Doja Cat, Tyler, The Creator, Lady A, and Hiatus Kaiyote release new albums this week, giving us a variety of genres to listen to.
Tyler, The Creator releases his new album Call Me If You Get Lost today. The album includes previously released songs “Lumberjack,” “Wusyaname,” and “Brown Sugar Salmon.” The album cover is a license for Tyler, The Creator, showing him in a light blue hat. Part of the license reads “The holder of this license wrote, composed, and arranged all songs within the attached record, unless stated otherwise.”
Hiatus Kaiyote, the Australian-based band, release a new album today called Mood Valiant. The band recently released the song “Chivalry Is Not Dead” which will be included on the album. Nai Palm the singer of the band was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018, which slowed down the process of making Mood Valiant. She announced the album saying “When you think your life is going to be taken away from you, it makes you think about who you are. I guess after the breast cancer scare I decided that I needed to prove to life that the offering I have is genuine. My only wish is to live and offer my experience of time and beauty.”
Doja Cat releases a new album today called Planet Her. The fourteen-track album features many special appearances by other artists including Ariana Grande, the Weeknd, Young Thug, JID, and SZA. “Kiss Me More” featuring SZA, and “Need To Know” which have been previously released will be included on the new album.
Philly R&B artist T’Melle gets the heart racing, with her workout-centric single “Work 4 It”. Look for an accompanying visual next week. Miami rapper Money Rod drops “Money”, an anthem for the summer. He flips The O’Jay’s classing song “For The Love of Money” with a modern-day twist. LA rapper KDL releases his latest single and video “No Love.” This song is about overcoming defeat, finding yourself, and weeding out all of the fake love. “No Love” is going to be the catalyst of monthly releases for KDL as he looks to turn up this summer since we’re back outside.
Today Lady A releases a new album What a Song Can Do (Chapter One). The album includes previously released tracks, “Like A Lady,” and “Things He Handed Down.” The band described the album when they announced it earlier this month on their Instagram saying, “With every track on this collection, we strived to share a little bit more of who we are and what we’ve taken from this last year.” Seven songs are included on the album which was produced by Dann Huff.
