Concerts playing Phoenix in October: J. Cole, Jonas Brothers, Maroon 5, Chris Stapleton

Country Thunder Arizona returns to a farm near Florence for a four-day festival that's expected to draw more than 100,000 country music fans over the course of the weekend in a month that also features several huge arena shows and amphitheater events.

That doesn't mean the COVID-19 delta variant has gone away. It's still out there spiking infection numbers.

But the concert industry has taken steps to try to make large gatherings less dangerous for everyone.

Starting on Oct. 4, all Live Nation concerts will require fans and artists to show proof of full vaccination or negative COVID-19 test results.

This follows a coalition of 17 major independent Arizona music venues requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test to attend a concert or event as of Sept. 20.

Here's a look at this month's concert highlights.

This tour is in support of "Jordi," which includes the triple-platinum Top 5 triumph "Memories" and the million-selling "Beautiful Mistakes" with Megan Thee Stallion. Reviews of the album suggested that Adam Levine and his bandmates may be past their prime, but a recent review of their Milwaukee date praised the pop-rock hit machine for defying critics with a lively set that touched on such obvious crowd-pleasing highlights as "Girls Like You" and "Sugar" after having set the tone with "Moves Like Jagger."

Details: 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 1. Ak-Chin Pavilion, 2121 N. 83rd Ave., Phoenix. $39.50 and up. 602-254-7200, livenation.com .

Quinn XCII and Chelsea Cutler bring their Stay Next to Me Tour to town with special guest Tai Verdes. Quinn XCII (pronounced Quinn Ninety Two) has earned more than 2.5 billion global streams thanks to hits as pervasive as “Straightjacket," “Flare Guns” (with Cutler), “Stacy" and “Love Me Less,” his breakthrough at Top 40 radio. He was named one of Rolling Stone’s Breakthrough Artists of 2019.

Details: 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 1. Arizona Federal Theatre, 400 W. Washington St., Phoenix. $24.50 and up. 800-745-300, ticketmaster.com .

The Queen of Funk grabbed the national spotlight at the helm of Rufus, the Chicago funk sensations who stormed the pop charts of 1974 with the million-selling, talk-box-rocking "Tell Me Something Good." Khan was still singing for Rufus in 1978 when she launched her solo career with the R&B chart-topper "I'm Every Woman," going on to win 10 Grammys. Other hits include "I Feel For You" and "Ain't Nobody."

Details: 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 1. Celebrity Theatre, 440 N. 32nd St., Phoenix. $65-$85. 602-267-1600, celebritytheatre.com .

State Champs

The fact that they recruited New Found Glory's Steve Klein to produce "The Finer Things," their first album, should give you a decent idea of what State Champs are all about — infectious pop-punk songcraft delivered with plenty of youthful abandon. Two albums later, they're heading to town in continued support of "Living Proof," on which their mastery of sugar-coated hooks remains as contagious as ever.

Details: 6:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 1. Marquee Theatre, 730 N. Mill Ave., Tempe. $28.50. 480-829-0607, luckymanonline.com .

Led by vocalist Ricky Muñoz and percussionist René Martinez, these regional Mexican music sensations, whose sound is a blend of Tejano and Norteño, have won two Grammys and took home a lifetime achievement award in 2012 from the Billboard Latin Music Awards. They're here on the Momentos Tour.

Details: 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 2. Celebrity Theatre, 440 N. 32nd St., Phoenix. $49-$105. 602-267-1600, celebritytheatre.com .

Knocked Loose

These explosive Kentucky-spawned hardcore sensations are touring the States with the Valley's own Gatecreeper on a bill that also features Magnitude and Kharma. They arrive in continued support of "A Different Shade of Blue," an album hailed in Kerrang! as "a masterclass in unrepentant brutality, smashing through genre boundaries without flinching."

Details: 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 2. Marquee Theatre, 730 N. Mill Ave., Tempe. $27. 480-829-0607, luckymanonline.com .

This tour is in support of "Flux," a contagious collection of frequently explosive rock songs incorporating elements of heavy metal, screamo, industrial, punk-rock and '90s alternative. "So Mean" is a total sugar rush that sounds like it was written after binging on Nirvana's "Nevermind" while watching Josie and the Pussycats. And that can only be a good thing. In March, she became the female artist in history to earn a Best Metal Performance Grammy nomination for "Bloodmoney" from her previous album.

Details: 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 2. The Van Buren, 401 W. Van Buren St., Phoenix. $37-$40. 866-468-3399, thevanburenphx.com .

The hit-filled album topped the charts in 13 countries on the way to the singer becoming the youngest artist ever to take home Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards. She's joined on this rescheduled tour celebrating the album's anniversary by fellow '90s alternative icons Garbage and Cat Power. This is the singer's first Phoenix performance since 2008.

Details: 7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 3. Ak-Chin Pavilion, 2121 N. 83rd Ave., Phoenix. $30 and up. 602-254-7200, livenation.com .

The 12-times-platinum triumph was the trio's second album, sending two songs — "Creep" and "Waterfalls" to No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100. In a press release, Thomas said, "This is the album that truly put us on the map and showed the world who we really are. So, this will be quite the celebration!"

After recording two breathtaking albums of cosmic American music with Gram Parsons, Harris made the most of that momentum with a second solo album that proved to be her mainstream breakthrough, "Pieces of the Sky," which spawned her first of several Top 10 efforts on the country charts, "If I Could Only Win Your Love."

The Motley Crue singer brings Kickstart! The Rock Show to Big Surf with fellow metal legend Lita Ford of the Runaways and an opening set by local TV star Wade Cota, an "American Idol" finalist. The show name, of course, is a reference to the Motley Crue classic "Kickstart My Heart," just one of four Top 40 singles that made the "Dr. Feelgood" album a six-times-platinum triumph and the Crue's best-selling album of all time.

Details: 6:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 8. Big Surf, 1500 N. McClintock Drive, Tempe. $45-$125. 480-994-2297, liveatbigsurf.com .

Flogging Molly & Violent Femmes

This co-headlining tour pairs Celtic punk sensations Flogging Molly and folk-punk standard-bearers Violent Femmes. The Femmes took college radio by storm with 1983's career-defining self-titled debut, which featured any number of their most neurotic calling cards, from "Blister in the Sun" to "Add It Up." Flogging Molly earned raves in 2017 for "Life Is Good," their latest album, hailed at SputnikMusic as "a cogent evolution in Flogging Molly's trademark Celtic folk sound."

Details: 5:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 8. Mesa Amphitheatre, 263 N. Center St. $50. 480-644-2560, mesaamp.com .

Their biggest stateside hit, "Sin Evidencias," reached the Hot Latin Tracks chart in 2009.

Judas Priest

The U.K. metal legends' U.S. breakthrough, "British Steel," arrived in 1980, spinning off two big rock-radio staples in "Breaking the Law" and "Living After Midnight." They'd been at it for more than a decade, though, before that record took them to the Stateside masses, which explains the title of their 50 Heavy Metal Years Tour. They're here with Sabaton in continued support of 2018's "Firepower" which became their highest-charting U.S. album when it peaked at No. 5.

Details: 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 9. Arizona Federal Theatre, 400 W. Washington St., Phoenix. $78.50 and up. 800-745-300, ticketmaster.com .

Fans can expect to hear such hits as "Stay A Little Longer," "It Ain't My Fault," "21 Summer," "Shoot Me Straight," "I Don't Remember Me (Before You)" and "All Night."

It wasn't long after returning to the road from an unplanned 16-month hiatus brought on by a global pandemic that ZZ Top suffered a more devastating loss — the death of founding bassist Dusty Hill. But they were back on stage with a replacement two days later. ZZ Top took their place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 on the strength of a legacy that evolved from the blues-rocking swagger of "La Grange" to the synthesized polish of their MTV hits.

Details: 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 10. The Pool at Talking Stick Resort, Loop 101 and Pima Road, Salt River Reservation. $35 and up. 480-850-7734, talkingstickresort.com .

They've gone Top 10 on the Billboard mainstream-rock charts no fewer than 24 times, with eight of those songs hit No. 1. And two of those chart-topping singles are from last year's "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum," released in their 21st year. Their earliest singles placed them squarely in the gloomy post-grunge camp. And as much as they haven't exactly abandoned the blueprint that made 2004's "Disclaimer II" a platinum hit here in the States, they have incorporated several new approaches through the years.

Details: 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 10. Marquee Theatre, 730 N. Mill Ave., Tempe. $42. 480-829-0607, luckymanonline.com .

Pushing the boundaries of experimental hip-hop, this Flatbush rapper made the rounds of critics' year-end lists with "Veteran" in 2018, living up to the hype on the following year's "All My Heroes Are Cornballs." As Sputnikmusic was moved to proclaim, "I see in its 45 minutes all the signs of a true classic, an album whose daring attitude and commitment to odd sonic luxuries future emissaries of the great tradition of experimental hip-hop music should only hope to emulate."

Then there's Bleachers, the "side band" he launched in 2014. They're playing Tempe in support of "Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night," the third album Bleachers have managed since fun.

Rancid and Dropkick Murphys are on a co-headlining tour called From Boston To Berkeley in honor of the scenes that spawned them. Each night will culminate with them sharing the stage together on a joint encore. The two have a long and significant history together. In 1997, Rancid’s Lars Frederiksen came across a copy of Dropkick Murphys’ original EP at a friend's house. He turned it over to his bandmate and Hellcat Records president Tim Armstrong, who quickly signed the Boston punks his new label. The show also features an opening set by the Bronx.

Conway the Machine

This rapper emerged from Buffalo, New York, alongside his half-brother Westside Gunn in the early 2010s, quickly building a buzz with a series of independent mixtapes and SoundCloud raps. When he finally dropped his first studio album, "From a King to God," in 2020, HipHopDX responded with "At this point, leaving Conway off of any list is a sign of willful ignorance, and he’s just getting started." He arrives at Crescent on the Love Will Get You Killed Tour with Stove God Cooks.

This soulful alternative R&B star was a highlight of the Pot of Gold Festival in 2019, singing and dancing her way through such obvious standouts as "Ride for Your Life," "Party Favors," "All Hands on Deck" and "2 On." She arrives in support of "333," an eclectic triumph whose strongest moments range from sultry slow jams (see the finger-popping opener "Let Go") to the skittering beats and vocal swagger of "I Can See the Future" and the speaker-rumbling groove of "Bouncin," a track that definitely lives up to its title.

Isaiah Rashad

A founding member of Tennessee hip-hop collective the House, this Southern rapper signed to Top Dawg Entertainment in 2013 and was named to the following year's XXL freshman class on the strength of his debut EP, "Clivia Demo." He's playing Phoenix in support of his highest-charting album yet, "The House is Burning," an effort Clash Music hailed as sounding "like a sonic encyclopedia of Southern rap reference points."

Psychedelic Furs

Led by the distinctive rasp of Richard Butler, the Furs are best remembered for such '80s New Wave classics as "Love My Way," "Pretty in Pink" and "Heartbreak Beat." And they're still adding to that legacy.

NME responded to the melancholy genius of "Collapsed in Sunbeams" with a five-star rave. "Arlo Parks may be the voice of Gen Z," it read, "but there’s no doubt that this is a universal collection of stories that’ll provide solace for listeners of all ages and backgrounds for decades to come." For now, she picked up Breakthrough Artist at the Brit Awards and the Mercury Prize (best album by a U.K. artist) while earning praise from Florence Welch, Billie Eilish, Phoebe Bridgers and Dua Lipa.

This Florida rapper went viral on YouTube and TikTok with 2019's "Heart on Ice," which peaked at No. 25 on Billboard's Hot 100. His debut album, "Ghetto Gospel," hit the charts at No. 10 that same year. Now, he's touring in support of this year's "Soulfly," an acclaimed third album that became his first release to top the charts. In reviewing the album, Uproxx said, "It's impressive that there are still artists who can do it with just a voice."

This Christian hip-hop artist signed to Reach after appearing on a song he'd placed on Lacrae's acclaimed 2010 release, "Rehab." Since then, he's topped the U.S. Christian charts with three albums — "Heroes for Sale," "Uncomfortable" and the collaborative "Andy Mineo and Wordsplayed Present Magic & Bird."

Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Evening

Jason Bonham celebrates the life and music of his legendary father, John Bonham, who beat the drums into submission for Led Zeppelin until his death in 1980. Eight years after the iconic drummer's death, Jason Bonham appeared on stage with Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, performing as Led Zeppelin at the Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary concert. In 2007, he played another Led Zeppelin reunion at London's O2 Arena.

Erykah Badu

She may be best remembered in the mainstream for her Grammy-winning triple-platinum debut, 1997's "Baduizm." But Badu has more than made good on the promise of that soulful breakthrough, kicking off the century with "Mama's Gun" and returning from five years of silence with a two-part masterpiece — "New Amerykah Part One (4th World War)" in 2008 and "New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh)" in 2010. And when she puts it all together live, the result is amazing.

Machine Gun Kelly

Machine Gun Kelly is hitting the road for the first time since the release of his chart-topping “Tickets to My Downfall" album, which brought in raves from Billboard ("dazzlingly effective songs”), Vulture ("punk rock excellence") and NME (“brilliant”). Machine Gun Kelly kicked off 2021 entertaining home viewers from Times Square at "Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin' Eve," followed by an appearance on "Saturday Night Live."

When Jerry Garcia died in 1995, Phish emerged as the clear heir apparent to the Grateful Dead as the jam-rock band most likely to inspire cult-like levels of devotion with the improvisational brilliance of their live aesthetic. They've got the creativity, the chops, the eccentricity, the sense of humor and a vision all-encompassing enough to make a 19-minute jam feel absolutely necessary. And here's the thing that makes this concert even more exciting for their Arizona fans. They haven't been here since 2003.

A Day to Remember

These metalcore veterans are headed to Phoenix on their first tour in two years, aptly titled the Re-Entry Tour, with Asking Alexandria and Point North. The tour is in support of a new album called "You’re Welcome." Riff Magazine praised the effort for carrying on their tradition of "being predictably unpredictable" in the course and whose "detours are more surprising and varied than any record in the band’s catalog."

Details: 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 22. Arizona Federal Theatre, 400 W. Washington St., Phoenix. $49.50 and up. 800-745-300, ticketmaster.com .

Cradle of Filth

These English metal veterans are about to drop the long-awaited follow-up to “Cryptoriana – The Seductiveness of Decay,” a symphonic adrenaline rush with haunting gothic overtones and operatic touches offset by plenty of throat-shredding grunts and shrieks. Kerrang! praised the album for having “created a gothic horror that makes Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' look like 'The Emoji Movie.'” There's also plenty of fleet-fingered dual-guitar harmonies from the Iron Maiden school of lead guitar.

Details: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 20. Marquee Theatre, 730 N. Mill Ave., Tempe. $37.50. 480-829-0607, luckymanonline.com.

Colter Wall

This Canadian singer-songwriter has a baritone as deep as Johnny Cash and if the songs he writes are closer to the folk traditions of a young Bob Dylan than the sort of stuff you'd hear on country radio in 2021, that didn't stop him from titling his latest effort "Western Swing & Waltzes and Other Punchy Songs." The reviewer at Pitchfork praised his "charred, whiskey-soaked baritone that belies his years" and his "colorful tales of the western frontier and the folk heroes who populate it."

Details: 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 22. The Van Buren, 401 W. Van Buren St., Phoenix. $25-$28. 866-468-3399, thevanburenphx.com.

Alejandro Fernandez

The son of ranchero singer Vicente Fernández has earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and two Latin Grammys in the course of selling more than 20 million records worldwide. He's joined on his fall tour by Alex Fernández, his son. A portion of proceeds are earmarked for Families Belong Together, a campaign of the National Domestic Workers Alliance that works to end family separation and promote dignity, unity and compassion.

Details: 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 24. Arizona Federal Theatre, 400 W. Washington St., Phoenix. $50.50 and up. 800-745-300, ticketmaster.com .

John Fogerty

He fronted Creedence Clearwater Revival, whose hits include such American rock 'n' roll classics as "Proud Mary," "Bad Moon Rising," "Green River," "Down on the Corner," "Travelin' Band," "Up Around the Bend," "Run Through the Jungle," "Lookin' Out My Back Door," "Hey Tonight," "Sweet Hitch-Hiker," "Fortunate Son" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?" And there's a pretty decent chance you'll hear them all alongside solo hits as timeless as "The Old Man Down the Road" and "Centerfield."

Chicano Batman

These LA rockers filter old-school funk and soul through elements of psychedelic pop and Tropicalia for an end result that couldn't feel more timeless. They're here in support of "Invisible People," a 2020 effort they've bill as "a statement of hope, a proclamation that we are all invisible people, and that despite race, class, or gender we can overcome our differences and stand together." Pitchfork said this is "far and away Chicano Batman’s most accessible record, with big, clean hooks to match definitive statements."

Details: 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 24. The Van Buren, 401 W. Van Buren St., Phoenix. $25-$28. 866-468-3399, thevanburenphx.com .

Dead & Company

Speaking of the Grateful Dead, three days after Phish, three former members of the Dead — singer-guitarist Bob Weir and drummers Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann — are joined by John Mayer, Oteil Burbridge and Jeff Chimenti. They tour as Dead & Company, a brand they launched in 2015 to honor the 50th anniversary of the Grateful Dead. In reviewing the opening night of this year's tour, Rolling Stone wrote "Six years after forming the band, Mayer appeared confident and even comfortable performing Jerry Garcia’s parts, interlocking guitars with Weir and sharing vocal duties throughout."

Primus pay tribute to prog legends Rush with A Tribute to Kings, a cross-country tour that finds the trio playing Rush's "A Farewell to Kings" in its entirety, in addition to their own music. In a press release, bandleader Les Claypool explained that "A Farewell to Kings" was the first Rush record he had ever heard and also happens to include his all-time favorite Rush song, "Cygnus X1."

These LA-based indie-folk heroes are touring the States in support of "Long Lost," their third release to top the American/Folk charts. American Songwriter called the album "an opus of sorts, a fully realized work that’s epic, intriguing, expansive, and yet introspective." Flood Magazine called it "a truly immersive parallel universe ... in which the past and the present, reality and fiction, all collide and coexist as one."

Jonas Brothers

The Jonas Brothers Happiness Begins tour in 2019 sold more than 1.2 million tickets and grossed more than $120 million on a wave of reunion nostalgia. In a press release for this tour, the brothers said, "If this past year has taught us anything it’s that we need to remember the important moments in our lives. We hope these shows will be special moments for our fans, our friends and our families and we can’t wait to see all their faces soon!”

Soccer Mommy

Sophie Allision hits downtown Phoenix in support of last year's awe-inspiring "Color Theory," a deeply introspective journey that found her couching sadness, some of it inspired by her mother being diagnosed with terminal cancer, in seemingly effortless pop sensibilities and occasional flashes of gallows humor. At times, the songs recall the best of '90s alt-pop legend Juliana Hatfield (and occasionally Courtney Love) in the way it filters raw, emotionally devastating subject matter through contagious pop hooks.

Stephen Marley

The eight-time Grammy-winner is swinging through the Valley on his Babylon By Bus Tour, named in honor of a legendary live release recorded by his dad, Bob Marley, in the '70s. Marley promises a mixture of his own hits spanning a career of more than 40 years and selections from his father's catalog. A dollar from each ticket will be donated to the Ghetto Youths Foundation, a non-profit founded by Stephen, Damian and Julian Marley to provide aid, assistance, resources and opportunity to communities in need.

These Philly rockers eased into their 2020 Innings Festival performance with an understated verse of the suitably breezy “The Breeze" before fleshing it out with a gorgeous wall of Beach Boys-worthy harmonies. That sun-kissed psychedelic pop lane has been their comfort zone for years now, led bassist Toby Leaman and guitarist Scott McMicken, both of whom were apparently born to not only compose but deliver the bittersweet pop hooks at the heart of their best work.

The post-hardcore veterans are touring on "Horizons/East," their long-awaited follow-up to 2018's "Palms." According to Epitaph Records, the album finds them addressing "with candor and courage, the fragile and awkward arrangements that pass for civilization while inviting us to dwell more knowingly within our own lives." It also promises "a profoundly meditative work which serves as a musical summons to everyday attentiveness" without surrendering the energy or edge of their previous albums.

Details: 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 28. Marquee Theatre, 730 N. Mill Ave., Tempe. $27. 480-829-0607, luckymanonline.com.

The industrial metal pioneers return to Tempe's Marquee Theatre in support of the much-anticipated "Moral Hygiene," their 15th studio album, which follows 2018's politically charged "AmeriKKKant." In announcing the album on Ministry's website, the band said it's safe to expect "some of Ministry’s strongest and most inspired material to date" with lyrics putting forth Al Jourgensen’s "societal manifesto and plea for civilization to get back to a set of standards that lives up to and embraces our humanity."

Chris Stapleton

He hasn't been here since 2019, bringing Country Thunder Arizona to a fiery conclusion in his first appearance at the festival with a headlining set that was soulful, authentic, impassioned and raw. There are times when his music is closer to Southern rock — even garage-rock — than country. And those times are brilliant. But he's definitely country, with a Waylon-worthy swagger to his more traditional approaches to the genre. His hits include "Tennessee Whiskey," "Broken Halos," "Millionaire" and "Parachute."

Dream Theater

The progressive-metal pioneers are bringing the Top of the World Tour to Mesa with Arch Echo opening. The tour takes its name from "A View from the Top of the World," an album written and recorded during a global pandemic that force them to return home early from a sold-out world tour in support of their previous album, "Distance Over Time," and the 20th anniversary of "Scenes From A Memory."

Details: 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 28. Mesa Arts Center, 1 E. Main St. $40-$66. 480-644-6500, mesaartscenter.com .

Marc Anthony

In addition to being the best-selling tropical salsa artist ever, with worldwide album sales of more than 12 million, Anthony has won two Grammys and six Latin Grammys. He's also had two Top 5 entries on the Billboard Hot 100, 1999's "I Need to Know" and the following year's "You Sang to Me." Those singles also took him to No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Latin Songs Chart, as did 1997's "Y Hubo Alguien," 2004's "Ahora Quien" and 2013's "Vivir Mi Vida," a Khaled song reimagined as a salsa tune.

Produced by Live Nation, the tour will include Young Thug (in select cities). The Phoenix show will be held at Talking Stick Resort Arena. J. Cole will also make stops in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles and more before the final show in Boston on October 10. For the full schedule, see below.

Released via Dreamville with distribution through Roc Nation/Interscope Records, KOD arrived on April 20 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking J. Cole’s fifth consecutive No. 1 on the chart.

Born Jermaine Lamarr Cole on 28 January 1985, but known by his musical alias J. Cole, this hip-hop artist grew up in North Carolina. He has a German mother and African-American father.

Cole was interested in music at the tender age of 12 and began working on his rapping skills during his teen hood. He moved to New York City to study at St. John’s University just so he could find more opportunities to grow his music career. He released several mixtapes following graduation: “The Come Up” in 2007 and “The Warm Up” in June 2009. Cole persistently sought the attention of hip hop artist and producer Jay-Z and his efforts were rewarded soon after.

J. Cole collaborated with several high profile hip hop artists in the next years including Jay-Z, Talib Kweli, and B.o.B. After gaining some experience and cementing a deal with Jay-Z’s label Roc Nation, J.Cole dropped his single “Who Dat” in 2010. The single was a prequel to his third mixtape entitled “Friday Night Lights” which debuted the same year. J.Cole began supporting hip hop superstars Rihanna and Drake on tour, which helped to increase his fanbase.

Roc Nation produced J.Cole’s debut album “Cole World: The Sideline Story” and it dropped on 27 September 2011 to rave reviews. The album jumped to the top of the Billboard 200 and features big names like Drake, Missy Elliott, Trey Songz, and of course Jay-Z. His success led to a nomination for “Best New Artist at the 2012 Grammy Awards.

J.Cole’s sophomore album “Born Sinner” followed in the footsteps of his first album. It was released in 2013 and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. The album features guest artists TLC, Miguel, and Kendrick Lamar. J. Cole has since established his own label called Dreamville Records.

J.Cole cites Canibus and Eminem as his musical inspirations. He also grew up listening to his father’s favorite artists 2Pac and Ice Cube and his mother’s favorite genres: folk and rock.

Live reviews

J. Cole is sometimes an underappreciated artist and I believe that the astuteness of his lyrics are not given enough credit. As a huge fan, I knew I couldn’t miss his live performance in London (December 2013) as soon as I heard of it. At the Hammersmith Apollo, the anxiety of the fans was notorious. After jamming to hot hip-hop tracks with Tim Westwood in the pre-show, it was nice to see another Dreamville member doing his thing as Bas stepped on stage. For a rap artist, Cole made quite a big entrance, which included great lighting and some amazing background singers. In this concert, he sang most of the “Born Sinner” tracks (“Crooked Smile,” “Power Trip,” “She Knows" and “Forbidden Fruit” – to name a few,) his latest album at the time of the event, which was expected by the fans. But that was far from being his setlist. He managed to include hits from his first album as well as songs from his mixtapes, which were even better received from the audience. Although some rappers tend to not sing the whole tracks or skip the chorus vocals, Cole gave it all and sang every verse, keeping the energy high. One of the most memorable moments was when he started singing “Light Please” in a very calm ambient, giving room for the fans who followed him from the start to sing along. But what really marked me in his show was not only his honest and down-to-earth talks in between songs, but the fact he gave the fans a chance to choose extra songs. As a result, he sang a few unexpected tracks like “Back to the Topic” from a mixtape and also “Is She Gon Pop” from the latest album. In sum, J. Cole didn’t disappoint at all and totally made my trip worthwhile. In fact, he made me want to keep following his work and be attentive to future shows.

Report as inappropriate

J Cole was absolutely insane at O2!! I had the time of my life listening to my favourite artist live! As corny as it sounds, I could feel like the music in my whole body and could feel the emotion in every lyric he sang. If you're a Cole fan, I definitely recommend going to see him live because it will multiply the love you have for him because he's just so fucking incredible at connecting with the audience! His narrative and general stage presence is so intense there were so many moments I felt completely surreal jumping and singing to his voice. Such a memorable and perfect night I can't even properly word it!! The supporting acts (Ari Lennox and Earthgang - J.I.D was also there but I missed him I think) were also brilliant. Having the crowd chant 'Fuck Donald Trump!' really got me pumped (Earthgang), and overall, J Cole managed to keep everyone in the audience jumping, shouting, dancing and sweating till the very last second. I didn't know what and how much I was missing out on before I went to this concert, and every time he confirms a tour, I'll be the first to book tickets because he's a fucking legend who can sing, rap and write the most awe-inspiring songs!

Jermaine Lamarr Cole, better known by his stage name of J. Cole is an elusive visitor to the British isles yet when he does happen to appear, his devoted fan base flock to see this talented artist perform live. An intelligent lyricist and a sincere live performer, as the house lights fall on the hushed chatter of the crowd, Cole appears in humble manner leading on his band and backing singers.

The sound is near perfect in the venue and you can hear every single word perfectly annunciated during opener 'Trouble'. The crowd has clearly been waiting a while to see Jermaine perform as they sing back the lyrics with such force and dedication. Cole thanks them profusely for this before moving on to other fan favourites such as 'Nobody's Perfect', his collaboration with Mary J. Blige.

The speed in which Cole can freestyle keeps the audience cheering along yet it is early singles 'Who Dat' and 'Can't Get Enough' that send them into frenzy. Clearly enjoying himself onstage, J. Cole performs huge versions of these tracks before thanking the crowd for enjoying a show they will not be forgetting anytime soon.

J. Cole last night was amazing. Bringing his dreamville team he had Bas, Cozz and Omen warm up the crowd with beats that got us all searching em up on our way home from the venue.

Soon J.Cole walks on stage and the crowd is screaming, cheering for 5 min straight, everybody in the venue is standing up, jumping with excitement. And the excitement is getting more and more real as he preforms every song from his new "forest hills drive" album along with some old joints from his album "The Sideline Story" like "work out" and "lights please".

The vibe is intimate and turnt at the same time in the little venue sentrum scene in Oslo is. He takes time to appreciate everybody that came out to see him and deliver an amazing music experience with his rhymes and presence.

Thank YOU Cole.

The whole lineup was phenomenal! He really inspired and made it very personal. That is what an artist is suppose to do. He performed the whole album and a few from his previous albums. I have been a J. Cole fan since day one. When my boyfriend and I were just best friends singing "Best Friend" and that being my ringtone to "just like a star" and just growing with his music. My boyfriend is an aspiring rapper and honestly this concert gave him the motivation, while listening to J.Cole I watch my boyfriends eyes light up while the hair stood up on his arms. J.Cole please come back again. We will always be a fan!

You put on a great show Big Sean, great, Jeremih, awesome and YG we want more music you had the crowd going!

Best concert I've been to in a while!

I saw J cole last night in Dublin, it was the most amazing experience of my life,

He truly is an amazing person and He showed us his past and let us see what each song was about, which I thought was a great add to the concert and made it more personal. If I could, I would repeat last night over and over again, and I would never get sick of it, j cole is a MUST SEE, also such a kind man Aswel, have huge respect for him and his opinions. Also- as he told us last night he has a bit of Irish in him as his grandmother went on the boat from ireland to America, and his grandmother gave birth to his mother, and his mother gave birth to J Cole. How amazing is that !!!!

One of the best shows I've ever had the pleasure of attending. At first, I was pissed that I couldn't find a date, despite getting the tickets months in advance. However, before long, Cole made me forget all about my dismal love life, and reminded me of why I do my social activism. If we don't demand change, we'll keep getting a red, white, blue dildo jammed up our rear ends. To put it another way, change is inevitable. Will it be ultimately for the better or worst, is the question though. Also, what will we tell our children's children when they ask us what did we honestly do to make the world a better place for them?

Hooooly shit was that good! This man knows how to put on a show, I tell you hwat! Even though the band wasn't featured, we knew they were there, and the musicianship was stellar. The man who was featured delivered the goods. He didn't just stand there, hiding behind a fancy coat, sunglasses and a crap-ton of bling. He brought energy and feeling to his set that made his openers' sets feel lackluster. When he spoke, I believed him. I felt his heart. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

Oh, and kudos to Honda Center and the soundsystem. Really good sound isn't always easy to come by in an arena, and they killed it!

Beyond my expectations! J Cole is so humble, speaks the truth and really wants to resonate his energy, thoughts, beliefs, and opinions with his audience! Not only did he play songs from his current hit album, 4 Your Eyes Only but hit it back to 2014, Forest Hill Drive and if you were digging him from the beginning with songs such as Nobody's Perfect etc. It was an amazing concert and I'm glad I went. It's all about investment. You either are willing to spend a certain amount of money, in them good seats and see and hear J Cole, or you couldn't be bothered. For me, the investment was worthwhile!

The best concert ever Jermaine (j.cole) is truly an amazing soul he performed for 2 hours nonstop ! Interacted with his supporters you can't really say that about other rappers who just perform for 30 minutes and go about their day , also in the show j.cole explained his songs from the album and also picked a fan to sing with him it was an amazing experience I was on the big screen twice & and he acknowledged my poster this was my first time seeing him but it won't be my last ! I love you Jermaine Lamarr Cole Thank you so much for last night .

Live updates, country star colt ford says he ‘died two times’ after suffering a heart attack.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Colt Ford has no recollection of the night in April when he had a heart attack after a performance in Phoenix, Arizona.

The country musician detailed what he could remember of the “traumatic, crazy experience” in an interview on the “Big D & Bubba” show, where he revealed he died twice before reaching the hospital.

“I didn’t even remember coming out here to do a show in Phoenix, and apparently we played this great, sold-out show and it was incredible,” Ford said in a phone interview. “I walked back to the bus, texted my fiancée, ‘Hi baby,’ and fell over dead.

“I died two times. Luckily, my band came out to check on me. … All of a sudden, that’s when all hell broke loose.”

Ford, 54, had recently played a show at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row in Gilbert, Arizona, his representative said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital at the time.

At one point, he was in “stable, but critical condition in the ICU.”

He admitted that after texting his fiancée, “I don’t remember anything.”

Ford was told he was transferred to another hospital that could provide better care, and he “died on the way over” to that center, but medics “brought me back, saved my life.”

Colt Ford performs at Skydeck at Assembly Food Hall in Nashville, Tenn. on Aug. 17, 2023.

“The Lord had more for me to do, more music for me to make, hopefully more differences to make in some people’s lives,” he said.

After waking up two days later, doctors gave him a grim reality of what they believed to be his chance of survival.

Ford, whose full name is Jason Farris Brown, said his doctor told him, “I wouldn’t have given you 1%, I would have given you 0.1% that you would have survived.”

“I had so much trauma to my body and my heart, they had to put three stents in,” Ford said. “There’s just so much going on, and then all of a sudden my gall bladder crapped out on me.”

Despite the traumatic incident, the “Slow Ride” singer is grateful for another chance to experience life again.

“The overwhelming support and love I have felt … I get emotional talking about it. I have been an emotional wreck since I’ve been in here,” he said.

“It’s been life-changing. It’s been spiritually changing. Obviously, it’s been physically changing. It’s just been a crazy. … I’m not still a hundred percent out of the woods yet. I’m gonna have to learn how to be a little selfish for a while before I get myself better.

“This changed my perspective and outlook on lots of things. Live every day like it’s your last because one day it will be.”

Ford was told he was transferred to another hospital that could provide better care, and he "died on the way over" to that center, but medics "brought me back, saved my life."

Ford also noted he’s making the most of his health now.

“I’m gonna try to come back bigger and stronger and better than ever,” he said.

Part 5: Math Hoffa on Drake "Push Ups": There was A Lot of Thought Put Into That Unlike w/ Pusha T Part 3: Math Hoffa on Drake Being Canadian Dictator & Stealing Rappers' Women, J. Cole vs. Kendrick Part 1: Math Hoffa on His Original "My Expert Opinion" Co-Hosts No Longer Being Part of the Show

Notable battle rapper Math Hoffa discussed the escalating feud within the hip-hop industry. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of the industry, Hoffa asserted that J. Cole had backed away from his alliance with Drake in a manner resembling that of AZ’s character in the film "Belly." He went on to criticize J. Cole’s choice to respond to criticism and later apologize, stating that this behavior is at odds with his decade-long reputation for talking smack - a viewpoint shared by Kanye West. The conversation also touched on J. Cole’s bold and controversial criticisms of the industry, including his diss tracks towards Iggy Azalea, Lil Pump, and Kanye.

Ye Premieres "Like That" Remix Dissing Drake and J. Cole: ‘Dot I Got You’

After the remix leaked online, the rapper debuted his verse on 'The Download' with Justin Laboy.

Ye premiered his diss verse aimed at Drake and J. Cole , on a remix to Metro Boomin and Future 's "Like That," after a leak of the track circulated online earlier this weekend.

While paying a visit to Justin LaBoy's The Download , Ye debuted the remix that contained a new verse from him, as well as a new set of bars from Ty Dolla $ign and Future. In the track, Ye makes it clear whose side he's on in the ongoing hip-hop civil war, starting his verse off with: "You know we had to get the hooligans up here to get these pussy n***as out, yo Dot I got you."

In the verse, Ye takes shots at Drake, rapping, "It's a wrap for n***as/ Where's Lucian, serve your master, n***a/ You caught a little bag for your masters didn't ya/ Lifetime deal I feel bad for n***as."

He also takes aim at Cole:

"Y'all so out of sight, out of mind / I can't even think of a Drake line / Play J. Cole, get the pussy dry," he raps.

Listen to the full verse below.

YE PREMIERES "LIKE THAT" REMIX ON @TheDownloadShow @KanyeWest HE REALLY LIKE THAT #Respectfully pic.twitter.com/ADZLzHzU1b — Respectfully Justin (@JustinLaboy) April 20, 2024

The Chicago rap legend also shared a NSFW meme of a woman pleasuring a man after learning he doesn't listen to Cole, which references a line on his "Like That" remix: "Play J. Cole, get the p***y dry."

Ye has a long history of conflict with Drake and J. Cole. Drake has thrown both subliminals and direct shots at Ye on various tracks, while Cole took the subtle approach and talked about him falling from grace on the song "False Prophets."

pic.twitter.com/HSinrSwAd1 — ye (@kanyewest) April 20, 2024

Ye's verse arrives a month after he claimed he "washed" Kendrick Lamar on The Life of Pablo song "No More Parties In LA" and Drake at their benefit concert calling for the release of Larry Hoover .

"Everyone knows I washed Kendrick on No More Parties in LA," wrote Ye. "Everyone knows I washed Drake at the Free Hoover concert. everyone knows I brought Adidas into this culture and I took them out. Everyone knows lotta Demna Virgil Jerry Kim all worked for me. I made Yeezus Dark Fantasy Pablo Graduation Throne 808s. I made Runaway Devil in a New Dress Father Stretch. I am the only person to come back to number one after cancellation. There is only one goat. I stand by me My friends call me ye :)."

Donald Trump again attacked Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the independent presidential candidate who polls suggest is taking some support from Trump voters , in a post on his social media site, pleading that Republicans “don’t waste your precious vote on this phony liberal activist” while also insisting that Kennedy’s candidacy hurts President Biden more than it hurts him.

In an interview with local television in Waukesha, Wis., Donald Trump again said he would not sign a national abortion ban if elected , after a wide-ranging interview with Time magazine in which he suggested he would consider other federal abortion limits. He has struggled to strike a balance between siding with the anti-abortion activists who helped elect him in 2016 and what he sees as a risk to his electability.

Anjali Huynh

Trump has finished speaking in Freeland, Mich., where he blasted his New York criminal trial, laying into the judge who fined him, falsely suggesting the case amounts to political persecution and claiming, without evidence, that the trial is helping his poll numbers. The comments, among the first he’s made on the trail since the trial started, show how he plans to use the trial to rally supporters whenever he can hit the road.

In Michigan, Donald J. Trump again insists abortion should be left “to the states,” rather than supporting a federal ban. He praised the justices who overturned Roe but alluded to the electoral risk to Republicans, saying, “A lot of bad things will happen beyond the abortion issue, if you don’t win elections.” Kamala Harris, in Florida today, tried to make Trump the face of the state’s six-week abortion ban.

Michael Gold

At his second rally of the day, Donald J. Trump has spoken far more extensively about his criminal trial in New York, though he is mostly expounding on his view that the trial is, as he put it, “an unlawful exercise in very stupid and very evil politics” that is keeping him from campaigning.

Former President Donald J. Trump has taken the stage in Freeland, Mich., a state he visited last month for an event focused on illegal immigration and border policy. He opened today by briefly praising Mike Rogers, the Republican he endorsed in Michigan’s Senate race, before pivoting to criticizing the economy under President Biden.

Migrant crossings on the U.S.-Mexico border have dropped significantly in the first three months of the year, according to official figures , from a peak of 301,981 in December to under 200,000 a month from January to March. That could ease political pressure on President Biden, but Republicans are likely to continue attacking him by pointing out that border crossings remain relatively high.

Donald J. Trump, at a rally in Waukesha, Wis., called for tougher action against campus protests and again suggested some of the protesters were paid actors. He called on college presidents to “remove the encampments immediately, vanquish the locals and take back our campuses for all of the normal students.”

At his rally in Wisconsin, former President Donald J. Trump is again trying to walk a fine line on abortion. He is celebrating that the issue was returned to states after Supreme Court justices he appointed overturned Roe, while also criticizing Democrats for being too liberal and anti-abortion activists who are pushing for broader bans.

Former President Donald J. Trump, who has campaigned on a tough law-and-order message while facing criminal charges and criticizing the legal system, commended the New York police for arresting dozens of pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Columbia University. “That’s one good thing that really happened,” he said, adding later, “It was a beautiful thing to watch.”

Nicholas Nehamas

On the day that a six-week abortion ban went into effect in Florida, Vice President Kamala Harris warned a crowd in Jacksonville that Donald J. Trump would bring “more bans, more suffering, less freedom,” if he won in November. Harris and Democrats have sought to tie abortion bans directly to Trump, seeing abortion as a winning political issue.

Donald J. Trump at a rally in Waukesha, Wis., again contended without evidence that the protests at college campuses over the war in Gaza were an effort by the left to distract attention from the surge of migrants at the border. “Some people are saying they do the colleges so they can get your eyes off the border,” he said, repeating an assertion that he made on social media last night.

Donald J. Trump just took the stage in Waukesha, Wis., for his first rally since his trial in New York began. He noted that Republicans would hold their national convention in Milwaukee in July, telling the crowd of hundreds of his supporters, “That means you’ve got to vote for us because we’re spending our money in your state.”

Alyce McFadden

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. proposed that his campaign and President Biden’s campaign jointly conduct a poll in October to see who would do better against former President Donald J. Trump in a hypothetical two-way race. He teased the idea that the underperformer should drop out. But Biden really has no incentive to do this, and by October, it'd be too late drop off the ballot anyway.

Rebecca Davis O’Brien

The Libertarian Party is one of the more established third parties — it is on 37 state ballots, with plans for more. Angela McArdle, the party’s chair, said: “For 50 years, we’ve been trying to get our candidates on the main stage with major party POTUS candidates and we’ve finally succeeded in bringing one to our stage. We will do everything in our power to use this incredible opportunity to advance the message of liberty.”

Shane Goldmacher

Former President Donald J. Trump called Libertarians “some of the most independent and thoughtful thinkers” ahead of his speech to the party later this month and urged them “to remember that our goal is to defeat” President Biden. He added, “If Libertarians join me and the Republican Party, where we have many Libertarian views, the election won’t even be close.”

Reid J. Epstein

The Biden video, recorded Tuesday when he was in Wilmington, Del., is part of the Biden campaign’s effort to extend the news cycle surrounding former President Donald J. Trump’s interview with Time. Polling has shown abortion rights is Biden’s best issue against Trump; talking points the campaign sent to surrogates Tuesday urged them to focus attention on Trump’s abortion comments.

President Biden called former President Donald J. Trump’s comments on abortion in the Time interview published yesterday “shocking” in a video released by the president’s campaign Wednesday . “This should be a decision between a woman and her doctor,” Biden said. “And the government should get out of people’s lives.”

The Libertarian Party's invitation to Trump, to speak at the party's national convention , is an intriguing one at a moment when third-party candidates and ballot lines are a major focus of the 2024 race. A Trump spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Neil Vigdor

Newt Gingrich, the former Republican House speaker, compared the student protesters who occupied a building at Columbia University to Juan M. Merchan, the judge presiding over Donald J. Trump’s criminal trial in New York. It was not the first time that he tried to make such an equivalency in Trump’s defense. In 2018, he likened the F.B.I. probe into Russia’s election interference to the “Gestapo.”

Michael Gold and Anjali Huynh

Michael Gold reported from Waukesha, Wis., and Anjali Huynh from Freeland, Mich.

Trump praises police crackdowns on campus protests.

Holding his first campaign rallies since his criminal trial in Manhattan began, former President Donald J. Trump on Wednesday urged college presidents to take a tougher approach to protests over the war in Gaza that have swept across campuses and praised police action at the demonstrations.

Calling protesters “raging lunatics” and suggesting without any evidence that they were hired by liberal groups to draw attention away from the surge of migrants at the border, Mr. Trump commended New York City police officers who, in riot gear, arrested dozens of pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Columbia University and cleared a building that they had occupied.

Speaking to supporters in Waukesha, Wis., Mr. Trump called for similar actions at universities across the country.

“To every college president, I say remove the encampments immediately,” he said. “Vanquish the radicals and take back our campuses for all of the normal students.”

Both in Wisconsin and at a later rally in Freeland, Mich., Mr. Trump promoted a strong a law-and-order message, even as he contends with a criminal case in New York in which he is accused of falsifying business records to cover up a sex scandal.

Mr. Trump, who on Tuesday was held in contempt and fined $9,000 for violating a gag order in the trial that bars him from attacking witnesses and jurors, criticized the order. He laid into the judge who fined him, calling him “crooked” and “conflicted” at both rallies.

“I have a judge who gags me,” Mr. Trump said. “I’m not allowed to talk about things. And nobody’s seen anything quite like it.”

And he reiterated his typical complaints about the criminal case: that it is a sham, that it is impossible for him to get a fair trial in deep-blue Manhattan and that the whole ordeal amounts to political persecution by President Biden — a claim made without a shred of evidence but that has helped him bolster support among his base.

“What you’re witnessing in New York is not a legal proceeding — it’s an unlawful exercise in very stupid and very evil politics,” he said.

As Mr. Trump is tied down in court proceedings, he and Republicans have seized on the campus demonstrations as a wedge issue. They hope to foment discontent among Mr. Biden’s Democratic base over his handling of Israel, while also pointing to the protests to support Mr. Trump’s frequent contention that Mr. Biden is a weak leader.

In the past week, Mr. Trump has also used the protests to diminish violent episodes involving right-wing extremists that took place during his presidency. He tried to downplay the deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, by calling it “peanuts” compared with the campus protests. One woman was killed and nearly 40 people were injured when a neo-Nazi plowed his car through a crowd of counterprotesters in Charlottesville.

And building on his bid to portray federal prosecutors as politically motivated, Mr. Trump suggested the government would be lenient with the protesters, comparing them to supporters who he has said were treated harshly after they stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in a bid to overturn his 2020 election loss.

Though he has made small campaign stops in New York City, Mr. Trump has in the weeks since his trial started been visible more as a criminal defendant than as a political candidate. A planned rally in North Carolina last month was canceled at the last minute because of weather.

“I’ve got to do two of these things a day,” Mr. Trump told the crowd in Michigan. “You know why? Because I’m in New York all the time with the Biden trial.”

Mr. Trump’s energetic demeanor at Wednesday’s rallies stood in stark contrast to the stern speeches he has given in the hallway outside the courtroom, and to reports from the court that depict him as dour, glowering or, at times, asleep. He bantered lightly with members of the crowd in both states and repeatedly expressed pride at the size of his crowds.

But Mr. Trump’s dark, and sometimes coarse, campaign message has changed little. He again argued that Mr. Biden’s leadership was steering the country toward doomsday and stoked fears about immigration, accusing Democrats of creating “mayhem” at the border. He also repeated unsubstantiated claims that Democrats were encouraging migration in order to register undocumented immigrants to vote.

On a day when abortion was in the spotlight again, with Florida’s six-week ban taking effect and Arizona lawmakers repealing their state’s 1864 ban , Mr. Trump largely kept his focus elsewhere. But he defended his position in an effort to neutralize an issue that Democrats hope to make central in 2024.

Mr. Trump has tried a balancing act on the issue, arguing that all abortion rights should be left to the states even as he has voiced opposition toward strict six-week bans. And he stressed the need to consider the political implications of calling for further abortion restrictions as Republicans try to win in November, saying in Michigan that “a lot of bad things will happen beyond the abortion issue, if you don’t win elections.”

In Wisconsin, he presented his views as a kind of compromise. “Some people will be very happy,” he said. “Some people won’t be as happy. But time will make this.”

Still, in Michigan, he praised the conservative justices who had overturned Roe v. Wade, singling them each out by name. His remarks there came shortly after Vice President Kamala Harris visited Florida , where she called the state’s new restrictions “another Trump abortion ban,” part of a larger effort by Democrats to tie Mr. Trump to strict limits on the procedure.

At both rallies, Mr. Trump also railed against Mr. Biden’s handling of the economy, arguing that the president’s economic policies were hurting the middle class and that Mr. Biden had not done enough to fight inflation.

Both parties are focused intently on winning Michigan and Wisconsin, two battleground states that were critical to Mr. Trump’s 2016 victory but flipped to Mr. Biden in 2020. Mr. Trump visited both states last month, shortly before his New York criminal trial began.

The Republican National Committee is holding its 2024 convention in Milwaukee, which Mr. Trump acknowledged in nearby Waukesha. “That means you’ve got to vote for us, because we’re spending our money in your state to have the big convention,” he said.

The two states were also central in Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss. Last week, he was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in an investigation by the Michigan attorney general’s office into efforts he and his allies took to subvert Mr. Biden’s victory in the state. So far, 15 Republicans who acted as fake electors have been charged.

An earlier version of this article misquoted a statement from Donald J. Trump at a

campaign rally. He called on college leaders to “vanquish the radicals and take back our campuses for all of the normal students,” not “vanquish the locals.”

How we handle corrections

Michael Gold and Chris Cameron

Michael Gold reported from Waukesha, Wis. Chris Cameron reported from Washington.

Donald Trump, repeating his 2020 election lies, tells a Milwaukee newspaper that he will not commit to accepting the 2024 outcome.

Former President Donald J. Trump told The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday that he would not commit to accepting the results of the 2024 election, as he again repeated his lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

“If everything’s honest, I’ll gladly accept the results. I don’t change on that,” Mr. Trump said, according to The Journal Sentinel. “If it’s not, you have to fight for the right of the country.”

In an interview with Time magazine published on Tuesday, he also dismissed questions about political violence in November by suggesting that his victory was inevitable.

When pressed about what might happen should he lose, he said, “if we don’t win, you know, it depends. It always depends on the fairness of an election.”

Mr. Trump’s insistent and fraudulent claims that the 2020 election was unfair were at the heart of his efforts to overturn his loss to President Biden, and to the violent storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, by a mob of supporters who believed his claims. Mr. Trump now faces dozens of felony charges in connection with those events.

Mr. Trump’s vow to “fight for the right of the country” also echoes his speech on the Ellipse on Jan. 6, where he told his supporters that “if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore,” before urging his supporters to march to the Capitol.

As he campaigns in battleground states this year, Mr. Trump has repeatedly tried to sow doubt about the integrity of the fall election, while repeating many of the same lies that he used to assail the integrity of the 2020 election. Months before any voting has taken place, Mr. Trump has regularly made the baseless claim that Democrats are likely to cheat to win.

“Democrats rigged the presidential election in 2020, but we’re not going to allow them to rig the presidential election — the most important day of our lives — in 2024,” Mr. Trump said at a rally in Freeland, Mich.

The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Mr. Trump has for years promoted the lie that he won Wisconsin in 2020, and he did so again in the Journal Sentinel interview. Even after Jan. 6, 2021, and years after his exit from office, he has repeatedly pressured Assembly Speaker Robin Vos , the top Republican in the State Legislature, to help overturn Mr. Trump’s loss in the state and to impeach the state’s nonpartisan chief of elections.

More than 1,250 people have been charged with crimes in connection to the Jan. 6 attack — and hundreds of people have been convicted . Mr. Trump said in a recent interview that he would “absolutely” consider pardoning every person convicted on charges related to the storming of the Capitol. A bipartisan Senate report found that at least seven people died in connection with that attack.

The former president and his allies have also installed election deniers in influential positions in his campaign and in Republican Party institutions. In March, Trump allies newly installed to the leadership of the Republican National Committee appointed Christina Bobb , a former host at the far-right One America News Network, as senior counsel for election integrity. A self-described conspiracy theorist, she has relentlessly promoted false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.

Ms. Bobb was indicted in Arizona last week, along with all of the fake electors who acted on Mr. Trump’s behalf in that state and others, on charges related to what the authorities say were attempts by the defendants to overturn the 2020 election results in Arizona.

The Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee have made an aggressive approach to “election integrity” — a broad term often used by Republicans to cast doubt on elections that the party lost — central to their efforts heading toward November.

Last month, the committee announced a plan to train and dispatch more than 100,000 volunteers and lawyers to monitor the electoral process in each battleground state and to mount aggressive challenges.

On Wednesday, Mr. Trump said at the rally in Freeland that his campaign and national and state Republican parties would put together “a team of the most highly qualified lawyers and other professionals in the country to ensure that what happened in 2020 will never happen again.”

“I will secure our elections because you know what happened in 2020,” Mr. Trump said at a rally in Waukesha, Wis., on Wednesday.

Mr. Trump lost Wisconsin by more than 20,000 votes .

In Florida, Harris looks to make Trump the face of the state’s abortion ban.

Harris blasts trump over florida abortion ban, on the day that florida began to enforce its six-week abortion ban, vice president kamala harris delivered a searing attack on former president donald j. trump in jacksonville, fla., calling the measure “another trump abortion ban.”.

Today, this very day, at the stroke of midnight, another Trump abortion ban went into effect here in Florida. As of this morning, four million women in this state woke up with fewer reproductive freedoms than they had last night. This is the new reality under a Trump abortion ban. The contrast in this election could not be more clear. Basically under Donald Trump, it would be fair game for women to be monitored and punished by the government. Whereas Joe Biden and I have a different view. We believe the government should never come between a woman and her doctor. [crowd cheering]

On the day that Florida began to enforce its six-week abortion ban, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a searing attack on former President Donald J. Trump in Jacksonville, calling the measure “another Trump abortion ban” and saying he was forcing women to live a “horrific reality” without access to essential medical care.

“As much harm as he has already caused, a second Trump term would be even worse,” Ms. Harris said to about 200 supporters at a convention center in a historically African American neighborhood.

If Mr. Trump were to win in November, she argued, Americans would be compelled to endure “more bans, more suffering, less freedom.”

President Biden has made abortion — a rare issue on which he polls strongly against Mr. Trump — a pillar of his re-election campaign. He and Ms. Harris have campaigned aggressively in states that have imposed abortion restrictions, including Florida, where the president spoke last week , and Arizona, where legislators voted on Wednesday to overturn a near-total ban dating to 1864.

The president and vice president have used their appearances to illustrate the consequences of electing Republicans, and have placed the blame for the bans squarely on Mr. Trump, whose appointments to the Supreme Court helped overturn Roe v. Wade. “Donald Trump did this” has become a frequent refrain in Mr. Biden’s ads and speeches — a pointed and direct attack from a campaign that has struggled to sell its message to voters.

Ms. Harris’s appearance in Jacksonville also allowed her to capitalize on an interview Mr. Trump gave to Time magazine that was published on Tuesday. In the interview, Mr. Trump refused to commit to vetoing a federal abortion ban — which seemed to contradict recent statements from him — and said he would permit states to punish women who violated abortion bans.

“Just this week, in an interview, Trump said that states have the right to monitor pregnant women to enforce these bans, and to punish pregnant women for seeking out abortion care,” Ms. Harris warned.

In talking points distributed to surrogates on Tuesday, the Biden campaign urged them to focus attention on Mr. Trump’s abortion comments. And on Wednesday it released a video of Mr. Biden speaking directly to the camera.

“There seems to be no limit to how invasive Trump would let the state be,” the president said. “This should be a decision between a woman and her doctor, and the government should get out of people’s lives.”

On Wednesday, the six-week ban had already started to change lives. About 15 minutes away from Ms. Harris’s campaign event in Jacksonville, a reproductive health clinic called A Woman’s Choice received calls from women seeking abortions.

One woman said she was calling from Georgia, which also has a six-week ban. An official at the clinic informed her that a six-week ban was now in effect in Florida, too.

“Oh, Lord Jesus,” the woman responded, before opting to make an appointment in North Carolina, the nearest state where an abortion for someone at her stage of pregnancy would be available.

Many women do not know that they are pregnant at six weeks. And Florida’s ban means patients in the Southeast will have to travel as far away as North Carolina and Virginia to seek abortions, an unaffordable expense for many.

“The extremists who wrote this ban either don’t know how a woman’s body works, or they simply don’t care,” Ms. Harris said.

Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis, signed the six-week ban last year ahead of a failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination in which he tried to court social conservatives. Floridians will have the chance to overturn the law with a ballot referendum in November. That has revived faint hopes among Democrats that Florida could be in play in the presidential election, although the Biden campaign has yet to invest significant resources in the state and Republicans hold a major advantage in voter registration.

“This is going to be a game changer here in Florida. It’s going to be a motivator,” said Christina Diamond, the chief executive of Ruth’s List Florida, a group that works to elect Democratic women who support abortion rights.

“The reason we have a six-week ban,” Ms. Diamond added, “is because the State Legislature and our statewide offices are held by Republicans.”

To emphasize that point, the Democratic National Committee put up billboards around Florida with Mr. Trump’s face that told women how far they would have to drive to reach a state where they could receive an abortion. And it also hired a plane to fly over Mar-a-Lago, the former president’s home in Palm Beach, Fla., trailing a banner that read: “Trump’s Plan: Ban Abortion, Punish Women.”

(Mr. Trump is campaigning in Wisconsin and Michigan on Wednesday as the criminal trial against him in Manhattan is on break for the day.)

Republicans in Florida responded to Ms. Harris’s visit by talking about everything except abortion.

“In Florida, especially in Jacksonville, families are suffering under the train-wreck Biden-Harris Bidenomics,” Evan Power, the chairman of the Republican Party of Florida, said in a statement. “Groceries cost more. Gas prices are surging. And the cost of housing continues to push Americans’ wallets to the breaking point. Meanwhile, the open border lawlessness of the Biden Bloodbath has made all states — including Florida — a border state.”

Jacksonville has one of the largest Black populations in the United States, and the six-week ban will most likely have a disproportionate impact on African American women, who receive the procedure at higher rates than other groups.

The Biden campaign has been working to shore up its support among African Americans. Polling shows that Black voters are more likely to say abortion is their top issue. At the Jacksonville event, a marching band from Edward Waters University, a historically Black university, warmed up the crowd. Ms. Harris’s introductory speakers included Fentrice Driskell and Tracie Davis, two of the state’s most prominent Black politicians.

“We want the little girls of Florida to have the same freedom that their mothers and their grandmothers did,” said Ms. Driskell, a Tampa Democrat and the state House minority leader. “So let’s say it loud enough that they hear it from Jacksonville all the way to shake the walls of Mar-a-Lago: Get out of our health care. Get out of our exam rooms. We are taking our rights back.”

Trump says at rally that he wanted to go to the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Former President Donald J. Trump said on Wednesday that he asked his Secret Service detail to take him to the Capitol after his speech at the Ellipse on Jan. 6, 2021, acknowledging a key detail of his actions that were central to the findings of the House committee established to investigate the attack.

During a campaign rally in Waukesha, Wis., Mr. Trump brought up a sensational but disputed element of testimony given to the House Jan. 6 committee by a Trump White House aide: that Mr. Trump had lunged for the wheel and physically struggled with Secret Service agents when they refused to take him to join the large crowd of supporters who were marching toward the Capitol.

“I sat in the back,” Mr. Trump said, giving his version of events. “And you know what I did say? I said, ‘I’d like to go down there because I see a lot of people walking down.’ They said, ‘Sir, it’s better if you don’t.’ I said, ‘Well, I’d like to.’”

“It’s better if you don’t,” Mr. Trump recounted an agent saying. The former president said he replied, “All right, whatever you guys think is fine,” and added, “That was the whole tone of the conversation.”

President Biden’s campaign immediately highlighted Mr. Trump’s comments, amplifying that the former president had intended to participate in what would become an attack by his supporters on the Capitol in an effort to overturn Mr. Biden’s victory in the 2020 election.

It is not the first time that Mr. Trump has spoken of his effort to go to the Capitol on Jan. 6. He has said in several interviews that he regretted not marching on the Capitol with his supporters that day, and that his Secret Service detail prevented him from doing so.

“Secret Service said I couldn’t go,” Mr. Trump said in an interview with The Washington Post in April 2022 . “I would have gone there in a minute.”

Cassidy Hutchinson, the former White House aide, later testified to Mr. Trump’s conversation with Secret Service agents during televised hearings held by the House Jan. 6 committee. Ms. Hutchinson was not in the car with Mr. Trump, and said that her testimony to those events came secondhand or thirdhand from what other people had told her that day.

In an interview with the same committee, Mr. Trump’s driver, whose name was not disclosed, said: “The president was insistent on going to the Capitol. It was clear to me he wanted to go to the Capitol.”

Mr. Trump at the rally on Wednesday portrayed his requests to his Secret Service detail as casual ones.

In the interview with investigators for the House panel, the driver said that while he did not see Mr. Trump accost agents or reach for the steering wheel, “what stood out was the irritation in his voice, more than his physical presence.”

After Mr. Trump was driven back to the White House by his Secret Service detail, the former president sat and watched the ensuing violence play out on television, according to testimony by an array of former administration officials . After Mr. Trump’s speech at the Ellipse where he repeated his false claims that the election was stolen from him and urged attendees to march on the Capitol , a mob of his supporters overran police barricades to storm the building, temporarily disrupting the certification of Mr. Biden’s victory.

In a lengthy interview with Time magazine published on Tuesday, Mr. Trump said he would “absolutely” consider pardoning every person who had been convicted on, or pleaded guilty to, charges related to the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6. He also would not rule out the possibility of political violence after this year’s election.

“I think we’re going to win,” he said. “And if we don’t win, you know, it depends. It always depends on the fairness of an election.”

Trump to address Libertarian Party, hundreds of Black women endorse Alsobrooks in Maryland and more.

The Libertarian Party announced that Donald J. Trump will address the party’s national convention in late May in Washington, D.C., calling it the first time a former president will speak to a gathering of the party. — Shane Goldmacher

Over 650 Black women — ranging from House members to local activists — endorsed Angela Alsobrooks against Representative David Trone in Maryland’s Democratic Senate primary and criticized a recent ad from Trone. The ad featured Black officials questioning the qualifications of Alsobrooks, the executive of Prince George’s County, and suggesting she might need “training wheels”; the statement said that the ad “echoes tones of misogyny and racism.” Race has been a major undertone in the contest; Alsobrooks is Black and Trone is white. Some of Trone’s supporters hit back: State Senator Jill P. Carter, who is also Black, said she thought the ad was not an attack but simply “a campaign ad where some individuals are speaking about their specific experience.” — Maggie Astor

Almost four in 10 local election officials who were surveyed by the Brennan Center of Justice for a new report said they had experienced threats, harassment or abuse, another sign of the duress that the group has been under since the 2020 election. Sixty-two percent said they were worried about political leaders trying to interfere with how they or other election officials did their jobs. — Neil Vigdor

From Florida to Arizona, abortion politics are dominating the 2024 race.

In Florida, a ban on most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy took effect.

In Arizona, state lawmakers repealed a stringent abortion ban that dates to the Civil War era.

And across the country, the presidential campaign trail on Wednesday was brimming with reminders of just how central Democrats hope the abortion rights debate will be to voters’ decisions this fall.

Nearly two years after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade , Democrats are betting that the tangible effects of abortion restrictions that many Americans are already experiencing — and the threats of more to come — will help their party power through an ominous and volatile political environment, as Republicans struggle to address an issue that has become a significant, sustained liability for them.

“Donald Trump is to blame for the harm state abortion bans are doing to women every day in our country,” Vice President Kamala Harris wrote on social media on Wednesday morning, ahead of delivering remarks n Jacksonville, Fla., about the state’s “extreme” new ban.

Mr. Trump, she said there, would bring “more bans, more suffering, less freedom,” if he won re-election.

As they did in the midterm elections in 2022, Democrats are borrowing from language long favored by Republicans — about freedom and limiting the reach of government — to make their case.

They believe that Mr. Trump, whose Supreme Court nominees helped overturn Roe, recently bolstered their argument further.

In a Time magazine interview released on Tuesday, Mr. Trump refused to commit to vetoing a national abortion ban and said he would allow states to monitor women’s pregnancies and prosecute those who violated abortion restrictions.

“There seems to be no limit to how invasive Trump would let the state be,” President Biden said in a video released on Wednesday morning. “This should be a decision between a woman and her doctor, and the government should get out of people’s lives.”

The focus on abortion rights propelled Democrats in the midterm elections, when candidates harnessed voter anger over abortion restrictions to overcome challenging national headwinds in key contests.

And it has remained a potent force in subsequent elections.

State Representative Mike Caruso of Florida, a Republican who opposed the six-week ban, noted that a number of states including Florida are expected to have abortion rights-related measures on the ballot this fall.

“It’s going to hurt Republicans,” he said. For Democrats who were unenthusiastic about Mr. Biden, he said, “now they’ve got reason they can show up. I think it’s going to have a major impact on the elections in November.”

But it is not yet clear how galvanizing the issue will be across the country in a presidential election shaped by economic concerns at home and crises abroad, with two well-known and unpopular men — one of whom, Mr. Trump, faces multiple criminal cases — at the top of their party’s tickets.

“President Trump has long been consistent in supporting the rights of states to make decisions on abortion,” Karoline Leavitt, a spokeswoman for Mr. Trump, said in a statement. “Women want a president who will secure our nation’s borders, remove violent criminals from our neighborhoods and build an economy that helps hardworking families thrive.”

And even as Democrats sought to keep the issue at the forefront of voters’ minds on Wednesday, they were competing with unrest at college campuses across the country, including in critical battleground states, as students protested the war in Gaza, with many objecting to Mr. Biden’s support for Israel.

Such scenes of turmoil, some party strategists have warned, can be damaging for the party that controls the White House.

A new progressive PAC is targeting 8 key House races in California.

Democrats nearly pulled off the impossible in the 2022 midterms.

In the final weeks of the campaign, with an unpopular president in his first term, polls forecast a red wave that would sweep the country and flip control of the House and the Senate — prompting alarm from Democrats and predictions from Republicans of a decisive victory.

But that wave never materialized, a mirage of bad polling and inflated expectations . Democrats came close to maintaining a national trifecta, but Republicans eked out a thin majority in the House — prevailing in a handful of seats in New York and California, each by just a few thousand votes .

Now, a new coalition of progressive groups in California has formed a super PAC aiming to bolster Democratic candidates in a state that the party sees as crucial to winning control of the House this fall.

The super PAC, Battleground California, says it aims to spend $15 million this year on eight competitive House races, seven with Republican incumbents — in Northern California, Orange County, the Inland Empire east of Los Angeles, the Central Valley and Los Angeles — as well as the seat left open by Representative Katie Porter, a Democrat who is not running for re-election after a failed Senate campaign.

It is an ambitious effort, one that seeks to establish a durable progressive machine in California — advised and supported by local activists and community organizations — to lift swing district Democratic candidates through an extensive field operation, including marathon door-knocking campaigns aimed at driving turnout among minority groups.

“Trusted messengers from the community are a very critical element,” said Steve Phillips, a co-founder of the California Donor Table, the group leading the Battleground California PAC, adding that those residents are not only more trusted by voters but are better able to provide feedback on what messages work and what messages don’t.

Pablo Rodriguez, the executive director of Communities for a New California, a group focused on civil rights, is among the activists working with the PAC. He said that focusing on local issues, and less on the “national noise” generated by President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump, would be the key to victory.

“The path towards victory,” Mr. Rodriguez said, “is not making big TV or radio buys or even digital ad buys, right? We need to actually have face-to-face conversations with voters.”

Battleground California has set a challenging goal. Only two of the seven Republicans that the PAC will spend against — Representatives David Valadao and John Duarte, who represent predominantly Latino districts in the Central Valley region — won their 2022 races by what would be considered close margins. They will both face rematches with their 2022 opponents: Rudy Salas and Adam Gray, two Democratic former state assemblymen.

The PAC’s target spending figure of $15 million, while substantial, will not go far in a state where House races can get expensive. In the Central Valley, the race for Mr. Valadao’s seat in 2022 fielded more than $25 million in outside spending . Ms. Porter also spent more than $28 million on her re-election campaign . Michael Gomez Daly, political strategist at California Donor Table, said the coalition had raised about $1.3 million to date, aiming for $5 million by July.

Mr. Phillips and Mr. Daly said their targets were within reach for Democrats with enough investment of resources.

“All the districts should be flippable,” Mr. Daly said. He declined to say how many victories would be considered a success, adding that “failure is not really an option this cycle.”

Both Mr. Gray and Mr. Salas attributed their losses in 2022 to depressed turnout, and in interviews they both highlighted their efforts to start get-out-the-vote efforts early. They also had high expectations for a boost in presidential-year turnout.

Mr. Valadao and Mr. Duarte declined interview requests, but Republican pollsters, strategists and consultants in California have said that demographic changes and new efforts to reach voters of color have shifted the balance of power in their favor. They point to Mr. Valadao’s close victory in 2020, as well as wins by minority candidates like Representatives Young Kim and Michelle Steel in that same year. Others say that the presidential race is just as likely to inflate turnout among Republicans.

“It’ll be close, but Valadao will win,” said Cathy Abernathy, a Republican campaign consultant in Kern County. “And he’ll win most likely because Trump’s on the ballot.”

The Republican voter base is also growing in the Central Valley districts represented by Mr. Valadao and Mr. Duarte, according to registration records by the California secretary of state’s office, a net gain of several thousand voters in both districts from September 2022 to February this year — exceeding the narrow margin of victory in those seats in the 2022 races.

“It’s a little bit of contrast to, I think, the typical narrative that people of color are more progressive-minded,” said Rachel Hernandez, a member of the City Council in Riverbank who is running for mayor. Instead, she added, “what we’re seeing in the Central Valley is that the Latino community is electing more conservative candidates.”

Ms. Hernandez added that, for now, that is not an irreversible trend, but a warning sign for Democrats to pay attention to the nuances of the Latino electorate. She encouraged many of the same tactics that Battleground California says it plans to use: molding a message for the needs of a specific community, and working with staff members and volunteers who represent the community.

“My volunteers, for example, up until just this weekend actually, were all young women,” Ms. Hernandez said. “Young Latina women, college-aged, who approached me because they were saying ‘Wow, this is like our campaign.’”

Trump is heading to two Midwest battlegrounds, his first major campaign events since his criminal trial began.

Former President Donald J. Trump will return to the campaign trail today, with stops in Wisconsin and Michigan, his first major events in battleground states since the beginning of his felony criminal trial three weeks ago.

Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver remarks “about the fight for reproductive freedoms” in Jacksonville, Fla., as a six-week abortion ban begins in that state. Her visit is part of a national tour aimed at energizing Black voters in battleground states. In Washington, President Biden will attend a campaign reception at the Mayflower Hotel.

Mr. Trump will first deliver remarks in Waukesha, Wis., before holding a rally later in the evening in Freeland, Mich. Thousands of voters in the county, Saginaw, backed Nikki Haley in the Republican primary, though Mr. Trump has so far not directly appealed to her voters for support.

With friendly audiences, Mr. Trump is likely to use his bully pulpit during his Midwest trek to attack the justice system. He has repeatedly asserted without evidence that his legal troubles are a conspiracy to interfere in the election, and he has argued that he should be immune from criminal charges for actions he took as president — while simultaneously promising to wield the Justice Department to go after President Biden and his family .

But Mr. Trump became familiar with the limits of those attacks on Tuesday, when the judge in his criminal trial held him in contempt for violating a gag order for attacking witnesses and jurors. He was fined $9,000 and ordered to take down offending posts on his social media site, Truth Social. Mr. Trump complied and took the posts down before a midafternoon deadline.

The former president is also expected to speak about escalating clashes between the police and pro-Palestinian demonstrators on college campuses. Mr. Trump has painted the mostly peaceful protests as “riots,” filled with “tremendous hate.” He has also repeatedly distorted the violent white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017 in comparing the two events, describing it on Tuesday morning as “a big hoax” when compared with the campus protests.

Federal judges block Louisiana’s newly drawn congressional map.

A newly drawn congressional map in Louisiana was struck down on Tuesday by a panel of federal judges who found that the new boundaries, which form a second majority Black district in the state, amounted to an “impermissible racial gerrymander” that violated the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution.

The 2-to-1 ruling now leaves uncertain which boundaries will be used in the November elections, which are just six months away and could play a critical role in determining the balance of power in the House of Representatives.

Critics warned that the decision could have broader implications on voting rights. Eric H. Holder Jr., the former U.S. attorney general and current chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, said the “ideological nature of the decision could not be more clear.”

Louisiana’s attorney general, Liz Murrill, a Republican, indicated on Tuesday that the case could advance to the U.S. Supreme Court. “I’ve said all along the Supreme Court needs to clear this up,” she wrote on social media .

The judges have scheduled a hearing on May 6 to discuss next steps. The Louisiana secretary of state has ordered that the congressional map be finalized by May 15.

Read the Federal Judges’ Ruling

A newly drawn congressional map in Louisiana was struck down by a panel of federal judges who found that the new boundaries, which form a second majority Black district in the state, amounted to an “impermissible racial gerrymander” that violated the U.S. Constitution.

The new districts had been outlined in January during a special session of the State Legislature. Lawmakers had been ordered to sketch out the new boundaries after a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit found that the previous map had very likely violated the Voting Rights Act by diluting the voting power of Black residents.

But the new maps went before another panel of federal judges after a group of residents scattered across the new congressional district who describe themselves as “non-African American” voters challenged the maps. They argued that lawmakers had moved to “segregate voters based entirely on their races,” and to achieve that they stitched together “communities in far-flung regions of Louisiana.”

The new majority Black district cuts across a long, narrow swath that reaches from Baton Rouge, the capital city in the toe of Louisiana’s boot, to Shreveport, in the northwest corner of the state. About 54 percent of the district’s population is Black.

In the ruling on Tuesday, Judges David C. Joseph and Robert R. Summerhays, both of the Western District of Louisiana, acknowledged that factors other than race, like protecting certain incumbents, had figured into the process. Even so, they said, it was evident that creating a second district with a majority of Black voters was lawmakers’ overarching objective.

“The predominate role of race in the state’s decisions,” the judges wrote, “is reflected in the statements of legislative decision makers, the division of cities and parishes along racial lines, the unusual shape of the district and the evidence that the contours of the district were drawn to absorb sufficient numbers of Black-majority neighborhoods to achieve the goal of a functioning majority Black district.”

The judges noted that the ruling did not decide “whether it is feasible to create a second majority Black district in Louisiana that would comply” with the Equal Protection Clause. But they added that the Voting Rights Act “never requires race to predominate in drawing congressional districts at the sacrifice of traditional districting principles.”

In a dissenting opinion, Judge Carl E. Stewart of the Fifth Circuit argued that the challengers had failed to prove that their constitutional rights were violated.

“The totality of the record,” he wrote, “demonstrates that the Louisiana Legislature weighed various political concerns — including protecting of particular incumbents — alongside race, with no factor predominating over the other.”

The ruling is the latest wrinkle in the lengthy legal battle over the shape of Louisiana’s congressional districts and comes as other Southern states have also been forced by courts to redraw district lines amid accusations of racial discrimination.

Louisiana was obligated to redraw congressional districts after the 2020 census to take into account population changes. The census had found that the Black population in the state had increased by 3.8 percent over the past decade, meaning that roughly a third of the overall population was Black. But in the map drawn by the Republican-controlled Legislature, only one of the six congressional districts had a majority Black population.

In June 2022, a federal judge found that the map had been racially gerrymandered and illegally weakened the electoral power of Black voters. The judge ordered lawmakers to create another district that would give Black voters the chance to elect a candidate of their choice. But the disputed map was still used in the 2022 election.

Other Southern states had also been ordered to redraw maps after a surprise U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year in which the justices threw out Alabama’s congressional boundaries, finding that they did not adequately account for the state’s Black population. The ruling reaffirmed the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which had been diminished over the years by the court’s conservative majority.

Critics of Tuesday’s ruling argued that the repercussions in Louisiana could extend beyond a single election, or even partisan divisions. Ashley Shelton, who leads the Power Coalition for Equity and Justice, which was part of the challenge to the original 2020 map, said she and others remained undeterred.

“We will continue to fight for a map that reflects our communities, that honors the promise of the Voting Rights Act,” Ms. Shelton said, “and that respects the voices of thousands of Louisianians who have engaged throughout the redistricting process. We have been clear since day one in our call for a fair and representative map.”

Democrats win a special House election in New York, narrowing the Republican majority.

Timothy M. Kennedy, a Democratic New York State senator, easily won a special House election on Tuesday to replace a retiring congressman in western New York, according to The Associated Press .

The victory was hardly a surprise. Democrats have controlled the Buffalo-area district for decades. And Mr. Kennedy outspent his Republican opponent, Gary Dickson, by an eye-popping 47 to 1 .

But his victory will have an immediate impact on the House at a time when Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana is laboring to hold onto a narrow Republican majority and fend off a rebellion on his right flank.

Once Mr. Kennedy is seated, Mr. Johnson’s margin will effectively shrink to just a single, tenuous vote on partisan issues. A handful of special elections in Wisconsin, Ohio, Colorado and California are expected to offer Republicans reinforcements, but not until this summer.

In the meantime, Mr. Kennedy, 47, is expected to provide a reliably liberal vote. He campaigned on a familiar Democratic platform, promising to fight for federal infrastructure dollars for a region that has struggled economically, for federal abortion rights and against former President Donald J. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee to face President Biden this fall.

Mr. Dickson, a former F.B.I. agent and local town supervisor, ran a relatively moderate campaign for a Republican in the Trump era. He had endorsed the former president, but called the Jan. 6 Capitol riot “a travesty.” He supported Ukraine’s war against Russia and federal investment in transportation projects, spending priorities that more conservative Republicans forcefully oppose.

But it was not enough to win over a district that counts more than twice as many Democrats as Republicans. With 62 percent of the votes counted, Mr. Kennedy was beating Mr. Dickson by 34 percentage points, 67 to 33.

The seat was vacated in February by the retirement of Brian Higgins , a moderate Democrat who had represented the Buffalo area for 19 years.

Mr. Higgins, who left the job early to lead Shea’s Performing Arts Center in Buffalo, was part of a wave of seasoned lawmakers from both parties heading toward the exits this year. Like many others, Mr. Higgins, 64, cited an increasingly toxic and unproductive environment on Capitol Hill.

Mr. Kennedy is a former occupational therapist who has served in the New York State Senate since 2011. In Albany, he led an important legislative committee on transportation and supported a tough package of gun safety measures after a racist shooter killed 10 people at a Buffalo supermarket in 2022. He also earned a reputation as a prolific fund-raiser.

He was selected directly by party leaders as the Democratic nominee to serve the remainder of Mr. Higgins’s term. Mr. Kennedy will likely remain in campaign mode this year, with a Democratic primary in June and November’s general election still ahead.

The district sweeps north from Buffalo, including the city, many of its suburbs and Niagara Falls.
