The five-year wait for new Avril Lavigne comes to an end today (September 19) with the arrival of "Head Above Water." The soaring single, which details the 33-year-old's battle with Lyme Disease, was produced by Stephan Moccio — a man that knows a thing or two about power ballads. (His songwriting discography includes Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" and Celine Dion's "A New Day Has Come"). However,...

All good things come to those who wait. And we have waited for close to a decade! On October 26, Robyn will roll out a new album — eight, long years after the arrival of Body Talk in 2010. The opus is called Honey and it is already available to (pre) pre-order. The Swedish pop icon announced the much-anticipated project in an Instagram video earlier this morning (September 19) and listed Joseph Mount...

EDIT: Kesha's powerful new single arrived earlier this morning (listen below). It is taken from an upcoming biopic about Ruth Bader Ginsburg called On The Basis Of Sex. The hitmaker wrote an essay about the song and film, which you can read here. Start engraving that Oscar for Best Original Song! This is shaping up to be a big week for new releases. Avril Lavigne returns to the music scene tomorrow...

Girl groups tend to have a short shelf life, but Japan's Perfume have been entertaining the masses for more than a decade. The trio's razor-sharp choreography and twinkly techno sound has taken them to the top of the Japanese charts and also made them one of the few J-Pop acts to break through internationally.Their latest album, Future Pop, is a tight, 12-track collection comprised of the distinctive...

"Taki Taki" is on the way! Anticipation has been sky-high since French producer DJ Snake revealed he collaborated with Selena Gomez, Cardi B and Ozuna on a song called "Taki Taki" last month. He promised it would be the "biggest record in the world," and now it has a release date. Moments ago, he and Selena took to Instagram to announce the simmering hit is set to arrive next Friday (September 28)....

Lana Del Rey is a truly generous queen. The 33-year-old offered up a first taste of new music last week with the unveiling of "Mariners Apartment Complex." A creative collaboration with Jack Antonoff, the dreamy bop offers an idea about the sonic direction she is exploring on her forthcoming album. Today (September 18), she dropped her second late-summer single, "Venice Bitch." Unsurprisingly, it is...

Tori Kelly's Unbreakable Smile is that rare kind of debut album that stands out as an impressive achievement in its own right, but also hints at something greater. It had radio hits, quieter moments and soulful grooves, but there was always the sneaking suspicion that the 25-year-old's voice could soar even higher, that she could open her heart even wider. That promise finally comes to fruition on...

It's a pop miracle! After six years and several setbacks (including ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris torpedoing a finished project), Rita Ora's sophomore LP finally has a release date. Phoenix drops on November 23 and will be preceded by a new single called "Let You Love Me." The future hit is described as one of the Brit's "most intimate tracks to date" and arrives on Friday (September 21). She also unveiled...

Iggy Azalea's comeback is in full swing. The rapper, who many wrote off after the atomic fallout that followed the success of The New Classic, recently returned to the Billboard Hot 100 with "Kream" and just dropped one of the better EPs of 2018. Not only that, but the Aussie hitmaker's new sound — a return to the aggressive, defiantly sexual anti-pop of her mixtapes, has struck a chord well outside...

Ariana Grande soars to new heights on her fourth LP, Sweetener. It has been two years since the pop princess dropped her critically acclaimed Dangerous Woman. In that time, she has weathered tragedy following a terrorist attack at her Manchester concert and the heartbreak of a failed relationship. However, these moments made her stronger. The newly engaged singer rediscovered happiness, and her latest...

What delays? Despite rumors that Nicki Minaj's Queen had been pushed back one week, the rap legend's fourth LP arrived on schedule today (August 10). It may have been a race to the finish line - the "Anaconda" rapper said she finished the project last night and was still arranging the final tracklist this morning - but it was mostly worth the effort. On it, she reasserts her dominance and repeatedly,...

Rise up, Fighters! Christina Aguilera's highly-anticipated Liberation arrives today (June 15). With a discography jam-packed with hits, the 37-year-old's early releases rank as some of the most iconic of the last 20 years. However, her two most albums haven't resonated to the same extent. 2010's electro-kissed Bionic was ahead of its time but wildly uneven, while Lotus offered some fun pop anthems...
