It’s always a tricky situation when a band decides to debut new material in a live setting. They run the risk of performing it badly and then having interest lost when the studio version comes along, or the performance is so good that there’s just no possible way of the album cut measuring up to it. For OneRepublic, debuting new material live is something that they’re used to, and they know when to perform which song when – with a new album just weeks away, that’s probably the reason behind their recent performance of the new track, “Let’s Hurt Tonight.”
A new JoJo album is only a few weeks away, and while it’s still weird to even think that it’s actually happening, we’re too busy listening to the songs to really care. Following up the release of the singles “F– Apologies” and “Mad Love,” the next track to debut from Mad Love is the fiery Remy Ma collaboration, “FAB.”
Panic! At The Disco are getting weird, but then again, what else is new? The band sent fans into a whirlwind of confusion and excitement when they began to tease something cryptic over social media, and nobody really has any idea what they’re up to.
It only took a few seconds into Drake’s song, “Too Good,” to realize that it would be a hit. The song off the rapper’s latest album, Views, has an undeniable hook that’s made for mass consumption, and the dancehall vibes throughout it is the reason why it’s a perfect club anthem. However, when Zara Larsson took the song’s matters into her own hands, she transformed the upbeat track into something a little more funky, and it’s practically mesmerizing.
Fans of The Weeknd have been waiting for some information – any information at all – to hold them over ever since the pop crooner began his cryptic social media campaign on Twitter and Instagram. But now, it seems like their wishes have finally come true. The Weeknd decked out his social media recently to promote his new album, announcing the title and showing off fresh cover art for the record, which will be called Starboy.
After a few weeks of your regularly scheduled Lady Gaga teasing, the wait is finally over for the music video for her new single, “Perfect Illusion.” The song is the first track that we’re getting to hear off her new album, Joanne, which is scheduled for release on October 21st.
At one point, Austin Mahone was touted as the next big thing – even having what it took to dethrone Justin Bieber as the new Prince of Pop. But, label issues stunted the singer’s growth incredibly, and even after all these years, Mahone has yet to release a full-length album. That isn’t stopping him from releasing music though, as we’ve seen numerous singles, a few EPs, and even a mixtape aptly titled, This Is Not The Album. Today, we get a lyric video for one of his recent songs, “Way Up,” and it shows exactly why he still has that star potential in him.
Hot on the heels of releasing a new EP, Brand New Moves, in August, Hey Violet is back at it again with even newer music, this time in the form of the single, “Guys My Age.” Though co-written by One Direction collaborator Julian Bunetta, it’s hardly a recreation of something 1D would do, but instead follows, stylistically, in the same path as their EP.
The summer may be over, but the songs from the summer are still going strong. Fifth Harmony has been ruling the charts with singles like “Work From Home” and “All In My Head (Flex),” but their new single, “That’s My Girl,” has the potential to do better than them both. With the song’s brand new music video, the girls are saving the world in a post-apocalyptic setting, and nothing really suits their larger-than-life personalities better than that.
Green Day’s upcoming fall tour has turned into some of the most anticipated rock shows for the rest of the year, but unfortunately, it looks it isn't going to be starting exactly when it's supposed to. The band sent out an update to announce the postponement and cancellation of a couple of opening dates on the tour, due to illnesses within the band and the crew.
