00:22 It's Monday, October 16th, which means we've got a new Hot 100 to run down.
00:27 This is the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 for the week dated October 21st.

01:54 While Drake is used to dominating the charts, his son Adonis is just getting started on his musical journey.
02:03 His dad Drake may be leading the Billboard 200 this week, but Adonis is filling the spotlight with his new track.
02:13 "I was waiting for this moment to arrive."
02:16 Making music is in his blood.
02:20 Drake's 6-year-old son Adonis dropped his first track called "My Man Freestyle".
02:25 Sunday night, Drake posted a clip of the video on Instagram writing,
02:29 "Happy Birthday my son. My Man Freestyle out now."
02:33 Adonis is no stranger to assisting his dad, making cameos in music videos and drawing the cover art for the rappers "For All The Dogs".
02:41 So it is no surprise the proud father makes a cameo in his son's first music video.
02:46 Taylor may be taking a well-deserved break before she heads to Brazil next month,

03:06 It's a busy time to be a Swiftie and I'm keeping you up to speed.
03:11 "Welcome to the Heiress Tour."
03:13 Taylor Swift's The Heiress Tour film had a massive opening weekend.
03:18 AMC Theatres is saying it earned between $95 and $97 million in North America,
03:23 topping Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never" as the biggest opening for a concert film of all time.
03:29 And you guys won't believe this. I was in it.
03:32 Never getting over that. Love you Taylor.
03:36 Today's Boo footballer Travis Kelce joined her in New York City over the weekend
03:40 as he was featured in an SNL skit highlighting the Swift takeover of football.
03:45 We are going to speak with someone who actually wants to talk football.
03:49 Yes! Come on in!
03:52 Taylor was also there introducing the musical guest, iSpice.
03:58 The superstar couple was spotted holding hands around New York
04:01 to which fellow pop star and friend Katy Perry commented, "I ship."
04:05 And you know what Katy? So do we. So do we.
04:09 Now it's time to talk about one of the most anticipated albums coming out
04:13 and Jungkook's new album just got even more major.
04:16 If you weren't already excited about Jungkook's debut solo album,
04:20 they just dropped the track list and he has some mega artists involved.
04:24 We already know Jack Harlow and Lotto assist on Jungkook's debut solo album Golden
04:33 but now we have the track list and you won't believe some of the other artists he's recruited.
04:37 He's got some EDM heavy hitters with features from DJ Snake and electronic trio Major Lazer.
04:44 And it doesn't stop there. He's recruited some of your faves as writers on some of his songs
04:48 like "Hate You" written in part by Shawn Mendes
04:51 and "Yes or No" which Ed Sheeran and Snow Patrol frontman Johnny McDade teamed up to write.
04:57 And the full album will be yours on November 3rd.
05:01 Before I let you go, I had so much fun hanging out with ITZY
05:04 when they stopped by to talk about making music videos and their latest charting album.
05:09 Five albums in, what made this album different than the ones prior?
05:13 We talk about the confidence a lot but this time we talked about the darkness inside
05:19 so we could love ourselves because we defeated the darkness inside.
05:24 So I think it's a big difference from previous albums.
05:27 That's such a good message. What are some of your favorite tracks?
05:30 I'm sure everybody has a different opinion. So what's your favorite track on the album?
05:34 "Psychic Lover."
05:36 I love that song too.
05:38 Mine is "Breadie."
05:39 My pick is "None of My Business."
05:41 Mine's also "None of My Business."
05:48 Why is that one so personal to you, you think?
05:50 From the first time I listened to it, I really liked the song.
05:54 The vibe of the song is very easy listening.
05:56 It's kind of a good song to drive and just listen to.
05:59 Okay, well now we gotta talk about my favorite song on the album, which is "Cake," obviously.
06:05 It's so good.
06:06 And the video's wild, okay? You were doing stunts and fashion and the choreography.
06:15 So what was your favorite part of filming "Cake?"
06:17 My favorite part is "It's Okay." It was always fine.
06:22 The lyrics of that part is really good, I think.
06:24 And also, I love the story of that music video because it's a little bit cute.
06:30 And talking about that main character who never dies, it could seem really funny and cute to other people who see the music videos.
06:37 Well, you say funny and cute, but let's talk about the story of the video.
06:41 It was very much like "Squid Games," okay?
06:43 Now, that show scared me. I would be so scared watching it.
06:47 What made you guys pick this one to make it colorful and fun?
06:50 The costume and everything kind of made it very fun. It really went along with our song.
06:56 And actually, not only "Squid Games," there's parts from Korean dramas, Korean movies also appear.
07:02 But I think for our global fans, the "Squid Games" would be the most recognizable.
07:08 You can catch the full interview on Billboard.com.
07:11 That's it for today. Come back tomorrow where we'll reveal Billboard's newest cover star.
07:16 I'm Tetris Kelly and this is Billboard News.
