Mariah Carey releases new single 'Type Dangerous,' confirms 16th album is coming
Mariah Carey is officially back. The singer has just released the new song she's been teasing online for several days -- "Type Dangerous" -- and it is indeed the lead single off her 16th studio album, which she also teased. The song samples the hip-hop classic "Eric B. Is President" by Eric B. & Rakim. Carey said in a statement, "I'm so excited to finally be releasing 'Type Dangerous' into the world! I've been locked up in the studio for quite some time working my behind off on new music, and I'm thrilled for the unveiling of it to my fans, starting with 'Type Dangerous!'" Listen to the song here. The song begins with Carey saying, "To show my appreciation for your support, thank you, DJs," which echoes what a female voice says in the beginning of the Eric B. & Rakim song. As she says that, the sampled words "Make 'em clap to this" from "Eric B. Is President" play in the background. Elsewhere on the sassy track, Carey refers to various aspects of her life. "Taking off my coat, clearing my throat / Certified diamonds like the songs I wrote," she says in one line. In another, she croons, "Fresh outta Sing Sing, nah, I'm just playin' / That was just a castle and an evil king," an apparent reference to her former husband Tommy Mottola and the 51-acre estate they shared in Bedford, New York, which she jokingly called Sing Sing after the infamous maximum-security prison in Ossining, New York. A video for the song is set to arrive soon, directed by Joseph Kahn, who was behind the camera for her hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You" video.

Despite recent rumors about a split from his wife, Hailey Bieber, new details confirm that Justin is in a 'healing period.' 'Hailey tries to be there for him as much as she can,' a source told Us Weekly, highlighting how the Baby singer's wife is being patient and supportive during this time.

It has inspired him to focus on healing and reflect on his life with a renewed perspective.

Lady Gaga May Be Just Days Away From Making History
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars scored the hit of a lifetime with 'Die With a Smile' — and that's saying a lot, considering both musicians have already produced dozens of smashes individually. The throwback-sounding duet, released in August 2024, became an instant hit out of the gate. Months later, the track is not only still performing well — it's leading the charge on several Billboard charts. The song still stands out as the biggest in the world, and as it holds on once more, it comes within striking distance of an all-time record. The Gaga/Mars collaboration has now dominated Billboard's ranking of the most-consumed songs throughout the world for 18 nonconsecutive weeks. That feat makes it the second-longest-running No. 1 in the history of the Billboard Global 200, and the cut may soon break the previously-set record. If 'Die With a Smile' can hold on for just one more frame, it will match 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey for the most weeks spent at No. 1. That holiday smash has racked up a total of 19 stays at the summit, with those stints spread out across more than half a decade. The tune returns to the peak position at the end of each year and continues adding to its growing total. The fact that Gaga and Mars have been able to stitch together their 18 weeks at No. 1 in one promotional run — if not in a single streak — speaks to the track's incredible global popularity. 'Die With a Smile' is also in charge of the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., though it still has a way to go before matching the all-time record on that ranking. With 15 frames spent atop the tally, it passes the 14 that 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' managed. However, that tune didn't hold the top showing. That honor belongs to 'Apt.,' a collaboration between Blackpink singer Rosé and, once again, Mars. The track led the list — which excludes sales and streaming data from America and reflects what the rest of the world is consuming — for 19 frames. The two tracks came out around the same time and, for a while, traded the No. 1 spot. If 'Die With a Smile' can remain at the top for another month, it could match 'Apt.' That's a tall order for a tune that has already been out for so many months and has now ruled for 15 weeks, but certainly not impossible.

Lady Gaga Matches Mariah Carey's Record As 'Die With A Smile' Holds At No. 1
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars's 'Die With a Smile' ties Mariah Carey for the second-longest No. 1 reign ... More on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. INDIO, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 11: (FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY) (EXCLUSIVE ACCESS) Lady Gaga performs at the Coachella Stage during the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival at Empire Polo Club on April 11, 2025 in Indio, California. (Photo byfor Coachella) Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars just keep winning with what has turned out to be a career-defining single. Their global smash "Die With a Smile" remains at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. rankings this week, and this frame brings the title to another important milestone. "Die With a Smile" continues its impressive run atop the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., racking up a fourteenth nonconsecutive week at No. 1. With this latest stint, the tune now ties for the second-longest reign in the chart's history. By leading once again, "Die With a Smile" matches the 14-week record previously set by Mariah Carey's holiday favorite "All I Want for Christmas Is You." That track has become a seasonal staple, reclaiming its spot atop the list year after year, but Gaga and Mars's collaboration has managed the feat without the benefit of an annual boost. Gaga and Mars still trail behind another global powerhouse. Blackpink singer Rosé – and Mars' earlier smash "Apt." – maintains the all-time record on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. with an astounding 19 weeks at No. 1. That tune, released in 2024, shattered expectations with its lengthy run at the top — and while "Die With a Smile" is quickly climbing the ranks of the most successful songs ever on this roster, it still has some ground to make up if it wants to catch up. At this pace, "Die With a Smile" is almost certain to hold onto the No. 1 spot next week. If it does, the cut will snag a fifteenth nonconsecutive frame in charge on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., pulling ahead of Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" and claiming sole possession of second place on the all-time list. Carey's festive favorite isn't finished yet, though. When the 2025 holiday season arrives, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" is likely to surge once again — as it does every year — and could very well reclaim the throne. If history repeats itself, the classic could add to its total by the end of 2025 and into early 2026. Even if "Die With a Smile" can fend off any challengers in the coming weeks, it still faces a daunting challenge to tie the all-time leader. The cut would need roughly a month longer at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. to match the 19-week reign set by "Apt.," a goal that feels attainable…but far from guaranteed. Gaga and Mars are also still in charge of the Billboard Global 200 as well. "Die With a Smile" earns its eighteenth week at No. 1 on the worldwide ranking, pushing it just one frame away from matching the all-time record. Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" holds the benchmark, with 19 nonconsecutive weeks spent atop the tally. That makes next week crucial. If "Die With a Smile" can cling to its crown a little longer, it will tie with Carey for the most time spent at No. 1 on the ranking.

Lady Gaga Matches Harry Styles With Another Week At No. 1
Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are two of the most celebrated pop stars on the planet, and when they join forces, it's no surprise the result is a global smash. Their duet 'Die With a Smile' has already been a major win on the charts for months, and it is still hugely popular, living a much longer life on the weekly rankings than most pop tunes could ever hope for. The song is back at No. 1 on both of Billboard's global charts, and while that in itself has been a familiar story all year, this is still a special frame for the cut. 'Die With a Smile' sits steady at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, the ranking of the most-consumed songs across the globe. That list blends streaming and sales data from nearly every territory, and it is widely regarded as the most comprehensive look at what the world is listening to each week. The track has now led the charge for 15 weeks – a historically long period of time. The Billboard Global 200 was introduced less than five years ago, and in that time, only a trio of songs have managed such a lengthy stay at No. 1. With 15 weeks spent at No. 1, 'Die With a Smile' is now tied as the second longest-running leader in the ranking's history, and the non-holiday tune with the most frames in charge. Gaga and Mars match the impressive run of Harry Styles's 'As It Was,' which also controlled the Billboard Global 200 for 15 frames in 2022. The only song that has managed a longer reign on the Billboard Global 200 is 'All I Want for Christmas Is You.' Mariah Carey's modern holiday classic has racked up 19 weeks at No. 1, though that total comes with a small asterisk. Unlike 'Die With a Smile,' Carey's festive anthem hasn't held onto the top spot in one general run – though Gaga and Mars have risen and fallen from the summit on more than one occasion. Instead, it returns to No. 1 every December, adding to its cumulative total year after year. At the same time that 'Die With a Smile' is dominating the Billboard Global 200, it's also back at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. That list tracks the most-consumed songs around the world, excluding American data, using the same blend of streaming and sales figures. This week, the track reverses course on that chart, trading places with another Mars hit, his collaboration with Rosé of Blackpink. As it climbs back into first, 'Die With a Smile' earns its twelfth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. The cut is already the fifth longest-running leader on that ranking, and if it can hold on for just one more week, it will tie two other smashes – Styles's 'As It Was' and Miley Cyrus's 'Flowers' — as the third longest-running leader in the roster's history.
