Today (September 10), she shared a cover of one of the band’s most iconic songs, “Yellow.” Naturally, Wisp’s version introduces massive-sounding, overdriven guitars while also retaining much of the tenderness of the original recording.
Wisp says of the song, “‘Yellow’ to me is a childhood memory that I wanted to rendition into my present life. A song that I never understood the depth of, to now relating to the lyrics and singing them with the emotion of my romantic journeys this past year.”

Militarie Gun became one of the buzziest rock bands following the release of their 2023 debut album Life Under The Gun. They’re looking to keep the momentum going on their upcoming sophomore release, God Save The Gun.
They offered another look at the project today (September 10) with “Throw Me Away.” The band’s Ian Shelton says of the song, “‘Throw Me Away’ is about the feeling of only being valued when you’re visible or useful and the desperate need to hold onto that. What someone loves about you one day might be cited as a reason they hate you now. It’s the desire for external validation and also the deep resentment of it.”
“I’m well aware that being this vulnerable turns my personal trauma into a marketing hook for this album. But I’m fine with it, if not provoking it. Over the past couple years, as I spoke about addiction from the perspective of someone affected by it, I became the one struggling with it. There’s a farcical logic to entering a situation, fully knowing the consequences, and doing it anyway – but that’s where my head was when I started leaning on drinking.”
Watch the “Throw Me Away” video above. Below, find the God Save The Gun cover art and tracklist, as well as Militarie Gun’s upcoming tour dates.

Sudan Archives‘ last few singles may have shown off the Midwestern violinist’s rap skills, but on her latest, “Come And Find You,” her production and instrumentalism take the spotlight. Blending elements of Afropop, electronic, and jazz music, “Come And Find You” creates an ever-evolving backdrop for a song about seeking connection and chasing down a romantic interest.
According to the press release, Sudan Archives built the beat around a loop created by one of her stylists, Umesi. Instrumentation was added in real-time, building out the melodies, while another friend later added the drums. Sudan herself contributed the vocals, singing, “Come to me now my dear /
I don’t need my belongings / You drive me mad, so mad / I can’t help it, I want to know why / Everything is so clear / I don’t fear / Even though this will end / It all ends / We all sin / We all win.”
“Come And Find You” is just the latest single from Sudan Archives’ upcoming album, The BPM. Each of the previous singles — “Dead”, “My Type,” and “Ms. Pac Man” — offered a different, upbeat perspective of the upcoming project, but with the latest, she shows that it’s even more multifaceted than anyone could have expected.
You can listen to “Come And Find You” above.
The BPM is due on 10/17 via Stones Throw Records. You can find more info here.
In 2021, California superproducer The Alchemist teamed up with New York underground rap duo Armand Hammer (Elucid and Billy Woods) to release Haram, a multilayered project that I’m told had quite some impact on that side of the country.
Today, the unofficial trio has announced the follow-up, Mercy, which is due November 7 via Backwoodz Studioz, with physical distribution by Rhmesayers Entertainment. Features on the album will include Cleo Reed, Earl Sweatshirt, Kapwani, Pink Siifu, Quelle Chris, and Silka, with all the production handled by The Alchemist.
While Mercy will be Armand Hammer’s first album since 2023’s We Buy Diabetic Test Strips, it’s Billy Woods’ second project of the year, following Golliwog, and Elucid’s first since last year’s Revelator. Meanwhile, The Alchemist has been the busiest of the three, teaming up with Yasiin Bey for a full-length project, Forensics, Larry June and 2 Chainz for another, Life Is Beautiful, and Freddie Gibbs for a third, Alfredo 2, the sequel to their 2020 album, Alfredo. He still has another album on the way with Erykah Badu, Abi & Alan, although its release was delayed — presumably because Al has so much going on at once.
Mercy is due 11/7 via Backwoodz Studioz. You can find more info here.
This summer, Whitney announced a new album, Small Talk. They have big plans for supporting it, too: Today (September 10), the band announced a world tour, including North American dates that start in March 2026. Tickets are available on the band’s website.
They also shared the single “Back To The Wind.” The band’s Julien Ehrlich says of the song:
“I think what’s stuck with me most about ‘Back To The Wind’ is the way the imagery ended up unfolding across the instrumental. In the past we’ve always insisted that each word on a lyric sheet so deliberately leads you back to the sentiment of the hook that it almost leaves no room for imagination. With ‘BTTW’ it felt more compelling to steer the second half into a series of images that might mean something different to each person that hears it. And since this was the first song we wrote for the record I think it informed the way we pushed ourselves to explore and dig deeper lyrically overall. Also Max’s guitar solo goes crazy.”

Another day, another Cardi B post promoting her long-awaited sophomore album, Am I The Drama?. In the process of promoting the album, she’s shown she’s willing to get back to basics, pulling out all the stops as she jokes about being a working single mother and fearing “going back to the strip club.” After promoting a series of alternate covers for CD versions of the album, Cardi has employed yet another old-school method: The ever reliable in-store meet-and-greet.
In her latest Instagram video, Cardi quips: “Hear ye, hear ye! Due to the ‘Imaginary Playerz‘ music video, Atlantic Records has done some deductions to my album’s budget!” After pulling out a humorously labeled envelope and revealing her new budget is “$50,” she announces she has to “go on the road and sell these CDs and vinyl myself.” Therefore, next week, starting Friday, she might be coming to a city near you. She reveals the locations, which include New York, Atlanta, Houston, and more. You can find more info here and see below for the full list of stores.

Ed Sheeran’s new album Play is out in a couple days. The next album, dubbed Rewind, is already just about finished. That doesn’t mean it will be out soon, though.
“I made Play and Rewind at the same time, and we finished Play first because it felt like the most exciting one. So Rewind is, I’d say, two months off being totally locked and loaded and ready to go. […] I guess at some point in the next 18 months, it will come out.”
He also discussed the similarities and differences between the projects, saying, “They’re very much like twin albums. But one lent more into Indian culture and one lent more into nostalgia. So they veered off in different directions. […] With each album you have the songs you think are the singles, and then in the gaps… basically you have to do purposeful songs rather than having 10 singles. You do a song like ‘Azizam’ and a song like ‘Sapphire,’ but then a song like ‘Old Phone’ and ‘A Little More.’ I feel like they give the album a journey and purpose rather than it just being bangers.”
NPR Tiny Desk Concerts are usually a space for artists to take it down a notch. Instead of that, though, Turnstile went ahead and did the first-ever Tiny Desk stage dive.
The performance, which was shared today (September 10), also features the band drastically reworking their songs to fit the restricted environment. The band leans more on piano and horns here, for example. The five-song set featured all tracks from the new album Never Enough: “Dreaming,” “Sunshower,” “I Care,” “Never Enough,” and “Birds.”
Watch the performance above and find the band’s upcoming tour dates, which kick off next week, below.

Despite having a flourishing rap career, Cardi B has also been hard at work at building a family. While working on her second album, Am I The Drama?, she popped out with not just one, but two kids, giving her daughter Kulture two younger siblings before the project even had a title or release date.
Appearing on The Jennifer Hudson Show to promote that album, the Bronx native joked that she wanted even more kids, giving a hilariously unhinged line of reasoning for the desire. “The more kids you have, the less of a possibility you go to, like, a [nursing] home,” she explained. “One of them is gonna wipe my butt!”
Cardi also explained how she kept the kids grounded despite spoiling them rotten on their birthdays. “They have like a lot of cousins and a lot of my friends, they still outside, they still in the hood and everything,” she noted. “They was just in the Dominican Republic and it’s like, yeah, my grandma gonna make [them] clean and stuff. I want them to know that there’s another world out there that is not your world. It’s not always about [the] backyard, and foxes and deers — there’s rats and mices.”
You can watch Cardi’s interview with Jennifer Hudson above.
Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party, Hayley Williams’ batch-of-singles-turned-album, came out last month. The Paramore leader still has more to do on this front, though, as she just shared a new video for “Parachute” today.
The visual was directed, filmed, and edited by Zachary Gray. In it, Williams sings the song calmly in a dark room before letting her energy out by dancing around and running through a field.
Meanwhile, Williams recently addressed rumors of a Paramore break-up in light of her solo work, saying, “We always take huge breaks. In order for us to metabolize sh*t that we go through as people, it takes the amount of time it takes between albums. […] I feel such a vindication in knowing that nobody can discount Paramore. But it’s also really important for me to strengthen other muscles and these parts of myself that I deflated because I was scared that people were going to notice me too much.”
