Kacey Musgraves dropped “Dry Spell,” the lead single for Middle of Nowhere, her first studio album since 2024’s Grammy-winning Deeper Well. The winking, sensual song previews a 13-track set that includes collaborations with Willie Nelson, Billy Strings, Gregory Alan Isakov and even Miranda Lambert. Middle of Nowhere arrives May 1, via the recently revived Lost Highway Records.
The Pussycat Dolls continued the comeback trend with “Club Song,” the group’s first new single in six years, which coincided with the announcement of its forthcoming arena-headlining world tour. The PCD Forever Tour will play over 50 dates across the U.K., Europe and North America, with Grammy winners Lil’ Kim and Mýa joining as special guests. This Pussycat Dolls reunion will bring together founding members Nicole Scherzinger, Kimberly Wyatt and Ashley Roberts. The other three members of the original six-piece lineup — Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta and Carmit Bachar — are sitting this trek out.
New singles also arrived from Noah Kahan (“Porch Light”); Momo Boyd (“Strong”); Luke Combs (“I Ain’t No Cowboy”); Vybz Kartel and Shenseea (“Talk to Me Nuh”); Samara Cyn (“Oooshxt!”); Lainey Wilson (“Can’t Sit Still”); 50 Cent and Leon Thomas (“No One Told Us”); Shaggy and Robin Thicke (“Looking Lovely”); Sienna Spiro (“The Visitor”) and Kenya Grace (“Naked”).
Jack Harlow hasn’t dropped a project since 2023’s Jackman, and he threw the world a curveball with his new Monica album. Across nine succinct tracks recorded at New York City’s Electric Lady Studios, the Louisville MC trades his signature bars for tender crooning vaguely reminiscent of Soulquarian-era R&B.
Grammy-winning cross-genre savant James Blake also shared an immersive new album titled Trying Times, while Los Angeles alt-pop band LANY dropped Soft 2, an expanded edition of its 2025 LP. Charlie Puth, who sang the national anthem at Super Bowl LX Feb. 8, dropped his Whatever’s Clever album, and Netherlands-born R&B maestro Leven Kali shared his LK99 project.
