Sam Ryder steps forward with a huge burst of creative spark on his new album ‘Heartland’, a pop soul celebration full of power, warmth and soaring vocals. The record arrives with his new single “The Feeling Never Went Away”, a track built on a pulsing bassline and a vocal that lights up every corner of the mix. The single opens the door to a world of feeling, reflection and rhythm shaped by Sam’s bold vision.
Sam shares the heart of the song with clarity and emotion. He says, “It’s about still having feelings for someone or something even though they perhaps don’t deserve them anymore, but you can’t help it, it’s chemical. In my own life that finds its form in the shape of struggles or demons I’ve had over the past year or so, and even though I think I’ve conquered them, back they come. I think ultimately healing and breaking the cycle is about recognizing these feelings and accepting them and knowing that although the feeling might never go away, it doesn’t define us.” His voice carries that sentiment with strength and openness.
‘Heartland’ brings together Sam’s songwriting, guitar hooks and vocal range in a rich and expansive sound he calls frontier soul. The album was created with a remarkable team of collaborators who helped shape its color and depth. Each track builds on Sam’s creativity and love of storytelling, forming a collection that moves with cinematic flair and heartfelt intention.
Sam’s momentum continues as he plays his biggest headline show at Wembley Arena and celebrates recent performances on NBC’s Today and The Kelly Clarkson Show. His journey reaches new heights as he reconnects with his inspirations, his fans and the frontier soul spirit that defines the record.
FattMack, the 19-year-old rising star from Mobile, Alabama, delivers his boldest body of work yet with the release of Untreated Trauma, out now via Great Day Records. The new project arrives on the heels of a standout year and further cements his voice as one of the most urgent and unfiltered in rap today. Across Untreated Trauma, FattMack leans fully into his signature style: raw, reflective, and razor-sharp. The project showcases his storytelling, emotional range, and ability to turn pain into power, tapping into the realities of coming up too fast, surviving too much, and making it through the chaos with honesty intact.
The release follows his acclaimed April mixtape Here to Stay and a high-profile set at Roots Picnic in June, where he rocked a packed crowd in Philadelphia. With tracks like “Fake Love” (feat. Raq Baby & BAK Jay), “Kai Cenat,” and the fan-favorite “Hit It” with Lil Tony, FattMack’s streaming numbers have soared past 147 million, with over 5 million streams per week. Untreated Trauma isn’t just a project—it’s a fearless statement, reflecting the mental toll of navigating fame and survival, and offering an even deeper look into one of rap’s most compelling new voices.
British pop provocateur Rose Gray unveils a dazzling new version of her single Everything Changes (But I Won’t) featuring Shygirl and Casey MQ, marking a sonic shift from its original form. Blending orchestral flourishes with synth-soaked textures and heartfelt lyricism, the remix emerges as a powerful ode to emotional resilience within long-term love, elevated by the distinct sonic fingerprints of her two featured collaborators.
“I’ve loved Shy’s music since her first EP dropped. There was no one else I wanted to reimagine this track with,” Rose shares. “Same goes for Casey MQ, an absolute genius. I flipped the lyrics slightly and focused on a moment where everything had changed ‘so f***ing much.’ It’s orchestral, it’s sexy.”
Originally featured as a centerpiece on Rose’s critically-acclaimed debut album Louder, Please, Everything Changes (But I Won’t) stood out as a reflective and powerful anthem amid a collection of club-driven euphoria. The album, released in January, also features singles like “Party People,” “Free,” “Angel Of Satisfaction,” “Switch” and “Wet & Wild,” capturing Rose’s evolution from Walthamstow dreamer to dancefloor force.
With collaborators ranging from pop royalty like Justin Tranter and Zhone to underground heroes like Sega Bodega and Uffie, Louder, Please fuses classic pop hooks with rave aesthetics. It’s a love letter to nightlife, emotional release, and Rose’s own story of catharsis, heartbreak, and self-discovery.

In addition to the 3 remixes, Elmiene delivers brand new track “By Now” – a melodic reflection of trying to move on from a past flame. An early version of ‘By Now’ first debuted in Live From 525 (skip to 13:19), which created the blueprint for Elmiene’s Live From___ series of intimate shows.

Sekou Releases Mixtape ‘In A World We Don’t Belong Pt. 1’ Featuring Breakout Single “Love Language” Following his re-emergence earlier this year, British singer/songwriter Sekou unveils his mixtape In A World We Don’t Belong Pt. 1. Showcasing his signature sound and musical warmth, the mixtape features lead single ‘Love Language’. The 5-track project arrives ahead of his headline show next week (20th November) at London’s Bush Hall, which sold out in minutes.
Commencing with recently released tracks ‘Never Gunna Give You Up’ and ‘Catching Bodies’, we are welcomed in with an immediately joyous prowess. From the offset, Sekou invites the listener into a world of protected and provoked vulnerability, depicted with undeniable, loyal strength.
With a slowed tempo we move through the mixtape, reaching lead single ‘Love Language’, an emotional ballad encouraged to be heard gently. The single, which premiered as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record last night, asks for reciprocity, both through its lyricism and softness, evoking an inherent innocence for requited desires. ‘Love Language’ is accompanied by its official video, which exudes a contradictory modern yet nostalgic energy throughout.
Coming to a close, the mixtape finishes with ‘About Last Night’ and ‘Keep My Love’, countering in complexion. Penultimate track ‘About Last Night’ continues the toe tapping melodies found earlier in the project, and is effortlessly balanced with final ballad ‘Keep My Love’, a heartfelt, transparent, and groundbreaking single showcasing a maturity far beyond Sekou’s young years.
The arrival of In A World We Don’t Belong Pt. 1comes at a pivotal point in Sekou’s career, having taken the time to carefully craft the foundations for greatness. The 21-year-old made the Top 10 shortlist of BBC Radio 1’s Sound of 2024 poll, has completed standout performances on Later… with Jools Holland and 2025’s TIFF Tribute Awards, and also made history as the youngest ever BRIT nominee, with a Rising Star Award nomination. No stranger to connecting with his musical peers and inspirations, Sekou has collaborated with huge names in the game including Justin Bieber, Central Cee, Kevin Abstract, and recently earned praise from Elton John. Most recently, the 21-year-old opened for FLO, which saw him raise the roof at venues across the UK and Europe including London’s O2 Brixton Academy with a performance described as “perfect” by CLASHMagazine.
In A World We Don’t Belong Pt. 1 builds upon Sekou’s foundations of greatness and solidifies his place as an essential emerging voice in British music, as he steadily builds a distinct identity with every project.

Today, history-making multiplatinum Australian alt-rock and punk / pop band 5 Seconds of Summer have released their sixth full-length studio album EVERYONE’S A STAR! available everywhere now via Republic Records. Alongside today’s release, the band releases an official music video for stand out single “Telephone Busy,” directed by acclaimed director Frank Borin (Harry Styles, Zayn Malik).
5 Seconds of Summer, made up of Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood, and Ashton Irwin, have grown from local high school friends into one of the most successful bands of the 21st century. Over the past fourteen years, the group has sold more than 18 million albums, moved six million tickets worldwide, generated over 10 billion streams, and earned three Billboard 200 #1 debuts, while collecting major accolades at the ARIA Awards, MTV EMAs, and MTV VMAs.
Recorded across 2024 and 2025 between Los Angeles and Nashville, EVERYONE’S A STAR! finds the band confidently stepping into a new era. Working with acclaimed producers and collaborators Jason Evigan (Maroon 5, Benson Boone, Papa Roach, Rüfüs Du Sol), Julian Bunetta and John Ryan (Sabrina Carpenter, Teddy Swims), the band’s new era is a reinvention without losing what’s made them one of the most loved bands of the last decade.
“We built this record from a really genuine place. We weren’t chasing a sound or a trend, we were chasing what felt exciting to us. Every track feels alive in a way that reminds us of why we started making music in the first place. EVERYONE’S A STAR! is the most ‘us’ we’ve ever sounded, and we’re so proud to share it with everyone who’s been part of this journey.” – 5 Seconds of Summer
Earlier this month, the band announced their ‘EVERYONE’S A STAR!’ world tour kicking off in March with a European and UK leg running through May, followed by U.S. dates from May to August including shows at New York City’s famed venue Madison Square Garden and Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, with a second show at MSG added due to high demand. The tour will conclude in the band’s home country of Australia next fall. See here for all tour dates and on-sale information.
Alongside the tour announcement, the band released the high-energy single “Telephone Busy,” following the fan-favorite track “Boyband,” an ode to their fans and a playful nod to the label they’ve carried throughout their careers. Both singles followed the powerful lead track “NOT OK,” which was accompanied by an official music video directed by Hannah Lux Davis (Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, Avril Lavigne) – watch here!
To launch the new era, 5 Seconds of Summer surprised fans in Los Angeles with a pop-up performance that shut down Sunset Boulevard. Announced only hours before showtime, thousands of fans filled the streets to experience the beginning of the band’s next chapter. During the event, the band performed hits like “Youngblood,” “She Looks So Perfect,” and “Teeth,” alongside new songs from EVERYONE’S A STAR! including “NOT OK,” “Boyband,” “Telephone Busy,” “No.1 Obsession,” and the album’s explosive title track, “Everyone’s A Star!”

Grammy-nominated R&B powerhouse Summer Walker has officially released her highly anticipated third studio album, Finally Over It, available on all platforms now. Out now via LVRN/Interscope Records, the album marks the final chapter of the trilogy that began with 2019’s landmark Over It and continued with 2021’s chart-topping Still Over It. The release arrives during a milestone moment in her career, as “Heart Of A Woman” secures two Grammy nominations for Best R&B Performance and Best R&B Song.
Arguably Summer’s most liberated, self-possessed era yet, this release showcases her evolution as both a woman and an artist. It follows weeks of viral momentum sparked by Summer’s inventive rollout, including a 90s-inspired hotline commercial, blurred digital covers across DSPs, and a playful lie detector test confirming fan-theory-fueled features. She also launched the Finally Over It escape room in Atlanta and sent a Finally Over It dump truck on tour around the city to collect fans’ old belongings from ex-boyfriends. Earlier this week, Walker announced the album’s collaborators with a wedding reception–themed seating chart and video, unveiling the producers and artists featured, including Chris Brown, Latto, Mariah the Scientist, Bryson Tiller, Teddy Swims, GloRilla, Sexyy Red, Brent Faiyaz, 21 Savage, Anderson.Paak, The Dream, Jeremih, Troy Taylor, Bryan-Michael Cox, Nineteen85, Ant Clemons, Jean Baptiste, and more.
The album, structured as a dual-disc experience, is presented in two parts. For Better and For Worse charts the highs, lows, contradictions, and lessons of love, offering Summer’s most unapologetic and unfiltered storytelling yet. Split into two emotional worlds, the project delivers a raw look at modern dating: protect your peace or trade love for stability. For Better leans into reflection and self-worth, while For Worse imagines a life where luxury can replace intimacy. Across 18 tracks, Summer weighs her options and closes one of R&B’s most compelling trilogies with her boldest statement yet.
Alongside the album release, Summer also released the official video for “FMT” directed by Child. Set in a deserted, almost spiritual landscape, the visual opens with Summer sitting in a bath surrounded by women as an older woman speaks over her, grounding the moment in ancestry and release: “This water remembers your first cry, your first breath, and it knows the weight of my arms when they first held you, and now it learns to let you go.” Watch HERE.
Ahead of the release, Summer opened up on Instagram about the emotional clarity behind the project, sharing,“I came out of my funk. I’m gonna live life to the fullest and get everything I deserve. It’s so freeing, and I can finally take the baggage off and just be happy.”
The album arrives as Summer continues one of the strongest runs of her career. She delivered a standout set at Wireless Festival in London, earned a BET Her Award this summer, and joined Chris Brown alongside Bryson Tiller on their sold-out stadium tour. Her features on Cardi B’s No. 1 album, Am I The Drama?“Dead” and “Shower Tears” became Hot 100 highlights, reaffirming her place as one of R&B’s defining voices. With Finally Over It, Summer Walker closes a cultural trilogy that reshaped contemporary R&B, transforming heartbreak into art, evolution into expression, and healing into power.

Disc 1: For Better 1. Scars 2. Robbed You (feat. Mariah the Scientist) 3. No 4. Go Girl (feat. Latto and Doja Cat) 5. Baby (feat. Chris Brown) 6. 1-800 Heartbreak (feat. Anderson .Paak) 7. Heart Of A Woman 8. Situationship 9. Give Me A Reason (feat. Bryson Tiller)

Global superstar Lewis Capaldi today releases his brand new EP Survive – and what comes with it is one of his most raw and personal songs to date – the simply heartbreaking ‘The Day That I Die’.
Arriving hot on the heels of his critically acclaimed return to touring after nearly two years away, ‘The Day That I Die’ quickly became a standout moment of the set, moving fans, and Lewis himself, to tears. Written about a time when, in his own words onstage, “I didn’t think I would be here anymore,” the song captures Capaldi at his most vulnerable.
“On the day that I die, tell my mother I was smiling ‘cause I know that she’ll be crying,” he sings, in a gut-wrenching depiction. Raw, cathartic, and unflinchingly honest, ‘The Day That I Die’ stands tall among Capaldi’s catalogue of emotional anthems, once again showcasing his extraordinary gift for finding truth and beauty in life’s most painful moments.
The new single comes hot on the heels of his standout BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge performance and an iconic sofa and performance appearance on The Graham Norton Show alongside Taylor Swift, where he once again charmed audiences with his trademark wit & heartbreaking songwriting.
After blazing through his recent 200,000-ticket UK arena tour, in partnership with Android, Lewis will take on his biggest ever UK & Irish headline shows next summer, with more added due to phenomenal demand. Twelve huge outdoor headline shows will include two at London’s 65,000 capacity American Express presents BST Hyde Park on July 11th & 12th. Full dates below & tickets HERE. It doesn’t end there either, as Lewis will also return to the festival stage and is set to headline Isle Of Wight, Latitude, and return home to Glasgow to headline this year’s TRNSMT.
He’s also been missed Stateside and will return for an April/May North American headline tour which has seen numerous dates sell out already, with over 150,00 tickets already gone. The tour will include sold out performances at iconic venues including New York City’s Madison Square Garden, two nights at Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as a night at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl, among others. See full dates here.
Lewis’s return has already seen him top the charts, bagging a monumental sixth number 1 single with his comeback track ‘Survive’, to become the fastest selling single of 2025 and that success has also seen his biggest ever opening week sales for a single, surpassing both Sabrina Carpenter & Lady Gaga for this year’s biggest opening week singles, and he now joins esteemed company with the likes of Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Drake, Lady Gaga & Queen to achieve six UK number 1 singles, beating David Bowie, Katy Perry, The Police & more, as well as 10 Top 10 UK singles. He also turned in special US performances of the track on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon & Good Morning America.
A headliner-sized Pyramid Stage crowd embraced the emotion of Lewis’s return – one of the cultural moments of the year – for a powerful, hit-laden half-hour Glastonbury set with his soaring vocals leading the crowd through classics, as well as a first live showing for ‘Survive’, and a unifying performance of ‘Someone You Loved’.
Prior to his comeback Lewis played a run of Scottish warm up shows in May that saw him return to the stage as a guest of mental health charity CALM, in celebration of Mental Health Awareness Week. With no pressure, and no level of expectation, the shows allowed Capaldi the space to gauge his comfort and emotional response before returning to the spotlight – a move which ended up proving nothing short of a triumph.
Lewis’ last release, the hit-stacked record Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, scored him his second UK number 1 album, creating another three heartbreaking UK number 1 singles, ‘Pointless’, ‘Wish You The Best’ and the Platinum-certified ‘Forget Me’, working with hitmakers including Max Martin (Taylor Swift, The Weeknd), Malay (Lorde, Frank Ocean), and longtime collaborator Phil Plested (James Bay, Bastille). The album also gained widespread critical acclaim from the likes of The Guardian, New York Times, NME, Rolling Stone, GQ, Stereogum & many more. It also topped airplay charts, smashing an impressive 95,000 units, outselling the rest of that week’s Top 10 combined, as well as outselling first week sales of his own monumental debut album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent.
April 2023 saw the global Netflix release of Lewis’ compelling, raw and honest feature-length, GRAMMY®-nominated music documentary ‘Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now’ – available to watch on the platform now. The documentary shot straight to the top of the Netflix chart, making it the most watched film on the platform since its release.
Lewis’ subsequent success stems back to 2019’s multimillion selling debut Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, which propelled Capaldi from bedroom musician to superstar. Few had seen a debut release quite like it, becoming the biggest selling UK album of both 2019 & 2020, spawning two UK number 1 singles, bagging a few BRITs and a GRAMMY® nomination, with one of those number 1’s becoming a smash hit on both sides of the globe in ‘Someone You Loved’, which as well as recently going 10x Platinum, is also the UK’s most streamed song of all time & the world’s fourth highest ever streamed song.
After weathering the kind of storm that few can prepare for, Lewis Capaldi’s return has brought a renewed sense of purpose, proving that even in the darkest moments, there’s still strength in showing up. As he continues to mark a new era, Lewis has returned even stronger, heart wide open, and ready to step out again.
