Unmistakeable talent Lola Young releases her brand new single "Bad Tattoo." via Island Records. The 20-year-old artist composed and in command describes the complexities of recovering from a toxic relationship, certifying herself as a storyteller with range, emotion and prowess beyond her years. “Bad Tattoo” was produced by manuka, with additional production by Rob Milton. Fiercely independent and exceptionally talented, 20-year-old Lola Young has an undeniable creative focus. Her work to date – the powerful singles "Ruin My Make Up" and "Woman." her debut collection of tracks ‘Intro’ and second release, the "Renaissance" EP, all received critical acclaim. Talking about the track, Lola explains, “Bad tattoo is a song I wrote about falling in love and not knowing whether it’s going to last; young love can be really hard sometimes. However, I’ve recently realized the beauty in the temporary nature of love, the fact that it can come and go, it can leave you feeling the worst you could ever feel, yet it can be the most beautiful thing in the world. Bad tattoo talks about the permanence of relationships, not necessarily lasting but the lasting effect it has on a person, the understanding and learning you must go through when experiencing life with some and finally coming to peace with the fact that it can leave you scarred like a really bad fucking tattoo.”

Justin Bieber's highly anticipated fifth studio album was released through Def Jam Recordings and RBMG on February 14, 2020. The album was released on Valentine's Day, which was fitting since the album contains odes to Hailey Baldwin, whom he married in 2018. "Changes," Bieber explained, is “super dedicated to his wife.” His marriage permeates the album, with most of the songs clearly written about their relationship. His last album, the earworm stuffed, electro-R&B-tinged "Purpose," came out in 2015, and since he wrapped the world tour in support of it in 2017, he took somewhat of a step back. He did occasionally release the world-beating ‘Despacito’ and his collaboration with BloodPop ‘Friends’ and a handful of live appearances. In an age when most pop albums are created by committee, "Changes" is one of the most cohesive The spare, acoustic opening track "All Around Me" floats into the gently percussive "Habitual," which floats into the springtime step of "Come Around Me," like an extended love suite. Bieber is more concerned with setting a mood than pumping out hooks, and then "Intentions," all jaunty, roof-down swinging, comes along and offers the closest thing to a conventional pop melody on the album. "Yummy," the lead single has a maddeningly and irresistibly repetitive hook that praises the pleasures of making love stoned, comes next, cementing Bieber's new calling: a Canadian D'Angelo for white-girl Beliebers who are now old enough to understand that grown-up love doesn't actually feel anything like "Baby," Bieber's early, equally repetitious hit. This is not just a formidable soul man's coming of age. It's also the emergence of a brand new Bieber, a happily married 25-year-old with everything to lose. It's no surprise that he chose to release it on the romantic holiday that he did. Bieber is truly, madly, deeply in it here, but love is more than mutual admiration. Like life, it's messy and complicated, and so is the path that leads us there. In the five years since his last album, Bieber has taken many twists and turns. There have been various romantic entanglements, bad-boy tantrums and a near-meltdown that had Bieber cancelling dates on his "Purpose" tour and quitting social media. It took a circle of writers and producers to construct the songs on "Changes," but the lyrics sound 100 percent Bieber. By the end of its 51 minutes (a surprisingly short running time for 17 tracks), Bieber has drilled home the point: He's hopelessly in love. Good for him and his bride. "Changes" is an album for lovers, for Valentine's Days, and all the candlelit evenings between them. Overall, while "Changes" is not Bieber’s worst work, it is not his best. However, several cuts from this project have definitely made playlists and rotations throughout the world. Don’t get it twisted, though; "Changes" does not take away from Bieber’s discography or legacy. It is a pretty good album that paints a sweet picture of being young and happy in love. Several of the songs possess a quality much like wine: they tend to get better over time as you play them over and over. With his first album in nearly 5 years, "Changes" reminds both long-time and new fans that JB can bring that soulful R&B flavour.

It also features drums by Autolux’s Carla Azar and bass by Cage The Elephant’s Daniel Tichenor.

DVBBS‘ previous singles include “I Don’t” with Johnny Orlando on Universal Music, “Too Much” with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike on Smash The House as well as their 2020’s summer anthem “Tinted Eyes,” featuring blackbear and 24kGoldn, which is about to surpass 50 million streams on Spotify.

Florence Welch said in a press release, “Some of the first songs I ever learned how to sing were Disney songs. And the villains often got the best numbers. So to help create and perform a song for Cruella is the fulfillment of a long-held childhood dream. I’m so grateful to Nicholas Britell and Disney for allowing me so much creative freedom and for trusting me with Cruella’s beautiful madness.” In April, it was announced that Welch and Thomas Bartlett would be composing music for a new Broadway musical adaptation of "The Great Gatsby." Florence and the Machine released their most recent album, "High as Hope," in 2018.

The animated film will be released in theatres nationwide on June 4 by Universal Pictures. Becky G told ET, “Actually, we will be releasing the lyric video, and there's a little bit of behind the scenes of recording the song and how it all came together. I had so much fun because it's, one, such a fun song and, two, it's a song I would sing to my younger self or even today. I think after the year that we've all lived throughout the pandemic, we have either been inspired to learn and discover more about our own selves or sometimes questioning our place in the world.

Belgian DJ Henri Peiffer unveils his new track “Faith” on Spinnin 'Records. This collaborates with producer CMC $, who also has an impressive discography.

The track is also sublimated by the voice of Laura White, with whom Henri PFR has already been able to collaborate on “The Beat Goes On." The new track serves as the follow-up to his song “No One Knows” and “Madism." It seems that with the regularity of the releases, and the visuals very similar, one can wonder if the Belgian producer is not planning the release of an EP or even an album that has not yet been announced. Henri PFR, Peiffer launched his career through YouTube in 2014 with a mixtape titled 'Summer Memories,' which he uploaded onto the popular La Belle Musique channel.

Canadian singer and songwriter Cooper Bloom has just shared his official debut single, Drinkin Alone, an upbeat electro-pop song about being honest with yourself and speaking your truth. Born and raised just outside of Toronto, Cooper Bloom has been performing since the age of two. Growing up through to his teenage years, also saw Bloom take part in the world of competitive dance, so it seems only natural that we now have the formations of a promising new pop star. The track is infused with a touch of vulnerability that beautifully matches the song's hopeful and positive message. I am very fond of the bass, bright synths, and catchy beat that create an overall feel-good atmosphere that makes "Drinkin Alone" a cool song for the weekend. Cooper Bloom said of the song, “There is strength in being honest with yourself and speaking your truth. The last two years for me have been super difficult. I think drinking during the hard times was an escape for me to stop thinking about the reality of everything going on. 'Drinkin Alone" is hopeful and uplifting, a song that would have helped me when I needed to make a change for the better.”

Singer-songwriter vaultboy has released a debut song, “Everything Sucks." He first teased the single back in January on TikTok as part of a series called "writing a song every day and posting it." "Everything Sucks" made its appearance on day 12, and one might say it became an overnight success with a recent video hitting three million views and climbing. The song was written and produced by vaultboy with help from fellow writer gnash and is very much a feel-good summer track especially as we begin to see a light at the end of this pandemic tunnel. "Everything Sucks" offers relatable lyrics alongside catchy melodies that you can't help but sing along with. In a recent interview, vaultboy said of the song, “It's crazy to me how a song I wrote in my bedroom about looking on the bright side has connected to so many people all over the world. We're all so similar in that way; we're just looking for a reason to smile and be okay.”

London-based singer-songwriter Vanessa Gimenez released her solo debut song “Make It Rain” with an accompanying music video. It's been a long two years since the electro-pop outfit Swimming Girls disbanded. A bright spot in the late 2010's scene, the group dissolved in 2019. Much of what made Swimming Girls so delicious is retained here: Gimenez's vocal is far-off and delicate yet remarkably intimate, while a milky way of synths spins out around her. “Make It Rain was the first song written for this project,” Vanessa Gimenez said. “To me, it's about retaining that childlike sensibility that is full of hope and dreams. A mindset that a lot of people lose once they grow older.” The song will appear on her upcoming debut EP, which is expected to be released later this year.
