Jennifer Lopez dropped the full video for her new song, "On My Way," which is featured in her upcoming movie, "Marry Me." Lopez, 52, performs her romantic ballad in the three-and-a-half-minute clip directed by Santiago Salviche, which sees her rock two glamorous looks on a dramatic set. She begins the video standing on a dark stage, but as the background slowly illuminates, Lopez walks forward to sit on a red chair as a projection of an orchestra appears behind her. As the opening notes play, clips from "Marry Me" flash footage of herself and costar Owen Wilson, replacing the orchestra. When the track picks up a tempo, Lopez starts dancing to the beat, removing the cropped jacket to reveal a black tank while the lights of the bridge sparkle behind her. She ends the video right where she began, back on the empty stage, and looks directly into the camera as the music fades away. The pop star released "On My Way" in November, not long after performing her new song for the first time at Global Citizen Live in September. Lopez hits another high note on the silver screen in "Marry Me," the movie she recorded "On My Way" for. The actress stars as singer Kat Valdez, who spontaneously marries a math teacher (Wilson) after learning her fiancé cheated on her.

Tom Jones today releases the extended version of his album "Surrounded By Time" and includes two newly recorded tracks, live-in-concert tracks and a conversation with Peter Paphides. On its release earlier this year, "Surrounded By Time" achieved the Number One position on the album charts, firmly cementing the working relationship that both he and producer Ethan Johns have cultivated since 2010’s "Praise & Blame." At the age of 81 Tom is the oldest male solo artist to achieve this ranking (with new material) whilst at the same time receiving some of his best reviews to date, with the critics running out of superlatives. In terms of a sixty year career, this is an incredible achievement. "Surrounded by Time" marks out new territory with a diverse selection of tracks that have impacted Tom over what has been an extraordinary career. The extended version of Surrounded By Time is available in an attractive Deluxe package and standard cd. CD1 is the original album audio, and CD2 includes two new tracks, "Not Dark Yet" and the fittingly titled "One Hell Of A Life." Additionally, four live tracks are recorded at this summer’s album showcase at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire, book-ended with a fascinating conversation with journalist and broadcaster Peter Paphides, exploring the album’s birth and creation and life through the lockdown.

Yvonne Catterfeld, who made her breakthrough as a GZSZ actress in the noughties, also successfully took on music from day one. A bit sappy, a bit predictable, but she was never one of the evil protagonists of the German pop industry. With the new album "Change," Yvonne Catterfeld has presented 13 English-language songs, on the one hand, and in part very modern, but on the other hand also very much related to musical traditions. Catterfeld justified switching to English by saying that German always seems so cerebral and rational to her. In the best moments of “Change,“ She shook off German pop, lived up to her named inspirations and made some of the best songs of her career. Anyone who has followed Yvonne Catterfeld's artistic work over the years knows that she can sing well and maybe also that she always struggled a little with her music. Well, “Change” is supposed to change what is already assigned or announced by the album's title. Yvonne Catterfeld can, of course, still sing well, maybe now, even better over the years, and documents this in an impressive way with this album, which is very consistent in itself. Significantly, the prominent notes hardly come out of the phrase juice. Ironically, the record dilutes itself more and more into nice radio toothless the closer it gets to the big, abstract themes. If she sings out of her mind, on the other hand, it becomes more and more of a liberation. If Catterfeld stays in this zone, she will undoubtedly become the queen at every exchange concert in the next few years.

Norah Jones has been a steady voice of warmth and reassurance for nearly 20 years since her cozy 2002 debut album Come Away With Me became a familiar musical companion for millions worldwide. The nine-time Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, and pianist has released a deluxe edition of her first-ever holiday album, "I Dream Of Christmas." The deluxe edition has an additional three new tracks which include, "I Dream Of Christmas," "Last Month Of The Year," and a cover of a holiday favourite, "I'll Be Home For Christmas." The delightful and comforting collection of timeless seasonal favourites and affecting new originals that explore the complicated emotions of our times and our hopes that this holiday season will be full of joy and togetherness. “I’ve always loved Christmas music but never had the inclination to make a holiday album until now,” Norah says. “Last year, I found myself listening to 'James Brown’s Funky Christmas and Elvis’s Christmas Album' on Sundays during lockdown for a sense of comfort. In January 2021, I started thinking about making a Christmas album of my own. It gave me something fun to work on and look forward to.” Among the album’s many pleasures is Norah’s playful reinvention of The Chipmunk’s “Christmas Don’t Be Late” by David Seville (aka Ross Bagdasarian), which is given a languid beat and swaggering horns. Other highlights include sublime versions of “White Christmas,” “Blue Christmas,” “Winter Wonderland,” and “Christmas Time Is Here.”

Legendary R&B singer Mary J. Blige has released not one but two new singles: “Good Morning Gorgeous” and “Amazing” featuring DJ Khaled. Blige will finally turn her full attention to a new album in early 2022. Her 14th studio LP and first since 2017’s "Strength of A Woman" is slated to arrive in January ahead of her anticipated co-headlining appearance during the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show in Inglewood, California. "Strength Of A Woman" included Blige’s hit single “Thick of It,” co-written by Jazmine Sullivan. The track strongly impacted radio, topping the R&B radio chart in just four weeks. Blige told Hall, “I’m not cocky. I’m not arrogant. But I earned the right to say some things. I earned the right to say, ‘I feel amazing.'” She added, “The reason why I said I feel amazing is not that every day is a great day, and I always wake up feeling — like this. It’s because when I wake up with no hair and makeup, I’m accepting that chick who goes to the bathroom. I like her. I hang out with myself a lot. I’m my own best friend…that’s why it’s cool.” Last month, it was revealed that Blige, who was previously signed to Republic, has formed a new partnership with 300 Entertainment, the current homes to acts like Young Thug, Migos, and Megan Thee Stallion. Also, in recent months, Blige has celebrated album milestones for No More Drama and My Life II: The Journey Continues (Act 1).

After performing new bops "Coconuts" and "Hit It From The Back" at the EMAs earlier this month, Kim Petras has officially released the song "Coconuts" as she shared the news by flashing her titular coconuts on TikTok earlier this week. Speaking about her upcoming debut, “I love writing fucked up, dirty stuff, so there’s a lot of slut on it. The Britney thing reminded me of how, if a girl writes songs about sex, it’s not art, and it’s not important, and it’s not winning GRAMMYs. But the shit that ‘Gimme More’ meant to me when I was a teenager and how it made me feel? I was dancing in my room; I put on my clip-in extensions and wore them around all day. It brought me so much joy, and no one can tell me that’s not important music, you know?” “This time, I’m not insecure in myself,” she continued. “I’m not like, ‘Am I pretty enough to make a slutty song like that?’, I don’t think that anymore, and that’s very freeing. I loved crazy music growing up, and I’m going to make crazy music and not be afraid of it. For me, it’s a confident record because I was like, I’m just going to do whatever the f*ck I want.” German pop star Kim Petras has a massive following amongst LGBTQ+ people and big pop music fanatics. Petras, trans, first came to recognition in 2008 when she became the youngest person ever to undergo gender reassignment surgery.
