Lara Trump's attempting to fuse her real job with her dream job -- that's why she recorded a politically charged song, and the Democrats are quickly firing back with a diss track!

Take a listen to the new song, "Party's Fallin' Down" ... which roasts Donald Trump's daughter-in-law for her rocky start to heading up the Republican National Committee. We're told the upbeat pop song was generated through Suno AI, but was not modeled after any particular song or artist.

The Democratic National Committee's track is strikingly different from Lara's anthem, "Anything Is Possible." Remember, Lara dropped that ballad Thursday, singing lyrics about having faith amid hardship.

Summer Walker has what should be a show-stopping condition, but the R&B enchantress isn't stopping ANY performances ... because she knows fans paid good money to see her!!!

SW's currently overseas as the headliner for Australia and New Zealand's first-ever R&B and Soul music festival, 'Souled Out' ... but sources close to the "Over It" singer tell TMZ Hip Hop she came down with a case of bronchitis a few days ago.

We're told Summer doesn't believe in modern medicine, so she's been soothing her throat with a blend of herbs and teas in the meantime.

Summer battled through the 2nd date of the festival in Auckland, New Zealand, and the next one went down Friday in Melbourne, Australia.

We're told she's been on heavy vocal rest, meaning absolutely minimal speaking until her shows begin.

Kodak Black is facing a lawsuit from a high-end limo service accusing him of owing a whopping $600k in unpaid fees ... but the "Zeze" rapper blames the company for snoozing at the wheel!!!

Kodak was sued this week by I&D Concierge -- the limo company KB used from 2018 to 2024 -- for allegedly skipping out on hundreds of hours worth of driving services.

But Kodak's lawyer Bradford Cohen is firing back at the lawsuit, telling TMZ Hip Hop ... I&D took full advantage of his client when he was going through a rough patch, and capitalized on the situation.

Beyoncé has done a lot with her new album -- especially for Black country artists who might've been discouraged from diving into the genre ... so says one of her collaborators.

We talked to singer Tiera Kennedy Friday on "TMZ Live," the same day Queen Bey dropped 'Cowboy Carter' to widespread acclaim ... and she tells us working on the pop star's new project was a dream come true.

Tiera, who appeared on the "Blackbird" cover, says she never would've thought she'd be on a Beyoncé track -- let alone in a country capacity -- but says the fact that it happened is wild (in a good way, of course).

Hailey Bieber ha despertado una vez más los rumores de enemistad con Selena Gómez, esta vez metiendo sin querer en el baile a Beyoncé.

La gente está perdiendo la cabeza con la nueva versión de Bey del éxito de Dolly Parton, "Jolene", y eso incluye a la esposa de Justin Bieber, quien compartió la pista en su Instagram Story el jueves.

Hailey Bieber resonó con la canción, que aborda temas de infidelidad y robo de hombres, con un "whew" junto al single. No pasó mucho tiempo para que los fans de Selena interpretaran el comentario como una indirecta hacia ella, por ser la famosa ex de Justin Bieber antes de Hailey.

Billie Eilish está criticando a los artistas que reeditan su música en diversos formatos físicos, y aunque no dio nombres, muchos están tomando esto como un dardo hacia Taylor Swift.

La cantante dio una entrevista a Billboard y tocó este tema sin rodeos, diciendo que hay un montón de "grandes artistas" que re-lanzan toda su música varias veces, incluso en vinilo, y piensa que es un descarado robo de dinero, por no hablar del daño para el medio ambiente.

Billie dice: "Vivimos en momento y era en la que, por alguna razón, es muy importante para algunos artistas hacer todo tipo de vinilo y envases de distintos tipos que sube las ventas y sube los números y les hace obtener más dinero y más."

Hailey Bieber has once again stirred up Selena Gomez feud rumors ... this time inadvertently pulling Beyoncé into the mix.

People are just about losing it over Bey's new cover of Dolly Parton's hit, "Jolene" -- including Justin Bieber's wife ... who posted the track on her Instagram Story on Thursday.

HB resonated with the song -- which addresses themes of infidelity and manstealing -- as she wrote "whew" alongside the single. It didn't take long for fans of Selena to interpret the comment as a dig at Selena ... who was famously Justin Bieber's ex, pre-Hailey.

Diddy parecía estar interpretando el papel de "¿preocupado, yo?", el jueves por la noche mientras llevaba a sus 2 gemelas hasta el Top Golf en Miami, la misma ciudad en donde los federales allanaron una de sus casas a principios de esta semana.

Diddy hizo una señal de paz con los dedos cuando iba saliendo con sus hijas de 17 años, Jessie y D'Lila. Las chicas iban sonriendo mientras Diddy caminaba detrás levantando sus 2 dedos. Definitivamente, no se podría estar más relajado...

Nos dicen que todo el mundo estaba de buen humor, y que jugaron por 2 horas, aunque tras bambalinas es todo menos tranquilo en el mundo de Diddy.

Sabrina Carpenter has a message for all the ladies out there who are having sex -- and it basically amounts to ... avoid unplanned pregnancies if you can.

The singer did an interview with Cosmopolitan this week, and she was asked if she had any sex tips for their readers -- mostly geared toward women, it seems -- and SC was fairly straightforward in what she considers sage advice for young ladies.

Sabrina says, "I mean, at the end of the day, my whole thing right now is, whatever you do, don’t get pregnant. That’s the way I’m living my life. So that’s my sex tip. Be smart. Use protection."

Billie Eilish is calling out artists for re-releasing their music in various hard copy forms -- and while she doesn't names names ... many are taking this as a shot at Taylor Swift.

The singer did an interview with Billboard -- and she touched on this issue bluntly ... saying there are a lot of "big artists" who re-release all of their music multiple times, including on vinyl, and Billie thinks it's a shameless cash grab ... not to mention bad for the environment.

She says ... "We live in this day and age where, for some reason, it’s very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging … which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more."

Diddy created the image, "What me worry?" Thursday night as he took his twins to hit up Topgolf in Miami ... the same town where feds raided one of his homes earlier this week.

Diddy flashed a peace sign as he left with 17-year-old daughters Jessie and D'Lila. The girls smiled as Diddy walked behind raising his 2 fingers. You can't look more chill than the Sergio Tacchini velour tracksuit he was rocking.

We're told everyone was in good spirits as they played for 2 hours, although behind the scenes it's anything but calm in the Diddy camp.

Patrick Mahomes is distancing himself from Diddy as the rap mogul faces a mountain of troubling allegations ... with the Kansas City Chiefs superstar's social media accounts deleting posts that reference Sean Combs' stage name.

Back in the year 2014, Mahomes shared two posts that included the phrase "P Diddy" -- which is what the Bad Boy founder went by from 2001-2004.

At least one of the tweets appears to be completely unrelated to the artist ... as it mentioned a friend with the username "@Pat_Day_75," who seems to be a longtime friend from Texas.

Beyoncé took Dolly Parton's most famous hit about begging a woman to stay away from her man and switched it up -- going on the offensive ... and invoking the notorious "Becky."

It was one of many surprises on Bey's new album "Cowboy Carter" -- with her track "Jolene" not necessarily being a pure cover of DP's iconic song ... but more so a remix, where she drastically changed the lyrics and shifted the focus over who the song is really about.

Whereas Dolly's version is quite literally pleading with a woman named Jolene -- who's portrayed as a beauty who's seducing Dolly's fictional husband -- Bey did the opposite ... and fired off warning shots to this "Jolene" and told her to steer clear from her own hubby.

Taylor Swift's apparently a good luck charm for Travis Kelce on the golf course too!

The Chiefs star hit the links with Chandler Parsons on Thursday -- and in an effort to get the tight end to screw up a shot, CP threw on some "Bad Blood."

But, check out the video the former NBA player posted to his Instagram page, Kelce actually thrived with the tunes on in the background!!

Teyana Taylor is convinced Iman Shumpert's relationship with a woman is negatively impacting their children -- so much so, she wants an expert to get involved in their divorce ... TMZ has learned.

In new court documents, obtained by TMZ, Teyana's attorney asks the court to let her call on a child psychologist to testify about something she says went down a couple weeks ago, when their daughters were staying with their father.

According to the docs, the ex-NBA star had a female friend and her daughter staying at his home during his parenting weekend with the daughters. Teyana's attorney says they know this because Teyana saw the woman's daughter and heard the woman during a FaceTime check-in with their daughters.

Las redadas en las casas de Diddy son solo el comienzo, los federales están emitiendo citaciones a las empresas que hacen negocios con él, con el objetivo de identificar a cualquier persona con información pertinente a la investigación de tráfico sexual... TMZ ha indagado.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que las citaciones -todas con el nombre real de Diddy, Sean Combs- fueron enviadas esta semana a varios proveedores vinculados al rapero, incluyendo su jet privado, proveedores de telefonía y empresas de informática.

Nos informan que las citaciones fueron realizadas por el Fiscal de EE.UU. para el Distrito Sur de Nueva York que, como hemos informado, está ejecutando la investigación.
