After sitting out most of 2020, Brockhampton is back with their new album ‘Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine.’

While the group of 13 isn’t known for collaborating with many other musicians, their project features a large list of guest stars. Among the many collaborators are: Charlie Wilson, ASAP Rocky, and ASAP Ferg.

‘Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine’ is set to be one of two albums released by the group this year. However, the news is bittersweet as these last two albums will be the group’s last ones.

It’s been over 3 years since Miguel released an English body of work, with his last studio effort coming courtesy of 2017’s Billboard 200 top 10 hit album, ‘War & Leisure.’

Fans in need of a Miggy fix were delighted to learn the GRAMMY winner announced the April 9 arrival of the fourth installment in his ‘Art Dealer Chic’ musical series – the long-awaited follow-up to 2012’s ‘Art Dealer Chic Vol. 3.’

Speaking on the new project, he revealed:

“I’ve been doing a lot of work to consider and refine my beliefs in the last few years,” Miguel wrote in an official statement announcing the new EP. “Inevitably, this brought me back to Art Dealer Chic, as ADC is more or less a moniker for active mindset curation; choosing the thoughts, emotions, and actions that reflect my truest self instead of letting what I’ve experienced or what is expected of me dictate my choices. As a basic operating system, this mentality has made a profound impact on my life and I want to continue to share how through the music and the conversation around ADC.”

Gwen Stefani‘s ‘Slow Clap’ has had a slow climb up charts (as of time reported) – a trajectory she’s looking to remedy with the tune’s bop of a remix.

Despite a promotional blitz to help maximize the tune’s exposure since it’s March 11 debut, ‘Clap’ hasn’t exactly been met with applause and fanfare on the Hot 100 as it’s yet to make a premiere appearance on the tally.

Tapping ‘Tap In’ star Saweetie to assist with its revamp, the ever-youthful Gwen takes her talents back to high school to render a colorful and energetic visual for ‘Slow’ that’s sure to quickly draw comparisons to her 2005 #1 hit, ‘Hollaback Girl.’

To stick with that winning formula, the rising rapstress has enlisted fellow GRAMMY nominee SZA for what many are already predicting will be her next smash hit – ‘Kiss Me More.’
