Prepare yourselves, music enthusiasts; the pop scene is about to explode this week. Heavyweights including Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, and Ariana Grande are gearing up for simultaneous releases starting this Thursday evening.
Last week, Gomez hinted at her upcoming release by tweeting her audience’s clamour for new music. She mentioned her in-progress third studio album but decided to release an end-of-summer tune titled “Single Soon” accompanied by a video.
Similarly, Cyrus has a treat lined up for her fans. Her new single “Used to be Young” launches at midnight on Thursday, with a special feature “Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions)” airing on ABC at 10 pm local time. The special, as Cyrus describes, revisits three decades of her life, dedicating her song to her unwavering fanbase. The lyrics penned nearly two years back during her phase of feeling “misunderstood”, according to Cyrus, encapsulate a sonic journey, capturing her current life stage as “unfinished yet complete.”
Meanwhile, Ariana Grande is marking a decade since her inaugural album “Yours Truly” debuted in 2013. A week-long festivity has been outlined on her Instagram, kicking off with a deluxe edition of “Yours Truly” at 9 pm PST on Thursday, peppered with live renditions of “Honeymoon Avenue” and “Daydreamin’.” Fans can anticipate a two-part Q&A, new merchandise, and live performances of tracks like “Baby I Live,” “Tattooed Heart,” and “Right There.” The grand finale on Wednesday showcases a live act of “The Way,” her collaboration with the late Mac Miller, coupled with behind-the-scenes footage.
But the musical fiesta doesn’t end there. Friday brings further releases from Iggy Azalea, BLACKPINK, and a fresh music video from Sza.
Feeling overwhelmed? You might want to clear some space in your playlist – a flurry of late summer anthems is on the horizon.
As the temperatures cool down, the music scene is set to sizzle with these power-packed releases. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just looking for the next summer anthem, this week promises to cater to every musical palate. Don’t miss out on this musical bonanza; refresh your playlists, keep your headphones close, and dive into the vibrant world of pop music.
