I Prevail – PRAY (Official Music Video)

I Prevail is an American rock band that blends post-hardcore and metalcore and has gained popularity for their distinctive sound.

They first drew attention with a 2014 cover and are known as a formidable act, having been nominated for a Grammy in 2019.

Their new song is this very track.

It opens with a quiet acoustic guitar and then unfolds with explosive intensity, as if emotions are bursting forth.

The song carries a powerful message of rejecting pity from someone who betrayed you, cutting ties, and moving forward.

It’s included on their album “Violent Nature,” released in September 2025, and is sure to stir your spirit when you need to overcome something.

Lovejoy – Common Touch (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

Though formed only in 2021, Lovejoy, a band based in Brighton, England, have steadily built a fanbase, with their 2023 EP “Wake Up & It’s Over” reaching No.

5 on the UK charts.

A track from their debut album “One Simple Trick” leans into a brisk, high-energy indie rock vibe.

The song depicts the inner conflict of someone in a privileged position and their disconnect from “ordinary people,” creating an engaging contrast between the lively band sound and the lyrics’ sardonic perspective.

Energetic yet tinged with melancholy, it’s a track that works both when you want to lift your spirits and when you’re looking for something to quietly accompany more complicated feelings.

Ari Lennox – Vacancy (Visualizer)

Ari Lennox, an R&B singer who debuted under J.

Cole’s label and earned high praise for her May 2019 album “Shea Butter Baby,” is a leading figure in the contemporary neo-soul scene.

Following a label change, she has released this new track.

Produced by heavyweights like Jermaine Dupri, the song boasts a richly vintage sound that feels like a modern update of ’70s soul.

Its sensual, double-entendre lyrics—inviting someone over for the weekend under the pretext of home repairs—are thrillingly clever.

Bold yet cool, her vocals showcase Ari Lennox’s prowess as a singer-songwriter, making the track perfect as BGM for a slightly more grown-up evening.

It showcases the chemistry between Corbyn, who excels at R&B-tinged pop, and Tzuyu, known for her graceful performance style.

Released in September 2025, the track also drew attention for its music video filmed in Seoul.

It’s the perfect song for moments when you want a heart-lifting rush of excitement, or as a companion for a drive.

Detroit-born rapper Tee Grizzley, who shook the scene with 2016’s “First Day Out,” has returned with a new single released in September 2025—an intensely introspective track centered on a homecoming to his roots in Michigan.

Beyond candid lyrics that lay bare the pressures behind his success and his feelings for family, he surprises with a new side: shifting from his traditionally hard-edged style to a melodic flow that channels raw emotion.

His personal story of bringing his family back from LA to Michigan adds a deep layer of resonance to the song.

Make sure to take your time with this track, which captures both his bold new direction and a return to where it all began.

My Only AngelAerosmith, YUNGBLUD

Aerosmith, YUNGBLUD – My Only Angel (Official Visualizer)

Aerosmith, who have reigned as an icon of American hard rock since the ’70s and still enjoy immense popularity, have released a sweeping power ballad in collaboration with YUNGBLUD, a leading figure in today’s UK rock scene.

Opening quietly with Steven Tyler’s wistful vocals before unfolding into a heavy, full-band sound, this dramatic track is driven by poignant lyrics that call a loved one an “angel” while confessing the fear that they might leave again.

This is the lead single from One More Time, an EP that includes Aerosmith’s first original song in 13 years.

The collaboration itself is remarkable—perhaps even a moment destined to be recorded in rock history.

Madison Beer – yes baby (Official Music Video)

Singer-songwriter Madison Beer, whose YouTube uploads caught Justin Bieber’s eye and launched her career, is known for her wide-ranging musicality from pop to psych rock.

Her new track is an electropop song marked by shimmering synths and a heartbeat-like beat.

The piece is an exhilarating dance tune built around a repeated phrase that carries a double meaning: a positive response to love and a call-and-response at live shows.

Released in September 2025 as a follow-up to her Grammy-nominated work Make You Mine, it drew major attention, surpassing one million streams on its first day.

It’s the perfect track for amping up the energy with friends.
