SaWaDiKa – LISA

A new solo chapter for LISA is upon us with the release of her comeback single SaWaDiKa, which serves as the lead single off her upcoming PRESS PLAY EP. The track sees LISA returning to her roots with her rap prowess and core hip-hop sound as she starts with a bang and doesn’t relent.

Bass Persuades – Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus, or should we say MILEY, dips into her pop bag for a catchy track on living life outside of screens. If this is what we can expect from her new album Bass Persuades, then MILEY has our attention.  

CLICK – JISOO

In JISOO’s new English single CLICK, the track explores a connection that defies logic, where differences vanish as everything falls naturally into place. Beyond a love story, it also reflects the deep bond between JISOO and her fans, creating a dynamic where two sides meet and instantly click into place.

CAN I WATCH YOU – Beyoncé and Pharrell Williams

Two decades ago, Beyoncé dropped what remains one of her best albums, B’DAY. So, to celebrate the occasion, she released a 20th anniversary deluxe edition of her second solo studio album, which features unreleased tracks, remixes, and collaborations. Fittingly, the collection dropped on her birthday, September 4.

For Your Entertainment – Ellie Goulding

Ellie Goulding has been going viral on social media lately, with everyone remembering how good she is at making pop music. But her new music is also a good listen, particularly with her new studio album I Know Too Much, which further highlights her craft in pop.  

Nicole Kidman – ADÉLA

Rising star ADÉLA solidifies her place as one of 2026’s most exciting new artists with the release of her debut full-length studio album PRIMA. She’s exactly the girl she thinks she is with her new record.

Donuts – Nadine Lustre and apl.de.ap

Nadine Lustre continues her new music era with Donuts, a fast-paced track that weaves Lustre’s vocals and bars and features a rap verse from apl.de.ap.

Skibidi – Girls’ Generation-HRS

If you think this song is a joke, that’s because this Girls’ Generation sub-unit single is. The song is not meant to be taken seriously, though it does have us tempted for a replay with its addictive house beat.

FLOAT – TAEMIN

This somewhat laid-back track, built upon a dreamy bed of synths and a garage beat, makes for a fine listen from the K-pop star.

Meme – Baby Dolls

No, this is not a homage to Vice Ganda, but Baby Dolls’ latest novelty P-pop track that is easy on the ears and easier to dance to.

one good thing – Lyn Lapid

Lyn Lapid’s first single of the year reminds us that despite how toxic a relationship can get, you can’t deny the place your partner has in your life.

Lipgloss – Ivoris and Clara Benin

Ivoris and Clara Benin make a lovely duo in this charming love song that carries traces of Y2K pop song energy.

DEJAVU – KWON EUNBI

It doesn’t matter if we’re in the middle of monsoon season. KWON EUNBI’s new single is going straight to the summer playlist.

MP3 SUMMER – PIAO and Stephanie Poetri

The song’s title says it all. This track has 2010s teen party written all over it.
