Carol Grando invites the world to dance freely with new single “SE JOGA”

Carol Grando

Brazilian-born rising star Carol Grando has returned with an electrifying new single, “SE JOGA,” now available across all digital platforms, accompanied by an official lyric video on YouTube. At just 20 years old, Carol continues to carve her distinctive space in the global music scene, fusing her Brazilian roots with universally infectious pop sensibilities. “SE JOGA” is a masterclass in cultural synergy. The track seamlessly blends high-energy Brazilian Funk rhythms with lush Latin Pop melodies, creating a sound that is both dreamy and refreshingly contemporary.

Produced in collaboration with Los Angeles-based beatmaker paul., the song’s pulsating beats and captivating chorus make it an invitation to literally “go for it,” as the title suggests. Following the critical acclaim of her previous single The One, which earned nominations for Best Song and Best Vocal at the 2025 Los Angeles Music Video Awards, Carol’s latest release marks a bold step forward in her artistic journey. Her identity, vibrant and fearless, shines through every beat and lyric of “SE JOGA.” The song is a track of empowerment and self-expression, encouraging listeners to let go of inhibitions and fully embrace their authenticity. The visuals surrounding the single further amplify its energy and flair.

Featuring striking photography by Eduardo Orelha and beauty styling by Narjara Jamil, the lyric video radiates charisma and confidence, mirroring the track’s bold spirit. Carol herself describes the song as “something that feels alive and immediate. Something you feel in your body and your heart,” a sentiment that resonates powerfully in both sound and imagery. “SE JOGA” highlights Carol Grando’s unique ability to bridge cultures, generations, and musical traditions. With each release, she redefines what it means to be a global pop artist rooted in Latin heritage, delivering music that is as personal as it is universal. “SE JOGA” is an invitation to dance, feel, and dive headfirst into life.

Snoop Dogg Wants To Pay Someone $10,000 A Month To Eat Ice Cream

Snoop Dogg has had a lot of job titles over the years, but “official ice cream taster” wasn’t one of them until now — and he’s hiring someone else to fill it. His company Dr. Bombay just opened applications for the role, and it pays $10,000 a month.

The gig is fully remote and open to anyone on the planet, which Snoop announced himself in a video that’s exactly as laid-back as you’d expect. “I love the paper, but not the paperwork,” he said, explaining that HR firm Deel is handling the logistics while he handles, presumably, the ice cream.

The actual job is less “sit around and eat pints all day” and more part-time cultural scout. Whoever gets it will track flavor and food trends around the world, report back on what people are eating and talking about, and work directly with Dr. Bombay’s in-house flavor lead to help shape what the brand does next. It’s a three-month contractor role, and Snoop’s team says they’re actively looking outside the usual resume pile — creators and non-traditional applicants welcome.

Dr. Bombay itself leans nostalgic, with flavors like Long Beach Fruit Cart, Sticky Caramel Apple Pie, and Peanut Butter Jelly Time already sitting on shelves at Walmart and moving through DoorDash and Instacart. Somewhere out there is one very lucky applicant about to get paid five figures a month to have opinions about ice cream, and honestly, good for them.

The Soul Train Awards Are Finally Coming Back

The “Soul Train Awards” are getting their groove back. BET confirmed the show is returning this November after a three-year pause, and this time it’s landing somewhere it’s never aired before: CBS.

The revived special airs Friday, November 27th at 8 PM, simulcast across BET and CBS, plus VH1, MTV2, Logo, and BET Her for anyone who wants to catch it more than once. It won’t be broadcast live this time — the show was taped in Chicago, the same city where Don Cornelius first launched “Soul Train” back in 1971.

The ceremony went quiet after its 2023 edition, hosted by Keke Palmer, and BET’s former leadership chalked the pause up to needing a rethink for a media landscape that looks nothing like it did when the show started. That rethink is apparently done. BET’s Connie Orlando says the 2026 edition comes back “reimagined” with a “bold new format,” built around pairing the artists who shaped R&B and soul with the ones carrying it forward now.

Spotify has signed on as the exclusive streaming partner and Toyota is attached as a sponsor, so this isn’t a scrappy comeback — it’s a full relaunch. Performances, honorees, and a host are all still to be announced, but for a show that spent three years on ice, just having a date back on the calendar feels like something worth celebrating.
