Today, one of the music industry’s most prominent corridos superstars,Natanael Cano, released a new single titled “Morritas.” The song and its official music video are now available to stream on all digital platforms. Cano and “Morritas” covered Apple Music’s NEW MUSIC DAILY.
Over the captivating strum of a guitar and melancholic melodies, Natanael Cano weaves a story from his perspective on how a man and woman love on “Morritas.” Inspired by the thought that morritas (women) are made for love and a man leans more into having flow, Cano puts his dynamic vocalization on display through his heartfelt verses while fusing them with the raw corridos sound.
In a split screen music video produced by Toroh Films, “Morritas” follows Natanael Cano and his leading female protagonist through their own lens as they live out parallel versions of the same night. On one hand, the female protagonist is distraught throughout the night as she ponders her partner’s whereabouts, but on the other hand, Cano enjoys his night surrounded by different women. Comparing both perspectives of their relationship on the eventful night, the video seamlessly captures the essence and meaning behind “Morritas” – proving to be the perfect visual component for the song.
“Morritas” follows in the footsteps of Cano’s latest release, “AMG,” alongside Gabito Ballesteros and Peso Pluma. Since its release, the track has obtained over 10 million views on YouTube. Last month, Cano released “Y Si Me Miran,” which sees the multi-platinum artist recruit one of his very own artists signed to his label CT, Gabito Ballesteros and Luis R Conriquez, to come together in an exciting and fresh corrido belico tumbado.
Enjoying a successful and noteworthy year, Cano was recently signed to top modeling agency IMG models and has future projects in the works with the company. Earlier in the year, Cano made his Coachella debut along with unforgettable performances at the hottest festivals of Pal Norte, Baja Beach Fest, and more recently, Rumbazo Festival. Adding to his growing list of accomplishments, the Regional Mexican superstar released his latest album, NATAKONG – the indisputable evidence of the evolution and versatility of Natanael Cano, who stays true to his Regional Mexican essence but also continues innovating within the genre. To date, NATAKONG has garnered over 266 million streams.
Currently, Natanael Cano is back in the studio working on new music for his new album expected to release early 2023.
Rolls-Royce reveals Phantom ‘The Six Elements’ at a gala event in Dubai, UAE
A series of six one-of-one Phantom Extended Series II motor cars, representing an unprecedented convergence of fine art, design, technology and craftsmanship
Created by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective, at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood, resident Bespoke designer in the Private Office Dubai and dealer partners in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, in collaboration with world-renowned British artist Sacha Jafri
Each car includes a unique Gallery artwork, hand-painted by Jafri, inspired by one of the five traditional elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Air – plus a sixth, Humanity
At stage one of its journey, the Series has raised in excess of $1 million for charity; with a unique fundraising NFT in each motor car creating ‘the Rolls-Royce that keeps on giving’
Rolls-Royce has unveiled its unique Bespoke series Phantom ‘The Six Elements’ at a private gala ceremony in Dubai, UAE.
This unprecedented project, initiated by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Dubai and Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Abu Dhabi, comprises six Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended Series II motor cars, each one entirely individual and featuring its own specially-commissioned artwork, hand-painted by one of the world’s most influential living painters, British artist Sacha Jafri, who is based between Dubai, London, and New York.
These stunning works of art are displayed in the gallery, the unique glass-enclosed space running the length of Phantom’s fascia. Each is inspired by one of the five traditional elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Air. The sixth, Humanity, references Sacha Jafri’s best-known work, ‘The Journey of Humanity’, which holds the official Guinness World Record for the largest painting ever produced on canvas.
Phantom ‘The Six Elements’ was designed, developed and hand-crafted by the Bespoke Collective at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood, in collaboration with the resident Bespoke designer in the Rolls-Royce Private Office in Dubai. The project began in late 2020 and has taken two years to complete.
As well as their individual Gallery artworks, the cars feature a number of additional Bespoke elements reflecting Rolls-Royce’s unrivaled capabilities. These include Jafri’s personalised Heart-motif in the hand-painted Coachline, and a unique Six-Elements engraved base for each car’s Spirit of Ecstasy mascot.Accordingly, each car features not only its own original Jafri artwork, but also its own unique NFT, which the owner may sell independently if they choose to do so. With every trade of the NFT, a royalty will be paid into a digital wallet, raising funds for the future charitable donations. The owner can view the NFT using a bespoke Jafri Heart-motif QR code embedded within their motor car’s glove compartment
At the unveiling, it was announced that the project, at stage one of its journey, has already substantially exceeded its initial $1 million target, with all six motor cars have been allocated to customers in Dubai and the wider Middle East region.
“Bespoke IS Rolls-Royce, and our Bespoke Collective’s skills, artistry, and reputation are unrivaled. As this amazing project demonstrates, the world’s leading artists now actively seek opportunities to work with us, extending and informing their own practice and creating motor cars that are works of art in their own right. With his wonderful hand-painted gallery pieces, Sacha Jafri provides an extraordinary demonstration of how Phantom Series II provides the perfect blank canvas for bespoke commissions.
We’re delighted to see these motoring masterpieces come to life after a remarkable journey of collaboration, creativity and craftsmanship. We’re also thrilled that the project has fulfilled its original, primary purpose, and raised such a significant sum for worthy causes. I would like to congratulate everyone involved, both at Goodwood and in the Middle East, on this inspiring achievement.”
22-Year-Old Georgia Native Claims Victory As First-Ever “Instant Save” Artist to Win
Coach Blake Shelton Takes Crown for Ninth Time
Bryce Leatherwood, a 22-year-old country artist from Statesboro, Ga., was named the champion of “The Voice” Season 22 tonight.
Leatherwood was saved multiple times this season and faced tough competition from the other finalists – Team Blake teammates bodie (runner-up) and Brayden Lape (5th place), Omar Jose Cardona from Team Legend (4th place) and Morgan Myles from Team Camila (3rd place).
In his blind audition, Leatherwood, known for his pure country persona and talent, earned a three-chair turn for his risky choice singing “Goodbye Time” by Conway Twitty in the style of Blake Shelton. After a tough deliberation, the singer went with his country roots and chose Blake as his coach. He went on to perform a rousing cover of “Red Dirt Road” by Brooks & Dunn in the Battle Round, which earned him a last-minute save by Coach Blake and won his Knockout Round with a stirring performance of “Colder Weather” by Zac Brown Band.
Leatherwood started the Live Rounds as the instant save artist voted on by America to advance to the Top 13. He is the first-ever Instant Save Artist to win “The Voice.”
Following his instant save, he consistently wowed the coaches and viewers with performances of George Strait’s “Amarillo by Morning” and Morgan Wallen’s “Sand in My Boots.” He secured a spot in the finale after a moving duet with Morgan Myles from Team Camila of the Whitney Houston classic “Saving All My Love for You” and a solo performance of Justin Moore’s “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away.”
On Monday night’s telecast, Leatherwood once again impressed with two timeless country classics – “T-R-O-U-B-L-E” by Travis Tritt and “Don’t Close Your Eyes” by Keith Whitley.
On tonight’s finale, Leatherwood was joined on stage by Shelton for a rousing performance of the country star’s own 2011 hit “Hillbilly Bone.”
Leatherwood proved to be incredibly popular on the show’s social media platforms this season. His performances accrued 15.6 million views across “The Voice” Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and YouTube pages.
Leatherwood grew up going to his granddaddy’s farm where they would ride around together and listen to country music. Leatherwood couldn’t imagine life without his grandfather, who was diagnosed with lung cancer when Leatherwood was young but is still going strong to this day – and was seen multiple times on “The Voice” supporting his grandson from afar. Leatherwood is finishing up his final year at Georgia Southern University and completing a degree in business in hopes of managing his music career. The college bar scene is where he got experience on stage, and it’s also how he pays his bills.
“The Voice” is the most-watched unscripted series for the 2022-23 season for the fourth consecutive time.
“The Voice” is a presentation of MGM Television, Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Warner Horizon, and ITV Studios The Voice USA, Inc. The series was created by John de Mol, who serves as an executive producer along with Mark Burnett, Audrey Morrissey, Amanda Zucker, Kyra Thompson and Adam H. Sher.

Therefore, they can do everything very quickly without facing many problems. Bitcoin cryptocurrency has solved a lot of issues that were being tackled by the people in the traditional banking system, and that is the primary reason why people prefer using it in daily life.
As we know that in Central banks, the control of money is given in the hands of the officials, but in the digital one, the entire control and management of the currency are being done by the owner itself, and they have complete information about each and everything which is going on in this system. It is possible because of the transparency factor provided by the Bitcoin cryptocurrency. People are pleased because a single update does not miss them as Bitcoin keeps notifying them.

The transformation of digital currency has brought a perfect revolution in the market, and it has changed many things for a better reason.

It was an insightful media trip to Franklin, Tennessee, to visit with product planners, communications professionals, and Mitsubishi Motors engineers for a deeper understanding of the newly released 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. The sporty and family SUV PHEV, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle,/ has a combined driving range of 420 miles. If you decide to cruise around town in EV mode only, the battery affords the Outlander 38 all-electric miles. The Japanese seven-seat, three-row SUV is a winner for consumers looking for a crossover utility blessed with talent, sporty styling, rugged capabilities, and extended range.
From the time the reimagined gasoline model hit the scene last year, the company’s 330 dealer partners across the United States have been engaged and selling Outlanders like holiday cupcakes. We are not sure why Mitsubishi took so long to reinvigorate the product, but they are no longer a forgotten brand. Of course progress must continue to take over the consciousness of auto buyers since Honda, Hyundai, and Toyota come to mind in the value SUV market. Nevertheless, Mitsubishi is aware of its disposition and attacking the airwaves with product announcements and marketing campaigns to win over potential new buyers. Furthermore, if an all-electric vehicle is not in your foreseeable future, a PHEV may be perfect for your lifestyle in preparation for the impending mobility shift.
“Since its launch in March 2022, the gasoline version of the all-new Outlander has been a homerun, setting sales records monthly even in the face of global supply challenges,” said Mark Chaffin, MMNA president and CEO. “When sales begin in the U.S., the 2023 Outlander PHEV will take its place as the flagship of the Mitsubishi fleet. It is the most advanced and best-equipped vehicle we have ever sold, and it is the perfect blend of quiet and clean electric motoring with the range and ease of refueling of a gasoline-powered vehicle.”
The latest third-generation Outlander is larger, wider, more authentic, and more resilient than the model it replaces. With a solid and rigid physique and dazzling 20” two-tone alloy rims, the SUV is embraced by stellar visualization that translates to one of the most stylish SUVs on the market. According to Mitsubishi, the design ethos manifested from the phrase “I-Fu-Do-Do,” which equates to “authentic and majestic” in Japanese. Before this model, I had never considered an Outlander because it did not speak to me or offer any substantial benefits to my lifestyle. Well, now it does with a chiseled body, aggressive “Dynamic Shield” grille, tall robotic headlamps, a power liftgate, a panoramic sunroof, and an impressively curated interior that immediately caught my attention.
Mitsubishi’s Global Warning plan will help establish a sustainable society by reducing the CO2 emissions of its new vehicles by 40% by 2030, with PHEVs as the focal point. The long-term goal is to achieve a net-zero carbon footprint by 2050. Thus, this platform is not new to the brand as they first experimented with electrification in 1971 with the MINICA EV and also sold a prior Outlander PHEV in other countries. The current 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV features a new generation of the Mitsubishi twin-motor 4WD PHEV system with more power produced from the front (114-horsepower) and rear (134-horsepower) motors that pair with a 20 kWh large capacity 350v lithium-ion drive battery. The 2.4-liter 4-cylinder MIVEC gas engine (132 horsepower) remains and pairs with a larger plastic-sealed gas tank (from 11.9 gallons to 14.8 gallons), reducing the vehicle’s weight and allowing for more fuel. The combined powertrain produces 248-horsepower, 332 lb/ft torque, and 64 MPGe. On the road, the Outlander PHEV is smooth, quick, and never felt underpowered. Additionally, the vehicle will always seek the electric motors as the first power source. Overall, the Outlander PHEV weighs 440 pounds more than the Outlander ICE (Internal Combustion Engine).
Regarding charging, the port is located on the Outlander PHEV’s rear passenger side. It will take 6.5 hours to charge the battery using a 240v level-2 charger and 38 minutes through level 3 DC fast charging up to 80%. The SUV features an EV button with four modes: Normal, Charge, Save, and EV mode. Then there is the Innovative Pedal which allows the driver to use one pedal for acceleration and braking for most driving scenarios.
Inside the PHEV I enjoyed the double-pained windows for noise reduction, genuine aluminum trim, multi-view cameras, smartphone wireless charging, window shades, 100v AC power sources, physical knobs on the 9″ touchscreen infotainment system, dynamic navigation graphics, and the impressive 9-speaker Bose premium sound system. However, Mitsubishi needs to increase the size of the infotainment system since 9″ is small by today’s standards. In the rear, the third row folds out from the floor, but its use is for emergencies or small kids since long hauls would be uncomfortable. The high-quality cabin is spacious, and the softer materials add a flare of elegance. I also relished the massaging feature on the sporty seats.
On the road, the PHEV’s Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) offers superior gripping and agility capabilities. The dual-motor arrangement uses the rear motor to drive the rear axle and up-front employs the gas engine and motor to drive the front axle. This combo brings extra confidence behind the wheel, especially during high-speed turns which I experienced at a small racetrack in TN. The Outlander PHEV shifts dramatically from right to left with aplomb when an explosive maneuver is required. S-AWC has been upgraded with seven drive modes to tackle adverse weather or venture effortlessly through muddy terrain as I also experienced in a mud pit at the track. S-AWC simultaneously provided excellent handling performance, stability performance, and traction performance. The modes include Normal, Eco, Gravel, Power, Snow, Tarmac, and Mud.
With no federal incentives available, the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV costs approximately $8,000 more than the ICE Outlander. Prices fluctuate from $39,845 for an SE model to $49,995 for the 40th Anniversary Edition. Safety abounds with packages like Adaptive Cruise Control with Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Warning and Prevention, Traffic Sign Recognition, Driver Attention Alert, Automatic High Beam, and Hill Descent Control, to name a few. Lastly, Mitsubishi offers a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty. Not bad for a vehicle that will be good to you in almost every department.

Lids is releasing an exclusive collection of WNBA New Era hats.
Unlike typical WNBA hats, this is the first time that New Era has designed fitted, team-specific WNBA headwear. Even beyond that, no other hat brand has released a fashion colorway specific for WNBA teams. Lids, through its Lids Hat Drop ecommerce and in-store platforms, is the first retailer to release a hat of this kind, with retro logos and side patches from previous years. Inspired by the nostalgic look of the women’s sports apparel industry, this first-of-its-kind collection is a nod to the first 8 WNBA teams that started in the inaugural season.
Since Lids’ founding in 1993, the brand has quickly expanded, to date there are over 1,500 Lids stores throughout North America, Europe, and Australia. Lids continues to be the world’s largest retailer specializing in the sale of officially licensed, branded, and fashion headwear, with over 30 million hats sold annually.
In collaboration with Made for the W, the collection will be sold online exclusively on LidsHatDrop.com exclusive and will only be available in-store at the recently opened Lids Hat Drop store in Jamaica, Queens, NY. Following the success of the Lids Hat Drop e-commerce platform, which launched earlier this year, the new Lids Hat Drop store operates similarly to its e-commerce counterpart with exclusive and limited-edition drops every Friday at 11AM EST.
A study warns teens to be on high alert for online scams this holiday season as they are now falling for scams faster than every other age group.
The money lost by teens grew by 1125% over the last five years compared to 390% for seniors. Teens lost just $8.2 million in 2017 compared to $101.4 million last year. This speaks to the growing sophistication of scammers and the overconfidence of tech-savvy teens online.
1) Romance Scams: During the holidays, teenagers who feel lonely — despite being surrounded by family — turn online looking for connection. Romance scammers approach them with stolen photos of an attractive suitor, shower them with love and affection, and begin asking for money.
2) Social Media Influencer Free Holiday Giveaways: Scammers create fake Tik Tok and Instagram accounts to impersonate popular social media influencers. They offer free product giveaways and include a link to redeem the product. It is a phishing link that steals all of your data.
How to Avoid: Fake accounts have few followers. Never click on any suspicious links.
3) Online Shopping Scams: Teens do most of their holiday shopping online and scammers are creating fake stores and running ads offering holiday discounts. The fraudulent look-a-like website looks may look legitimate at first glance, but any products purchased will never arrive.
How to Avoid: Fake sites have spelling errors in the URL and grammatical errors across the site.
