For Record Store Day 2026, Victrola partners with Jack White‘s Third Man Records on a new set of limited-edition turntable and speakers for music fans who love the warmth and depth of analog audio.

Priced at $649.99 for the bundle, the Victrola Third Man Records Turntable Set comes with the audio company’s Wave turntable and a pair of Tempo bookshelf Bluetooth speakers in the record label’s eye-catching black and yellow colorway.

Although it comes in an all-in-one bundle, you can get the turntable and speakers separately too. The Victrola Wave was Billboard’s pick for best turntable at CES 2025 (Consumer Electronics Show), thanks to its premium audio, Bluetooth connections (Auracast) to speakers or headphones and minimal, yet modern design.

In addition, the Tempo speakers are a perfect companion to the turntable with precise sound reproduction and wireless connectivity. Audio is deep and rich with warm and clear tones, while bass is punchy and rumbly — which is best for all sorts of rock, blues, hip-hop and country music.

For pricing, the Third Man Records-branded Wave goes for $499.99, while the pair of Tempo Bluetooth speakers are priced at $249.99. Altogether, it would go for $749.98, but the set saves you $99.99, so it’s best to go with the bundle instead.

Bunbury to Bad Bunny Fans Who Bought Tickets to His Show by Mistake: ‘Welcome to the Concert’

Published

on

By

Spanish rocker Bunbury has reacted to a mix-up that recently went viral on social media. “Not long ago, it came out somewhere that some girls got confused and, instead of buying tickets for Bad Bunny, they bought tickets for Bunbury,” the artist said on Tuesday (April 14) during an appearance on the show La Revuelta on TVE.

The anecdote traces back to a TikTok video published on Feb. 9 in which the young women laugh as they recount how they mistakenly purchased tickets for Bunbury’s Dec. 4 show at the Movistar Arena in Madrid, instead of tickets for one of Bad Bunny’s residency shows scheduled from May 30 to June 15 at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in the city.

According to Bunbury, the confusion might have stemmed from the similarity between their names. “I guess they saw the B and the Y …,” he noted.

Rather than treating the situation as a problem, Bunbury responded with humor when the host asked him for a message for the fans: “Well, welcome to the concert.” As for the possibility of refunding the tickets, he added, “I’m not planning on giving them back.”

Despite the lighthearted tone, the artist defended the experience of his live performances, saying, “I think if they come, they’re going to enjoy it.”

Billboard Español reached out to Bunbury’s representatives for comment, but did not receive a response by press time.

The moment also sparked a brief reflection on his relationship with social media. Bunbury admitted that he avoids exposing himself to digital opinions, especially negative ones. “You read 100 good comments, and then there’s one that says ‘terrible’ and that one weighs on you more than the others,” he explained.

During the same conversation, the artist recalled that he recently crossed paths with Bad Bunny at the Latin Grammys, where they were seated near each other, though he didn’t get a chance to say hello.

Bunbury will hit the road this year with his Nuevas Mutaciones Tour. Check out the dates below:

A Timeline of the Consequences Ye Has Faced for His ‘WLM’ Shirts & Antisemitic Hate Speech

Published

on

By

Ye (formerly Kanye West) is facing very public reckoning. The “Hurricane” rapper made headlines at his Yeezy Paris Fashion Week show on Oct. 3, 2022, for wearing a shirt emblazoned with the phrase “White Lives Matter” on its back, and featuring Black models in the shirt. The phrase is one that was adopted by neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, and the rapper has been facing backlash from both fans and celebrities online.

But the controversy did not stop for there for Ye, who has doubled down on his comments on Instagram and later took to Twitter (now X) to use antisemitic rhetoric in his posts, then continued to amplify his hate speech in interviews. The reaction from the public was swift, with several companies — including The Gap, Balenciaga and more — terminating their relationships and brand deals with the rapper.

Musicians React to Kanye West’s Antisemitic Comments, ‘White Lives Matter’ Shirts

Forbes reported that Ye has lost his billionaire status after Adidas announced Oct. 25, 2022, that it was dropping his deal, and that the brand does not tolerate hate speech. The move, according to the publication, put Ye’s net worth at $400 million and resulted in his removal from Forbes‘ billionaires list.

Since then, Adidas has opened an internal investigation after several former employees accused West of inappropriate workplace conduct during meetings with Adidas employees. People in his orbit, from former girlfriend Julia Fox to collaborator Pusha T, have also distanced themselves from him. Furthermore, Ye’s Nov. 22, 2022, dinner with Donald Trump and white nationalist Nick Fuentes was widely denounced, even by Trump’s former vice president, Mike Pence.

From brands and scrapped documentaries, to airplay declines of his music catalogue, his later apologies and more, here are the consequences Kanye West has faced due to his “WLM” and antisemitic remarks and hate speech.

*Editor’s Note: After an Oct. 8, 2022, tweet in which he announced he was going “death con [sic] 3 on Jewish people,” Kanye West (Ye) has repeatedly doubled down on antisemitic hate speech, even going so far as to praise Hitler, a man responsible for the systematic murder of six million Jews during the Holocaust. This arrives at a troubling time when antisemitism is on the rise, with the Anti-Defamation League noting a 34% year-over-year increase in antisemitic incidents (assault, harassment and vandalism) in America in 2021. Many companies have cut business ties with the rapper/fashion designer, while numerous musicians, friends and politicians have condemned his comments.

LE SSERAFIM’s Sophomore Album ‘PUREFLOW’ Is on Its Way: Here’s When It Arrives

Published

They are fearless, they are powerful and they are back with new music. K-pop girl group LE SSERAFIM announced via Weverse on Sunday (April 12) the release date for their second studio album, PUREFLOW pt. 1 and the lead single “CELEBRATION.” PUREFLOW pt. 1 will drop on May 22 with the single coming out April 24.

The girl group began teasing its comeback on April 7 with a cryptic Instagram post with the hashtag “#TimeToCelebrate.” Fans were quick to react in the posts’ comments asking, “What are we celebrating,” while others responded simply with “Finally.”

Alongside the news of the upcoming album and single, the K-pop girl group also shared a video for the PUREFLOW on its social media channels and record label HYBE’s YouTube channel. In the video, the phrase “For we are not fearless, and therefore powerful” materializes before “powerful” transforms into the word PUREFLOW. The same message appears in the caption.

PUREFLOW is the follow-up record to LE SSERAFIM’s 2023 debut studio album, UNFORGIVEN, and the first release since its 2025 single “SPAGHETTI” featuring j-hope of BTS. Since the group’s debut in 2022 with EP FEARLESS, LE SSERAFIM has taken the stage at both the MTV VMAs and EMAs, achieved major chart success on the Billboard 200 and performed at Coachella in 2024. LE SSERAFIM’s second EP, ANTIFRAGILE, debuted and peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard 200, marking the band’s first time on the chart. UNFORGIVEN earned the group its first top 10 placement on the Billboard 200 when it rose to a peak of No. 6 in May 2023.
