Audrey Hobert is the latest rising queen of suburban girl pop. Last month, she released her wildly catchy single “Sue Me,” which seemed to come out of nowhere. Turns out she’s already penned songs alongside her close childhood friend Gracie Abrams. Today, she’s shared another brilliantly written single “Bowling Alley,” a playful acoustic gem that wrestles with clout vampires and that nagging feeling no one wants you at the party.

Today, Norwegian artist and producer Marit Othilie Thorvik returns with her newest single as Jouska. “Flower Moon” is the first new music since her 2023 sophomore album Suddenly My Mind Is Blank.

With albums like Charmer’s Downpour and First Day Back’s Forward, the emo scene is having a good year. Now it’s getting better with the announcement of Kerosene Heights’ new record Blame It On The Weather.

PinkPantheress shared Fancy That in May, and we named it one of the best albums of the year. Now the pop sensation is already back to officially put out an unreleased fan-favorite tune called “Close To You.”

Central Cee kicked off 2025 with Can’t Rush Greatness, our Album Of The Week. Now the UK drill rapper is teaming up with Sexyy Red for the unlikely collaboration “GUILT TRIPPIN.”

Fat Joe is facing a lawsuit from his former hypeman Terrance “T.A.” Dixon, accusing him of “coercive labor exploitation, financial fraud, sexual manipulation, violent intimidation, and psychological coercion.” Dixon also claims that as the rapper (real name Joseph Antonio Cartagena) rose to fame he suppressed, silenced, and erased Dixon’s contributions to his success. He’s seeking $20 million in damages.

One of the best-loved songs on last year’s Cowboy Carter, the album that finally won Beyoncé her long-awaited Grammy for Album Of The Year, was the Miley Cyrus duet “II Most Wanted.” (Indie fans, take note: Adam Granduciel, who later contributed to Cyrus’ Something Beautiful, plays guitar on that track.) Now, more than a year after the album’s release, Beyoncé and Miley have performed the song together in concert.

Billie Marten is continuing her streak of gorgeous Dog Eared singles. The British singer-songwriter has shared “Crown,” “Feeling,” “Leap Year,” and “Swing,” and now she’s back with the meditative, slinky “Clover.”

Last month Wombo announced their new album Danger In Fives and unveiled the title track. Today the Louisville indie rock crew is back with the off-kilter, whimsical gem “Neon Bog.”
