the<\/em> romantic.<\/p>\n\n\tBLACKPINK, DEADLINE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tFollowing impressive solo debuts for Lisa (Alter Ego<\/em>), JENNIE (Ruby<\/em>), Ros\u00e9 (Rosie<\/em>) and an EP for Jisoo (Amortage<\/em>), the foursome better known as global sensation BLACKPINK is back with its third mini EP, DEADLINE<\/em>. The five-track project includes the celebratory and energetic return single \u201cJUMP\u201d alongside \u201cGO, \u201cMe and my,\u201d Champion and \u201cFxxxboy.\u201d According to a statement from YG Entertainment, all five tracks were created over extended periods of time while DEADLINE <\/em>as a whole showcases \u201cBLACKPINK at its most radiant.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\tRAYE, \u201cNightingale Lane.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\t\u201cThis is a song about the greatest heartbreak I\u2019ve ever known,\u201d says RAYE, introducing her new single with an inviting intimacy that makes listeners feel like they\u2019re eavesdropping on an open mic night. With \u201cNightingale Lane.\u201d (which recalls the cadence and delivery of the tear-inducing \u201cAnd I Am Telling You I\u2019m Not Going\u201d) RAYE does what she does best and delivers a tale of heart ache with enough wisdom, hope and, of course, vocal power to help transform a painful memory into a performance that somehow leaves listeners uplifted. Fitting, for a single off an album titled This Music May Contain Hope<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\tTowa Bird, \u201cGentleman\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tPop-rocker and guitarist Towa Bird returns with one-off \u201cGentleman,\u201d produced by Patrick Wimberly (MGMT, Blood Orange) and built around a rousing riff. The song balances the playfulness of its lyrics (Sharp shooter\/ A breadwinner\/ I\u2019m toast) with the grungy brashness of its composition, resulting in a track that at just two minutes and 17 seconds begs to be replayed.<\/p>\n
\n\tElmiene, \u201cHonour\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tAhead of Elmiene\u2019s anticipated debut album, out in March, the British singer released a two-pack today including singles \u201cHonour\u201d and \u201cI Want In.\u201d Of his forthcoming album, Songs For Someone<\/em>, the artist \u2014 and Billboard<\/em>\u2018s R&B Rookie for February \u2014 said in a statement: \u201cMaking this album was painful, I felt lonely sometimes, I felt loved sometimes. I felt guilty sometimes and I felt forgiven sometimes but most of all it was an important duty to myself that I needed to fulfill.\u201d On \u201cHonour,\u201d Elmiene tosses a coin with loneliness on one side and love on the other by attempting to stay true to a basic need, but not knowing which side will face up in doing so.<\/p>\n\n\tAng\u00e8le and Justice, \u201cWhat You Want\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\tBelgian pop singer Ang\u00e8le first broke out stateside with her Dua Lipa team-up \u201cFever\u201d and now, she\u2019s paired with iconic French duo Justice for the haunting and heavy \u201cWhat You Want.\u201d Ang\u00e8le\u2019s airy vocals perfectly contrast the harder-edged production, resulting in a track that sucks you into its mysterious world. After meeting backstage at Justice\u2019s show, Ang\u00e8le invited the pair to her studio to hear some demos she had been working on, including \u201cWhat You Want.\u201d As she shared in a statement: \u201cI thought\u00a0Justice\u00a0could bring the electro-club expertise \u2014 and the tension \u2014 that were missing from that first version\u2026They brought a power to the track that the intention and balance had been missing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
