]]>2024 has been a pretty epic year for Kendrick Lamar, and just when we thought we’d seen it all – he found a way to impress us again. The rapper’s surprise album GNX hit the shelves this Friday with no prior notice and delivered 12 epic new tracks, with “Luther” emerging as an early favorite.
Most other albums released this Friday were largely overshadowed by Lamar’s latest, but a few still managed to catch our eye. Father John Misty impressed us with “Mental Health” from Mahashmashana, while Michael Kiwanuka deserves a shout-out for “One and Only” from Small Changes.
This week has also been pretty great for Tyla, who’s been on fire this fall. After stirring the commotion with her recent music video for “Push 2 Start”, she surprised us with her new ballad “Tears”, which she performed during the most recent Coke Studio Session.
Check out the rest of our list of the best new songs of the week to discover new music by Wizkid, Omar Apollo, Coi Leray, Three Days Grace, and JoJo.

]]>Twenty One Pilots announced the release of Clancy in late February, and it was initially supposed to hit the shelves on May 17. They also dropped the music video for the lead single “Overcompensate” and shared a 13-song tracklist, revealing they’re planning to film a music video for every single one.
This creative undertaking has proven to be quite challenging, and Tyler Joseph announced they’re delaying the release of Clancy to give themselves enough time to finish all the videos.
“When I first told Josh and Mark and everyone on our team that I wanted to do a music video for every song on the album ‘Clancy’ that’s coming out, I told them it’s because I love these songs and I believe in them enough to pretend to sing in front of a camera for each one,” said Joseph in a video he shared on the social media platform X.
The release of Clancy is now set for May 24, and its third single “Backslide” is hitting the shelves tomorrow.

]]>No album this week created more buzz than Beyoncé’s brilliant new record Cowboy Carter, which will change the way you look at country. Each of the 27 songs on Queen B’s barrier-breaking new album deserves a spot on our list, and we decided to go with “II Most Wanted” ft. Miley Cyrus.
Most mainstream artists made a smart decision and avoided releasing new singles to avoid competing with Beyoncé, but that didn’t stop indie acts from sharing new music with the world.
Some of our favorite alternative rock bands dropped new music this past week, starting with Vampire Weekend’s “Mary Boone”, Twenty One Pilots’ “Next Semester”, and Kings Of Leon’s “Split Screen”. Sum 41 bid farewell with their final album Heaven :x: Hell, which produced their latest single “Dopamine”.
As for the rest of our list for this week, you’ll find everything from Latin collaborations, including “It Was Always You” by Carin León and Leon Bridges and “BYAK” by Alvaro Diaz and Rauw Alejandro, St. Vincent’s “Flea” featuring Dave Grohl on the drums, and several girl power bops, such as Isabel LaRosa’s “Favorite” and Becky Hill’s “Outside of Love”.

]]>“Next Semester” follows “Overcompensate” as the second single from Clancy, and it’s a part of the album’s 13-song tracklist. The Andrew Donoho-directed visual switches between the shots of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun performing this song for the crowd and in the middle of a dimly lit road at night.
In addition to dropping the music video for “Next Semester”, Twenty One Pilots confirmed they’re planning to hit the road pretty soon. They announced the Clancy World Tour, which will include concerts across North America, Australia, and Europe in 2024 and 2025. It will kick off in Denver, Colorado in August and conclude its run with two concerts in London next May.
Twenty One Pilots’ next album Clancy will be released on May 17 via Fueled by Ramen, and it will be the final chapter of the concept album series they’ve been working on for a full decade. This project will be a true visual feast for their fans since they’re planning to film a music video for every song on this album.

]]>Twenty One Pilots dropped several hints that they’re working on a new project before officially announcing Clancy, ranging from letters sent to their fans to billboards and posters featuring their new logo. After weeks of speculations, they finally confirmed their seventh studio album will be released on May 17, and it was worth waiting for!
Clancy will be a true love letter to the duo’s passionate fans who have been following their journey for years. It’s conceived as a final chapter in the story they started telling with their 2015 album Blurryface and later continued exploring with their 2018 album Trench.
This announcement comes shortly after Twenty One Pilots dropped a teaser that features frontman Tyler Joseph saying, “I am trapped, stuck in a cycle I have never been able to break,” before announcing, “I am returning to Trench. I am Clancy,” at the end of the video.
They dropped more Trench references in “Overcompensate”, the lead single from their upcoming album. This song opens with the words “Welcome back to Trench” and interpolates lyrics from the song “Bandito”.

]]>The post Twenty One Pilots Share New Single “Saturday” appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>The uplifting track channels hope for some brighter times after a challenging year. It looks to inspire people to get into party mode and “paint the town” on Saturday.
By the sound of it, the song looks poised to be a club banger when nightlife finds its footing again. Hear it below.
“Saturday” follows two previously released singles from Scaled and Icy, “Choker” and “Shy Away.” The album is set for release on May 21st. It is the group’s sixth studio effort and follows 2018’s critically acclaimed Trench.
The new album was written and produced in major part by frontman and vocalist Tyler Joseph. Joseph worked on the record in his home studio during the coronavirus pandemic while drummer Josh Dun made his contributions remotely.
In a recent interview, Joseph said that the record was purposely made “shiny, and colorful, and seemingly upbeat,” but added that “as you dive into lyrics, a lot of times it’s asking some pretty heavy questions and addressing some pretty heavy things.”
The list of personnel on Scaled and Icy also includes frequent 50 Cent and Eminem collaborator Mike Elizondo, singer and songwriter Paul Meany, and producer Greg Kurstin.

]]>Tyler Joseph recently discussed the duo’s plans for the future with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe and revealed that their next LP is already coming together thanks to social distancing—he always preferred writing, recording, and producing music in isolation.
“I’m not sure when it’ll be released, but it’s definitely going to be really sooner than we were planning on releasing a record. I don’t know if it’s this in-between record or if it’s a continuation of the narrative and where we left off,” explained the singer.
Joseph and his bandmate Josh Dun already proven they’re fully capable of writing, recording, producing, and mixing an entire song from the comfort of their homes with “Level of Concern” which became the band’s seventh single to top Billboard’s Alternative chart, and their fourth to reach no. 1 on the Rock chart.
