The Weeknd Scores His Fourth #1 Hit With “Heartless”
The Weeknd has scored his fourth #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 as his new single "Heartless" moved up from #32 on last week's list, which was only based on two days worth of streaming. His other single, "Blinding Lights," which was released a few days after "Heartless," debuted at #11. Suffice to say that Abel Tesfaye is as popular as ever. As Billboard reports, "Heartless" is the Weekend's fourth #1 song after "Can't Feel My Face," "The Hills," and "Starboy." He's had nine Top 10 hits in total. Perhaps a little surprisingly, it's only super-producer Metro Boomin's second #1 song after Migos and Lil Uzi Vert's "Bad And Boujee." Elsewhere on the charts, Christmas fever is starting in full force. Mariah Carey's 1994 classic "All I Want For Christmas Is You" has shot up to the #3 spot, matching its peak that it reached during the holiday season last year. There's a lot of speculation that Carey's old song might hit the #1 spot sometime this year thanks to streaming. Brenda Lee's 1960

How This African Woman Beat Global Odds To Become The 2019 Hero Of The Year
It may come across as absurd and preposterous but to this day, there is a stigma around adolescent females in the rural parts of one of the two African countries that were never colonised — Ethiopia. (Liberia is the other one.) In the rural parts of Ethiopia, young girls suffer because they are denied opportunities. And they are denied these opportunities just for being “human”. Yes, in some Ethiopian communities, young girls suffer ignominy and often drop out of school altogether just because of something as natural as menstruation. Yes, as many as half the girls in rural parts of Ethiopia miss school for reasons related to their periods — and that often hampers their education, and by extension, the rest of their lives. What an anomaly! Freweini Mebrahtu — an Ethiopian who has a degree in Chemical Engineering from the US — has dedicated her life fixing that anomaly. And for her efforts, she has been named the 2019 Hero of the Year by CNN.

The 10 Best Jazz Albums Of 2019
This wasn’t a year of radical transformation in the world of jazz. There was no single breakout star, and no explosion like the sudden realization last year that some really major shit was going down in London. But a tremendous amount of extraordinarily good music was released, and there was something for just about every taste. If you liked smooth modern jazz with one foot in R&B, then trumpeter Marquis Hill’s Love Tape was for you; if you wanted intricately composed chamber music, saxophonist Anna Webber’s Clockwise was a must-hear; if you wanted to throw your arms in the air and dance like a maniac, sax/synth/drums trio the Comet Is Coming had two records, Trust In The Lifeforce Of The Deep Mystery and The Aftermath, to play as loudly as your lease would allow. As always, there were deaths: the Art Ensemble Of Chicago’s Joseph Jarman, keyboardist/singer Dr. John, drummer Ginger Baker, pianists Michel Legrand, Harold Mabern, and Larry Willis, guitarist and longtime ECM Records
