Meanwhile, Demi dives into dance-pop music with her latest track.  Add in Metro Boomin, Reneé Rapp, and Seunghan (yes, that Seunghan from RIIZE), and you’ve got a spicy lineup for your playlist.

Let’s break it down:

#01. Chappell Roan – “The Subway”
Fans have been begging for this one since she teased it on stage in 2024. This sentimental ballad is all about heartbreak, as Chappell Roan belts out  “She got away.” A must-listen for this Friday.

#02. Metro Boomin – A Futuristic Summa
Metro’s Boomin is returning with a mixtape that feels like a time machine, taking inspo from late-2000s nostalgia with modern hip-hop. Collabs from Young Duo and Roscoe Dash make it a summer soundtrack!

#03. Demi Lovato – “Fast”
Demi Lovato had her rock, but “Fast” is her official dive back into dance-pop music. A sweaty club track, proving she can also be a dancefloor diva.

#04. Reneé Rapp – Bite Me
Reneé is done playing nice! This second album is bold and sassy, blending biting pop-rock with moments of big vocals and strong choruses.

#05. XngHan & Xoul – Waste No Time
Former RIIZE member Seunghan reinvents himself with his dance crew XngHan & Xoul. His new solo targets the dancefloor, proving the idol’s strong dancing skills.
