After a handful of musical experiments, it\u2019s refreshing to hear Tiller leaning into what comes most naturally to him as an artist. <\/p>\n<h3>TINASHE &#8211; \u201cTOO EASY\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>She teased new songs were coming on her social media for days before she released her first new music in two years. Kimj and Zack Sekoff co-produce the song.

She wastes no time getting to the goods on this bombastic freestyle, immediately flying into attack mode with the kind of \u201cnya-nya\u201d energy that made her a star. <\/p>\n<h3>GLENN LEWIS &#8211; \u201cIMPRESSIONS\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The R&amp;B veteran returns with this groovy midtempo single. Lewis is still one of the better vocalists to emerge during the 2000s, and his new track shows that he\u2019s just at home outside of romantic balladry.<\/p>\n<h3>TIERRA WHACK &#8211; \u201cWAX PAPER\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>She\u2019s got something coming. The Philadelphia-born artist has announced a new mixtape. But before she releases <span class=\"italic m-italic \" data-lab-italic=\"italic\">Whack\u2019s Museum<\/span> on Juneteenth, she&#8217;s just unleashed the first single. <\/p>\n<h3>BOBBY V &#8211; \u201cSHE GOT IT\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The veteran R&amp;B singer is back with this dreamy, piano-led single. It\u2019s the kind of smooth crooning that made Bobby a household name in the 2000s, on a track that sounds like it could become a late night staple. <\/p>\n<h3>SY\u2019RAI &#8211; \u201cLATE NIGHT\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The voice is undeniable and she has the material to match\u2013that\u2019s a potent combination. Her famous family aside, she delivers the goods on this polished and infectious news single. <\/p>\n<h3>BRITTNEY SPENCER &#8211; \u201cSOBER THOUGHTS\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Produced by Jarrad K, it\u2019s a track about that feeling when your guard is down and the truth just comes out. Honest, a little vulnerable, and exactly what you&#8217;d expect from someone who&#8217;s never been afraid to go there.<\/p>\n<h3>DEVOUR \u2013 &#8220;PREVAIL\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Dedicated to the memory of his late brother, Joshua Villalobos. Released in honor of the 28th anniversary of Joshua&#8217;s passing (June 3), the record serves as a deeply personal tribute to his 1998 suicide.<\/p>\n<h3>DAHI FEAT. MOSES SUMNEY AND MEZ &#8211; \u201cFIND ME\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>One of contemporary music\u2019s most influential and transformative producers taps the critically acclaimed art-pop singer Moses Sumney and lyrical mastermind Mez for his scintillating new single. <\/p>\n<h3>STEVE LACY &#8211; \u201cTHE FEELING\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>His third album, the self-produced <span class=\"italic m-italic \" data-lab-italic=\"italic\">Oh Yeah?<\/span>, is forthcoming in July. In the meantime, he\u2019s setting the table and setting the tone with his first single of 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>PITBULL &amp; LIL JON &#8211; \u201cSATALANAAA\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Between the two of them, this duo is responsible for more Spring Break shenanigans and resort parties than almost anybody. The unveil their new collaboration, and you can almost see the Hawaiian shirts and pineapple drinks. <\/p>\n<h3>NIPSEY HUSSLE &amp; BINO RIDEAUX &#8211; \u201cRECKLESS\u201d<\/h3>\n<div data-element-guid=\"a20fc613-7eb4-4096-a47d-f149519438bc\" id=\"markup_1431757\" class=\"markupbox column small-12 large-12 small-abs-12 large-abs-12\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Nipsey Hussle and Bino Rideaux - Reckless (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VnLg9ZGxaF4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Nipsey and Bino joint project is coming very soon, and if it\u2019s anything like this, it should be dope. <\/p>\n<h3>NATANYA &#8211; \u201cCANDYLAND!\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s the kind of futuristic fizzy pop that made the Neptunes and Missy Elliott household names.

SKILLIBENG &#8211; \u201cBAD B*TCH\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>A high-energy, heavy-hitting track perfectly blends ROB49\u2019s gritty southern delivery with Skillibeng\u2019s signature rapid-fire, melodic Jamaican flow to create a club and street anthem.<\/p>\n<h3>TOBE NWIGWE FEAT. LABRINTH &#8211; \u201cALL OR NOTHING\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The pairing that works even better than you might have anticipated. This track is from Tobe&#8217;s forthcoming album, but it showcases some pretty amazing musical chemistry. One can\u2019t help but be excited for what he\u2019s dropping next. <\/p>\n<h3>KXNG CROOKED &#8211; \u201cWEST COAST \u201896\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>A look back at a pivotal year in West Coast hip-hop as seen through his perspective. He bigs up the legendary drops of that year while also making it clear that he could stand with anyone. <\/p>\n<h3>JOSEPH SOLOMON &#8211; \u201cHALF ON THE BLAME\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>A mournful, somber ballad that expertly showcases his gritty, but soulful vocal style. It\u2019s the perfect track that honestly examines where relationships go wrong and how you have to own your role in the heartache. <\/p>\n<h3>BIG FREEDIA &amp; SOPHIE &#8211; \u201cGO DOWN\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>A collab featuring the late producer and Freedia\u2019s larger than life persona.
