Maluma, who played “Tu Recuerdo”; Riley Green, who crooned “Worst Way”; and Twenty One Pilots, who brought “Drag Path” to the stage.

Plus, Karol G was mesmerizing as she performed “Ivonny Bonita” moments before accepting the rare international artist of excellence honor and best Latin album for Tropicoqueta, while a number of other iconic acts demonstrated the power of nostalgia. The Pussycat Dolls, for instance, dazzled with a medley of 2000s hits “Buttons,” ”When I Grow Up” and ”Don’t Cha” (also sprinkling in a bit of new single “Club Song”) with Busta Rhymes and Spliff, while Hootie & the Blowfish charmed the crowd with 1990s classics “Hold My Hand” and “Only Wanna Be With You,” and New Kids on the Block threw it back to the ’80s with “You Got It (The Right Stuff).” Keith Urban tapped into the ’70s for a cover of Seals and Crofts’ “Summer Breeze,” and Billy Idol celebrated winning this year’s lifetime achievement award with a show-closing medley of “Eyes Without a Face” and ”Dancing With Myself.”

But which of those diverse performances was the best of the entire night? That’s up to you.

Drake claims one of the most triumphant weeks in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, led by his “Janice STFU” debuting at No. 1.

The song marks Drake’s 14th career Hot 100 leader — breaking him out of a tie with Michael Jackson for the most among solo males over the chart’s 67-year archives.

Plus, Drake adds nine new Hot 100 top 10s — extending his record total career count to 90.

Drake additionally charts a new single-week record 42 songs on the Hot 100 — surpassing Morgan Wallen, who charted 37 for a week last May. With 40 debuts (likewise, thus, a single-week record), he also becomes the first act ever to have accumulated more than 400 career entries on the chart.

All 42 titles are from Drake’s three new albums — ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR (released May 15 on OVO Sound/Republic) — which debut at Nos. 1, 2 and 3, respectively, on the Billboard 200, where he becomes the first artist to monopolize the top three simultaneously in the chart’s 70-year history.

Read on for details of the entire top 10 on this week’s Hot 100.

The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations.

The three members of long-running Japanese action comic punk band Peelander-Z were seriously injured in a car crash last Monday (May 18) afternoon in Albuquerque, N.M. According to KOB4 TV, the band’s booking agent said the trio were driving westbound on I-40 an hour from the city when a semi-truck rear-ended their tour van.

The Japanese-born members of the high-energy band formed in Austin, Texas in 1998 — who each take on color-based pseudonyms such as those used by current members Peelander Yellow or Peelander Pink — have all been receiving treatment in an intensive care unit for injuries including broken bones, fractured vertebrae, broken ribs and other serious traumas.

Member Yellow (born Kengo Hioki) reportedly remains unresponsive, though a band spokesperson said doctors have taken him off a ventilator. “With the reports from the hospitals and from the doctors and the staff, things look very promising. It just was just, it was really bad,” booking agent Brad Raffenaud told the station. “Just lucky that they’re all three alive. I mean, if you were to drive past an accident like that, you wouldn’t imagine that anyone would survive that.”

The band has canceled all their remaining dates on their current tour and a GoFundMe has been raised to cover the medical expenses for Yellow, Pink and Tiger; at press time it had raised more than $156,000 of its $170,000 goal. According to the post, Yellow has “multiple fractures to his spine, ribs and arm and evidence of traumatic brain injury, which is being closely monitored.” The injuries are no longer considered life-threatening, but he will require additional surgeries and “significant rehabilitation.”

It reported that Pink (born Yumiko Kanazaki) suffered several bone fractures in her legs and pelvis, as well as abdominal trauma and organ injuries. She has reportedly undergone several surgeries and will also require quite a bit of rehabilitation. Third member, Tiger, reportedly “suffered a head injury and is being monitored for traumatic brain injury but has show significant progress and is expected to be discharged soon.” He will also reportedly require occupational and physical rehab after discharge.

In an Instagram post last week, Raffenaud wrote, “Friends. Please keep Peelander-Z in your thoughts. The band had a terrible accident yesterday in New Mexico while on tour. The van was rear ended by a semi truck and all members are currently hospitalized with major injuries and being closely monitored.”

At press time a spokesperson for the group could not be reached for comment on their current status of when they are expected to be discharged from the hospital. While all their upcoming headline shows have been canceled, some local Albuquerque bands will play a benefit show at the InsideOut on Friday (May 29) to help support the group, with sets from Night Child, Weedrat, Dazeyrot, Rebilt, 27 Devils Joking and more.
