What’s Your Favorite New Music Release of the Week? Vote!
Summer is continuing to heat up when it comes to new music releases.
Charli XCX continued Brat summer with a remix of “Guess” featuring Billie Eilish. Fans first began speculating that Eilish would be the surprise guest on the new track when Charli teased a new collaborative version of the song, with her special guest’s face cropped out of the photo. Spotting a set of rings Eilish has been wearing lately, fans immediately placed their bets that the “360” singer tapped Eilish for the guest spot.
More collaborations of the week included A$AP Rocky teaming up with Jessica Pratt for “HIGHJACK” and Jessie Murph calling on Teddy Swims for “Dirty.”
Meanwhile, Jack White’s No Name album arrived on streaming services nearly a month after he secretly released it and had employees at Third Man Records’ retail shops secretly slipping it into customers’ bags.
Khalid dropped his long-awaited third studio album, Sincere. “When I debuted, I was 17 years old. I had no true sense of self,” he told Billboard. “I was writing not even from my experiences. I feel like this album is exactly that. I took it back to basics and I approached it as if I was debuting as an artist all over again. It’s like I’m coming right back to the start of my journey but this time with more insight and knowledge.”
