Last update: 4 hours ago

AI & Music Safety: Ariana Grande’s body-scrutiny backlash is reportedly triggering fear and anger in eating-disorder patients, with clinicians pointing to the sheer volume and tone of online commentary. Music Business & Streaming: Sony Music and UMG have taken legal action against “parasitic” streaming app Musi in Canada, adding pressure to the ongoing fight over music distribution and unauthorized services. AI Music Policy: Suno is pushing “audio watermarks” and new principles aimed at limiting spammy AI output and clarifying originality rules as legal trouble grows. Industry Power Plays: Paramount Skydance is reportedly offering enforceable theatrical commitments tied to a proposed Warner Bros. merger, as antitrust scrutiny intensifies around release control and streaming timelines. Artist/Legacy News: Whitney Houston’s estate is releasing “WH1TNEY,” and Mattel unveiled a Whitney Houston Barbie Signature Doll, extending her brand footprint beyond music. Live Music & Community: Boots and Hearts vendors and local street-fair performers are keeping the festival economy moving despite weather and crowds.
