New music Friday: RAYE, Niall Horan and more

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Ahead of the March 27 release of her new album, This Music May Contain Hope, RAYE has shared another track. She’s been performing “Click Clack Symphony,” a collaboration with famed movie composer Hans Zimmer, on her current tour, which arrives in the U.S. at the end of March. “The song is about the sounds that high heels make,” says RAYE. “It’s about those times in our life when you need your best friends or your siblings to drag you out of the house and say ‘I know you’re not in the best place right now but we need to get outside.'”

Niall Horan has dropped the title track from his upcoming album Dinner Party, due June 5. Niall describes the album as “a thank you to the past and a hello to the present, covering the big life events and the small, sometimes messy, in-between moments that actually make them up.”

Lizzo starts her new era with a new song and video called “Don’t Make Me Love U,” which she refers to as “THE NEW NATIONAL ANTHEM.” The video, according to a press release, “gives a surreal and visually striking look into a familiar relationship of grappling with your past-self, reflecting and eventually evolving through learning and growth.”

Jelly Roll is out with “Lighter,” a song produced by Canadian songwriter and producer Cirkut that features him singing with Mexican artist Carín León. It’s from the Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Album, and it’s meant to represent all three of the tournament’s host nations.

“A Lot More Free” singer Max McNown is out with a new single, “Standstill (My, My, My).” He says the song is about a person who met the love of their life, which “seemed to freeze this person in time, and ultimately change their trajectory completely.”

Def Leppard jumps on ‘what were you like’ viral trend

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Def Leppard has joined in on the viral “what were you like in the ‘90s” trend, but with a twist.

The trend has celebrities and social media users posting a current video of themselves, and then following it up with photos and video of them in the ’90s, with many of the clips set to the Goo Goo Dolls’ hit “Iris.”

Well, Def Leppard is throwing it back to a different decade, posting a video that starts out with current clips of band members Joe Elliott, Phil Collen, Rick Savage and Rick Allen, and the question, “What were you guys like in the 80s?” The newer videos are followed by several throwback photos of the band in the ’80s, with the clip soundtracked to “Photograph,” their #1 hit from 1983.

They captioned the post, “All I’ve got is a photograph #defleppard #80s.”

It’s important to note that guitarist Vivian Campbell isn’t featured in the clip, because he didn’t join Def Leppard until 1992.

Def Leppard recently wrapped a Las Vegas residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. They are set to launch a tour of India on Wednesday, with a European tour to follow. A complete list of dates can be found at DefLeppard.com.

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

(NEW YORK) — Nearly 90,000 bottles of children’s ibuprofen are being voluntarily recalled due to the potential presence of a foreign substance.

According to a notice from the Food and Drug Administration, Taro Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc. received complaints from customers who reported “a gel-like mass and black particles” in the drug products.

Four-ounce (120 ml) bottles of Children’s Ibuprofen Oral Suspension are impacted by the recall. The FDA said the children’s medications, intended for pain relief from the common cold, flu, sore throat, headache and toothache and a fever reducer, were manufactured in India for Taro Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc.

Recalled children’s ibuprofen products have lot codes of: 7261973A and 7261974A and bear an expiration date of 01/31/2027, according to the federal agency.

The FDA is classifying the recall as a Class II, which the agency defines as anything where the “use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”

ABC News has reached out to Taro Pharmaceuticals and its parent company Sun Pharma for comment.

Keith Urban was honored with the Randy Owen Angels Among Us Award Thursday at Country Radio Seminar in Nashville.

The accolade is named for the Alabama legend and the band’s 1993 hit, recognizing his work that’s raised more than $1 billion for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital since 1989.

Keith’s history with the Memphis nonprofit dates back to his first visit in 1998.

By standing together, we’ve been able to help St. Jude continue advancing research and treatment for children around the world with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. It is an absolute honor to stand behind a mission this meaningful.”

On a musical note, Keith revealed he’s working on a new yacht rock project, previewing it during MCA’s annual lunch Thursday at the Ryman.

Mike WiLL Made-It hits ‘R3SET’ on new album

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Mike WiLL Made-It has released his new album, R3SET, inspired by his personal and creative reset after hitting rock bottom following the loss of his hard drive containing his music.

“We all go through ups and downs and bumps and turbulence and all that kind of stuff during whatever journey,” he tells The Associated Press. “So I definitely was going through that, but then at the same time, I’m just being creative as well too because I feel like even over that time, I was able to do a lot of reflection and look at the landscape of the game and just really learned a lot.”

After fulfilling label obligations and questioning his next musical direction, Mike said he felt stuck and discouraged, especially as relationships shifted.

“When you hot everybody in your face … they rocking with you,” he said. “If you’re not in their face, if you not on them charts or you not hot, the conversation just a little different. You not able to reach the same folks at the same time so that kind of gets discouraging.”

“Then I had to realize every artist, every person is their own corporation,” he continued, adding he had to stop putting so much pressure on himself and just believe. “I’m him, I am the hard drive,” he said.

R3SET features previously released singles “D33P3R” featuring Teezo Touchdown and Ludacris; “ROOMS” featuring YoungBoy Never Broke Again and Chief Keef; and “STANDING O” with Travis Porter and Monaleo. Other guest appearances include 21 Savage, Young Thug, 2 Chainz, CeeLo Green and J. Cole.

The album is now streaming, with a limited-edition double disc 12-inch vinyl and a standard CD available on his website.

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Cameras have started rolling on the Assassin’s Creed live-action TV series.

Netflix has announced that the upcoming series adaptation of the popular video game franchises has started filming in Rome, Italy.

The show’s original story will be set in Rome in 64 AD, with production taking place at Cinecittà Studios.

The TV show will be a high-octane thriller about “the secret war between two shadowy factions — one set on determining mankind’s future through control and manipulation, while the other fights to preserve free will,” according to its official logline. “The series follows its characters across pivotal historical events as they battle to shape humanity’s destiny.”

The Assassin’s Creed video game franchise arrived in 2007 from the video game publisher Ubisoft. This upcoming show is nearly five years in the making, becoming the first series developed under Netflix’s agreement with Ubisoft.

Emmy nominees Roberto Patino and David Wiener created the series, and will serve as showrunners and executive producers.

The show’s previously announced cast includes Lola Petticrew, Toby Wallace, Zachary Hart, Laura Marcus, Tanzyn Crawford, Nabhann Rizwan, Claes Bang, Noomi Rapace, Ramzy Bedia, Sean Harris and Corrado Invernizzi.

Four new recurring cast members have joined the show’s ensemble: Sandra Guldberg-Kampp, Youssef Kerkour, Mirren Mack and Louis McCartney.

Assassin’s Creed is one of the bestselling series in video game history with over 230 million units sold, according to Netflix.

It’s an interspecies love story, baby, just say woof: Taylor Swift cat & Travis Kelce dog to wed

March 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Are you ready for it? A cat named Taylor Swift and a dog named Travis Kelce are getting married, and if you’re in the neighborhood, you can witness their “Love Story” in person.

The tabby cat, named Taylor “Kitty” Swift, and the dog, Travis “Takeoff” Kelce, who appears to be a bulldog mix, will wed Saturday at the Jefferson Parish Eastbank Regional Library in Metairie, Louisiana, where the furry couple first “bumped noses.”

The public is invited to attend, but you need to register and to “dress nicely,” according to the library.

The event isn’t entirely a joke, though. The celebration of the animals’ “fur-ever love” is actually an adoption event with Jefferson Protection & Animal Welfare Services. The wedding invitation from the library says, “Taylor and Travis want more than anything to see some of their friends from JPAWS go to loving homes. Adoptable cats and dogs will be there in as guests and special members of the bridal party.”

As for the real Travis and Taylor, they do have some connection to Louisiana. Travis played in the 2025 Super Bowl at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, and Taylor performed three sold-out shows there on her Eras Tour.

No word on whether or not Meredith Grey, Benjamin Button and Olivia Benson have received personal invitations.
