\n\tThis week, Doja Cat travels in time, Young Thug makes up for lost time and Mariah Carey remains timeless. Check out all of this week\u2019s picks below:<\/p>\n
\n\tDoja Cat, Vie<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tIf you loved the pop fantasia at the heart of Planet Her<\/em> more than the hard-charging rhymes of Scarlet<\/em>, Vie<\/em>, Doja Cat\u2019s fifth studio album, will sound like an exciting return to form: translating her aesthetic to a synth-heavy 1980s pastiche and tapping Jack Antonoff to help render her vision, Doja sounds in top form with these widescreen hooks, with \u201cCards,\u201d \u201cGorgeous\u201d and \u201cAAAHH MEN!\u201d all begging to be played at top volume.<\/p>\n\n\tYoung Thug, UY SCUTI<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tThe opening seconds of Young Thug\u2019s long-awaited album UY SCUTI<\/em>\u00a0feature the voice of the prosecutor in his much-publicized RICO trial, describing the rapper as too dangerous to let out of federal custody; after addressing the elephant in the room, Thugger proceeds to spend 20 songs reasserting his place at the top of mainstream hip-hop after a prolonged absence, with Future, Cardi B, 21 Savage and Lil Baby among the many guest stars welcoming him home.<\/p>\n\n\tTate McRae, \u201cTit for Tat\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tCapping off a breakthrough year that\u2019s included her first No. 1 album, an arena headlining tour and a soundtrack hit with \u201cJust Keep Watching,\u201d Tate McRae stays prolific on \u201cTit for Tat,\u201d an indignant kiss-off to an ex that will certainly keep the rumor mill active following the pop star\u2019s breakup with The Kid LAROI \u2014 but also stands on its own as another simmering rhythmic pop track.<\/p>\n
\n\tMariah Carey, Here For It All<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tWith nothing left to prove decades into a legendary pop career, Mariah Carey remains too ambitious to rest on her laurels: Here For It All<\/em>, her first new album since 2018\u2019s Caution<\/em>, is more urgent and entertaining than expected as a check-in with modern R&B, as Carey shines alongside guests like Anderson .Paak and Kehlani while also showcasing her continued power on solo cuts \u201cNothing is Impossible\u201d and \u201cMy Love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\tOlivia Dean, The Art of Loving<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tLondon singer-songwriter Olivia Dean has recently streaked into the Hot 100\u2019s top 40 with breakout hit \u201cMan I Need,\u201d which acts as a handy preview of the sumptuous soul-pop featured on her second album, The Art of Loving<\/em>: Dean makes complex arrangements effortless with her delicate tone, and the breezy \u201cSo Easy (To Fall in Love)\u201d \u2014 which was co-written by studio pros Amy Allen, John Ryan and Max Wolfgang \u2014 sounds like a natural next hit.<\/p>\n\n\tRauw Alejandro, Cosa Nuestra: Cap\u00edtulo 0<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\tAn official prequel to Rauw Alejandro\u2019s Cosa Nuestra<\/em>, which is currently nominated for album of the year at the Latin Grammys, Cap\u00edtulo 0<\/em> continues the Puerto Rican superstar\u2019s exploration of Caribbean music, often with a pulse-pounding tempo \u2014 this is an origin story that demands movement, and Alejandro sounds more comfortable than ever in the spotlight.<\/p>\n\n\t5 Seconds of Summer, \u201cNOT OK\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tWhat a treat to have 5 Seconds of Summer, one of the most consistently enjoyable pop-rock recording artists of the past decade, not only reunite with new music but still pushing their sound into new territory: \u201cNOT OK,\u201d a nervy and jangly alternative anthem, not only whets our appetite for more 5SOS material, but this one sounds primed to become a tambourine-shaking live staple.<\/p>\n
\n\tEditor\u2019s Pick: Geese, Getting Killed<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tArriving with a mountain of hype (and following frontman Cameron Winter\u2019s wonderfully weird solo debut Heavy Metal last year), Geese\u2019s third album exceeds expectations: Getting Killed<\/em> finds the Brooklyn band morphing its style to make room for explosive noise and idiosyncratic song structures, landing on a sound that\u2019s akin to Radiohead\u2019s jazzier impulses mashed with Tom Waits\u2019 shambolic poetry. The result: say hello to your new indie cult heroes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.billboard.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Billboard\u2019s Friday Music Guide serves as a handy guide to this Friday\u2019s most essential releases \u2014 the key music that everyone will be talking about today, and that will be dominating playlists this weekend and beyond.\u00a0 Explore See latest videos, charts and news This week, Doja Cat travels in time, Young Thug makes up for […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1974660,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[25179],"tags":[258007,251271,309165],"class_list":["post-2052245","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","tag-first-stream","tag-friday-music-guide","tag-genre-pop"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Doja-Cat-Laufey-Sombr-Deftones-More.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2052245","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2052245"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2052245\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1974660"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2052245"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2052245"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2052245"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
