Bad Bunny Canceled His 2020 AMAs Performance Due To A Positive COVID Test

Last night’s American Music Awards show was packed with memorable performances, like a surprise Nelly appearance that made the St. Louis rap veteran go viral on Twitter. However, one performance fans didn’t get to see was reggaeton star Bad Bunny’s; today, Billboard revealed the reason for his absence: he tested positive for COVID-19 ahead of the show.

It was a blow for Bad Bunny and his fans after his “Dakiti” collaboration with Jhay Cortez reached No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart and he won Favorite Male Latin artist and Favorite Latin album at the AMAs for his album YHLQMDLG. He was billed to perform “Dakiti” with Cortez but was forced to pull out due to his positive test. Billboard‘s sources say he’s doing okay.

Fortunately, the other big-name star who missed the show had a more positive reason for doing so. Taylor Swift also skipped the AMAs, but only because she is so busy re-recording her first six albums in an effort to reclaim ownership of her music. There were still plenty of crowd-pleasing performances from the likes of Bebe Rexha (who performed with Doja Cat), Billie Eilish, BTS, Dua Lipa, Lil Baby, Megan Thee Stallion, and The Weeknd, who performed with Kenny G(!).

Some artists covered here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

The trapheaux gracefully glides over in new release “Marble Floors”

Trapheauxly

Trapheauxly’s latest release, “Marble Floors,” is a smooth, seductive single that combines clean, complex rap verses with melodic R&B. The song’s production, soulful vocal harmonies, and steady rhythmic pulse create a luxurious yet emotionally grounded atmosphere. All of these elements work together to create this atmosphere.

The most impressive aspect of it is the way it shifts from a catchy melodic hook to a rapid-fire delivery of the lyrics. One moment, “Marble Floors” is silky smooth, and the next, it is razor sharp. This contrast is what gives the musical its identity.

When it comes to lyrical concerns of intimacy, devotion, and elevated aesthetics, the image of marble floors appears, time and time again, as a symbol of elegance and emotional weight. Trapheauxly is a polished package that combines style, substance, and value that cannot be denied in terms of replay value.

NIHLNØTHING unleashes increased tides on new release “ocean” Power

NIHLNØTHING

NIHLNØTHING’s latest release, “Ocean” is a powerful, immersive single that defies classification as heavy music. The track sounds huge, punishing, and emotionally complex, as the title promises, drawing on post-metal, alternative metal, sludge, groove metal, metalcore, and deathcore.

A sense of depth makes “ocean” appealing. The song balances atmosphere and intensity like a violent current under calm waters. This track has towering sonic weight and textured melodic darkness, suggesting it can go from hypnotic tension to explosive release in a heartbeat.

Genre DNA enables NIHLNØTHING to create something expansive. It has sludge, groove, metalcore urgency, and a post-metal mood that’s probably more than aggression. NIHLNØTHING excels in contrasting crushing weight with atmosphere, chaos with control, and brutality with reflection. Balance distinguishes loud from powerful music.
