Friday has arrived, and that means one thing: a fresh wave of New music to soundtrack your weekend! This week, the music gods have truly delivered a diverse and exciting mix of sounds. From pop royalty collaborations to indie gems, there's something for everyone to discover. Let's dive into ET's top picks for New Music Friday.
New Music Friday: Styles, Lopez, Shakira Drop BOMB...
Headlining this week's releases is the highly anticipated collaboration between Jennifer Lopez and David Guetta, "Save Me Tonight." This track promises to be an irresistible dance-pop anthem, perfect for hitting the clubs or just belting it out in your car. And speaking of powerhouse collaborations, Shakira teams up with Béele on "ALGO TÚ," undoubtedly delivering a Latin-infused banger that will dominate the charts. Both are available now, ready to stream on Apple Music and Spotify.
Beyond the big names, there are plenty of other exciting releases to explore. Ty Dolla $ign drops *girl music vol. 1*, which I'm personally keen to check out – his laid-back style always hits the spot. Bebe Rexha offers up "New Religion," while Gnarls Barkley returns with "Atlanta," bringing back their signature eclectic sound. It's good to see them back; their last release felt like ages ago!
For those seeking something a little different, Rita Wilson unveils "Michelangelo," and Maya Hawke (yes, from *Stranger Things*) continues her musical journey with "Devil You Know." I'm always fascinated by actors who branch out into music, and Hawke's previous work has been surprisingly good. Anitta brings her vibrant energy to "Pinterest," and Eric Nam delivers "How The Fire Started." Honestly, the sheer variety is almost overwhelming – in the best way possible.
In the spirit of global collaboration, J Balvin and Amber Mark have joined forces with Travis Barker and Steve Vai for "JUMP," Coca-Cola's official anthem for the FIFA World Cup 2026. That's a mouthful of talent right there! Manuel Turizo and Maluma team up on "Apambichao," while Mike Posner reflects on his past with "I Went Back To Ibiza." If you're feeling the love, Stephen Sanchez offers "Love, Love, Love."
Rounding out the list are GIRLSET with "Tweak," Channel Tres with "Medicine," and Sharon Marley (along with Cedella Marley & Rica Newell) with "Island." Lily Meola, with the legendary Willie Nelson, gives us "Tumbleweeds and Chewing Gum," a collaboration that sounds intriguing. And finally, Southall shares "Burning Bridges." Seriously, with such a massive influx of New music, finding your next favorite song is pretty much guaranteed this week. Happy listening!
