India's streaming mainstream has split by platform — Spotify crowns Haryanvi, Apple crowns Punjabi. Plus Amazon's India price reset and a Mumbai concert death.
An independent Haryanvi track tops Billboard India with no label or film behind it. Plus: Suman Kalyanpur dies at 89, and Diljit conquers MSG.
Spotify and Universal open the catalogue to AI remixes the same week Indian labels tell DSPs to value AI at zero. Plus: Ye's Delhi show collapses.
Ye banned from the UK, Wireless Festival cancelled — and India's May 23 Delhi show is next in the crosshairs.
HYBE launches auditions across 10 Indian cities, Def Leppard debuts in India, and Keinemusik draws 30K to Mumbai.
