What’s Your Favorite New Music Release of the Week? Vote!


Dua Lipa, Kendrick Lamar and more have new music this week. What's the best new music of the week? Vote in our poll.

From radically optimistic pop songs to unflinchingly pessimistic diss tracks, this week has been filled with notable new music releases. Dua Lipa returned Friday (May 3) with her highly anticipated third album, Radical Optimism, an 11-track dance-pop set that finds the star departing somewhat from her disco-infused Future Nostalgia sheen in favor of a more summery sound. The week was also full of big collaborations, with Imagine Dragons and J Balvin teaming up for “Eyes Closed,” and Kane Brown joining forces with Marshmello for a follow-up to their 2019 “One Thing Right” duet, “Miles on It.” Plus, Gunna dropped new single “WhatsApp (Wassam)” one week ahead of his fast-approaching album One of Wun, while Willow served up her sixth studio record, Empathogen.
