Vol 2 - NEWS BEHIND NEWS BEHIND NEWS
Tea is boiling, Apple is cooking & Chromakopia is coming.
👀 Feels like one of the bigger release days since spring…
🎶 New albums and EPs from Bon Iver, Yeat, Jean Dawson, Riley Green, LP Giobbi, The Blessed Madonna, Phantogram, ian, Joy Oladokun, Kylie Minogue, Maverick Sabre, Bishop Briggs…
♪ Notable singles from Morgan Wallen, Mk.gee, Gunna, Polo & Pan, Ari Lennox, FKA twigs, Conan Gray, JADE, Bailey Zimmerman, Jeremih, A$AP Ferg…
Each week, we go through Spotify's New Music Friday playlists to highlight releases you should know about…
#1 - 'APT.' from ROSÉ and Bruno Mars. Co-written by Amy Allen of 'Espresso' and 'Please Please Please' writing fame. It's a 3-peat for members of BLACKPINK taking the #1 spot. Surprisingly, it did not crack top ten on NMF UK.
#3 - Gracie Abrams returns with the deluxe version of The Secret of Us - she is also the only artist who consistently placed top 5 across NMF Global, UK, Japan, Korea, AU/NZ, Sweden.
#5 - Mk.gee does his best The Police impression with 'ROCKMAN'.
#13 - Myke Towers' 'DEGENERE (feat. benny blanco)' samples Suzanne Vega's 'Tom's Diner'.
#16 - Sofia Valdés gets big support from Spotify with 'Already Yours' off her self-titled album that drops today.
#18 - It's that time of year — Conan Gray captures SEO with track titled 'Holidays.'
#42 - Bishop Briggs is back with her first album since 2019 with featured track 'Serotonin.'
#44 - Kelsea Ballerini's 'First Rodeo' is co-written by Little Big Town's Karen Fairchild, among others.
#76 - Australia's Dean Lewis releases new single 'Empire.'
#79 - Ice Cube returns with his first single in 3 years with 'It's My Ego', kicking off his Man Down album release cycle.
⭐ #99 - Hildegard, Helena Deland & Ouri team up for 'Pour Your Heart Out' on new collab album Jour 1596.
❌ - nowhere to be seen on NMF Global is Charli xcx & Kesha's collab for 'Spring breakers' - even Spotify editors are ready for Chromakopia fall.
⭐ = our pick of the week. Usually an under the radar artist to keep an eye on.
Halsey, Amyl and The Sniffers, Soccer Mommy, Kelsea Ballerini, Pixies, Tears For Fears, Cochise, Rejjie Snow all have new projects expected to come out next week.
070 Shake, Ethel Cain, Panda Bear, Qrion announced new albums & Tyler, The Creator teased Chromakopia.
