Keeping up with new music can be exhausting, even impossible. From the weekly album releases to standalone singles dropping on a daily basis, the amount of music is so vast it’s easy for something to slip through the cracks. Even following along with the Uproxx recommendations on a daily basis can be a lot to ask, so every Monday we’re offering up this rundown of the best new music this week.
This week saw Selena Gomez collab with a major up-and-comer and Tate McRae continue building her pop legacy. Yeah, it was a great week for new music. Check out the highlights below.
Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco, and Gracie Abrams — “Call Me When You Break Up”
How’s this for evidence that Gracie Abrams is approaching top-tier pop stardom: She landed herself a slot on Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s anticipated new album by featuring on last week’s super-fun single “Call Me When You Break Up.”
Jennie and Doechii — “ExtraL”
Doechii and Blackpink’s Jennie are two of the biggest rising stars in pop and hip-hop, respectively, and now they’ve hitched their rising rockets to each other for a new collab, “ExtraL.” Both Blackpink and Doechii have reputations for delivering high-effort and provocative videos, and that’s indeed what they’ve done for the song’s accompanying visual.
J. Cole — “Clouds”
J. Cole is a full-blown blogger these days, and he made the internet feel old-school for a minute week when he used his blog to share a new song, “Clouds.” Unsurprisingly given the title, the track has dreamy production courtesy of Cole, who uses the soft instrumental to deliver some rhythmic wordplay.
Yung Lean — “Forever Yung”
After emerging as a bit of a internet cloud rap oddball about a decade ago, Yung Lean has proven his longevity as he gears up to release a new album, Jonatan. He teased it last week with “Forever Yung,” which, as expected, isn’t typical of most contemporary hip-hop, a.k.a. it’s more of Yung Lean doing Yung Lean.
Paris Texas — “Infinyte”
Rap duo Paris Texas have been building up buzz by doing their own thing, and that continues to be apparent on last week’s “Infinyte.” It sees the two adding to the rap-rock oeuvre on a chaotic new track.
Tate McRae — “Revolving Door”
McRae’s new album So Close To What has already yielded “Sports Car,” one of his biggest hits since her first major hit, 2023’s “Greedy.” It remains to be seen what will be next on that front, but we now have some more candidates with last week’s release of McRae’s latest album, such as the dreamy and energetic “Revolving Door.”
Don Toliver and Speedy — “LV Bag” Feat. J-Hope and Pharrell Williams
Toliver just released Hardstone Psycho in June, but he’s already following up the album with new material. It sees him spreading his wings and welcoming some unexpected guests into the fold, too, with Pharrell and BTS’ J-Hope joining in on “LV Bag.”
Suki Waterhouse — “Dream Woman”
Following last year’s Memoir Of A Sparklemuffin, Suki Waterhouse has herself a sold-out residency at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles next month. She’ll have at least one new song to perform, too, as she just released the ethereal “Dream Woman.”
If you see Tyler The Creator walking down the street and feel compelled to say something to him, maybe compliment him on how much you love Chromakopia or Loiter Squad or his GOLF life, then move on. What you absolutely shouldn’t do is ask him a “weird ass” question.
“yo when you see me dont be asking questions like ‘whY are you here in a major city….. are you renting a house here…where you going’ like n***a I AM NOT YOUR FRIEND, are you a cop? weird ass questions,” Tyler wrote on X. “say hi blah blah and keep it moving so i can finish my walk lol.”
If you want to ask Tyler a non-weird-ass question in a major city, you can check out the remaining dates for the Chromakopia world tour below.

Lorde appears on “Kāhore He Manu E,” the latest single from Te Whare Tīwekaweka. In a statement, Williams called the song “one of those gentle labours. It played itself out to me, easily and near complete from the first. It was also obvious who should be singing it; Ella’s voice in a very real sense wrote the song. The distinct and striking characteristics in her voice cornering and demanding of the melody and phrasing what only her voice could.”
“Over the course of several years I watched Marlon pull at the threads that became Te Whare Tīwekaweka,” Lorde added. “I saw that the further he got into the album, the deeper my friend came to know himself, his whānau and his world at large. Marlon is an undercover perfectionist, and he was never going to embark on this journey without turning over every stone, crafting complex waiata that speak to the past while also braiding in his characteristic humour and X-ray vision. Singing with Marlon is one of my favourite things to do on earth, whether we are tipsy backstage by a pool table or in a luscious studio, and I was honoured he asked me to sing with him on this album.”
You can watch the video for “Kāhore He Manu E” above. The making of Te Whare Tīwekaweka was also documented in a documentary, Marlon Williams: Ngā Ao E Rua — Two Worlds, the trailer for which you can see here.
Te Whare Tīwekaweka is out 4/4. Find more information here.
In October, K-Pop pioneer G-Dragon returned to the spotlight with the video for his new single “Power.” Then, earlier this month, 88rising announced he is part of the lineup for the returning Head In The Clouds festival this spring.
Today, he completed his comeback with the release of Übermensch, his first project in over a decade, accompanied by two music videos: “Drama” and “Too Bad” featuring Anderson .Paak. Andy’s been getting back to his Korean roots a bunch lately, working with K-pop fixtures and even directing and producing a film called K-Pops!, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last summer.
In the video for “Drama,” the singer presents himself as a wind-up toy, who dances with his partner on a round platform as a camera circles them. The visual metaphor for the entertainment industry is not subtle, but works well in getting G-Dragon’s point across. The video for “Too Bad” is much more colorful, putting Dragon’s penchant for peacocking on display with some elaborate ensembles paired with an upbeat dance-pop track.
In a press release for Übermensch, G-Dragon said, “‘Übermensch’ means ‘Beyond-Man,’ representing an individual who transcends themselves. This album embodies the idea of presenting a stronger and more resilient version of oneself to the public. I hope this strength resonates with my fans through my music.”
Watch G-Dragon’s videos for “Drama” and “Too Bad” featuring Anderson .Paak above.
Übermensch is out now via EMPIRE. You can find more info here.
Beyoncé and Levi’s are in cahoots. The “Levii’s Jeans” singer and the denim purveyors first teamed up for a 2024 ad, in which Beyoncé stripped down to her underwear in a re-make of a classic Levi’s commercial. Now, they’re at it again.
Yesterday (February 24), Levi’s dropped a new Beyoncé-starring ad. In it, a denim-clad Beyoncé rolls up to a bar’s pool table, where she challenges a stern-looking cowboy to a game, which Beyoncé quickly wins. Of course, there are plenty of shots Beyoncé showing off what a pair of Levi’s looks like on her.
Speaking of videos featuring Beyoncé, fans have long been waiting for the promised sequel to her and Lady Gaga’s iconic “Telephone” video from 2010. Well, Gaga addressed that recently, saying that she does intend to release the video’s continuation, although she’s not yet sure when. She also smiled and said “maybe” when asked if Beyoncé will be in the new one.
Is Sabrina Carpenter about to praise Kier? Not quite. On Monday (February 24), the “Espresso” singer shared a 10-second video in an Instagram Story showing her getting into an elevator. As Carpenter turns to face the viewer, the camera zooms in on her face, not unlike the “severed” effect from the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ series Severance to signify the transition from the outside world to the cold, melon bar-party workplace of Lumon.
Unfortunately, Carpenter isn’t about to participate in a “Music Dance Experience.” The video she shared is a promo for Prada Beauty; she was announced as a ambassador for the brand last year, and even wore Prada lipstick in the “Taste” music video. But a lot of people immediately thought of Severance when they saw her getting into that elevator.
“why’d i think she was going to guest star on severance i’m crying,” one fan on X wrote. Another added, “scrolled too fast on sabrina carpenter’s instagram story and thought she was entering the severance elevator or something.”
Here’s more:
Why it look like she’s about to start working at Lumon?? (via)
