Tommy Richman And Brent Faiyaz Reunite On ‘Bother Me’ From Richman’s New EP, ‘Worlds Apart*’
Tommy Richman is his own worst enemy in "Bother Me," the breakout track from his new EP, Worlds Apart*, which dropped today via ISO Supremacy and PULSE Records. Richman reunites with ISO head honcho Brent Faiyaz in the song, as the two kings of toxic R&B ponder the consequences of their own noncommital to relationships that felt bothersome at the moment, but might have been worth considering in hindsight. "I was in my head last week / And I want you to bother me / There’s not another me / And that’s been bothering me," Richman croons on the chorus.…
Sailorr Announces The Deluxe Edition Of ‘From Florida’s Finest’ With ‘Locked In’
R&B breakout Sailorr made waves this spring with the release of her debut album, From Florida's Finest and its accompanying tour. With the new year on the horizon, and a pair of splashy features (with Jordan Ward and Summer Walker) just in the rearview, Sailorr prepares to close out her breakout year with the deluxe edition of From Florida's Finest, the cheekily titled From Florida’s Finest Delu/xxx [For My Delusional Ex]. The reissued project is set for release on December 5. It will add four new tracks and one feature, from rising rapper Eem Triplin. Ahead of the release of…
Tems’ Surprise EP ‘Love Is A Kingdom’ Is A Great Consolation After Her Camp Flog Gnaw Set Was Canceled
Tems fans in Los Angeles were disappointed to learn the Nigerian singer would not be able to perform at Camp Flog Gnaw this weekend, after the festival was postponed due to dangerous weather. However, all of her fans got a nice consolation prize this week in the form of a new EP, Love Is A Kingdom. Clocking in at seven tracks, Love Is A Kingdom is described in its press release as an "exploration of love, power, and spiritual clarity." The focus track is "Big Daddy," an upbeat, questioning track in which she braces a flaky lover. She calls him…
Uproxx’s Joypocalypse Gives The White Stripes Props For Reinvigorating Garage Rock
The White Stripes received one of music's highest honors earlier this month when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Jack White spoke solo at the ceremony, as since their break-up in the 2010s, the duo's other half, Meg White, has stayed out of the spotlight. In their heyday, though, the two-piece were the rock band to beat. As Uproxx's Joypocalypse explains in a new video, The White Stripes were at the forefront of the 2000s garage rock revival. https://www.instagram.com/p/DRVFJupD7Hp/ She says: "The 2000s garage rock revival was a return to stripped-down rock music. It was…
Uproxx’s Baylee Lefton Delivers A Chill Hip-Hop Drop With Her Latest Playlist
Keeping up with music news and resources like Spotify's giant and regularly updated New Music Friday playlist are great ways to keep your listening habits from getting stale. Sometimes, though, you need a deeper dive. That's where Uproxx's Baylee Lefton comes in as she routinely offers quick-hit lists of songs you need to add into your rotation this week. She came through with a new drop today (November 21), and the vibe is chill hip-hop. https://www.instagram.com/p/DRU-X8xAYfE/ The mix kicks off with Mustard and Nipsey Hussle's "Perfect Ten," the title track from Mustard's 2019 album. The project dropped just months after…
Rico Nasty Cuts Loose In Her Raucous ‘Pepper’ Video
Rico Nasty is only about five months removed from the release of her third album, Lethal, but it looks like there's no rest for the nasty. Rico is already back with new music, in the form of her new single, "Pepper." Reuniting with Kenny Beats -- who is now going by his government name, Kenneth Blume -- Rico gets all the way back in her lyrical bag, spitting a succession of spicy punchlines to knock some sense back into those who may have thought her switch to the rock-focused label Fueled by Ramen would dull her rap edge. "Pop out rockin' that…
Fred Again.. Links With Sammy Virji And Winny On ‘Winny,’ Another New ‘USB’ Song
It's now been two months since Fred Again.. announced his new batch of USB songs. Given that he promised this rollout would extend over the course of ten weeks, we're approaching the end. As we hit the final stretch, this week's new song is "Winny," in collaboration with Sammy Virji and Winny. In a recent post, Fred addressed how his output during this stretch has often consisted of more than the promised one song per week, writing, "i know we’re on more than 1 song a week right now and i absolutely dont care. in fact i do care, very…
The Best Nas Features Of 2025, From Clipse To Slick Rick
Don’t hit “submit” on your Best Hip-Hop Albums of the Year list just yet. Nas’ 18th studio release -- produced entirely by fellow legend, DJ Premier -- is set to drop December 12, 2025. It’s an electrifying way to close the year, but let’s not pretend Mr. Jones hasn’t been low-key active throughout the past 11 months. This year alone, Nas shined alongside The Clipse on their game-changer, Let God Sort ‘Em Out, and flexed his executive muscle as co-founder of Mass Appeal Records. Not only did he greenlight the Legend Has It... campaign—an initiative empowering rap icons like Slick…
De La Soul ‘Run It Back!!’ With Nas On Their New Album ‘Cabin In The Sky’
De La Soul returns, bruised but no worse for the wear, with their first album in nearly a decade, Cabin In The Sky. The pioneering Long Island rap trio's eighth and last album And the Anonymous Nobody... came out in 2016; since then, the group has experienced both triumphs and loss. After a decades-long struggle to regain control of the publishing rights to their beloved catalog, De La was able to secure their ownership and bring their groundbreaking discography to streaming in March 2023. However, just one month before that, founding member Trugoy The Dove died at age 54. However,…
Tate McRae Delivers A Lo-Fi ‘Nobody’s Girl’ Video Alongside The Deluxe Edition Of ‘So Close To What’
2025 has been a milestone year for Tate McRae. In February, she released her third album, So Close To What, which became her first to top the Billboard 200 chart. "Tit For Tat" was also a hit, matching her previous Hot 100 high at No. 3. Now, there's a deluxe edition of the album that's out today (November 21). McRae also shared a video for "Nobody's Girl." The visual is directed Thibaut Grevet and features choreography by French dance collective (LA)HORDE. In a recent Time interview, McRae spoke about seeing headlines about her break-up with The Kid Laroi (the suspected…
Skrillex Just Dropped A Surprise New EP Featuring Caroline Polachek And More
Skrillex made his mark earlier this year with the release of his latest album, F*ck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!!. That was a surprise release, and now he has another unexpected drop: Today (November 21), he shared a five-song EP, Hit Me Where It Hurts X. The project's title track, which was shared a few days ago, is based on "Hit Me Where It Hurts" from Caroline Polachek's 2019 album Pang, and aside from Polachek, it also features 100 Gecs' Dylan Brady. Meanwhile, Polachek will also appear on Cerulean, the new album Danny L Harle…
Indiecast Looks Ahead To Year-End List Season
Steven and Ian begin with a quick rundown of Thanksgiving fixins, and ultimately disagree on the utility of turkey. After that, they briefly assess the fantasy albums draft, which already seems like a wrap. Then they talk about gearing up to make their year-end albums lists, after which they make some educated guesses about what they think critics are going to rate highly this year. In the "yay or nay" segment, they discuss the new comeback album by Tobias Jesso Jr. In Recommendation Corner, Ian talks about the emo band Ben Quad and Steven discusses the late singer-songwriter Todd Snider,…
Peso Pluma Teams With Tito Double P For The Dramatic ‘Intro’ And A Cinematic Video
Peso Pluma and Tito Double P are regular collaborators at this point (they are cousins, after all) and they've linked up once again on a new one shared today (November 20), "Intro." They went hard for the video, tapping Mexican actress Kate del Castillo to star. In a spoken-word introduction, she talks about duality and the prosperity that comes when opposing forces cooperate. The music itself is equally cinematic and a return to Pluma's música Mexicana roots. In a recent chat with mitú, Tito Double P said of collaborating with artists like Pluma, "When we support one another and create…
Nas And DJ Premier’s Long-Awaited Collab Album Finally Has A Release Date
For the past few months, Mass Appeal Records has been releasing a series of albums from New York rap greats under its Legend Has It... banner, including projects from Big L, De La Soul, Ghostface Killah, Mobb Deep, Raekwon, and Slick Rick. There's even been a comic book from Marvel Comics (it's...fun). However, the crown jewel of this initiative was the long-awaited collaboration album from Nas and DJ Premier, which the two have reportedly been working on for the better part of the past twenty years. Now, we have a release date, at long last. Playing a show Wednesday night…
Jessie Murph Unveils The Emotional And Risqué ‘Sex Hysteria The End’ Short Film
Jessie Murph recently dropped the deluxe edition of her album Sex Hysteria, and press materials noted the expanded project would be accompanied by a short film that "will serve as an extension of the creative world Jessie has built around Sex Hysteria and her '1965' music video." At last, the visual has arrived. Today (November 20), Murph released Sex Hysteria The End (watch the age-restricted video here; there's nudity). The ten-minute film focuses on the parallel narratives of Jessie and a young fan named Charlotte and is scored by the eight new songs from the deluxe album. A press release…
The Kid Laroi Announces ‘Before I Forget,’ A New Album He Made After Scrapping A Completed Project
Earlier this month, The Kid Laroi performed the halftime show at an NFL game in Germany. His set included an unreleased song called "A Perfect World," which seemed to hint at some big news to come. That news is here: Today (November 20), Laroi announced a new album, Before I Forget. He also officially shared the song, which has a throwback pop/R&B sound. In an Instagram post announcing the project, Laroi wrote: "I made this album in the last 4 months. I had a whole other album that was completed but I scrapped it. started again from scratch with the…

Charli XCX’s Movie ‘The Moment’ Gets A Release Date And A Reality-Blurring Teaser Trailer
Charli XCX recently said that she didn't want to make a Brat tour documentary. Now, though, we have a new teaser trailer for her film The Moment and it does sort of look like one. (Be aware that the video has a lot of flashing lights.) The teaser includes plenty of real-world footage, of moments like Charli performing on stage and sitting down for an interview on The Late Show. But, there are scripted bits as well, positioning the movie as blurring the line between reality and fiction. The movie's logline reads, "A rising pop star navigates the complexities of…
BigXthaPlug And Luke Combs Deliver A Fiery Performance Of ‘Pray Hard’ At The 2025 CMA Awards
The performers for the 2025 CMA Awards were announced earlier this month and one of the most exciting inclusions was BigXthaPlug and Luke Combs, performing their collaboration "Pray Hard." Well, the show went down last night (November 19) at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena (it's streaming on Hulu now), and so did their big performance (here's a clip). The two rapped and sang in front of a fiery backdrop, with BigXthaPlug's bars having the country stars in the audience bobbing their heads. In a recent interview with will.i.am for Uproxx's Visionaries series, BigXthaPlug spoke about getting into country music, saying: "When I…
Liam Gallagher Admits His Hints At More Oasis Shows In 2026 Were Premature
No Oasis tour dates have been announced for 2026, but Liam Gallagher has indicated on multiple occasions that this will happen. Now, though, he's less committal about that. Amid fan discussions on X of Oasis' tour nearing its end, one fan asked, "liam just reply with one word is there gonna be a 2026 tour." Gallagher responded simply, "NO." Somebody else wrote, "ARE YOU F*CKING SERIOUS" and Gallagher replied, "YES IM F*CKING SERIOUS." A different user brought up Gallagher saying "see you next year" and he tweeted in response: "You will see me next year and the year after and…
Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Alice In Wonderland’ Movie Is Only ‘Based Loosely’ On The Original Story
It was announced last week that Sabrina Carpenter is producing and starring in a movie musical based on Alice In Wonderland. Marc Platt, a producer of the recent Wicked movies, is on board here, while Lorene Scafaria is writing and directing. Now, thanks to Platt, we know a little more about the project. In an interview with Variety's Marc Malkin, Platt said: "It's an idea that Sabrina's had, and so we're just in the beginning stages. But it's a contemporary story with an allegory to and based loosely on Alice In Wonderland. [...] We sat down and we talked about…
Lil Baby Has Some ‘Real Sh*t’ To Discuss In His Latest ‘WHAM Wednesdays’ Video
Lil Baby has been releasing new tracks every week recently under the auspices of his "WHAM Wednesdays" campaign (named after his January album). Beginning with "All On Me" featuring G Herbo three weeks ago, and continuing with "Plenty" featuring YTB Fatt and YFN Lucci, "Try To Love," and "Otha Boy," the releases have fulfilled the Atlanta rapper's promise to drop a "Song & Video Every Wednesday For The Rest Of The Year," the tradition continues with "Real Sh*t." Produced by4 3Juice and SouliMadeIt, "Real Sh*t" is a cascading stream of consciousness freestyle from Baby, all in one verse, with no…
Labrinth Survives An ‘Implosion,’ In The Latest Single From His Upcoming Album, ‘Cosmic Opera: Act 1’
Labrinth's fourth studio album, Cosmic Opera: Act I, arrives January 30 via Columbia Records, and today, the production powerhouse shares the latest single, "Implosion." Like its predecessors, "S.W.M.F." and "Orchestra," "Implosion" finds Labrinth blending symphonic sensibilities with electronic impulses for a boisterous, bold blend of both spacey trap and dubstep with the operatic foundations implied by the album's title. It isn't like he didn't warn us this was coming; in September, he dropped an eight-song EP titled Prelude, and as we all know, the term refers to a short piece of music that often serves as an introduction to a…
The War On Drugs Are Bringing Back Their ‘Drugcember To Remember’ Holiday Shows After Two Years Away
In 2018, The War On Drugs hosted the first edition of A Drugcember To Remember, a series of benefit shows to help The Fund For The School District Of Philadelphia, a nonprofit that boosts Philly public schools.

Atmosphere Tag-Teams A Classic Rap ‘Sound Check’ Challenge With MF DOOM, Clipse, JID, And More
You would think it would be much harder to agree on a "lifetime anthem" as a group, but nope -- Earthgang, The LOX, and now, Atmosphere, our latest Sound Check guests, all claim it's pretty easy. "Easier than I thought it'd be," Slug tells our host, Jeremy Hecht. Of course, that doesn't make things any easier for Jeremy himself, who has to figure out what that song might be with our production team trying to trick him. To help him hash things out this time around, Jeremy comes armed with seven rounds of classic tracks to pair off, including Kool…
