Megan Thee Stallion returns with fiery new single, Whenever
The rap superstar is back with a fiery track featuring a sample of Ms. Cherry's 2004 track 'It's Whatever'.
'Whenever' is produced by Bankroll Got It, the Bay Area production trio specialising in hip-hop, trap, R'n'B, and pop.
The song is the 'WAP' hitmaker's first since she released 'MEGAN: ACT II' in October, the deluxe edition of 'Megan', which featured new songs with Flo Milli, RM of BTS, TWICE and Spiritbox.
Megan recently rocked Coachella with special guests Queen Latifah, Ciara, Victoria Monet and Courtney LaPlante.
She stormed through her 18-song set on April 14, including a cover of GloRilla's 'Wanna Be' and a medley of 'Freak Nasty' / 'Girls in the Hood' / 'Where Them Girls At' / 'Savage'.
Megan was then joined by Spiritbox frontwoman Courtney – whose band she previously teamed up with on a heavy metal remix of 'Cobra' - for the live debut of their collaboration 'TYG'.
A few songs later, it was time for hip-hop icon Latifah to join her for the empowering female anthem, 'Plan B', before she poignantly performed her own song 'U.N.I.T.Y.'.
The surprises didn't end there.
Victoria came out for the live debut of 'Spin' and performed her song 'On My Mama'.
And finally, Ciara joined the hip-hop powerhouse for the debut of their track 'Roc Steady', mixed in with her noughties classic 'Goodies'.

'Would have known': The truth behind Prince Harry's mediation with King Charles as exiled royal reels from Netflix calling time on $153 million content deal
Netflix have grown increasingly unsatisfied with Meghan and Harry's performance on its network, and the dwindling number of viewers who tune in to their shows have had enough too. The company had originally made a USD$100 million (AUD$153 million) deal with the pair - but that was when the couple were spilling all about the entrails of their relationship with the Royal Family. When the couple ran out of new material their broadcasts began to flop. As a result Netflix is not renewing their contract when it expires in September. It's a massive shock that could significantly affect their lives. They were rarely apart when they were newlyweds, but will they still stay together? Meghan now sees herself as a businesswoman despite complaining in a recent podcast that she had to work so hard. Harry often travels. Recently he went to Angola to support the work of the HALO Trust that backed Princess Diana's famous walk through a minefield. Harry no doubt wanted to feel close to his mother, who died in 1997, while bolstering his image. Meghan likes to keep in the public's eye, readily using social media, despite she and Harry expressing concerns on the negative impacts. She often shows their two children Archie and Lilibet in her posts but won't show their faces. And followers are getting bored with them due to their rank hypocrisy. Her latest series, 'With Love, Megan', failed to reach Netflix's top 300 most-watched programs. Harry's situation was worse, with his Netflix polo sport feature rating 3,436th in Netflix's engagement report. Nonetheless, Meghan thinks highly of herself and believes she knows better than the experts around her who often don't stay very long. Even her produce is not always given enough attention. About a month ago she produced apricot spread for her 'As Ever' brand, showcasing jam as an important part of her business output. The Duchess of Sussex was blasted for supposedly picking fruit from a tree which showed some green looking apricots, raising questions on whether the fruit she was using were in season or not. Jam guru Donna Collins publicly criticised her and called the jam 'a real disappointment'. Then after you thought things couldn't get any worse, two of the biggest brand experts in the US lashed out at the Princess. Canadian lawyer Phillip Millar and California marketing executive Camille Moore, both stars of 'The Art of the Brand' podcast called Meghan a 'fraud'. They said the people behind the 'As Ever' brand are 'milking' her fame she gained after marrying Harry, and that she is 'suckering people into buying her stuff'. And that the concept of Meghan's lifestyle business was one of the worst they have ever seen. In mid July there was a meeting between Tobyn Andreae, the King and Queen's communications secretary, with Liam Maguire and Meredith Maines who work for Harry. The aides sat on a balcony but only for ten minutes, after Mr Maguire spotted a photographer. Was the snapper there by chance? And was part of the meeting done outside to see if it would leak? Harry would have known of Netflix's decision, therefore wanted his father to give him much needed money. The meeting was less likely a ploy to seek peace with his father. In a recent interview with the BBC he said he missed his country and then used part of the 30 minute-interview to accuse the royal household of influencing the Court of Appeals' decision to reduce his security detail. Money aside, Netflix's action is a major personal set back. Does Meghan feel she would be better off without unsuccessful Harry? It will be a second blow for Harry, who may feel like another 'Spare', similar to the title of his book. The couple moving back to London seems unlikely. Meghan knows she is not popular in the UK and so far sources have said that she won't come. Or bring the children. The King loves Harry like any father loves his child, but hugely disapproves of his behaviour, particularly his rudeness about his adored wife Camilla - calling her 'dangerous' and that she 'left bodies left in the street' on her ascent to royal stardom. Harry has written in his memoir that Camilla "sacrificed me on her personal PR altar". Angela Levin is an award-winning British journalist and royal biographer. Her biography Harry: Conversations with the Prince was published in 2018. Her work has been commended twice at the British Press Awards.

BTS agency HYBE raided over alleged fraud trading
HYBE, the agency behind K-pop superstars BTS, was raided by police on Thursday in connection with alleged fraudulent trading involving its founder Bang Si-hyuk, investigators said. "We are conducting a search and seizure at HYBE's headquarters in Yongsan District," Seoul police said in a brief statement. Bang, the mastermind behind BTS, is under investigation over allegations that he misled early investors to reap illicit profits from the company's 2020 initial public offering. He is accused of gaining around 200 billion won (US$146 million) through the process, according to local reports. HYBE has denied Bang committed any wrongdoing. "We will dutifully clarify that the listing at the time was carried out in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations," the company said in early July, pledging "active cooperation" with authorities to get to the bottom of the case. Bang allegedly misled HYBE's early investors, who held pre-IPO shares, by telling them in 2019 he had no plans to take the company public. He then allegedly encouraged them to sell their shares to private equity funds when in fact IPO plan was in the making. HYBE went public in 2020, after the shareholders sold their stakes. The 52-year-old is accused of secretly striking a deal with the private equity funds to receive a portion of the profits they made from selling shares after the IPO. - 2026 comeback - The investigation comes as all seven BTS members complete their mandatory military service and prepare for a comeback next year. HYBE announced this month that a new album and world tour were scheduled for 2026. BTS, known for championing progressive causes, holds the record as the most-streamed group on Spotify and became the first K-pop act to top both the Billboard 200 and Billboard Artist 100 charts in the United States. Before their military service, BTS generated more than 5.5 trillion won ($4 billion) in yearly economic impact, according to the Korea Culture and Tourism Institute. That accounts for roughly 0.2 percent of South Korea's total GDP, according to official data. There had been debate over whether BTS should be granted exemptions from military service -- sometimes granted to Olympic medallists and classical artists who win top international awards -- but pop stars do not qualify under South Korean laws. With the lack of public consensus on the matter, the members enlisted individually, beginning in late 2022.

Neighbours blast ‘disgusting' Andy Byron as ex-Astronomer CEO's wife hides out in $2.4 million mansion
Former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his wife Megan Kerrigan Byron's neighbors find his alleged infidelity 'disgusting' but believe the family deserves 'privacy' as they navigate overnight fame and heartbreak. Those who live in the pair's Kennebunk, Maine, neighborhood told the Daily Mail Thursday — just over a week after Andy's alleged affair with an employee was exposed at a Coldplay concert — that 'everyone has seen' the viral 'kiss cam' video. 'The family do not want to talk about it,' one angry local explained before asking the outlet to leave the exclusive street next to the Webhannet Golf Club. According to the Daily Mail, Megan fled the duo's $1.4 million home in Northborough, Mass., and has been hiding out at their $2.4 million Maine mansion while holding crisis talks about her marriage. Multiple family members were seen going in and out of the four-bedroom, four-bathroom, 4,169-square-foot property over the weekend, including her older sister, Maura, per the outlet. It's unclear whether Andy, 50, came to speak to Megan, also 50, following the incident. Last Wednesday, while at the Coldplay concert in Boston, Andy and Kristin Cabot, a top HR executive at Astronomer, were caught canoodling on the big screen. 'Whoa, look at these two,' frontman Chris Martin exclaimed into the mic. However, once the couple noticed they were on the jumbotron, Andy let out a 'f–king hell, it's me' and immediately ducked out of view, while Cabot, who acknowledged that 'this is awkward,' hid her face in embarrassment. 'Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy,' the musician joked as the audience erupted in laughter. A TikTok of the moment spread like wildfire online, prompting Megan to remove her married name from her Facebook page before deleting her account altogether. Astronomer's Board of Directors then launched an investigation into the matter, which resulted in both Andy and Cabot — who is also married — being placed on leave. Andy resigned over the weekend.
