Quavo Records Two New Songs Live on Plaqueboy Max's Livestream
Quavo appeared on a recent livestream with PlaqueBoyMax and recorded two new songs during their time together.
On Tuesday, Quavo sat down with PlaqueBoyMax in the studio during the producer's recent livestream and hopped in the booth to record some new tracks live for the viewers. The first song, 'Nun,' has a rambunctious trap beat, as Quavo drops some braggadocious flexes over soaring horns and hard-hitting drums. The second song, 'Glacier,' is much slower, as Quavo sings his way through to the end.

The new joints from Quavo come shortly after he unveiled a posthumous Takeoff collab titled 'Dope Boy Phone.' The new track came as the former Migos rapper makes a pivot into acting, and said in April he thinks he'll eventually become bigger than other rappers-turned-actors like Will Smith.
'They cant f— with me,' he told TMZ. The Atlanta star recently starred in High Rollers with John Travolta, which is a sequel to their previous film Cash Out that featured Sex and the City's Kristin Davis. Quavo was also in Savage Salvation alongside Robert De Niro and John Malkovich as well as Praise This with Chloe Bailey and Druski. His next starring role will likely be in an upcoming heist film called Takeover, which will also star Billy Zane. The movie was originally shot in 2022, but as of 2025 still does not yet have any locked-in release date.

Escaped Inmate Appears to Call on Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, YoungBoy Never Broke Again & Trump for Help
Antoine Massey is one of the two remaining inmates still on the run since allegedly breaking out of the Orleans Justice Center on May 16, and he may be looking for help from the president, as well as three rappers who have been entangled in the criminal justice system. A video that appears to feature Massey surfaced on social media on Monday (June 2), in which the man pleads with Lil Wayne, Meek Mill, YoungBoy Never Broke Again and Donald Trump for assistance in his legal situation. More from Billboard Joe Jonas Reflects on Infamous 'South Park' Episode: 'I Was the Only Brother That Loved It' Peter Murphy Cancels 2025 Tour Dates Due To Ongoing 'Health Issues' Ye Says He 'Dreams' of Apologizing to Jay-Z 'Who I was in the past is not who I am today,' a man appearing to be Massey begins in the video. 'So I'm asking, please for help. [NBA] YoungBoy, Meek Mill … People that been through the system that know it's corrupt. Lil Wayne, Donald Trump, please, I'm asking for help … When I get back in custody, I'm asking y'all please to come and help me.' He continued: 'I'm letting y'all know I'm not a raper, man. I'm not none of that. None of that. I'm a good person. I am a father that want to be in my children's life … I want to let the younger you know that going down the route of trying to be a street person is not the route.' Neither the rappers nor Trump have responded to Massey's video, which the Louisiana State Police has been made aware of. According to Baton Rouge ABC affiliate WBRZ, Massey was arrested in March on charges of domestic abuse battery and vehicle theft, and that he was also wanted for suspicion of rape and kidnapping in St. Tammany Parrish. At the time of his escape, he had not entered a plea yet. 'If the individual depicted in the video is indeed Antoine Massey, we strongly urge him to come forward and turn himself in to the proper authorities,' said Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson in a statement. 'Cooperating with law enforcement is in his best interest and may help avoid additional charges. It is important that justice is served appropriately and that due process is followed.' This isn't Massey's first reported escape either. According to local CBS affiliate 4WWL, Massey and five others broke out of the Juvenile Justice Intervention Center in 2007. He also escaped from Morehouse Detention Center in 2019. Orleans Justice Center maintenance worker Sterling Williams was reportedly arrested on felony charges for facilitating the May prison break. CBS affiliate KFVS12 in Cape Girardeau, Mo., reports that Williams claimed that Massey threatened to stab him if he didn't take part in helping the escape. The Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office also said the inmates' jail break may have been helped by 'defective locks,' the outlet reported. Of the 10 fugitives, Massey and Derrick Groves are the final two inmates remaining at large. There's a $50,000 reward being offered for information leading to their apprehension. Billboard has reached out to the Orleans Police Department and the White House for comment.

Cynthia Erivo Reveals How She Approached Elphaba Differently in ‘Wicked: For Good': ‘She's Delicious'
After her massive breakthrough as Elphaba in 2024's Wicked, Cynthia Erivo is giving fans a taste of what's to come in the film's final chapter this fall. In her Billboard cover story published Monday (June 2), Erivo teases what fans can expect from her green-skinned heroine in Wicked: For Good, the much-anticipated second part of the film due out this November. 'Elphaba in act one, or film one, it's head and heart … Elphaba in act two is head, sacral,' Erivo tells Billboard Pride editor Stephen Daw, explaining her use of chakras to differentiate Elphaba's transformation across the two films. 'It's grounded. It's really earthy, feet-on-the-ground. She's able to access her rage more.' More from Billboard Cynthia Erivo Opens Up About Her Queerness: 'The More Yourself You Are, The Better Understanding Starts to Happen' From Kosas to Drunk Elephant, These Celeb-Loved Sunscreens Are a Must-Have to Protect Your Skin This Summer Turn Back Time With Cher's Biographical Children's Book Available for Pre-Order Now That change in her gravity-defying character also meant Erivo had to take a different approach to portraying her while filming. 'The scent I wore changed. The makeup changed,' she explains. 'Little shifts that bring you to a more mature version of who Elphaba becomes. And she is delicious in this next one.' The upcoming film will look to replicate the breakout success of its predecessor, which went on to become the highest grossing film adaptation of a musical, earned 10 Oscar nominations (including a best actress nom for Erivo) and scored a No. 2 debut on the Billboard 200 with its soundtrack. 'The cast was like, 'Oh, so it's just in the ether now? People are just listening to it on their way to work at this point?'' Erivo says of the soundtrack's success in particular. 'It's really wonderful.' The interview comes just ahead of the release of Erivo's sophomore LP, I Forgive You (out Friday, June 6 via Verve and Republic Records), which sees the singer exploring uncharted new territory as a performer. As she tells to Billboard, her Wicked co-star Ariana Grande helped connect her with Republic Records' chairwoman and chief creative officer Wendy Goldstein to help make her LP shine. 'Wendy is a very singular human being who just gets it,' she says of meeting Goldstein. 'It was the first time that everything became really clear. To have someone who understands who you are as a musician and a singer and an artist was just a new experience within this space for me as an artist.'

‘Wicked: For Good' Trailer Gets a Release Date as New Film Poster Is Unveiled
Good news! Fans are finally getting their first looks at Wicked: For Good, with Universal Pictures announcing the release date of its first trailer while unveiling the film's poster Wednesday (May 14). As revealed first on the official Wicked Instagram account, the sequel's official poster finds leading ladies Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande — who portray Elphaba and Glinda in the live-action musical duology, respectively — looking stoic as they stare each other down while standing on opposing rocky cliffs separated by a deep ravine. At the bottom, the franchise's famous Yellow Brick Road leads the way to the Emerald City, which looms on the horizon in the center. More from Billboard Everything We Know About 'Wicked: For Good' (So Far) How to Watch 'Poker Face' Season 2: Ways to Stream Natasha Lyonne's Hit Series Online Beyoncé Nods to 'Cowboy Carter' Track With New Levi's Tee Collab With a 'Levii's' Rebrand 'You will be changed,' reads text on the poster, a play on the lyrics to Elphaba and Glinda's 'For Good' duet from the Wicked Broadway musical, on which the films were based. The poster offers fans their first visual of the sequel to Jon M. Chu's first Wicked film, which hit theaters in November 2024 and has so far grossed $755.4 million worldwide — more than any other film adaptation of a Broadway musical — as of Monday (May 12). It also shows Erivo and Grande's characters in brand new outfits, with the former embracing her persona as the Wicked Witch of the West in her signature pointy hat and an edgy black coat that billows out behind her, while the latter wears a tiara and multicolored ballgown. But while the artwork is all viewers get for now of Wicked: For Good, they'll soon get their first proper view of the November-slated installment. Shortly after unveiling the poster, the Wicked Instagram account announced that the sequel's trailer will premiere in theaters on June 4 as the first film returns to the big screen for one night only in the United States and Canada. 'We know you've been waiting for this, and it's finally coming,' Erivo says in a video sharing the news, standing next to the 'Positions' singer. 'You will be changed …,' adds Grande before the Pinocchio star finishes, 'For good.' Tickets for Wicked's single-night return to theaters are on sale now. The announcement comes just two days after NBC revealed that a Wicked event special featuring Grande, Erivo and some 'special guests' would both air on the network and stream on Peacock in November. Modeling the arc of Act II in the Wicked stage musical, For Good is expected to pick up during the aftermath of the events of the first film. Elphaba is forced into hiding after the Wizard of Oz (portrayed by Jeff Goldblum) convinces the realm that she's, well, wicked. Meanwhile Glinda assumes her role as people's princess and government mouthpiece in the absence of her best frenemy. 'It gets messy,' Chu told Variety of the sequel's plot in January. 'I think if [audience members] are following the emotions of this movie, they'll walk with us.' See the new Wicked: For Good poster and trailer announcement below.
