After sharing his “6 Rings” track in honor of Kobe Bryant earlier this year, Bad Bunny continues his strong year with a bit of a surprise. Following the memoriam track, Bunny would later join PartyNextDoor and Drake for a remix of “Loyal” before sharing his Yo Hago Lo Que Me Da La Gana album with the world. The album grew to become the highest-charting Spanish language album ever as it debuted at No. 2 on the albums charts, but just a little over 2 months after releasing YHLQMDLG, Bad Bunny returns with another album.
Standing as his fourth album, Bad Bunny returns with Las Que No Iban a Salir which translates to The Ones That Were Not Coming Out. The album arrives after he previewed new music during a thrilling Instagram livestream that saw 320,000 viewers at one point along with appearances from Drake and Tory Lanez. Equipped with ten songs, Las Que No Iban a Salir sees guest appearances from Nicky Jam, Don Omar, Zion & Lennox, Yandel, Gabriela, and Jhay Cortez.
The album arrives a little over a month after Bad Bunny delivered a strong message in their video for “Yo Perreo Sola” song. A song written from a woman’s perspective, Bad Bunny dressed up in drag for the video in order to get the full experience of a woman, letting viewers know at its conclusion: “If she doesn’t want to dance with you, respect her, she twerks alone.”
Las Que No Iban a Salir is out now via Rimas Entertainment. Get it here.
Adding to a difficult weekend for the music world, legendary R&B singer Betty Wright has died at the age of 66. Tracking back to the late 1960s, Wright began her career at the age of 14 when she released her first album, My First Time Around, where she earned her first top-40 hit, “Girls Can’t Do What the Guys Do.”
Throughout her career, she delivered a number of R&B hits including “Let Me Be Your Lovermaker,” “Shoorah Shoorah,” “Tonight is the Night,” and “Where is the Love.” With her niece Chaka Khan confirming her death to TMZ, a cause of death has yet to be revealed.

Khan first alluded to a possible health concern with Wright on May 2 after she tweeted, “Calling all my #PrayWarriors. My beloved sister, Betty Wright @MsBettyWright, is now in need of all your prayers.”
After her success in the 1980s, Wright would go on to start her own music label, Mrs. B Records, becoming the first female artist to do so. It was there where she recorded “No Pain (No Gain)” and “Mother Wit,” with the latter attaining a gold certification and making her the first female African American singer to go gold on their own label. Throughout her career, Wright earned six Grammy nominations and won the award once in 1975 for “Where Is The Love” under the Best Rhythm & Blues Song category.
Sharing nearly five decades of albums with the world, Wright became an influence to so many in music as names like Mary J. Blige, Beyonce, SWV, Tupac, Aaliyah, and Chance The Rapper sampling her work in their music.
