The first week of February has already gone by in a flurry, with several major artists dropping new music to ring in the month. And — like all the snowflakes clinging to much of the continental United States after severe winter weather earlier in the year — no two releases are alike.
In a year that’s already been packed with new music from former One Direction band members — with Harry Styles dropping Billboard Hot 100-topper “Aperture” and Louis Tomlinson sharing new album How Did I Get Here? in January — Zayn Malik entered the fold. On the heels of a surprise announcement that he also has another album in the works (titled Konnakol), the British superstar dropped its lead single, “Die for Me,” on Friday (Feb. 6).
That same day, two other stars unveiled sprawling LPs. Nick Jonas’ Sunday Best arrives with 12 tracks and one collaboration with his Jonas Brothers bandmates/siblings, Joe and Kevin, and J. Cole’s highly anticipated The Fall-Off comes with twice as many songs spread out across two discs. As for new singles, sombr — fresh off a memorable best new artist medley performance at the Grammys on Sunday (Feb. 1) — has shared “Homewrecker,” while Joji is back with a song called “Hotel California” that precedes upcoming album Piss in the Wind.
But which of those releases is your favorite this week? Billboard wants to know.
