Which Is Your Favorite New Music Release The Week? Vote!
From The Weeknd releasing the lead single to his next album to Charli XCX and Troye Sivan initiating Brat autumn with a fresh remix, this week is full of artists stepping into new eras.
Starting with the Canadian superstar, new song “Dancing in the Flames” marks the lead single off his upcoming album Hurry Up Tomorrow. When that LP drops, The Weeknd will finally have completed the album trilogy he started in 2020 with After Hours and continued with 2022’s Dawn FM. The albums reached Nos. 1 and 2 on the Billboard 200, respectively — there’s a reason the “Blinding Lights” musician is Billboard‘s No. 18 greatest pop star of the 21st century.

Next up, the duo behind the upcoming Sweat Tour unleashed their highly anticipated collaboration on a remix of “Talk Talk,” which follows a summer of Charli’s Brat remixes with Lorde, Billie Eilish and more. The flirty anthem also precedes the British alt-pop star’s recently announced follow-up album Brat and It’s Completely Different but Also Still Brat, which arrives Oct. 11.
Plus, both Katy Perry and Shawn Mendes premiered new singles from their respective fast-approaching albums, 143 and Shawn. The former unveiled “I’m His, He’s Mine” featuring Doechii while the latter dropped “Nobody Knows,” with both tracks making their live debuts on the MTV Video Music Awards stage Wednesday (Sept. 11), two days prior to their releases.
Also new this week are tracks from Playboi Carti, Tate McRae and FKA Twigs, plus a 14-track album from Miranda Lambert. There’s a lot to choose from, but Billboard wants to know your favorite fresh release — so cast your vote below.
