“In the 48 hours leading up to this crowning moment, Spotify revealed 21 puzzle pieces with Taylor Swift-themed easter eggs in billboards from Sao Paulo to Jakarta. These clues culminated in a spotlight video that included nods to her universe – featuring everything from cats to her infamous red lips,” reads Spotify’s press release.

]]>The post Bad Bunny Scores Another No. 1 Album With “Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana” appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>With 184,000 equivalent album units earned during its first week on the chart, Nadie Sabe was the strongest contender for the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 this week. The album’s strong streaming activity is the main reason why it topped the charts, with SEA units comprising 176,000 of the album units, equaling 239.56 million on-demand official streams.
Bad Bunny scored his first No. 1 album in the US with El Último Tour Del Mundo in 2020, which made history as the first all-Spanish-language album to top the Billboard 200 chart. Its follow-up Un Verano Sin Ti spent 11 weeks at No. 1 following its release, setting several records along the way and becoming the first all-Spanish-language album to top the Billboard 200 Year-End Chart.
Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana was released October 13, just a few days after Bad Bunny’s surprise announcement, and it produced singles “Where She Goes”, “Un Preview”, and “Monaco”.

]]>The post Pedro Pascal Makes a Cameo During Bad Bunny’s “SNL” Monologue appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Pascal joined Bad Bunny to translate a portion of his monologue from Spanish to English. After firing a few sentences about his morning in New York, the Puerto Rican singer turned to Pascal for help, but the actor offered a joking translation, “He says, ‘I’m blessed to be here with my favorite actor Pedro Pascal.’”
— Saturday Night Live – SNL (@nbcsnl) October 22, 2023
This wasn’t Pascal’s only appearance during Bad Bunny’s SNL episode. The Mandalorian actor also reprised his role from his last season’s appearance on SNL in the hilarious sketch Protective Mom 2, in addition to introducing the singer ahead of his “Monaco” performance.
Lady Gaga also made a cameo and did an intro for Bad Bunny’s performance of “Un Preview”. The biggest shocker was seeing The Rolling Stones’ frontman make a cameo in sketches Telenovela and Convent Meeting, marking his first appearance on SNL since 1986.
The next episode of SNL will be hosted by the comedian Nate Bargatze, with Foo Fighters serving as musical guests.

]]>The post Bad Bunny’s New Album “Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana” is Coming Out This Friday appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana (Nobody Knows What Will Happen Tomorrow) marks the highly-anticipated follow-up to Bad Bunny’s record-breaking album Un Verano Sin Ti from last year. Expectations are running high, and Bad Bunny added some more fuel to the fire by announcing this album will officially be released on October 13.
He already gave us a taste of things to come with two singles: “Where She Goes” and “Un Preview”. Bad Bunny didn’t reveal the rest of the tracklist, but he’s promising all the songs are going to be “fuego” aka fire.
Bad Bunny discussed his upcoming album in a recent interview with Vanity Fair and said it’s going to be his most personal to date because he feels confident enough to talk about what he thinks and feels.
“I am playing around and enjoying myself, letting go. I’m being inspired a lot by the music of the ’70s – across genres, in both Spanish and English – but I’m not sure if this is going to shape my music, generally or just one song,” he told Vanity Fair.

]]>The post Full “SNL” Cast Returning for Season 49, Pete Davidson & Bad Bunny Among Hosts appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner, Punkie Johnson, Colin Jost, Ego Nwodim, Kenan Thompson, Bowen Yang, James Austin Johnson, and Sarah Sherman are all expected to return for another season. Chloe Troast, the close collaborator of SNL’s Please Don’t Destroy trio, will join the cast as a featured player.
The SNL veteran Pete Davidson will open the new season on October 14, with Ice Spice serving as a musical guest. He’ll be followed by the Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, who’ll pull double duty as both host and musical guest on October 21.
There have been some doubts about SNL’s return because the SAG-AFTRA strike still isn’t over, but this show has a full blessing from the union to return for Season 49.
“Our members appearing on Saturday Night Live either as hosts, guests, or cast members are working under the Network Code agreement, which is not a contract we are striking. They are not in violation of SAG-AFTRA strike rules, and we support them in fulfilling their contractual obligations,” read SAG-AFTRA’s official statement.

]]>The post Drake Teases New Collaboration With Bad Bunny During a Recent Concert appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Bad Bunny was one of the celebrities in attendance at Drake’s recent concert at Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, and this felt like the perfect time to announce their next collaboration.
“I wanna tell y’all something because y’all are L.A. and we love you. It’s been like six years since me and Benito did a song, so we got a song coming for y’all on my album and it’s real,” said Drake.
Drake and Bad Bunny previously collaborated on the smash hit “Mia” from 2018, which set several milestones for both artists. It was Drake’s first track where he sang entirely in Spanish, and it went on to become Bad Bunny’s first top 10 single as a lead artist after peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Drake recently embarked on his first tour in five years alongside 21 Savage, called It’s All a Blur Tour. It’s meant to support their collaborative album Her Loss, and it will take them across North America until it comes to a close in October.

]]>The post Travis Scott Teams Up With The Weeknd and Bad Bunny for Comeback Single “K-POP” appeared first on EverydayKoala.
]]>Scott took things into his own hands when it came to directing the “K-POP” music video and found a way to capture the world of all three artists involved in the song’s making. The “K-POP” visual takes us everywhere from a stadium full of motorbikes to a futuristic pink mansion that looks straight out of a sci-fi movie.
Scott is no stranger to A-list collaborations and seeing him join forces with The Weeknd and Bad Bunny doesn’t come as a shocker. In addition to collaborating with The Weeknd on several songs – most recently “Power is Power” ft. SZA—he also hopped on the remix of Bad Bunny’s “Krippy Kush” ft. Farruko and Rvssian.
“K-POP” serves as the lead single on Utopia, Scott’s first studio album since the release of Astroworld five years ago. This LP is expected to hit the shelves by the end of the month, and the Grammy-nominated rapper will promote it with an exclusive launch event which will be live-streamed from the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt on July 28.
