The Kelce brothers are helping us get into the holiday spirit!
Jimmy Fallon and the Roots’ Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter have turned Travis Kelce‘s old tweets into music.Kelce’s old tweets from circa 2008-2018 have gone viral as of late following his high-profile relationship with pop star Taylor Swift. As part of a segment for the Tonight Show, Fallon and Black Thought took it upon themselves to turn the viral tweets into music.During the bit, titled ‘The Ballad of Travis Kelce’, Black Thought provided a summary of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s X/Twitter activity while Fallon narrated the tweets.“Sometimes he was really deep, the whole world he’d inspire/ The most powerful weapon on this earth is the human soul on fire / Then he’d take it down a notch and take things super light / Bout to get some Taco Bell!!! n see what’s poppin tonight.“Speaking about Kelce and Swift’s relationship that has essentially rocked the nation, public perception and PR expert Beth Booker said: “We’re seeing the romance unfold in real time, and I think that that’s why everyone is so on board with it.
2024 Grammy nominations were announced.But even as top contenders SZA, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo were already getting fitted for gowns, something was amiss.The fact that the nominees for music’s top prize were being announced before anyone got to chow and cocktail down for Friendsgiving — let alone Thanksgiving — made it feel way too early in the awards season.I mean, Mariah Carey didn’t even have enough time to properly defrost.Add to that the fact that the 2023 Country Music Awards took place just two days before the 2024 Grammy nominations were announced — and you knew that something just ain’t right with music award shows.That trend continued on Sunday night, when the Billboard Music Awards took the pre-Thanksgiving weekend spot long occupied by the American Music Awards — and turned it into one big turkey. (To make matters even weirder, both the BBMAs and the AMAs are owned by the same parent company.)Indeed, while the BBMAs were previously aired on NBC — these awards were relegated to a damn Billboard website.
It was a big night for Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards as they both took the most trophies.

2023 Billboard Music Awards are finally here — and, naturally, Taylor Swift is taking the lead with 20 nominations out of the 69 categories.Swift, who is currently on her Eras Tour in Brazil, is the most decorated female BBMAs artist of all time with 29 wins. On Sunday night, some of her nods include for Top Artist, Top Hot 100 Songwriter, Top Billboard 200 Album (“Midnights”).The “Archer” singer is followed on the leaderboard by Morgan Wallen, SZA, The Weeknd, Drake and Zach Bryan.The Billboard Awards kick off at 8 p.m.
The 2023 Billboard Music Awards are tonight (November 19)!
Taylor Swift’s music until after the visit of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs.The Chiefs are set to play the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL on Monday (November 20), and the local station Q102 has said that no songs by Swift, who is in a relationship with Kelce, will be played until at least Tuesday.“Q102 is punting Taylor Swift from the radio station for the entire weekend because while Q102 loves Taylor Swift, we can’t get enough of her, this weekend it’s really important we show our support for the Birds,” said Nugget, one of the station’s hosts, to CBS News Philadelphia.Swift publicly acknowledged her relationship with Kelce at her gig in Buenos Aires last Saturday (November 11), giving him a shout-out by changing a lyric in her ‘Midnights’ track ‘Karma’. “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me,” she sang.Travis Kelce and his brother Jason, meanwhile, have teamed up for a festive cover of The Pogues’ classic hit ‘Fairytale Of New York’.Swift’s Eras Tour landed in Brazil this week, but it has been touched by tragedy after a fan died before the show on Friday (November 17).The fan has been named as Ana Clara Benevides Machado, 23.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music If there is a bible for the music industry, it’s Donald Passman’s book, “All You Need to Know About the Music Business.” Since the first edition came out more than 30 years ago, it has guided countless musicians and executives, and has prevented many of them from making decisions they’d later regret. Considering the deep detail Passman gets into about contracts, royalties and other complicated business arrangements, his tone is remarkably conversational, and he makes sure readers don’t miss the important stuff: The section on business managers begins with him saying “Listen to me!!!” in italics with several exclamation marks.
