Last update: 4 hours ago

Streaming Disruption: Spotify was temporarily down for thousands of U.S. users Tuesday, with reports of search and playback problems and “Something went wrong” errors; Spotify said it was “checking them out.” Music Milestone: Stevie Wonder marks the 50th anniversary of Songs in the Key of Life with a new EP, Songs in the Key of Life: The EP, featuring four previously unreleased tracks from the original sessions, ahead of a major anniversary tour. Chart Watch: Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” keeps extending its Hot 100 reign, adding another record-setting week at No. 1. Music Business & Tech: Motion Society names Chanel Simmons as its new U.S. managing director, tapping her past Spotify/Meta/Fullscreen experience to lead creator-focused operations. Music Law: Attorneys for artist JMSN sent a cease-and-desist letter after his song “Love Me” was used in a Trump taxpayer-funded ad, alleging copyright violations.
