Friday Music Guide: New Music From LISA, Lizzo, Benson Boone & More

This week's Friday Music Guide includes LISA, Lizzo, Benson Boone and more.

Both D4vd and Kali Chis are young, kinetic stars with classic pop sensibilities, so it’s not surprising that their new collaboration, “Crashing,” features a lilting hook and shimmering harmonies that could work on both top 40 radio and TikTok feeds; both artists have scored viral hits in the past, and they might have a traditional one here. Part of the reason why Dasha broke through with “Austin” last year was due to the song’s combination of evocative lyrical detail and folk-informed country — and with new single “Not at This Party,” the singer-songwriter revisits a winning formula, as she checks her phone in a bathroom line and lets her mind wander to happier times while banjo and guitar strings get strummed around her voice. Banks recently told Billboard that new album Off With Her Head is “about shedding past identities that no longer resonate” — and while the veteran singer-songwriter’s latest project will please longtime listeners, she does indeed tinker with the edges of her alt-pop, particularly on collaborations with Doechii and Sampha that serve as highlights.
