Gunna has gone through a physical and mental transformation over the last two years, and now he’s inviting his fans to join him on his health and wellness journey.
The rapper has announced Wunna Run, a race taking place at Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. It will see attendees running nearly “one full loop around the park with a sprint up Center Drive,” according to the run’s website.
The race is set to go down Sept. 3 at 6 p.m. ET; there were no fees required to participate. Runners, however, were given the option upon registration to donate to Gunna’s Great Giveaway Foundation.
“Yo, what’s up? Gunna. September the 3rd, New York, I need everyone to meet me and the Wunna Run club. We doing a 5K,” he said in a video taken in the gym. “September the 3rd. Get there, let’s go.”
The event has since reached its capacity.
More information about the Wunna Run race can be found online.

The double-LP is due out Oct. 17 and is available to preorder now.
Meliora is Ghost’s third studio album. It marked their international breakthrough thanks in part to the lead single “Cirice,” which became the Swedish band’s first song to chart on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay ranking.

If you’re hoping to see Garbage live, this may be your last chance.
The “I Think I’m Paranoid” rockers say that their upcoming trek launching Sept. 3 in Orlando, Florida, will mark “our last North American headline tour.”
“We haven’t played an extensive headline tour like this one in the States for almost a decade,” reads a post on Garbage’s Instagram. “If the truth be told, it is unlikely we will play many of the cities on this tour ever again.”
“We are going out in style and we hope you will join us,” Shirley Manson and company continue. “That’s life my friends. Nothing stays the same forever. Everything must change. All beautiful things come to an end. We love you.”
Garbage’s tour supports their new album, Let All That We Imagine Be the Light, which was released in May. The U.S. leg concludes Nov. 5 in Los Angeles.
The Beatles have finally shared the big news they’ve been teasing on social media. The legendary group is revisiting their multimedia Anthology project with reissues of the Anthology documentary series, music and book.
The original eight-part Anthology documentary aired on ABC in 1995 and featured John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr telling their own stories. The documentary has now been expanded to nine installments; the original episodes have been restored and remastered by Apple Corps with the help of Peter Jackson’s WingNut Films and Park Road Post teams, while Giles Martin is responsible for new audio mixes of most of the music. It will debut Nov. 26 on Disney+.
The music of Anthology is also being revisited with the Nov. 21 release of The Beatles Anthology music collection. The original Anthology albums consisted of three double albums, all of which have now been remastered by Martin. In addition, the new collection will include a fourth installment, Anthology 4, featuring 13 previously unreleased demos and session recordings, and other rare recordings.
The collection also includes “Free as a Bird,” which was part of Anthology 1, and “Real Love,” which was part of Anthology 2. Both tracks, which at the time were the first new songs from The Beatles in 25 years, have been remixed by original producer Jeff Lynne. The new set also includes the band’s 2023 release, “Now and Then.”
The remixed version of “Free as a Bird” is out now, along with a fully restored version of its music video.
The Beatles Anthology music collection will be released digitally and as a 12-LP and eight-CD collection, and is available for preorder now.
Finally, a 25th anniversary edition of The Beatles Anthology book will be released Oct. 14. The book has the band sharing memories of their musical journey and features more than 1,300 photos, documents, artwork and memorabilia. It is available for preorder now.

When they’re appearing on the 366-foot tall screens inside Sphere Las Vegas during their Into the Millennium residency, Backstreet Boys are very much “Larger Than Life.” But now, they’ve been shrunk down into a collectible toy set from Fisher-Price and Little People.
The Little People Collector set features AJ McLean, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, KevinRichardson and NickCarter as plastic figures, all modeled after the group’s looks in their iconic video for “I Want It That Way.” All five members are packaged together in a decorative window box that reads Millennium — that’s the title of the album that contained the group’s signature song.
As previously reported, Backstreet Boys just extended their Vegas residency into February. Tickets for the new dates, as well as the previously announced shows in December and January, go on sale Aug. 22.

Megan Moroney‘s latest hit chronicles the seemingly impossible trip from the cheap seats at a Kenny Chesney concert to standing right beside the superstar onstage several years later.
For Megan, the journey she describes in “You Had to Be There” started when she was going to the University of Georgia.
“The first verse is a flashback to 2018,” she explains. “I bought Kenny Chesney tickets to go see him in Atlanta, Georgia, in Mercedes-Benz Stadium. I had nosebleed seats. We were all in college just having a good time. And seven years later, I’m onstage with him. I’m opening for him, and that’s kind of what the second verse is.”
Megan takes it a step further with the song, recording her first collab with Chesney.
“Then Kenny comes in,” she continues, “and yeah, I just wrote this song about being on tour with him and how grateful I am for the experience and how there was magic in the air, like, you literally had to be there.”
You can witness the friendship that continues between the two in the video they shot for the song. Meanwhile, Megan’s also making a solo trip up the chart with her single “6 Months Later.”
