Bad Bunny Drops ‘Alambre Púa' After Debuting Track at Puerto Rico Residency
The track's official release comes after Bad Bunny debuted it live over the weekend, highlighting 'Alambre Púa' as the show-opener at his residency at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The propulsive, sweltering track also arrives with a visualizer that, for the most part, follows a woman's legs as she dances across a beach.

Eventually, the camera pulls out to reveal the dancer on an elaborate soundstage, with a flashing sign behind her emblazoned with the name of Bad Bunny's San Juan residency: 'No me quiero ir de aquí' ('I don't want to leave here').
The 30-show residency officially kicked off July 11, with concerts scheduled through Sept. 14. After wrapping the hometown run, Bad Bunny will kick off a world tour that runs through 2026, with concerts throughout Central and South America, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.
Earlier this month, before releasing 'Alambre Púa,' Bad Bunny released a music video for his Debí Tirar Más Fotos track, 'Nuevayol.' The clip notably ends with a voice that sounds a lot like Donald Trump's delivering a staunchly pro-immigrant message at a moment when the Trump administration is leaning heavily into brutal crackdowns on migrants, including mass detentions and deportations.
Bad Bunny released Debí Tirar Más Fotos in January, marking his first album since 2023's Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana. Along with his residency and world tour, Bad Bunny also has a pair of movies coming out this year, including Happy Gilmore 2 with Adam Sandler and Darren Aronofsky's Caught Stealing.

Ozzy Osbourne Has Died at 76—Here, a Look Back at the Legendary Prince of Darkness's Inimitable Style
Ozzy Osbourne—the legendary Black Sabbath singer and television personality—has died, according to his family. 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,' the Osbournes said in a statement released on Tuesday. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.' The musician was 76. Born in the Aston area of Birmingham, England, John Michael Osbourne—later known as Ozzy—took an early interest in music. 'The only thing I had a passion for was music,' he said in the 2020 film Biography: The Nine Lives of Ozzy Osbourne. He was finally thrust into the heady world of rock and roll when he formed the group Black Sabbath in his native city in 1968, alongside guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler, and drummer Bill Ward. After releasing their self-titled debut album in 1970, Black Sabbath found a global spotlight with their follow-up record, Paranoid, released later the same year. Featuring hits such as 'Iron Man' and 'Paranoid,' the album played a pivotal role in shaping the heavy-metal genre that we know today. ('They've cut some amazing albums since this, but nothing has been quite this flawless,' reads a review from Rolling Stone.)

Malcolm-Jamal Warner Drowned in Area Known for Rip Currents
The beach in Costa Rica where Malcolm-Jamal Warner drowned was known for its strong surf and dangerous rip currents, and was not protected by lifeguards when he died on Sunday. A second man who was rescued from the sea that day was in critical condition, the authorities said. Warner, who shot to fame as a teenager when he played Theo Huxtable on 'The Cosby Show' from 1984 to 1992, was swimming at a beach on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica, south of Limón, when he was 'apparently swept away by a current' around 2 p.m. on Sunday, the nation's Judicial Investigation Department said in a statement. Three ambulances, a jet ski and nine rescuers were dispatched to the area, Playa Grande, a popular tourist destination, a spokesman for the Costa Rican Red Cross said in a statement. Warner, 54, was pulled from the sea and given CPR for more than 20 minutes, but attempts to resuscitate him failed, officials said. A second man, 35, was rescued and taken to a local clinic in critical condition, the Red Cross said. He was not identified, and no other details were given. The area, whose waves make it a favorite among surfers, is known for dangerously strong rip currents. Mike Geist, the vice president of Caribbean Guard, a group of about 35 volunteer lifeguards who patrol three beaches in the area, said a lack of resources had left the beach where Warner died unguarded on Sunday. The group had temporarily moved its team to another beach that draws more people and had recently been the site of several rescues and a fatality. 'We had to make this judgment call, and it turned out to be bad,' Geist said, lamenting that his organization did not have the funds to staff the beach every day. 'It sickens my stomach that we weren't there, because I can't tell you how many days I personally spent there on that post, in that guard stand, and because of stupid money, you know, and we just did not have enough people to do it.'

Ozzy Osbourne, lead singer of Black Sabbath and godfather of heavy metal, dies at 76
Ozzy Osbourne, the gloomy, demon-invoking lead singer of the pioneering band Black Sabbath who became the throaty, growling voice — and drug-and-alcohol ravaged id — of heavy metal, died Tuesday, just weeks after his farewell show. He was 76. 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time,' a family statement said. In 2020, he revealed he had Parkinson's disease after suffering a fall. Either clad in black or bare-chested, the singer was often the target of parents' groups for his imagery and once caused an uproar for biting the head off a bat. Later, he would reveal himself to be a doddering and sweet father on the reality TV show 'The Osbournes.' Black Sabbath's 1969 self-titled debut LP has been likened to the Big Bang of heavy metal. It came during the height of the Vietnam War and crashed the hippie party, dripping menace and foreboding. The cover of the record was of a spooky figure against a stark landscape. The music was loud, dense and angry, and marked a shift in rock 'n' roll. The band's second album, 'Paranoid,' included such classic metal tunes as 'War Pigs,' 'Iron Man' and 'Fairies Wear Boots.' The song 'Paranoid' only reached No. 61 on the Billboard Hot 100 but became in many ways the band's signature song. Both albums were voted among the top 10 greatest heavy metal albums of all time by readers of Rolling Stone magazine. 'Black Sabbath are the Beatles of heavy metal. Anybody who's serious about metal will tell you it all comes down to Sabbath,' Dave Navarro of the band Jane's Addiction wrote in a 2010 tribute in Rolling Stone. 'There's a direct line you can draw back from today's metal, through Eighties bands like Iron Maiden, back to Sabbath.'
