Sabrina Carpenter has been one of 2024’s biggest stars, and soon, she’ll wrap up her huge year with the release of A Nonsense Christmas With Sabrina Carpenter, a new Netflix special. The program was announced in September, and now we have our first trailer.
Carpenter begins the trailer, “Christmas is coming early this year. I wouldn’t count on a silent night.”
From there, it teases duets with Chappell Roan, Kali Uchis, Tyla, and Shania Twain, as well as guest appearances from Quinta Brunson, Cara Delevingne, Kyle Mooney, Nico Hiraga, Megan Stalter, Sean Astin, Owen Thiele, and Jillian Bell.
It also teases some funny moments, like when Brunson (as the Ghost Of Christmas Present) compliments Carpenter’s (Ghost Of Christmas Past) bangs in front of a man, and she responds, “Thank you! I got them ’cause he ghosted me.” Later, Carpenter holds a buzzing, vibrating box as she says, “Aw, a massager!”
Most crucially, the trailer reveals the special is set to premiere on December 6 at 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT).
The description of the trailer’s YouTube upload reads, “It’s a nonsense holiday and we’re so here for it. In this special with musical guests, pop icon Sabrina Carpenter will perform songs from her holiday EP fruitcake and other iconic chart-topping holiday covers. This special will also feature show-stopping music performances, comedic guests, unexpected duets, plus many more surprises and fun cameos.”
Charli XCX is a self-proclaimed “brat.” But even before she took on that title, the “Apple” singer marched to the beat of her own drum. To demonstrate that unapologetic freedom, yesterday (November 18) Charli XCX let loose in the streets of New York City.
Many fans flocked to the Big Apple to catch Charli XCX’s on Saturday Night Live as the host and musical guest. But not everyone could get their hands on tickets to the beloved late night show.
So, Charli XCX with the backing of H&M put her talents on full display in the middle of Times Square for a surprise free performance of her breakout Brat bangers.
In a video shared to Charli XCX’s official Instagram, she announced the performance leaving followers a few hours to make their way to its location. Photos and clips (viewable here) show that supporters showed up in droves to experience the electronic pop tracks in-person.
According to online fan chatter, Charli XCX’s set featured a performance of the Brat songs “360,” “365,” “Apple,” and “Von Dutch.” Charli XCX also supposedly performed her Brat And It’s Completely Different But Also Still Brat track “Guess,” which features Billie Eilish.
Charli XCX has long since wrapped up her co-headlining Sweat tour with Troye Sivan. But, she has still found a way to fulfill her live show bug.
Brat And It’s Completely Different But Also Still Brat is out now via Atlantic. Find more information here.
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s collaborative relationship goes way back. Next month, rap’s new generation will experience their musical magic on their forthcoming album, Missionary. But for the two hip-hop legends, it all dates back to Death Row Records days.
The legacy label is certainly making a comeback thanks to Snoop Dogg’s purchase of it back in 2022. During a live taping of Drink Champs, Dr. Dre praised his longtime friend’s business decision. While chatting in front of the ComplexCon 2024 Las Vegas Convention Center crowd, Dr. Dre shared his feelings on the acquisition (viewable here, courtesy of HipHopDX).
“Let me tell you something, man. I was so upset when I heard that Snoop was doing the Death Row sh*t at the beginning,” he said. “Like, ‘N****, that shit has so much bullsh*t following it.’”
He continued, saying: “But now, I’m so happy about it and so impressed at what my brother’s doing because he’s taken the thing that we created and brought it back to life. I see his vision now. I appreciate it, and I’m proud of it.”
Moved by Dr. Dre’s semintental comments, Snoop Dogg replied with a touching response. “That made me feel good,” she said. “Thank y’all. Y’all tryna make a n**** cry.”
During a recent interview, André 3000 revealed another surprising fact about the project. While chatting with Touré on his podcast, The Touré Show, André 3000 claimed that his New Blue Sun album will not be credited towards his solo record deal obligations.
“They congratulated me on the process, they congratulated me on what the work was, but contractually, it’s very interesting,” he said. “My label will not count this album against my contract — this is as a solo artist. I didn’t understand it at first, and we tried to find ways around it, but I understand it in a way, too.”
André 3000 went on to explain why his label (Epic) won’t consider it. “In the ’70s artists were trying to get out of their deals so they were just pretty much turning in anything,” he said. “And so you have to have some type of legal stipulation that stops you from doing that…It stops you from turning in 10 tracks of handclaps and saying, ‘This is my album.’ And I get it! But Sylvia and the team, they’ve been so supportive. They know I’m not turning in an a handclap back — they get it. But as a business, this is the stance that they took.”

During the hearing, YoungBoy Never Broke Again reportedly plead guilty to two counts of third-degree felony identity fraud, two counts of third-degree felony forgery and six misdemeanor charges related to unlawful pharmacy conduct.
Initially, YoungBoy Never Broke Again faced 46 felony charges. Eventually they were pled down to multiple misdemeanors. After a result of his plea, YoungBoy Never Broke Again will serve a “substantial” 27-month sentence in federal prison in connected to the federal charges.

YoungBoy has not released a statement regarding the hearing or alleged plea.
Welcome to the Crumbl Cookie report, where every week we buy all eight new cookies dropping at Crumbl and rank them from worst to best. This week is a bit of a mixed bag. Cookies like the Oatmeal Skillet, Pink Velvet Cake, Lemon Cheesecake, and Mint Mallow are visual delights. They look so delicious that a picture alone makes your mouth water. And then there are the other cookies, which look so bland that if you unfocus your eyes just a little bit, you wouldn’t be able to tell the Classic Peanut Butter from the Confetti.
This just further reiterates our opinion that Crumbl moving from a six-cookie lineup to an eight-cookie lineup is a bad move. What have we gotten with this new change? More repeats and somehow less variety! At least having so many cookies makes it easier to zero in on the highlights.
So enough complaining, let’s talk cookies!
8. Classic Peanut Butter
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
I’m just going to come out and say it: Crumbl has too many damn peanut butter cookies. What’s the difference between this week’s Classic Peanut Butter and last month’s Ultimate Peanut Butter? A drizzle of frosting, that’s about it!
This cookie isn’t bad but it’s nothing special either. It’s just a really big, expensive, peanut butter cookie. It’s got one note: peanut butter. If you like peanut butter, you’ll like this cookie, but it’ll still come across as inessential even if peanut butter is your favorite thing on earth.
The Bottom Line:
This is an easy skip. It’s just a regular peanut butter cookie, it’s not going to change your world.
7. Confetti
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
The Confetti cookie offers a sweet, floral, and slightly earthy vanilla base loaded up with flavorless, but appetizing, rainbow sprinkles. Again, this isn’t a bad cookie, but it’s incredibly boring.
A few weeks back, Crumbl dropped a Confetti Cake, and that offered so much more. It was delicious, moist, and super sweet, this cookie on the other hand feels like a drier rendition of that same flavor profile.
The Bottom Line:
We’re sad to say that this is another skip! Crumbl has done this flavor profile in a better form factor in the past.
6. Milk Chocolate Chip
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
While I think it’s pretty boring overall, it’s hard to hate on this cookie. It has a nice balance of brown sugar, butter, and sweet milk chocolate flavors and tastes great warm and fresh out of the oven (or microwave), at room temp, and cold from the fridge.
If you’re getting a six pack and don’t feel like doubling up, this will make a welcome addition when you want something classic yet delicious.
The Bottom Line:
Even though it’s not a draw to bring us into the store, this remains one of our favorite cookies and a great candidate to spend those Crumbl points on.
5. Lemon Cheesecake
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
I’m going to reiterate what I said about last week’s lemon cake here: Lemon, while delicious and appreciated, just isn’t a fall flavor.
During the hotter months, this cookie is going to hit all the right spots no doubt, but there is just something wrong about a lemon cheesecake cookie in the fall. Call us crazy!
The cookie is built on a toasted graham cracker base with tangy and sweet cheesecake frosting, some tart lemon curd, and a lemon slice garnish. The graham crackers sprinkled along the base and frosting add a nice textural element to this cookie that makes it a true delight.
The Bottom Line:
While we think this is best served as a spring or summer cookie, there is no deny that the Lemon Cheesecake is a sweet, tangy, and bright delight.
4. Mint Mallow Sandwich
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
Have you ever eaten an Andes Mint and thought, “I wish I could eat 50 of these?” Well, that’s essentially what the Mint Mallow Sandwich gives you. Between two cocoa-forward chocolate cookies sits a thick layer of mint mousse that together comes across as a giant Andres Mint candy.
What makes this even better than the candy though is the texture. You get a lot of crumbly grit that melts in your mouth with this dusty cookie base. The cookie ends are thick, and the mouse is generous.
The Bottom Line:
Minty, refreshing, and very chocolatey.
3. Pink Velvet Cake
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
The Pink Velvet Cake is essentially Crumbl’s famed Pink Velvet cookie in cake form and this form factor serves the flavor much better. The Pink Velvet cake base is super moist and layered with a thick helping of sweet and sugary vanilla cream cheese frosting, with pink cake crumbles at the top.
If you’re curious about what pink velvet tastes like, imagine red velvet, but less chalky and more vanilla-influenced than the cocoa vibe of red velvet.
The Bottom Line:
Better than Crumbl’s Pink Velvet Cookie. It’s moist, sweet, yet delicate. But be warned, this is the kind of cookie that can handle transit well, so you’re better off eating it as soon as you get it.
2. Churro
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
The churro is simply one of the finest desserts ever. I would even argue that a good churro rivals some of the best cookies out there, so no brand, not even Crumbl, can capture the magic of a churro and put it into cookie form. But dammit do they come close!
The Churro cookie is a winner, it features a sweet, spicy, and earthy cinnamon base with a thick swirl of cinnamon-infused butter cream, dusted with more, you guessed it, cinnamon sugar.
It’s wonderful! It doesn’t taste like a churro and lacks that doughy goodness that its name-sake offers, but the flavor is great, and at the end of the day, concept aside, that’s all that matters.
The Bottom Line:
A great cookie. It’s not quite a churro, but the flavor is too good to deny.
1. Oatmeal Skillet Cookie
Dane Rivera
Thoughts & Tasting Notes:
Our winner this week is the Oatmeal Skillet Cookie. This cookie is f*cking incredible. It features a soft and chewy oatmeal base topped with sweet and fragrant vanilla mousse, a toasty butterscotch drizzle, and crumbles of oatmeal cookies for added texture.
Biting into this thing is pure joy as your taste buds are inundated with the flavors of cinnamon, oat, caramel, vanilla, and brown sugar.
The Bottom Line:
Not just the best Crumbl cookie of the week, but quite possibly the best cookie the brand has dropped all season. Get two!
For years, Christmas Day has been the NBA’s biggest single day on the regular season calendar. The league builds its schedule around putting five marquee matchups on Christmas, and for a long time, they only faced NFL competition when Dec. 25 fell on a Sunday.
However, the NFL has played games on Christmas each of the past four years, and the big ratings they received were too tantalizing to go back to the way things were. After insisting that they wouldn’t put games on Christmas when it lands on a Tuesday or Wednesday, the NFL changed course when Netflix came calling, offering hundreds of millions of dollars to broadcast a pair of NFL Christmas games each of the next three years. That was the NFL officially ending their détente with the NBA over Christmas, and making clear that they weren’t going to cede the holiday back to basketball.
If that wasn’t enough, the NFL decided to run up the score on the NBA over the weekend, announcing late Sunday night that Beyoncé will perform at halftime of the Ravens-Texans game in her hometown of Houston. The one thing the NBA has going for it over the NFL on Christmas is that they are on linear television, with games on ABC and ESPN, while the NFL is on a streamer (albeit the largest one there is). As we have seen with Thursday Night Football and playoff games on Peacock, there is a pretty sizable drop-off in viewership for similar marquee NFL games from linear TV to streaming. However, the way to get more people over there is to give the non-football fans a reason to want to tune-in, and a Beyoncé halftime show is a sure-fire way to add some serious attention.
NBA fans and media have called on the league to fight back and reclaim their place as the Christmas headliner, but the truth is, there’s just nothing to do when the NFL decides to plant its flag. The NBA could put together its absolute best teams and have every star healthy, get Drake and Kendrick Lamar to squash their beef at midcourt during halftime, and they would barely put a dent in the ratings for the worst possible NFL game. Add in the fact that the NFL has a pair of really good games this year — Chiefs-Steelers and Ravens-Texans — and there’s just no chance for the NBA to get its corner fully back.
Being able to add a Super Bowl-caliber halftime performer (Beyoncé literally did one back in 2013) to the Christmas slate is just another example of the NFL’s embarrassment of riches. Could the NBA try and do more to add some cultural cache to their Christmas games? Sure, they could look at adding a performer in one of the marquee games, but halftime in NBA games is shorter than in the NFL, limiting the time on a performance (and for a performance set-up). That limits what you can do, and they’re just not going to get someone at the level of Beyoncé in that same spot — it doesn’t hurt the NFL that Beyoncé’s husband, Jay-Z curates the NFL’s Super Bowl halftime shows.
The reality is, the NBA can’t consider the NFL a direct competitor and instead needs to figure out how they can best serve the audience that would pick watching basketball over football. There is nowhere to hide from the NFL at this point. If there is money to be made and ratings to be had, the NFL has made it very clear they will be there to scoop up as much cash and as many eyeballs as they can. The NBA has tried moving off Thursdays until the NFL season ends, and held off on marquee showcase games on weekends until after football — it’s just not worth trying to challenge the NFL’s ratings superiority, particularly when there are nights when the NFL doesn’t air games. The question for the NBA now has to be, will they let their Christmas schedule become the latest casualty?
They still have some advantages in being on ABC and ESPN rather than Netflix, but the NFL moving off TV also makes it harder to benefit from the potential for fans to bounce back-and-forth because that involves the added barrier of exiting one app and opening another. As such, the best way forward isn’t to try and beat the NFL at their own game, as that’s not possible. Instead, the NBA has to keep looking at how to create the best basketball product and present that to their audience, while figuring out how to sustainably build their fan base.
The NFL, put simply, doesn’t have to worry about the same things the NBA does right now. They can send a Giants-Panthers game, featuring two of the worst teams in the league, overseas and sell it out while millions stateside wake up and tune in. They can withstand injuries and star absences and still clean up, as tens of millions of people are going to watch Cooper Rush vs. Tommy DeVito on Thanksgiving, while the NBA faces huge backlash for the same thing.
That’s because football is king in the United States. For as much as people want to come up with a magic fix that will make the NBA suddenly explode in popularity to be alongside the NFL, that just doesn’t exist because they aren’t playing football. As such, all they can do is focus on themselves and figure out what they can do to make the product as appealing as they can, with a focus on those who want to watch basketball. They can still go up against the NFL and do well on Christmas — last year was the least-watched NBA Christmas on record, and it was still their biggest viewership day of the season. The real challenge is how they build their basketball base, because you aren’t going to win a battle for casual eyeballs going up against the NFL, and especially the NFL plus Beyoncé.
As such, the NBA has to ignore the proverbial scoreboard between them and the NFL on Christmas. It’s a fight they will never win, but also, it doesn’t have to be viewed as a fight, even though on Dec. 26, there will inevitably be dozens of posts about how the NFL dusted the NBA in ratings, with a massive peak surely coming around the time of Beyoncé’s performance. But the NBA just can’t worry about that, because the NFL beats everyone and everything in the ratings game.
Instead, they have to keep the focus on the basketball and what they can do to get the best product on the court, all while accepting that the NFL is a ratings behemoth and adjusting expectations accordingly. There isn’t a quick fix that suddenly closes that gap, but one also shouldn’t be seen as necessary from the league’s point of view, because they have an 11-year, $76 billion national TV deal locked in. ESPN will certainly want to explore avenues to boost viewership — that’s their job — but the league should be taking the long view here, and that means ignoring the idea that they should be competing in the same weight class as the NFL and figuring out instead how to entertain basketball fans.
Once the NFL season ends, the NBA still becomes the biggest game in town. It doesn’t pull in football numbers (because, again, nothing does), but the Finals still pull in 10+ million viewers a game even in a down year, and there’s plenty of interest in the playoffs. I’m loathe to agree with arguments that the sky is falling and the NBA is in some terrible position in terms of people not wanting to watch basketball anymore. That said, if they are going to keep an 82-game schedule (which naturally makes each game less intriguing than a 17-game schedule like the NFL has where, every game feels vital to your chances at the playoffs) that starts in football season, they have to figure out how to raise the value of those games for the viewer, and that starts with raising their value to the players.
The NBA Cup is a great example of that, as they’ve gotten the buy-in from the players necessary to give November and December basketball some stakes that it previously lacked, and the result has been really fun basketball. The Christmas Day games also still matter to players, even if they’re no longer in a complete standalone spot on the sports calendar, but the truth is, the NBA has to be even smarter about who they put on the Christmas schedule. They can’t risk a repeat of last year’s Heat-Sixers game without Joel Embiid or Jimmy Butler, which made that the least-watched Christmas game in history, and this year they seem to have learned a lesson, pairing a team whose interest is driven by a single star (the Spurs with Victor Wembanyama) against a legacy franchise (the Knicks) that have a built-in floor for viewership.
I also think the NBA can look at this as an opportunity now to take some swings, knowing the NFL is going to hold casual eyeballs, and give some up-and-coming teams (say, the Thunder) a little bit of shine in hopes of delivering better games. Bank on better basketball to bring people in, rather than just hoping for star power, especially as the generation led by LeBron James, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant that has always been able to bring in eyeballs ages out. And of course, try to provide a highly-competitive game for your basketball diehards to enjoy, because who knows? If the NFL game is a dud, you might even get people flipping over once Beyoncé steps off the stage.
Sometimes the best new R&B can be hard to find, but there are plenty of great rhythm-and-blues tunes to get into if you have the time to sift through the hundreds of newly released songs every week. So that R&B heads can focus on listening to what they love in its true form, we’ll be offering a digest of the best new R&B songs that fans of the genre should hear every Friday.
Since the last update of this weekly R&B column, we’ve received plenty of music and news from the genre’s artists.
Here are the new releases you need to have your eye on this week:
FLO — Access All Areas: Unlocked
FLO long-awaited debut album is finally here. The British girl group released Access All Areas: Unlocked complete with 21 songs and features from GloRilla, Chloe x Halle, Kehlani, Bree Runaway, and DIXSON. Access All Areas: Unlocked will certainly fulfill the appetite of fans thanks to strong production and an impressive vocal performance from Stella, Jorja, and Reneé.
Highlights: “Soft,” “On & On,” & “Bending My Rules”
Jessie Reyez — “Just Like That” Feat. Ari Lennox
Jessie Reyez continues her productive 2024 year with yet another collaboration. “Just Like That” arrives with a guest verse from Ari Lennox as the two singers recover from heartbreak with the sultry, honest, and sweet record.
Mahalia — “Pick Up The Pace” Feat. Bayka
Mahalia is ending the year on an upbeat note with her new record “Pick Up The Pace.” The track features Jamaican artist Bayka for the track that is a reggae-influence tune meant to “celebrate artists like Bayka – these incredible Jamaican voices – and give the U.K. a moment to reconnect with the dancehall and reggae that helped shape our sound,” as revealed by Billboard.
Nao — “Elevate”
Nao continues to give us plenty of reasons to be excited about her upcoming album Jupiter. Her new single “Elevate” is another example as she glides over sky-scraping synths and a groovy bass line for a record that reflects on the surreal moments of life.
Tiana Major9 — “Alone”
British singer Tiana Major9 has one of the best voices you’ll hear today and it’s evident thanks to her new record “Alone.” The song is evocative and intense as Tiana recalls the feelings she had while living alone for the first time in her life. “‘Alone’ is such a vulnerable offering to the world, through the lyrics, my vocal performance,” she said in a press release. It feels like a re-introduction to Tiana Major9 and an exclusive look into the world of TM9.”
Odeal — Lustropolis
Fresh off a new deal with LVRN (home of 6lack, Summer Walker, and more), singer and producer Odeal returns with his new EP Lustropolis. The 7-track delivers one guest appearance from Summer Walker. “Lustropolis is the culmination of all the music I’ve created over 2024
Following a career filled with strong singles and EPs, including 2021’s Digital Tears, Eritrean-born and Amsterdam-based singer RIMON finally emerges with her debut album. Children Of The Night graces the ears of listeners with 12 tracks and features from Dylan Sinclair, Mereba, and BEAM. RIMON impresses from start to finish on the album thanks to records that are ethereal, vengeful, and elegant.
Highlights: “Children Of The Night,” “Hotel Ruby,” & “All In My Mind”
Raiche — Making My Room
Less than a year after releasing Loveland, Massachusetts-bred singer Raiche is back with another project. Making My Room is a shorter project with just five songs to its name, but it’s still a strong effort from Raiche nonetheless. I realized I have the power to restructure my thinking and change any relationship,” Raiche said about the project in a press release. “I learned you can be like, ‘I want to be happy today,’ and be happy.”
Highlights: “Thinking Of You” & “Burn Your Clothes”
Felix Ames — “Loose Ends & New Friends” Feat. Dende
Milwaukee singer Felix Ames teams up with Houston native Dende for their new collab “Loose Ends & New Friends.” The somber record touches on the realization that a new love interest only had short-term intentions for a romance they hoped to be long-term.
Destin Conrad — “Nosebleed”
Destin Conrad is still hard at work on his upcoming debut album, but that isn’t stopping him from treating his fans to new music. He released “Nosebleeds” as a sweet and soft offering to hold listeners down in the meantime. The acoustic-leaning record speaks to Destin’s vulnerability and the occasional emergence of old habits and signs of the past.
Chase Shakur — “2OfUs”
Chase Shakur has young love on his mind and it runs wild and free on his new track “2OfUs.” It’s another sign of what’s to come with the Atlanta singer as he continues work on his upcoming album, but for now, we can enjoy “2OfUs” and the sweet blend of R&B, soul, funk, and rap.
Shantel May — Triggered, But Here
Toronto singer Shantel May checks in with her new album Triggered, But Here. The project is her first full-length release since her 2021 effort Don’t Let Them See You Cry. This time around her, May gives us 17 tracks and features Lola Brooke, Ambré, Rain 910, Maliibu Miitch, and Tone Stith.
Highlights: “Fiend,” “The Call” Feat. Ambré & “Rotation”
Loony — The Lost Tapes
Loony made a great discovery recently, and it led to the release of three new songs. The singer returns with her The Lost Tapes EP, which she described as the result of finding “3 songs I thought had been lost forever on a corrupted hard drive today.” She added, “I love them so much and am so happy they came back to me – and now they’re yours.”
Highlights: “Love, But Whatever”
Jordan Ariel — “Time Doesn’t Heal”
New York singer Jordan Ariel is back with “Time Doesn’t Heal,” her second single of the year following April’s “F*ck You (Freestyle).” On the new record, Ariel asks a lover to be honest with her and themselves about their readiness to begin a new foray into love. Ariel knows this special someone isn’t ready, but she want them to accept it and do the work necessary to one day be ready.
