We didn’t get a chance to hear Bad Bunny’s new album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Mañana, prior to taping this week’s episode. But we did hit some of the other records that highlight a busy week of new releases.
Australian singer and actor Troye Sivan put out one of this year’s late-breaking Song Of The Summer contenders with “Rush,” a lean, sex-forward, dance-floor-friendly banger. That song kicks off Sivan’s new album, Something to Give Each Other, which packs 10 hedonistic bops into just 33 minutes — all while offering surprising sonic variations along the way.
We’ve also got new albums from singer-songwriter and poet Jamila Woods, whose new Water Made Us reflects on the patterns that have formed and challenged past relationships, and L’Rain, the experimental project of composer and multi-instrumentalist Taja Cheek. L’Rain’s new album is titled I Killed Your Dog.
Join Stephen Thompson, Hazel Cills and friend of the program LaTesha Harris for this episode of New Music Friday.
