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.

Bad Bunny on Puerto Rico: 'It's Not Always Paradise, But ... I Don't Want to Leave'
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.

Review Of Celebration Key, Carnival's New Private Island Destination
The grand unveiling of Celebration Key, Carnival's new private island destination Carnival Last Saturday, Carnival Cruise Line unveiled Celebration Key, its new private island destination, in festive style with rousing music from the Bahama Brass Band, kaleidoscopic fireworks, a surprise appearance from Chief Fun Officer Shaquille O'Neal, and a symbolic turning of a 'key' to unlock the 10-story Suncastle, Celebration Key's towering crown jewel. Celebration Key's 10-story Suncastle at Paradise Plaza Carnival Excitement ran high among the nearly 5,000 passengers on the inaugural eight-night sailing on Carnival Vista from Port Canaveral to Celebration Key. The same could be said for Carnival employees, too, since the destination was twenty-five years in the making. Beyond logistics, like securing the rights to the land and partnering with the Bahamian government, Carnival took its time to ensure the $600 million destination truly catered to its longtime fans. 'We designed this with our guest in mind and what they love to do,' shared Christine Duffy, Carnival Cruise Line's president. Celebration Key's Starfish Lagoon is home to one of the Caribbean's largest freshwater lagoons. Carnival In contrast to Carnival's other private destination, Half Moon Cay, Celebration Key is bigger, livelier, and more family-friendly. Stretched across 379 acres—complimentary trams are available for scooting around—the leisure destination can currently berth two ships, regardless of size, whereas Half Moon Cay can only be accessed via tender. (Celebration Key's second phase will add two additional berths.) Another perk is having direct access to Grand Bahama Island. 'Many other exclusive destinations are isolated,' said Duffy. 'There's transportation right here if you want to get to the main city of Freeport.' Celebration Key's Pearl Cove Beach Club is the largest adults-only retreat at any cruise destination. Katie Chang With five distinct areas, Celebration Key has, in Duffy's words, 'fun for all.' Anchored by the Suncastle, Paradise Plaza serves as the island's entry point with a desk for booking shore excursions. Created with families in mind, Starfish Lagoon is home to one of the Caribbean's largest freshwater lagoons, a splash pad called Guppy Grotto, Suncastle's two water slides (additional costs apply), and cabanas and loungers for laying out. Like Starfish Lagoon, the adult-friendly Calypso Lagoon also has a massive lagoon, along with a DJ island, Swings Bar with 50 swings, and the world's largest swim-up bar. Lokono Cove celebrates Bahamian culture with colorful murals and retail stalls from local artisans (Coco Baya Craft Studio, Adonis Bahamas) selling jewelry, straw goods, and other handcrafted items. A premium experience for adults, Pearl Cove Beach Club (pricing starts at $179.99 per guest) is a tranquil retreat with its own infinity pool, dedicated beach area, restaurant and bar, and swim-up bar. Mingo's Tropical Bar & Kitchen is one of Celebration Key's sit-down restaurants. Katie Chang With multiple sit-down restaurants, food trucks—where you order from kiosks—and Captain's Galley Food Hall scattered across the island, Celebration Key makes sure guests don't have to look far when hunger kicks in. Guests can use their Sail & Sign card for one complimentary meal (an entree, drink, and cookie) at a designated outlet, or a twenty-five percent discount towards a single entree at a full-service restaurant. As for what to expect, the food runs the gamut from basic burgers to Bahamian specialties. The sit-down restaurant Mingo's Tropical Bar & Kitchen, for example, prepares conch in fritters, chowder, and ceviche, alongside locally caught fish and lobster, while Captain's Galley Food Hall is best suited for a quick and casual bite. The infinity pool at Celebration Key's Pearl Cove Beach Club Carnival As with any leisure destination, especially a new one, it's best to do a little planning in advance: how much money do you want to spend, and how do you want to spend the day with so many options? As Duffy puts it, 'Whether you want to have a meal at Mingo's looking at this beautiful view and get back on the ship, or hang in the infinity pool at the exclusive beach club all day, there's something for everyone.'

‘Top Chef' Winner Tristen Epps Takes Over Red Rooster Overtown
is an editor of Eater's South region, covering Atlanta, Nashville, Miami, New Orleans, and the Carolinas. She has been writing about the food scene in the Carolinas and Savannah for 12 years. Erin has resided in Charleston, South Carolina, for the past 20 years. Fresh off his win in the 22nd season of Top Chef, chef Tristen Epps is preparing for his next step — opening Afro-Caribbean restaurant Buboy in Houston, Texas. He's building buzz for the upcoming eatery with a pop-up tour, and one of his stops is Miami restaurant Red Rooster Overtown. Starting Friday, July 25, Epps will be back in the Red Rooster kitchen (he was previously an executive chef at the Marcus Samuelsson restaurant). Epps will serve dishes from his tenure at Red Rooster, as well as Afro-Caribbean fare that will be on the menu at Buboy. Red Rooster classics include the Rooster Royale (a whole chicken with tamarind-malta glaze), crispy green tomatoes with comeback sauce, oxtail fried rice, and tuna crudo with Cuban coffee ponzu. 'Working with Tristen has always been an absolute joy. He's a chef with deep creativity, heart, and an incredible sense of purpose. His return to Red Rooster Overtown is a full-circle moment, and I'm thrilled to collaborate with him again and feature some of his incredible new dishes from Buboy.' says chef-owner Marcus Samuelsson. When asked what to expect for the Buboy preview items, Epps says, 'My menus are always evolving, and I rarely repeat dishes. People can come each time and will have a different experience.' In an interview with Eater Houston, Epps explained that the Buboy pop-ups provide an opportunity to educate diners about the Transatlantic Slave Trade and its enduring social, cultural, and economic impacts. 'I want to make sure that this story behind this cuisine is told,' he says. 'Black food is American food. Black history is American history, and I want that to be really shown and in ways as best as I can.' While cooking for a Miami audience, Epps says he leans into Afro-Latin and Caribbean-Latin cuisine. 'I can celebrate that side of the diaspora, which includes Colombia, Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic, and more. Miami is a rich tapestry of all of those cultures, and it makes for a beautiful celebration of cuisine.' In Houston, he leans more into West African and Asian influences, as well as heavier on meats. 'In Miami, I do more in the lighter realm with fish and seafood,' he says. Diners can find information about upcoming dinners, including dates, menus, and reservation details, online.

Mysteries: ‘Pariah' by Dan Fesperman
Hal Knight, a 47-year-old comedian-turned-congressman, is the title character in Dan Fesperman's 13th novel, 'Pariah.' In the wake of a #MeToo-era scandal over his behavior on a film set, Hal is out of politics and the entertainment world. He's been dropped by his fiancée and is no longer welcome in polite U.S. society. In disgrace, Hal makes his way alone to a small Caribbean island where he hopes to hide in isolation while pondering 'Plan Z': downing the poison pills concealed in his luggage. 'Fast-acting, mostly painless.' But two unexpected things occur: The despotic president of the Eastern European nation of Bolrovia (an avowed fan of Hal's comedy) invites him for an all-expenses-paid visit and celebratory banquet-concert; and three mysterious Americans (two men and their female supervisor) drop by Hal's hotel to suggest he accept that invite—for his good, their good and the good of his country. Who are they? 'Anyone who says he's CIA is almost certainly an imposter,' the former congressman figures. 'Only someone who cagily avoids mentioning CIA can really be an Agency employee.' Hal says yes to both offers. He's grateful for the career attention (though wary of being perceived as the 'court jester of a wannabe dictator') and hopes maybe he can now do something worthwhile to make amends for his past mistakes and misdeeds. Mr. Fesperman, a former foreign correspondent as well as a veteran fiction writer, handles the absurdist elements of his plot with a light touch appropriate to the travails of (in Hal's mocking words) 'the Jerry Lewis of Bolrovia.' Yet the laughter takes a back seat to some real peril once things go awry and Hal starts improvising an unpredictable script. 'Pariah' is a most unusual and entertaining espionage caper, one in which the protagonist's serious flaws at last yield to the redeeming qualities of his better angels.
