Anybody who thought the vinyl resurgence was just a fad was mistaken: The industry has experienced a legitimate revival. As a result, music fans are interested in physical media in ways they may not have if the decades-old medium hasn’t made a comeback. That doesn’t mean everybody is listening to just their parents’ old music, though. That’s part of it, sure, thanks to rereleases that present classic albums in new ways. A vital part of the renewed vinyl wave, though, is new projects being released as records, of which there are plenty.

Whatever you might be into, each month brings a new slew of vinyl releases that has something for everybody. Some stand out above the rest, naturally, so check out some of our favorite vinyl releases of February below.

Bon Jovi — Slippery When Wet (Reissue)

Do you know “You Give Love A Bad Name,” “Livin’ On A Prayer,” or “Wanted Dead Or Alive”? You do, yes. What’s wild is all of those songs are on the same Bon Jovi album, 1986’s Slippery When Wet, which has now gotten a reissue in various configurations, including a liquid-filled vinyl that’s limited to 1,300 copies. Because, you know, when an album is called Slippery When Wet, of course you fill it with liquid.

Father John Misty — I Love You, Honeybear (Reissue)

FJM just released his latest album, Mahashmashana, but now he’s celebrating ten years of his breakout solo album I Love You, Honeybear. To that end, he has given it a new vinyl reissue, and there’s also a digital-only collection of demos that initially came out on a 2015 cassette.

The Temptations — Puzzle People

Diana Ross & The Supremes — Let The Sunshine In

Four Tops — Changing Times

Motown is working its way through a 2025 full of vinyl reissues from their back catalog. This month offers a few ways into the Motown library, including releases from The Temptations, Diana Ross & The Supremes, and Four Tops.

Get it here.

Sabrina Carpenter — Short N’ Sweet (Deluxe)

Short N’ Sweet was massive in 2024, and Carpenter has given it continued life in 2025 with a deluxe reissue. It adds a handful of songs, perhaps most notably a new “Please Please Please” remix with Dolly Parton.

Get it here.

Bob Marley — Catch A Fire, Burnin’, Natty Dread, Rastaman Vibration, Exodus, Kaya, and Uprising (Reissues)

February 6 would have been Bob Marley’s 80th birthday, so the reggae icon’s estate is celebrating. They went big, too, with a bunch of reissues of some of his best projects. They come in a variety of formats, too, including 33rpm UHQR, 45rpm UHQR, 2LP 45rpm, SACD, and reel-to-reel tape (15 IPS on 1/4 inch tape). These extremely high quality pressings are sure to be the definitive versions for your collection.

John Coltrane — A Love Supreme: 60th Anniversary Edition

A Love Supreme is synonymous with jazz, and this year, the 1965 classic turns 60. Now there’s a new anniversary edition of the album that’s pressed on gorgeous semi-clear diamond vinyl, a fitting aesthetic high-point for this masterpiece.

Get it here.

Maribou State — Hallucinating Love

Hallucinating Love is electronic duo Maribou State’s first album in seven years. It follows a challenging period for the group, which saw Chris Davids dealing with pressure on his brain caused by a condition called chiari malformation. But, he made it through and the end result is a long-anticipated and well-received new LP.

Get it here.

Daddy Yankee — Barrio Fino (Vinyl Me, Please Reissue)

Puerto Rican icon Daddy Yankee declared towards the end of 2023 that he was retiring from music. If this is the end of him, we’ll always have his back catalog, including 2004’s Barrio Fino (the “Gasolina” album), which Vinyl Me, Please has reissued and pressed on lovely “Blanco y Negro” vinyl.

Get it here.

Tate McRae — So Close To What

Tate McRae is having a star moment with her new album So Close To What (which does indeed feature Sydney Sweeney). The picture disc release is a gorgeous way to own what’s likely to go down as one of 2025’s best albums.

Get it here.

Bartees Strange — Horror

Horror is one of 2025’s best indie albums so far, but at the end of the year, it’ll likely be in consideration for one of the year’s best album covers. It’s simple but bold and striking, and it makes for an especially appealing vinyl release.

What’s your favorite example of an athlete making a cameo in a music video? Over the last few months, we’ve documented some of the best examples of NBA players who have popped up in music videos over the years, as a number of the biggest names in basketball have shown love to artists over the years.

The thing is there are a ton of examples of this, so many that we’ve gone back to the well once again. Here are six more examples from over the years of NBA players making cameos in music videos.

J.R. Smith: “BedRock” by Young Money

The most famous track on “We Are Young Money,” the compilation album by Young Money Entertainment, was the single “BedRock,” which includes verses by Lil Wayne, Gudda Gudda, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Tyga, and Jae Millz, along with an iconic hook by Lloyd. There are a ton of cameos in this, which includes a very brief one from Smith, who at the time was a member of the Denver Nuggets, towards the end.

LeBron James: “D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)” by Jay-Z

Jay-Z packs a ton into the music video for the first single off of “The Blueprint 3,” which included him playing some 1-on-1 with the future Hall of Fame inductee. At one point, we see Hov take a jumper that LeBron contests, although the camera cuts away before we could see if it went in or not. Still, with all respect to Jay-Z, I think I’d take LeBron in that one.

Stephon Marbury and Kenny Anderson: “Whatcha Gon Do?” by Terror Squad

Terror Squad are New York through and through, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that a pair of New York legends appeared in the video for “Whatcha Gon Do?” It would be safe to assume that Starbury and Mr. Chibbs would be a handful to play 2-on-2 against, and unfortunately for Fat Joe and Cuban Link, they learned that lesson the hard way in this … well, at least for the first half of the video or so.

Lamar Odom: “Knock Yourself Out” by Jadakiss

In keeping with the New York theme, Jadakiss got a cameo from one of Queens’ finest. Then again, Odom’s brief cameo in this video features him dancing while wearing his own jersey from his time as a member of the Los Angeles Clippers.

Ray Allen: “He Got Game” by Public Enemy feat. Stephen Stills

This one is kind of cheating, because Public Enemy was tasked with putting together the soundtrack for the 1998 Spike Lee film that shares a name with this single, the only one released off of the album. Unsurprisingly, Allen featured in the music video heavily, as he starred in “He Got Game” as Jesus Shuttlesworth. He was great in the movie, and the track is pretty great, too.

Alonzo Mourning, Muggsy Bogues, Alex English, Walt Williams, Charles Smith: “Only Wanna Be With You” by Hootie and the Blowfish

There are a ton of sports cameos in the music video for the third single off of “Cracked Rear View,” with guys like Chris Berman and Dan Marino making appearances. There’s a ton of NBA talent, too, as Mourning, Bogues, English, Williams, and Smith all play basketball against Hootie and the Blowfish. Why, you may ask? Well, according to Darius Rucker in a piece that Entertainment Weekly ran in 1995, “it was just a way to meet all our idols.”

Julian Casablancas’ band that isn’t The Strokes, The Voidz, just released a new album, Like All Before You, in September 2024. Even still, they’re ready with every more new material: Today (March 3), they shared a new song, “Blue Demon.”

A press release calls the track “a sonic rebellion that fuses electric sonics, jagged guitar riffs, Julian’s signature, eerie falsetto, and, as always, a propulsive drum rhythm.” The single is the first taste of a new EP that’s set to be released “this spring,” but a title and specific release date haven’t been revealed yet.

Shortly after the latest Voidz album, Casablancas indicated he prefers working with The Voidz over The Strokes. He also said of the latter band, “I think I put political thoughts now in Strokes songs, too. I always have to some degree. I definitely think a lot of Strokes fans don’t get that about it so much, which is maybe why I’ve kind of stepped away a little bit. But it’s a very cool day job that I’m honored to have, so I don’t feel negatively about it. If it was wasting so much of my time that I couldn’t do anything positive, then I would. But I don’t let it get to that point. At least I don’t think so. I could be lying to myself.”

Listen to “Blue Demon” above.

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 Blackpink’s Lisa expand her solo empire and Lizzo make a big comeback. Yeah, it was a great week for new music. Check out the highlights below.

For more music recommendations, check out our Listen To This section, as well as our Indie Mixtape and Pop Life newsletters.

Lisa — “Fxck Up The World”

It’s Lisa season: She’s in the new season of The White Lotus and the Blackpink star just released her debut solo album, Alter Ego. The K-pop star goes hard on “Fxck Up The World,” which arrived in both a solo version and one with Future.

Lizzo — “Love In Real Life”

Lizzo has remained mostly out of the spotlight since facing controversy in 2023. 2025 is her comeback year, though, as she proved last week with “Love In Real Life,” a rock-inspired song that sees Lizzo confront some of her recent roadblocks.

Djo — “Delete Ya”

Stranger Things star Joe Keery is looking to follow up a massive 2024 for his music alter ego Djo; He had one of the ten most-streamed songs in the world on Spotify last year. He started his 2025 last week with a new single, “Delete Ya,” which is another example of Keery’s superlative ability to bring retro inspirations to present day.

Halsey — “Safeword”

This is Halsey at her most provocative. In the video for “Safeword,” her first new song since last year’s The Great Impersonator, there’s plenty of leather and spanking, all set to the extremely riot grrrl song.

Tate McRae — “Siren Sounds”

McRae made her debut as an SNL musical guest in 2023, and she came back for her second go this past weekend. Before that, though, she went ahead and dropped a deluxe edition of her new album So Close To What, including the anthemic pop ballad “Siren Sounds.”

d4vd and Kali Uchis — “Crashing”

d4vd is prepping the release of Withered, and while the project is a couple months away, it sounds like a winner so far. He previewed it last week with “Crashing,” a chilled-out Kali Uchis collab.

2hollis — “Style”

After a breakout 2024, 2hollis is starting 2025 strong with “Style.” The new single runs for well under two minutes, but it’s a fun mish-mash of electronic and hip-hop while it lasts.

Jane Remover — “Dancing With Your Eyes Closed”

Jane Remover has a new album coming out at some point in the near future, and while the release date is uncertain, what we do know is that it’ll include last week’s “Dancing With Your Eyes Closed.” The digicore number is a real blast from the past that’s also absolutely welcome in 2025.

Julien Baker & Torres — “Tuesday”

Baker and Torres are in their country era and they indulge in the genre’s storytelling tradition with “Tuesday.” Last week’s single sees the pair singing about a love that starts song before meeting some tragic controversy.

Little Simz — “Flood”

UK rap favorite Little Simz is, thankfully, readying her first new album since 2022’s No Thank You. She announced the project last week, when she also shared “Flood,” a menacing, tense, drum-driven number that serves as an appealing continuation of Simz’s hip-hop experimentation.

Fast-rising K-pop girl group Babymonster made their U.S. concert debut last week at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. That wasn’t the only opportunity for the Monstiez (as their fanbase is known) to see Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Rami, Rora, and Chiquitain live, however. Babymonster has announced additional North American dates for Babymonster 1st World Tour (Hello Monsters), including stops in Atlanta, Fort Worth, and Seattle.

Tickets for the newly added shows will be available beginning on Friday, March 7, at 3 p.m. local time. Fans can also purchase VIP Packages. You can find more information here.

In an interview with The Los Angeles Times, Rami said, “It hasn’t even been a full year since we debuted with our mini-album, Babymons7er, but we are so happy with how everything has turned out and incredibly grateful to have received so much love from the beginning.” Rora added, “Babymonster plans to work as hard to continue this momentum and spread K-pop and Korean culture to the whole world.”

You can find the Babymonster 1st World Tour (Hello Monsters) North American dates below.

Elton John didn’t win an Academy Award on Sunday night; “Never Too Late,” his song with Brandi Carlile for the Disney Plus-streaming documentary Elton John: Never Too Late, lost to “El Mal” from Emilia Pérez.

Something tells me the “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” legend isn’t too bitter about it, though, since A) he already has two Oscars (for The Lion King and Rocketman), and B) later that night, he performed with Chappell Roan at his annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Party.

Roan performed an 11-song set at the party, ending with a cover of “Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me” and her own “Pink Pony Club,” both with John.

You can watch the footage here.

John is a huge Chappell Roan fan. “It’s been a long time since I’ve witnessed someone master the art of performing so early in their career. Congratulations, Chappell Roan, you smashed it!” he wrote on Facebook following a 2024 performance at London’s O2 Academy Brixton.

On his Apple Music radio show, Rocket Hour, John also told Roan, “I rang you the other night and said, ‘Listen, I’m not stalking you, but I’m as excited about your album’s success as you are.’ It’s wonderful to see true talent being recognized.”

There was a world where MGK enthusiast Bob Dylan could have presented, and even performed, at the 2025 Oscars yesterday (March 2). That world wasn’t meant to be, but it wasn’t due to a lack of trying: Per The Hollywood Reporter, Dylan was asked to both present and perform, but he was apparently unable or interested.

As NME notes, Dylan had a presence at the ceremony via some jokes about him.

Mick Jagger made an unannounced appearance to introduce the Best Original Song category, and he quipped, “The producers wanted Bob Dylan to do it, but Bob didn’t want to. ‘The best songs this year are obviously in A Complete Unknown. You should find somebody younger.’ OK, I’m younger than Bob! So here I am.”

Host Conan O’Brien also joked during his opening monologue, “Dylan wanted to be here tonight, but not that badly.”

The Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown was up for a whopping eight awards last night: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor for Timothée Chalamet, Best Sound, Best Supporting Actress for Monica Barbaro, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Costume Design, and Best Supporting Actor for Edward Norton. Despite how much Chalamet wanted it, though, the movie went home with no wins.

Find the full list of this year’s Academy Award winners here.

In the end, this year’s Oscars ceremony was (almost) all about Anora.

That’s an exaggeration, of course, but our own Josh Kurp called it early (last September) while labelling Sean Baker’s movie as a Best Picture frontrunner, which is (in the words of indie distributor NEON) “a f*ckboi fairytale” that has now taken The Academy by storm. This tragicomedy, revolving around an exotic dancer who briefly marries a Russian oligarch’s son, cleaned up with the Best Picture award and Best Actress honor for Mikey Madison.

This followed Baker’s three other wins for Best Director, Best Editing, and Best Screenplay. During his multiple times at the mic, Baker roasted himself while also thanking his dog (for editing tips) and sex workers for their stories, which he used to help craft his rollicking, screwball, and at-times heartbreaking movie. The film came together on a mere $6 million budget and emerged as the Palme d’Or-winner at last year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Below, you can watch Mikey Madison’s speech, in which she declared her intent to “continue to support and be an ally” to the sex worker community. She added, “All of the incredible people, the women that I’ve had the privilege of meeting from that community has been one of the highlights of this incredible experience.”

And the Best Picture award speech for Anora is here as well.

Conan O’Brien began his Oscars hosting gig by crawling out of a replica of Demi Moore’s torso in The Substance, and he kept the jokes coming steadily throughout the broadcast. And because he apparently could not resist, the evening had to include a “Say Drake”-style joke to reference Kendrick Lamar’s diss track performance of “Not Like Us” at Super Bowl LIX.

Kendrick’s Big Game performance was ultimately larger than Drake, but of course, O’Brien went for the primetime punchline: “Well, we’re halfway through the show, which means it’s time for Kendrick Lamar to come out and call Drake a pedophile.” He then added, “Don’t worry, I’m lawyered up” You can watch the bane of Drake’s existence continue at this video link.

In the aforementioned song, Lamar’s lyrics made reference to Drake’s Certified Lover Boy album title, which brought a live audience response that was even louder in stadium (including the “a minor” lyric) than it appeared on TV. For his part, Drake has issued multiple responses to Kendrick’s lyrics (which appear to accuse Drake of sexual misconduct) both within his own lyrics and in defamation-lawsuit form against his label, Universal Music Group.

In response to Drake’s lawsuit, UMG has characterized Drake’s defamation claims as “illogical” and the lawsuit as “frivolous litigation.”

As for O’Brien’s continuance of the “Not Like Us” jab, Drake hasn’t issued a public response… yet.
