There’s something about the new music that drops just as vacation season shifts into high gear. That stretch of summer when everyone is hitting the road or booking a flight or simply “taking a day.” There’s no better time to curate a soundtrack.
Lizzo drops her new mixtape, My Face Hurts From Smiling. Meanwhile, as Teyana Taylor delivers the stellar “Bed Of Roses,” her newest single. And Lupe Fiasco cuts through with a new remix of his 2024 single, “Samurai.”
Saweetie teams up with Santa Fe Klan for “Locos;” and we get the latest from Rick Ross, as Rozay drops the heater “For The Money.” There’s even some love this week for the country lovers, as Nelly proclaims his love for Ashanti, as BigXthaPlug reteams with Shaboozey.
Each week, Okayplayer will deliver a roundup of all the latest new heat from some of our favorite artists. Check out the latest offerings below.
