Joyner Lucas has released the fourth preview of the upcoming deluxe edition of ADHD 2. “GTA 6” is out now alongside a cinematic music video. It follows singles “Monsters,” “White Noise” and “Tear Me Down.” ADHD 2 (Reloaded), which features eight new songs, is slated to drop on April 10.

B5 is back with a new single. “ETA” is about the thrill, anticipation and desire to be reunited that comes after waiting for a special someone. It arrives shortly after the group joined the lineup for The Millennium Tour Presents: Boys 4 Life Tour.

Following her guest appearance on Baby Keem’s “Good Flirts,” which also features Kendrick Lamar, Momo Boyd has released a new single titled “Strong.” According to a press release, “the track examines the emotional imbalance within an on-and-off relationship, the quiet push and pull where one person feels more deeply than the other.”

It’s a “Motion Party” in BossMan Dlow’s latest music video. The video captures partygoers as they let loose, flex their dancing skills and wait for ice cream at a block party. The song arrives with another track, titled “Let’s Go Get ‘Em.“

Alex Isley, who spent most of her childhood in LA, puts on for the West Coast on her new song, “Westside.” “Play this reeeeal loud in the core (LA accent),” she advises fans on Instagram. Her album, When the City Sleeps, arrives on March 20.

Other releases:

YG, “State of Emergency“

Reason ft. Isaiah Jaay, “Doin Too Much“

Jacquees ft. Tink, “Physical“

Tee Grizzley ft. Hurricane Wisdom, “Hard Times“

BNYX, Kid Cudi, Röyksopp, Marlon Hoffstadt, “EVERYWHERE I GO (REMIND ME)” [Marlon Hoffstadt Remix]

The final preview track from Luke Combs’ The Way I Am album is more than just another song in his catalog, it’s a souvenir of his time Down Under with Cody Johnson.

“We were on tour in Australia with Cody Johnson and had planned to get together while we were there,” Luke recalls. “I had this cowboy idea for a song, and ironically, he’d started writing something really similar that same day.”

“We ended up finding time to write and finished ‘I Ain’t No Cowboy’ with his guitar player Jake Mears,” he continues, “and I even got to play it at one of the shows Down Under. The fans really seemed to love it, so I’m excited they get to hear it a week before the full album comes out.”

Luke’s 22-track sixth album arrives March 20, featuring a collaboration with Alison Krauss, as well as the previously released tracks “Be By You,” “Sleepless in a Hotel Room,” “My Kinda Saturday Night,” “Days Like These,” “15 Minutes,” “Giving Her Away” and “Back in the Saddle.”

Luke kicks off his My Kinda Saturday Night Tour March 21 at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium.

Lykke Li has premiered a new song called “Knife in the Heart,” a track off her upcoming album, The Afterparty.

“This is my brutalist nursery rhyme anthem — the emo girl in me, fully unleashed,” Li says in a statement. “I had my son and his friend sing the choruses because the juxtaposition of their voices against the EBow just created such a powerful sonic landscape, somewhere I’ve never really been before. A world totally collapsing in front of us and all we really have left is our humanity.”

She continues, “My dream is to hear a whole football stadium chanting: ‘This Life This Life is a Knife in the Heart.’ To me, a pretty accurate description of what it feels like to be alive right now.”

You can watch the “Knife in the Heart” lyric video on YouTube.

The Afterparty, the follow-up to 2022’s EYEYE, is due out May 8. It also includes the single “Lucky Again.”

Li will be performing at Coachella in April.

The guitar Kurt Cobain played in Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” video has broken the record for the most expensive Cobain guitar sold at auction.

The left-handed ’60s Fender Mustang sold for $6.907 million at a Christie’s auction on Thursday, beating its estimate of between $2.5 million and $5 million. The guitar was part of the collection of late Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay, who purchased it for around $4.5 million in 2022.

This latest sale eclipses the $6 million Cobain’s 1959 Martin D-18E, which he famously played during Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged performance, went for in a 2020 auction.

At the time, the Unplugged guitar set the record for the most expensive guitar ever sold at auction. Not only was that mark beaten by the “Teen Spirit” guitar, it was surpassed twice more in the very same Christie’s sale. Jerry Garcia’s custom-built “Tiger” guitar sold for $11.56 million, while David Gilmour’s famed “Black Strat” sold for $14.55 million. The Pink Floyd icon’s guitar now officially holds the record for the most expensive guitar ever sold at auction.

Jack Harlow pivots from rapping to singing on his new album, Monica. In an interview with The New York Times‘ Popcast, he said he made the shift because he was unhappy with the rap songs he had initially recorded for the project — and with the braggadocio that typically defines the genre.

“I was getting to the point where I was dreading going to the studio,” he said. “And I thought about, what do I actually want to do? What would intrigue me? It just struck me that I would want to do something a little more egoless.”

Jack said that as he gets older, he finds it harder to be boastful in his music, though he knows it’s “a pillar of rap.”

Inspired by Stevie Wonder’s timeless music — which he described as “infused with love” — Jack said he aimed to make music that feels closer to the person he wants to be: a “little less self-indulgent.”

He also leaned toward the softer, more melodic music he enjoys listening to.

Unlike some of his white counterparts who pivoted from rap to country, Jack took the R&B route on Monica and “got Blacker,” a choice that he said made the creative process even more appealing.

“I love Black music. I love the sound of Black music. And, of course, I’m hyper-aware of the politics of today, that safer landing spot that a lot of my white contemporaries have found,” he said.

He added that he ultimately followed what sounded right to him.

Recorded at New York’s Electric Lady Studios, Monica is now available on streaming platforms and features nods to ’90s R&B, though Jack said he still considers himself a rapper first.

“I just want it to be pleasant,” he said of the album. “I wanted to add something to my discography that could be enjoyed passively.”

Lainey Wilson’s first new music since the Whirlwind era is out now, with a new track she co-wrote called “Can’t Sit Still.”

The new track is seemingly a reflection of everything the CMA and ACM entertainer of the year has going on in her life these days. It arrives the same day that she makes her big-screen debut in Colleen Hoover’s Reminders of Him. 

On Tuesday Lainey’s documentary, Keepin’ Country Cool, premieres at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, ahead of its April 22 debut on Netflix.  

Just as Lainey seems to be closing the Whirlwind chapter of her music, she did the same with her concerts, wrapping the Australian and New Zealand leg of the Whirlwind World Tour in February. Next up, she plays RodeoHouston on Thursday.
