Grammy-winning pop superstar Doja Cat has announced a massive run of 2026 dates for her “Tour Ma Vie World Tour,” spanning Latin America, Europe, the U.K. and North America. The 2026 leg of the tour, promoted by Live Nation, follows previously announced 2025 stops across Australia, New Zealand and Asia later this fall and winter. The extensive world tour marks the artist’s largest-ever outing and her first time headlining in multiple international regions, including Latin America.

The 2026 tour is set to kick off in São Paulo, Brazil, at Suhai Music Hall, before heading to major cities including Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Dublin, London, Lisbon, Paris, Chicago, Denver, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami and Toronto. The run will conclude with a headline performance at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Dec. 1, 2026.

The tour supports Doja Cat’s highly anticipated fifth studio album, Vie, which was released last week via Kemosabe Records/RCA Records. Alongside the album drop, the artist unveiled the music video for her new track, “Gorgeous.” Directed and shot by Bardia Zeinali in New York City, the video features appearances by high-profile models and creatives, including former Maxim cover star Irina Shayk, Yseult, Paloma Elsesser, Alex Consani, Amelia Gray, Ugbad, Ida Heiner, Mona Tougaard, Alek Wek and Karen Elson.

Doja Cat recently performed her single “Jealous Type” at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, featuring soft jazz saxophonist Kenny G. She first teased the song in her Summer ‘25 campaign with Marc Jacobs. Last year, she released her deluxe album Scarlet 2 CLAUDE, which included the chart-topping singles “Attention,” “Paint The Town Red” and “Agora Hills.” “Paint The Town Red” spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, becoming the first rap song to reach the top spot in 2023. “Agora Hills” peaked at No. 7 on the Hot 100 and reached No. 1 on Top 40 Radio in 2024.

Olivia Rodrigo is getting into the book publishing game. The pop superstar’s recently concluded “Guts” world tour saw her headline 97 arena shows in North America, Asia, Australia, Europe and South America on an globe-trotting trek that featured openers Chappell Roan, St. Vincent, Remi Wolf, The Breeders and more. The 22-year-old phenom spotlighted her childhood alt-rock favorites onstage, performing “Just Like Heaven” and “Friday I’m in Love” with The Cure’s Robert Smith at Glastonbury and jamming with Weezer during her headlining set at Lollapalooza by running through “Buddy Holly” and “Say It Ain’t So.”

Rodrigo recently announced she’ll be immortalizing those memories with the upcoming Guts World Tour Book, a 136-page hardcover volume housed inside a die-cut slipcase with a raised metallic foil star on the cover. The book, which is slated to ship on September 26, promises to give fans an “inside look at the GUTS world tour, including never-before-seen images, exclusive poster, commemorative tour trading card” and more. The $38 book also boasts a red ribbon bookmark and a double-sided sticker sheet.

Announcing her book on social media, Rodrigo wrote, “GUTS has been such a special chapter for me & I can’t thank u enough for being part of it. i’ve put together a special book 2 commemorate all our GUTS tour memories and it’s available for preorder now! miss y’all already.”

Thirty years after releasing two of classic New York hip-hop’s most influential albums, the Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon and Mobb Deep’s Havoc are teaming up for a joint tour to celebrate the anniversaries of their landmark 1995 records. The month-long U.S. trek will feature a single set with performances by both artists, commemorating Raekwon’s solo debut, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…, and Mobb Deep’s breakthrough album, The Infamous.

Raekwon, a founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan, released his solo debut to widespread critical acclaim. Produced by The RZA and heavily featuring fellow Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah, Cuban Linx is considered one of the greatest solo efforts by a Wu-Tang rapper. Debuting at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, it was later certified gold and ranks among the most beloved hip-hop releases of that era.

For Mobb Deep, The Infamous was a second chance after their 1993 debut, Juvenile Hell, was met with a lukewarm reception. The album, featuring raw and gritty rhymes from the late Prodigy, launched the rap duo to street stardom with classic bangers like “Shook Ones Pt. II” and “Survival of the Fittest,” debuting at No. 18 on the Billboard 200.

The joint old-school hip-hop tour kicks off in Portland, Oregon, on November 13 and concludes in Miami on December 15. Tickets go on sale on Friday, August 15, at 10 a.m. local time at LiveNation.com.

Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” world tour has officially been named the highest-grossing in country music. The tour, which concluded earlier this month, amassed more than $350 million in ticket sales across its 75 dates worldwide, according to figures released by Live Nation this week.

The staggering financial achievement underscores the immense cultural and economic power of the “Cowboy Carter” juggernaut, which saw the Houston-born superstar delve into country music roots. The tour drew sold-out crowds in major cities across North America, Europe and Asia, and averaged more than $4.6 million per show.

Released back in March, the Cowboy Carter album itself was also a critical and commercial triumph, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and sparking widespread debate about inclusivity in country music. Bey’s previous “Renaissance” tour reportedly grossed $579 million, becoming the highest-grossing outing by a woman at that time, and helping her become the first American artist to have two separate tours gross over $400 million each, according to Uproxx.

But while Beyoncé’s worldwide Beyhive of devoted fans have led her to country music tour dominance, fellow global superstar Taylor Swift still holds the all-time concert gross record. Swift’s “Eras Tour,” which wrapped up in December 2024, became the first music tour in history to surpass a mind-boggling $2 billion in concert revenue.

The Land Rover Defender, a name synonymous with rugged capability and sophisticated design, is turning up the volume. The beloved British SUV brand just launched the Defender Octa Black, an even bolder limited edition version of its high-performance 4×4, alongside an announcement that Defender is the official automotive partner for the Oasis Live ’25 global reunion tour.

The Defender Octa, already lauded as a master of performance on and off-road, has embraced a decidedly more menacing persona with the Octa Black. This isn’t just a touch of dark trim; it’s an immersive blacked-out reimagining that’s been meticulously applied to 30 exterior elements to elevate its luxury look to unprecedented levels.

“There’s no denying the presence and purpose of Defender Octa: it’s the tallest and widest Defender, enabling it to tackle even more extreme terrain,” said Mark Cameron, Managing Director of Defender, in a statement announcing the pitch-black beauty. “The introduction of Defender Octa Black takes things up a notch. We know our clients love giving their Defenders all-black finishes, so our designers have applied this principle to every possible surface—inside and out—to create the ultimate tough luxury Defender Octa.”

The foundation of this dramatic aesthetic is Narvik Black, the truest black in the Defender paint palette. This deep, dark, gloss-finished hue comes standard, but for those seeking an even stealthier look, an optional Matte Protective Film offers a personalized touch. The front undershield and rear scuff plates sport a Satin Black Powder Coat finish, complemented by exposed recovery eyes in the same hue.

Contrasting elements like a Gloss Black tow eye cover at the front and Gloss Black quad exhaust tips at the rear provide striking visual accents. Even the iconic Land Rover oval on the grille is rendered in black with darkened silver script, while underbody elements, including the exhaust silencer and center box covers, are finished in either Gloss or Satin Black. The Octa Black offers a choice of 20-inch forged wheels or 22-inch Gloss Black wheels, both featuring black center caps and Shadow Atlas Defender script. Gloss Black brake calipers with contrasting Sentient Silver script complete the foreboding exterior.

Step inside the Defender Octa Black, and the theme of “tough luxury” continues with a dramatic flair. For the first time in a Defender, Ebony Semi-Aniline Leather with Kvadrat graces the interior, providing a tactile finish to the Performance Seats. These seats feature unique perforation patterns and new stitching details on the backrests. Even the seat backs and armrest hinges are finished in Carpathian Grey, ensuring every element contributes to the bold and refined cabin. The Cross Car Beam across the dashboard is finished in Satin Black Powder Coat, and for the ultimate expression of rough-and-tumble luxury, an optional Chopped Carbon Fiber finish is available for interior details.

Beyond its striking aesthetics, the $152,000 Defender Octa Black retains the formidable performance capabilities that define the Octa line. It’s powered by a 626 horsepower V8 engine, delivering exhilarating power on any terrain. The innovative 6D Dynamics suspension ensures unparalleled control and comfort, while a dedicated Octa Mode optimizes the vehicle for extreme off-road adventures.

But perhaps the most intriguing feature for music lovers is the integration of Body and Soul Seats (BASS). Developed in partnership with industry leader Subpac, this immersive high-fidelity vibro-acoustic technology allows passengers in the front row Performance Seats to actually feel the music they’re listening to, not just hear it.

Utilizing audio signals from the powerful 700-watt, 15-speaker, Meridian Surround Sound System, BASS incorporates the same AI optimizing software used by the world’s top recording artists and composers, promising an unparalleled auditory experience. The Octa Black also benefits from recent enhancements across the entire Defender line-up, including a crisp new headlight design with a revised signature graphic and flush rear lights with smoked lenses. Inside, a new 13.1-inch touchscreen provides even more intuitive infotainment control. The Defender Octa Black joins the standard Defender Octa, which is now available in new colorways—Sargasso Blue and Borasco Grey—in addition to Charente Grey and Petra Copper.

Defender also announced an official partnership with Oasis Live ’25. Oasis will be transported on their highly anticipated 41-date global tour by a fleet of Defenders as part of a brand deal with the iconic British automaker. The tour kicked off July 4 in Cardiff, Wales and continues with shows in other UK cities before expanding to North America, Asia, Australia, and South America.  Check out the North American tour teaser video above.

Queens of the Stone Age have announced the Catacombs Tour, a limited run of intimate performances at historic North American theaters this fall. The 11-date stretch of shows begins on October 2 in Chicago and wraps up on November 21 in New Orleans after stops in Detroit, Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Toronto, Los Angeles and other major cities.

The Catacombs Tour was inspired by the acclaimed heavy rock outfit’s Alive in the Catacombs concert film, which was released earlier this month. Filmed and recorded in July 2024 in the ancient subterranean Catacombs of Paris, the film features intricately reimagined versions of songs spanning the QOTSA discography performed in a haunting and unique setting.

The upcoming tour will feature “all-new arrangements crafted specifically for the occasion,” according to a press release about the trek. The Josh Homme-fronted rockers will “draw upon the spirit of those sublime subterranean renditions and infuse it into reimagined versions that promise to twist the volume knob in both directions. Enhanced by assembled ensembles, the end result will be a precious few unique and intimate performances unlike any previous QOTSA tour.”

Check out the concert film’s trailer and QOTSA 2025 North American tour dates below.

Fresh off his electrifying performances at Coachella and Stagecoach, rising country star Shaboozey has announced his first headlining tour, the Great American Roadshow, scheduled for Fall 2025. The “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” hitmaker revealed the 12-city trek this week.

The Live Nation-produced tour kicks off September 22 at the Egyptian Room at Old National Centre in Indianapolis. From there, Shaboozey hits major cities across the eastern and southern United States, including Detroit, Philadelphia, and Virginia Beach. The show then heads further south to Nashville, Birmingham, New Orleans, Houston and Fort Worth, before making its way through Florida with gigs in St. Petersburg, Fort Lauderdale, and culminating in Orlando on October 16 at the House of Blues.

Shaboozey’s tour announcement follows a red hot steak of success for the genre-bending singer, who was widely rumored to have dated supermodel Emily Ratajkowski last year. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” broke the record for most weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Radio Songs chart. Shaboozey also made history as the first-ever artist to have a single break the top 10 across all four charts: Country Airplay, Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay, and Rhythmic Airplay, and he’s the first-ever Black male artist to top both the Billboard Hot 100 and Country Songs Charts.

Highlighted by the recent release of the expanded edition of his 2024 breakthrough album, Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, the dreadlocked crooner is capitalizing on his massive success in the pop country game. The album’s new complete edition features six new tracks, including collaborations with prominent artists such as Jelly Roll on “Amen,” Myles Smith on “Blink Twice,” and Sierra Ferrell on “Hail Mary.” The 18-track collection also includes the previously released single “Good News,” as well as new additions “Fire and Gasoline” and “Chrome.”

Tickets for the Great American Roadshow will be available through a series of pre-sales. An artist pre-sale begins April 29, followed by local pre-sales on April 30. Spotify users can access a pre-sale starting May 1, while general public seats go on-sale beginning May 2.

Hip-hop legend and actor Ice Cube is set to serve up classic tracks from a storied 40-year-career during his newly announced North American tour launching this fall. The 22-date “Truth to Power: 4 Decades of Attitude” run kicks off September 4 at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and wraps up on October 9 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. The tour is being billed as Ice Cube’s first domestic coast-to-coast tour in more than a decade.

“Truth to Power is more than a tour—it’s a 40-year celebration,” Ice Cube said in a statement. “The world needs truth. The people need power. And that’s what my music brings. It’s gonna be next level to go from city to city with a major production unlike anything I’ve ever done before.”

Last year, the former NWA rapper released a new album, Man Down, marking his eleventh solo album and first since 2018’s Everythang’s Corrupt. In between those two projects, his rap supergroup Mount Westmore—with Snoop Dogg, E-40, and Too $hort, who recently performed at Maxim’s music festival-themed party in Palm Springs—released their debut album, Snoop Cube 40 $hort.

Tickets for Ice Cube’s “Truth to Power” trek go on sale April 18, while a fan club presale starts April 16. Check out his North American tour dates below.

Teyana Taylor, who topped Maxim’s annual Hot 100 list in June, says she’s calling it quits on her music career after releasing three albums.

The singer/dancer/entrepreneur announced her farewell shows on Instagram.

“How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard,” she wrote, while announcing her farewell shows, titled “The Last Rose Petal.” “However for every goodbye, God makes the next hello closer.”

The 30-year-old Harlem native kicks off her final 12-city tour on Nov. 7 in San Francisco, with stops in Los Angeles, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Detroit and New York City. Her final performance will be in Atlanta on Nov. 30.

“Come out and watch me leave it all out on the stage” Taylor added. “One last time.”

Last year, Taylor revealed her plans to retire from music on Instagram Live  after complaining about a lack of promotion from her record label, G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam, per the New York Daily News. 

“I gotta do it for my mental health. I have to do it for my emotional health. I have to do it for my kids, so I can stay alive for my kids,” she said. “Until I’m free, until I can get [my label] to release me, yes I want to retire. I don’t want to do this anymore.”

She later clarified that the announcement was a “warning” to music executives, saying “I constantly feel alone, I’m constantly feel under-appreciated, I constantly feel failed…there is literally no push.”

The “Rose in Harlem” singer, who currently stars on the E! reality show “We Got Love Teyana & Iman” with NBA star husband Iman Shumpert, will now reportedly focus on her role as Creative Director of the fashion company PrettyLittleThing.

Fleetwood Mac is far from done. The legendary rockers have lost singer and guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, but they’ve got plenty of concerts and screaming fans left.

Buckingham replacement Mike Campbell and singer Neil Finn are able replacements, though: Campbell played with Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers and Finn sang with Crowded House.

If you wondered why Buckingham split, it’s not too hard to figure out. A Rolling Stone article made it pretty clear they didn’t exactly want him around anymore:

Nobody in the group is quite willing to say Buckingham was “fired,” but they don’t completely object to the term. “Words like ‘fired’ are ugly references as far as I’m concerned,” says Fleetwood. “Not to hedge around, but we arrived at the impasse of hitting a brick wall. This was not a happy situation for us in terms of the logistics of a functioning band. To that purpose, we made a decision that we could not go on with him. Majority rules in term of what we need to do as a band and go forward.” Buckingham did not respond to multiple requests for comment for this story

Fired but not fired, basically.

The band’s tour schedule is on the front page of their website. They begin on October 3rd in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 

If you’re ready to get your fill of a revived and Lindsey-free Fleetwood Mac, you can buy tickets  at FleetwoodMac.com beginning May 4th at 10 am.
