NELLY’S COUNTRY GRAMMAR CELEBRATES 25TH ANNIVERSARY

WITH LIMITED EDITION EXPANDED VINYL

AVAILABLE TODAY

Nelly, the St. Louis-bred hip-hop juggernaut celebrates the 25th anniversary of his stone-classic debut album Country Grammar featuring the omnipresent radio hits “Country Grammar,” “E.I.,” “Ride wit Me,” on June 27 with via Republic/UMe with the release of a special expanded limited-edition translucent blue 2LP set. The album will also be available on standard black 2LP vinyl. Available, HERE.

Hailed upon release by Rolling Stone as “the best thing to come out of St. Louis since Redd Foxx,” by NME as the “album of the year so far,” and by People, who proclaimed that Nelly “marked his hometown of St. Louis as a major contender,” Country Grammar debuted at No. 3 on the Top 200 and soon vaulted to No. 1. In 2016, the RIAA certified the album Diamond, selling more than 10 million copies to date, a feat which placed Nelly among rock superstars like Led Zeppelin, the Doors and Bruce Springsteen.

As a creative heavyweight from St. Louis during a time when most rappers were from the East Coast, the West Coast, or the South, Nelly’s breezy, twangy approach proved to be a breath of fresh air for the genre. When his debut single “Country Grammar (Hot Shit),” which was hung on the children’s clapping game “Down Down Baby,” was released in February 2000, became a smash hit and peaked at No. 7 on the Hot 100, the foundation was laid for his blockbuster debut album to break into the mainstream. He continued his parade of hits with No. 1 hits like “Grillz,” “Hot in Herre,” “Dilemma,” and Grammy-winning “Shake Ya Tailfeather,”

Whether revisited digitally or on wax, Country Grammar’s beloved hits, like “Ride Wit Me” (No. 3) and the airwaves-conquering title track have dominated global culture for more than two decades. The album was produced by Jason “Jay E” Epperson, who himself did a tremendous amount to craft the sound of 2000s Midwestern hip-hop.

Born Cornell Iral Haynes Jr. in Austin, Texas, the rapper showed early promise, forming The St. Lunatics in 1993 with his childhood friends, MCs “Ali” Jones, Torhi “Murphy Lee” Harper, Lavell “City Spud” Webb, and Robert “Kyjuan” Cleveland. After Jay E workshopped the music with Nelly, they shopped for labels in New York and the rapper was signed to Universal Records in 1999. The pair drew deeply from the sounds that surrounded them in the Midwest — urban, country, hip-hop — and fused them into a fresh, infectious, unforgettably hooky whole.

Country Grammar’s evergreen appeal also stems from its astonishing array of guests, including Cedric the Entertainer on “Intro,” Lil Wayne on “For My,” The Teamsters on “Never Let ‘Em C U Sweat,” and most of all his trusty collaborators St. Lunatics on “Steal the Show,” “Thicky Thick Girl” and “Batter Up.” The album went on to sell more than 10 million copies, making it the ninth best-selling rap album of all time in the U.S Country Grammar was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2000 Grammy Awards (along with its title track for Best Rap Solo Performance) and Nelly was crowned Best New Artist at the 2001 BET Awards.

Country Grammar – A mini-documentary was created for the 20th anniversary with animated clips, performance footage, and sees Nelly telling his story of the early beginnings as an artist with a unique style and sound, the creation of his Diamond-selling classic, Country Grammar, and how he put St. Louis on the hip-hop map.  View, HERE

The boundary-shattering hip-hop classic and the story of how an ambitious 25-year-old from St. Louis crafted a new form of urban music and changed the pop landscape forever. Nelly arguably put the Midwest on the rap game map.

STREET STYLE: ROLLS-ROYCE CAPTIVATES AT PARIS FASHION WEEK

‘At Paris Fashion Week this year, Pharrell Williams gave Beyoncé a custom Louis Vuitton handbag; Rihanna attended Dior; and Rolls-Royce was driving around Paris with paparazzi.’Vaughn L.

Rolls-Royce joins Paris Fashion Week to celebrate creativity and personal expression

• Spectre and Cullinan conveyed guests to shows and afterparties

• Reflects the marque’s connection with fashion through color, craft, and collaboration

“Paris has always fascinated me, ever since I lived there as a child. Its grand, symmetrical avenues, emotive monuments, and effortless elegance are timelessly enchanting. Paris Fashion Week is a celebration of vision, creativity, and individuality – values we share deeply at Rolls-Royce. We are always proud to see our motor cars so naturally integrated into the rhythm and style of the city during this extraordinary moment in the cultural calendar.” – Phil Fabre de la Grange, General Manager Bespoke, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars

Paris Fashion Week brings together some of the most influential and expressive individuals in global culture.

At this year’s Menswear Spring/Summer 2026 event, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has a quietly commanding presence across the French capital, taking its place among the style vanguard.

A select fleet of Cullinan and Spectre models are seen at key venues throughout the week, transporting notable guests to runway shows and exclusive after-show gatherings—mirroring the creativity, craftsmanship, and confidence that define this influential platform.

DOLCE&GABBANA MEN’S SS26 – PYJAMA BOYS

‘DG Men’s SS26 is timeless and necessary.’Vaughn L.

Summer allure, strictly Italian aesthetics, and a sense of lightness. The new Men’s Spring/Summer 2026 Collection speaks of a completely personal and authentic approach to style and of a wardrobe with a versatile soul, perfectly suited for everyday life.

The protagonist of the collection is the pyjama, which thanks to surprising combinations with unexpected aesthetic harmony, becomes casual, cosmopolitan, but also chic and elegant.

Part of the brand’s DNA brought to the runway in the 90’s, the pyjama is presented here in its classic, exquisitely Italian interpretation, in lightweight cotton jacquard with vertical stripes.

Layering, styling experiments, and touches of color contribute to present the pyjama in a new context. From beige to light blue, from cream to navy, and from green to brown, and timeless black: the color palette is refined and moves among neutral shades, punctuated with the iconic polka dot and leopard prints. 

The silhouettes favor soft cuts, emphasized by pleats and wide hems on the trousers, oversized lines on shirts and jackets, and premium leather pieces inspired by the 80’s.

Knitwear follows the same stylistic direction thanks to soft cardigans that, when needed, serve as outerwear; lightweight pieces paired with pyjama trousers, and handcrafted braided rope creations that convey a sense of lightness, highlighting Dolce&Gabbana’s artisanal mastery.

At night, the pyjama becomes precious, offering an elegant look, thanks to a harmonious dialogue between stripes and luminous hand-embroidered stones and crystals.

Among the accessories are cameo brooches and collar pins, necklaces with bright and colorful stones, worn individually or layered with rosaries, and sunglasses with designs inspired by past eras yet infused with the modern and unique attitude of every outfit.

The looks are completed with oversized Sicily bags, Vittoria bags offered in various sizes, shoulder-strap beauty cases, clutches, and models that replicate the cotton pouch coordinated with the pyjama.

The relaxed style of the collection is also reflected in the footwear selection, which features sneakers, terry cloth sandals, and fur-free slides.

GABI GOLDMAN IS NOSTALGIC

Gabi is the type of artist you go to bat for.’Vaughn L.

Swedish 27-year-old, born and raised in Gothenburg, indie recording artist Gabriella ‘Gabi’ Goldman, is positioned to become the secular R&B act of her generation.

After taking vocal lessons from a coach for a decade or so, Goldman realized that she had a talent that she needed to share with the world. Her voice reminds me of powerhouses SZA and Raye.

Gabi Goldman releases Nostalgia song from For Myself EP via 360 MAGAZINE.

On May 30, Goldman, a Brilliant Minds nominee, just released her last single, Nostalgia, which was written by herself and James Newman and produced by Stuart Crichton, from her debut EP For Myself, which was released on Redvolution Music. Memorable moments in her life are woven together melodiously. She taps into her cerebral to explore issues related to mental health and self-awareness. The newly launched heart-wrenching yet spellbinding track paints a dismal picture of someone trying to release the loss of love. Daily drunk texting intermixed with massive amounts of uncertainty about what the future holds on a relationship front. The singer-songwriter effortlessly executed the lyrics with extreme vulnerability while showcasing her sultry, soulful vocal acrobatics. Dive deeper into her soundtrack. Other dynamic tracks include: 2 Hard 2, Body Heat, and standout Few Good Friends.

Professionally packaged, she is an ingenue with a credible acting resume and an insatiable desire to entertain. With amazing visuals, a silky sound, and an undeniable exotic beauty, coupled with a strong sense of style, it’s only a matter of time that she will become a household name. After all, Hollywood has a newfound infatuation with multi-hyphenates that they can further build out their brands.

This fall, Gabi Goldman will be moving to Hollywood for an acting class.

GABI GOLDMAN Q+A

Have you faced any difficulties as an independent recording artist with their own label? Can you share a few of your most memorable moments during your journey? Any major accomplishments or losses?

That’s not an easy question to answer. It’s really tough, I’m not gonna lie. I began at a young age. At 16, my manager at the time started arranging meetings and sessions in Stockholm during the weekends (i’m from gothenburg), and later on trips to LA, meeting record labels, A&Rs etc. I never in a million years thought I’d go independent after that, but that was the natural result after that experience. I’m beyond grateful for that, not only for learning and doing it myself but also for the knowledge I now possess. I’ve cried myself to sleep endless nights, feeling panicked and alone, but then I’m just as happy when I get booked for huge shows and events and get the attention and recognition I always longed for. It is true that it goes both ways. I’m proud. 

What is your goal with this cinematic body of work now that your debut EP For Myself has been completed with Nostalgia? Tour? Do you have any plans to shoot a video? Have any songs been used in films or TV shows?

Yes, my visual team and I did a project alongside my EP. We created one-minute clips for every song, which tells a story throughout the whole EP. I have not yet posted the last clip for Nostalgia, I am still holding onto that one for a little longer. A teaser can be found on my Instagram here.

If you had the chance to collaborate with any artist in the world, who would you choose and why?

I think I and 070 Shake could do something cool. Or the weekend, KWN even. I love Raye, but we might be too close in sound. If Amy Winehouse was alive, she would be HER! I apologize for my ADHD… This one was too challenging.

Brilliant Minds nominated you, and you became a finalist for Brilliant Sounds. Can you remember where you were or what you were doing when you were informed of this honor? What was your initial reaction to this? Who was the initial person you contacted?

Yes, it’s funny you asked. During the day of the job, I was in the bathroom at my sales advisory job and felt extremely glamorous! I couldn’t call anyone, but I was jumping up and down while texting my family in our group chat. Don’t give up your day job 😉

Would you like to share anything we haven’t discussed? What advice do you have for aspiring artists? Community involvement? Do you have any current causes or organizations that you’re donating your name or likeness to?

Don’t be too hard on yourself (I tell myself that every day). Don’t be what people expect you to be. Don’t listen to people telling you that you’re too much, too little, or too everywhere. You’re you, and that’s okay. Life is too short. Do what you want, someone will understand and believe in it.

Whitney Houston Achieves 11 New RIAA Certifications

The estate of Whitney E. Houston announces eleven new certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

During her historic 40th anniversary in music and entertainment, Houston is the first African American Recording Artist to have three RIAA Diamond-Certified Albums.

The Estate of Whitney E. Houston today announces the eleven new certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) of the global icon Whitney Houston. This year marks the historic 40th Anniversary of Houston’s career in music and entertainment (February 14, 2025 through February 14, 2026).

In the era of digital streaming, Whitney Houston still remains on top with record-breaking sales from her Arista Records music recordings, including her combined physical sales, digital downloads, and on demand audio and video streams. Houston’s eleven new U.S. RIAA certifications include one album, The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album (19x Platinum) and ten of her biggest and most iconic songs: “I Will Always Love You,” (11x Platinum); “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me),” (8x Platinum); “I Have Nothing” (4x Platinum); “Higher Love” with Kygo [released on Kygo/RCA Records] and “How Will I Know” (each song is 3x Platinum); “Heartbreak Hotel,” “My Love Is Your Love” and “Saving All My Love” (each song is 2x Platinum); and “Run To You” and “Count On Me” (each song is Platinum).

Additionally, Houston is the first African American artist to have three RIAA Diamond-certified albums (10x Platinum for each album) including her self-titled debut album, Whitney Houston; her second studio album, Whitney, and The Bodyguard: Original Soundtrack Album.

These new RIAA certifications only include the U.S. numbers and do not include certifications from the 195 countries worldwide. In the U.S. alone, Houston’s RIAA certified units total 114.5 million across 38 titles (27 singles plus 11 albums).

“We are honored to share this great news with Whitney’s fans,” says Pat Houston, the executor of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and the president of The Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation. “I know that Whitney would be happy to know of the impact that her music has made globally. She always had a generous heart and a loving spirit. She would want us to say thank you to every person that contributed to her recordings, her productions, and the marketing of all her records, especially to Clive Davis and the extraordinary team of Arista Records through her many years at the label.”

Pat Houston continues: “Whitney would also want to say thank you to our partners, Primary Wave Music and her label home, Sony Music Entertainment and Legacy Recordings. She would be delighted to know that her loyal and worldwide fans have continued to love her and carry on her musical legacy through the generations. On behalf of her family and The Estate of Whitney E. Houston, we thank you for celebrating Whitney’s fortieth anniversary with us and for giving her your many years of love and support.”

RIAA President and Chief Operating Officer Michele Ballantyne says: “Whitney Houston’s iconic voice and powerful songs have carried her legacy across generations. With eleven new certifications, RIAA is proud to celebrate how her enduring impact is still felt throughout the music industry and as the Estate’s partnership with Sony finds moments to reach new fans. We are grateful for the remarkable gift Whitney left for us all!”

Brandy + Monica Announce First-Ever Co-Headlining Tour: The Boy Is Mine via 360 MAGAZINE.

Brandy + Monica Announce First-Ever Co-Headlining Tour: The Boy Is Mine

Featuring Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, & 2025 American Idol Winner Jamal Roberts

The highly anticipated The Boy Is Mine Tour was officially announced today on CBS Mornings by Brandy and Monica. The iconic GRAMMY Award-winning artists will embark on their first-ever co-headlining run this fall. Produced by Black Promoters Collective, the 24-city arena tour kicks off October 16 and travels across the U.S. through December 7. It also marks a historic moment more than 25 years in the making, building on the legacy of their 1998 game-changing duet “The Boy Is Mine,” which spent a record-shattering 13 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became a defining cultural touchstone of late ‘90s R&B. The song also placed them in an elite group of artists — including Whitney Houston (14 weeks with “I Will Always Love You”) and Mariah Carey (16 weeks with “One Sweet Day”) — who have commanded the Hot 100’s top spot for 13 weeks or more.

Joining them on the road is a powerhouse lineup of special guests: GRAMMY-winning superstar Kelly Rowland, chart-topping singer-songwriter and GRAMMY winner Muni Long, and rising star Jamal Roberts, fresh off his 2025 American Idol Season 23 win. With talent that spans generations—from foundational to future—the tour is positioned to be one of the most unforgettable, unmissable live events of the year.

Last year Brandy and Monica captivated a new generation with a surprise cameo in Ariana Grande’s “the boy is mine” music video from her GRAMMY-nominated album Eternal Sunshine. Then, in a full-circle moment, they lent their voices to the official remix. The video appearance sparked a viral frenzy, racking up millions of views and “the boy is mine” remix with Grande earned the duo a GRAMMY nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance—more than 25-years after the original win for “The Boy Is Mine,” which took home Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 1999 GRAMMY Awards.

The Boy Is Mine Tour promises a celebration of two of the most influential voices in R&B, each with catalogues full of era-defining hits that have shaped the genre across decades. It’s a monumental moment: it’s not only the first time Brandy and Monica have toured together, but a generational convergence honoring their unmatched influence while ushering in a bold new era of R&B.

“Bringing Brandy and Monica together for this tour is more than just a moment — it’s a cultural homecoming,” says Shelby Joyner, President of Black Promoters Collective. “Their impact on R&B is immeasurable, and ‘The Boy Is Mine’ continues to be one of the most iconic collaborations of all time. At BPC, we’re committed to celebrating culture and legacy, and this tour is a powerful example of both.”

“This really is a full-circle moment. Monica and I coming together again isn’t just about the music—it’s about honoring where we came from and how far we’ve both come. ‘The Boy Is Mine’ was a defining chapter in R&B, and to share the stage all these years later is bigger than a reunion—it’s a celebration of growth, sisterhood, and the love our fans have given us from day one.” — Brandy

“The love that ‘The Boy Is Mine’ continues to receive means everything to me. This tour is a celebration of our history, our impact, and the fans who have grown with us. Brandy and I have been on our own unique journeys, and coming back together in this way is a reminder of the power of respect, strength, and real music. We’re giving the people what they’ve been asking for, and doing it with grace, love, and purpose. God’s timing perfectly aligned us.” — Monica

Fans can expect a powerful, soul-stirring, and high-energy night of music and vocal brilliance, backed by a live band and special collaborative moments on stage. Each night promises to be more than a concert — a musical milestone.

Tickets go on sale Friday, June 27, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time via Ticketmaster.com. Presales begin Thursday, June 26 from 10:00 AM to 11:59 PM local time via the code BPC.

A cinematic mini-movie marks the perfect cue for this moment, watch again HERE. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker and production designer Ethan Tobman—known for his work with Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and Ariana Grande, in addition to Oscar- and Emmy-winning projects. Tobman delivers a The Boy Is Mine mini-movie with a bold and emotional visual, setting the stage for the tour.

Louis Vuitton Launches Sun Song Fragrance

Louis Vuitton announces new fragrance, Sun Song. Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud was inspired by the contrasts, state of mind, and spirit of Los Angeles, exploring the West Coast in all its light, extravagance, and delicateness.

The collection’s aptly-named Sun Song is an anthem to sunny days, turquoise skies, and rays of light reflecting off the sea–the joys of summer sun warming the skin. In Jacques Cavallier Belletrud’s eyes, bright orange blossom sets the tone for this radiant fragrance, lemon lifts the spirits, and musk underscores this jubilant bliss. A unique fusion between the airiness of a fruity mist and the depth of flowers, each Cologne Perfume in this olfactory escapade tells a tale of light. 

When designing the bottle, Alex Israel–a leading figure in modern art–turned to a bright and fun-loving color palette. Inspired by midsummer’s hues and the artist’s signature gradients, a sunny yellow-orange color ramp turns the bottle into a true concentrate of light.

Sun Song will be available in select Louis Vuitton stores and on louisvuitton.com starting July 3rd.
