Ravyn Lenae's 'Reputation' is an acoustic ballad that delves into the complexities of a crumbling relationship, featuring a guest verse from Dominic Fike.

Um, so yeah, I think I would rather for the sake of my privacy not say too much. But what I would say is that recovery is an ongoing process. I'm not the finished article, but I'm doing a hell of a lot better.

Kanya King stated, 'Black music shapes what we listen to, how we speak, how we dress, how we tell our stories and I guess it's defined as Britain's cultural identity but structurally and institutionally is still often treated as m.'

"Making the first-ever signature Sprite Sound is the type of artistic collaboration I love, since we both stand for empowering artists and authentic self-expression," Mustard said. "Sprite is iconic and a legend in music culture, and I made the new sonic identity to be intense, crisp and just as iconic as the brand."

The first single from the forthcoming CoSemo album is the soulful, instant classic, house track 'You Know Where To Go'. Produced by Finnian Casey it features vocals from Nick DeCoSemo and Kristina Train. Aside from Kristina's sublime singing 'You Know Where To Go' is given another, authentic analog dimension via additional Rhodes Piano and classic synth parts - provided by English Mercury Music Prize-nominee and Indie Rock legend Ed Harcourt.

Beabadoobee has tapped the Marías for a new single. 'All I Did Was Dream of You' is Bea Kristi's first original music since the release of her Rick Rubin-produced 2024 album, This Is How Tomorrow Moves. Jake Erland and Aboveground directed the accompanying music video, which was shot in Vilnius, Lithuania.

British performers Olivia Dean, who won the prestigious gong for best new artist; Lola Young, who took home best pop solo performance for Messy; and FKA twigs, who won best dance/electronic album for Eusexua, all attended the Brit school in Selhurst.

Former black midi bassist/vocalist Cameron Picton launched the new group My New Band Believe last year, and they've now announced their self-titled debut album, which will be out April 10 via Rough Trade. The album features contributions from most of caroline, as well as Kiran Leonard, Caius Williams, Steve Noble, Andrew Cheetham, and more. He notes that the album is almost entirely acoustic, "using the barest amount of reverb and electronic effects possible."

I tried 3 separate times over 2 years to track this song, and each time it either wasn't finished or didn't sound right and each time we had to start again. I kept hearing this really high harmony in my head, so for the fourth and final version, I asked Katie if she'd be into singing it with me. I'm a big Waxahatchee fan. I really love Katie's songwriting and her voice, so it was an honour to have her sing on 'Site Unseen.'
