Lana Del Rey's Latest Hit Debuts On A Huge Number Of Billboard Charts
Lana Del Rey returns to the Billboard charts this week with her new single 'Henry, Come On' — and she makes quite the entrance. The track doesn't just appear on one or two tallies…it debuts on 10 different rankings at once. That's a solid showing for a song that hasn't yet become a runaway smash, but thanks to its cross-genre appeal, it manages to score an impressive number of placements across a wide range of lists.
'Henry, Come On' performs so well right out of the gate for two primary reasons. First, the single sold well enough to earn a spot on rankings that focus specifically on digital purchases, and it was streamed in solid numbers too, which brought it to tallies dedicated to those forms of consumption.
Billboard classifies 'Henry, Come On' as both rock and alternative. That genre flexibility means the track can appear on tallies focused on each of those musical styles individually, as well as on combined rock and alternative rankings. It even reached some non-genre-specific lists.
While 'Henry, Come On' reaches double-digit Billboard rankings in its debut frame, it manages to crack the top 10 on just two of them. The track starts at No. 4 on the Alternative Digital Song Sales chart and at No. 5 on the Rock Digital Song Sales list. Somewhat surprisingly, though, the tune doesn't sell quite enough to land on the all-genre Digital Song Sales tally this week.
According to Luminate, 'Henry, Come On' sold 1,300 copies in the U.S. during its first full tracking frame. That figure is enough to make Del Rey's latest a top seller in her primary genres, but not quite enough to compete with the biggest releases across all styles at the moment.
'Henry, Come On' barely sneaks onto the Hot 100. The cut debuts at No. 90 this week, showing that while it's a bestseller in its genres and a fairly strong streamer, it hasn't yet crossed over and become a broader, mainstream hit, at least not yet.
'Henry, Come On' serves as the lead single from Del Rey's forthcoming album, which has gone through some notable changes recently. The full-length was originally titled Lasso, then briefly retitled The Right Person Will Stay. Now, it seems that the country hybrid set — one that will reportedly blend elements of Del Rey's signature sound with country influences — has changed names once again and currently doesn't have an official release date.
Just one week after 'Henry, Come On' arrived, Del Rey dropped 'Bluebird,' the second single from the still-untitled project. That track is expected to hit the Billboard charts in the coming days.

Keith Urban Helps the Next Generation of Country Stars in a Special Way
Keith Urban Helps the Next Generation of Country Stars in a Special Way originally appeared on Parade. Keith Urban's undeniable talent has made him one of the most successful names in the country music industry—and he wants to help the next stars. In a partnership with the Tamworth Country Music Festival, the Australian native, 57, has launched the Keith Urban Rising Star Scholarship. The program will bring an artist from the Land Down Under to Nashville, Tennessee, as part of an all-expenses-paid trip, Billboard reported. The lucky musician will have "unprecedented access" to the city's music scene, including the chance to perform and write, per the outlet. The artist will also be introduced to personnel from the music business and have two days of recording time at Urban's studio, The Sound, which he purchased in June 2024, according to Mixonline. "Sometimes all a musician needs is an opportunity to be heard or someone to help nurture their talent. Having the opportunity to do that not only inspires me, I'm hoping that in some way this scholarship will serve to inspire others," Urban said, per Billboard. The four-time Grammy Award-winner has a long history with the Tamworth Country Music Festival. In 1989, he won the Star Maker competition at the Australia-based event, which helped lead him to worldwide stardom. The "Blue Ain't Your Color' singer was just 22 at the time. The 2026 Tamworth Country Music Festival will take place from January 16-25. "Held in Australia's Country Music Capital, Tamworth, the Toyota Country Music Festival is recognised as Australia's largest and longest country music festival in the southern hemisphere!" the festival's website states. Artists interested in the Rising Scar Scholarship can apply at beggining in January 2026. Country music is highly popular in the Land Down Under. According to a July 2023 report from The Music Network, data from Luminate placed Australia as the world's No. 3 market for country music, right behind the U.S. and Canada. Urban is currently on his 2025 High and Alive World Tour, which began on May 22 in Orange Beach, Alabama. The tour headed to Australia on August 13 and will also travel to Canada before returning to the U.S. The "Somebody Like You" singer will wrap up the tour on October 17 in Nashville. Keith Urban Helps the Next Generation of Country Stars in a Special Way first appeared on Parade on Aug 19, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 19, 2025, where it first appeared.

Michael Franti splits with management after abuse allegations, but tour continues
Michael Franti has reportedly split with his longtime management company following sexual abuse allegations made against him by younger singers and colleagues he worked with. The Bay Area-born musician had been represented by Activist Artist Management for nearly a decade, according to multiple sources who spoke to Billboard. The Chronicle reached out to the West Hollywood-based management company on Tuesday, Aug. 19, for comment. Franti has denied the accusations but admitted to a romantic relationship outside his marriage with Spanish American singer Victoria Canal, which he said was consensual. 'I'm aware of the recent posts this artist made about our relationship, and while I support her need to express herself publicly, the relationship was completely consensual, based on mutual feelings and attraction,' Franti, 59, wrote in a statement on Sunday, Aug. 17. 'I vehemently dispute any version of the story that says otherwise.' Canal, who turned 27 this month, alleged in an Instagram post last week that as a 19-year-old she was groomed and abused by a 'very powerful' older musician. She wrote that the man, whom she did not name, initially appeared 'loving, charismatic, and principled' but in private was controlling, abusive and photographed her without consent. 'This is something I've never spoken about publicly, and have been holding for eight years now — it has plagued my body, spirit, and mind,' she wrote. 'These behaviors progressed over a year, slowly keeping me more isolated in a highly unfamiliar and contained environment,' Canal alleged, adding that was still a virgin at the time. In recounting her story, she said she was not allowed to have separate accommodations and that whenever she wanted to sleep in a bed or have a shower, 'he made sure it was his.' The fallout was immediate. Several artists, including Dispatch, Maggie Rose and Liz Vice, dropped out of Franti's Soulshine at Sea cruise, prompting the event's promoter Sixthman to cancel the sold-out November voyage. While she said she was not planning to make any other statements because 'the person who groomed me doesn't deserve so much real estate on my page,' Canal followed up on Sunday, Aug. 17, by posting screenshots of others who recounted similar experiences with the same man. 'I feel a responsibility (and have been asked by some who approached me) to share on these victims' behalf,' Canal wrote. 'Let this be a shedding of light on my own discovery — that I am not the only victim of this person.' Among the alleged victims who chose to share her identity was Carla Swanson, who co-founded SoulShine yoga resort hotel in Bali with Franti in 2011. Swanson — who said 'this same person forced me to sign an NDA. Twice.' — claims that she 'did pick up on a sexual vibe from him' and noted that after Canal shared her story, 'now it all makes sense.' Swanson shared screenshots of texts alleging he also groomed her when she was 19, and claimed that he sexually harassed one of her friends during a recording session. She described her abuser as a 'master manipulator and user,' comparing him to President Donald Trump. The following day in an Instagram Story, Canal added that she's 'used to gaslighting from this person.' 'I'm the one that has to live with effects of what really happened in my body, and I am the one responsible for my own healing,' Canal wrote. 'I have no agenda for sharing my story — I simply want to let go.' 'My wife found out about it and to save my marriage, we ended the relationship,' Franti wrote. 'I broke my wedding vows, I broke my wife's trust, I broke her heart, and for that I am deeply sorry for the pain my actions have caused her… My wife and I have done an incredible amount of work for me to repair the damage that I did. I have and continue to apologize to Sara and my family for the pain that I have caused you.' He added, 'I am also apologizing to the artist for the pain you are going through. My mistake was breaking the vows of our marriage, and involving someone else in the breaking of those vows. For that I will have to atone for the rest of my life. A public conversation about a private issue is never easy for anyone involved and I am sorry you are hurting.' Despite parting ways with Activist and the cruise cancellation, Franti's Welcome to the Family Tour is continuing. The trek includes a scheduled stop at Saratoga's Mountain Winery on Tuesday, Aug. 26.

Taylor Swift Surges On Billboard Charts After Album Announcement
Many of billionaire pop star Taylor Swift's albums surged dozens of spots on the latest Billboard 200 albums chart released Tuesday, days after she announced her upcoming 12th studio album, 'The Life of a Showgirl.' Swift's albums surged on the Billboard charts this week. (Photo by Ashok Kumar/TAS24/Getty Images for TAS Rights Management) Getty Images for TAS Rights Management Swift charts nine albums on this week's Billboard 200, led by her latest release 'The Tortured Poets Department,' which returned to the top 20 at No. 18 after Swift appeared on her boyfriend Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast last week to unveil her forthcoming album. '1989' and 'Red (Taylor's Version)' made the biggest jumps this week, with the former leaping 82 spots to No. 98, re-entering the top 100, and the latter surging from No. 179 to No. 111. Two Swift albums returned to the top 40 this week: 'reputation,' which rose from No. 62 to No. 32, and 'Lover,' which jumped from No. 51 to No. 38. Swift's 2020 album 'evermore' re-entered the chart at No. 193, its first appearance after dropping off the Billboard 200 four months ago. The only Swift album to decline in popularity on the Billboard 200 this week is 'folklore,' which dipped five spots, though it holds as her second most-popular album of the week at No. 29. Swift also surged in popularity on Spotify after her album announcement. She rose to No. 1 on Spotify's daily artist chart last week on the day she made the announcement and has led that chart every day since, dethroning Morgan Wallen and Drake, the only two artists who had ranked above her. What To Watch For Whether Swift's new album can top the record-shattering sales debut of 'The Tortured Poets Department,' which sold a career-best 2.61 album equivalent units, composed of sales and streams, in its first week. Swift on Monday unveiled a limited edition vinyl version of 'The Life of a Showgirl,' which reportedly sold out in less than an hour. Swift has so far released artwork, the tracklist and the names of several collaborators for 'The Life of a Showgirl,' her new album due out on Oct. 3. The twelve-song tracklist includes titles like 'The Fate of Ophelia,' 'Ruin the Friendship' and 'Actually Romantic,' and Sabrina Carpenter is featured on the album's title track. Swift said she collaborated with producers Max Martin and Shellback, prolific pop hitmakers who previously worked on '1989' and 'reputation,' for this album. On his podcast, Kelce said the album is 'a lot more upbeat' and 'fun pop excitement,' calling it a 'complete 180 from a lot of the songs on 'Tortured Poets' for sure,' referring to her previous album, which included more slow ballads. Swift, on the podcast, described the songs as 'bangers' and said there are no additional songs coming, a departure from 'Tortured Poets,' when she surprised fans by releasing a companion album with 15 previously unannounced songs hours after the album's release. Swift's appearance on Kelce's podcast drew 1.2 million concurrent viewers and has garnered nearly 20 million views in five days. Forbes Valuation Swift is worth $1.6 billion, according to Forbes estimates, making her the wealthiest female musician in the world. Swift joined the billionaire ranks in October 2023 amid the success of her $2 billion-grossing Eras Tour, and she became the first person to become a billionaire based solely on the value of her music catalog and concert tours.
