THE ART OF BEING A MESS
THE ART OF BEING A MESS Album ∙ Pop ∙ 2025 Lauren Spencer Smith Lauren Spencer Smith’s sophomore album THE ART OF BEING A MESS is unapologetically unvarnished. The opening piano chords of “What a beautiful day” are so intimately recorded, the hammer hitting the strings and the frog-like croak of the pedals come across clearly. Lyrically, Spencer Smith is equally vulnerable, like on the aforementioned opener, where she rummages through her feelings to help explain why she feels so particularly shitty on such a gorgeous day. Her makeup is applied perfectly; not a hair is out of place. And yet? Sadness prevails. Spencer Smith spends the album finding ways to be okay while not being okay, like on the indie pop cut “bridesmaid.” Here, she reckons with the deterioration of a friendship, cleverly contextualizing such heartbreak by wishing her ex-bestie could be standing by her side on her wedding day, now that she’s “finally found the man that I adore.” On THE ART OF BEING A ...

FATHER FIGURE
FATHER FIGURE Album ∙ Pop ∙ 2025 Jon Bellion After 2018’s Glory Sound Prep , songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Jon Bellion stepped back from releasing music of his own. He still wrote and produced for other artists like Justin Bieber, Maroon 5, and Jonas Brothers, and headed up his label Beautiful Mind Records, which has released albums by the likes of Tori Kelly. He also became a dad—an experience, he tells Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, that sparked a realization. “You start to realize, ‘The father is wildly important in the home,’” he says. “You hear that, you believe that—and then you have children, and you’re like, ‘Oh, my God.’” Across FATHER FIGURE —Bellion’s first full-length in seven years—the Long Island-born pop alchemist comes to grips with fatherhood’s enormity while also appreciating the way that living life apart from the day-to-day artist grind has opened up his creativity. Now fully independent ( FATHER FIGURE is his first album on his own labe...
¿Y ahora qué? - EP
¿Y ahora qué? - EP Album ∙ Pop ∙ 2025 Alejandro Sanz Alejandro Sanz Artist ∙ Pop Latino In the ‘90s, as established Spanish pop stars competed for airplay against burgeoning rock en español upstarts, Alejandro Sanz concocted a riveting sound all his own with an irresistible mix of emotional pop balladry and flamenco soft rock. The Spanish troubadour also penned some of the most achingly romantic songs of Latin pop, bolstered by his sensuous Andalusian rasp. Born Alejandro Sánchez Pizarro in Madrid, Spain in 1968 to parents from Andalusia, the flamenco capital, the Spanish prodigy began playing guitar at the tender age of seven, a skill he inherited from his musician father. At 10 years old, he was already writing his own songs. In 1989, he launched his music career with his debut Los Chulos Son Pa’ Cuidarlos , which skillfully combined techno and flamenco, under the pseudonym of Alejandro Magno. Two years later, the musician used his own name for the release of his major-label deb...
Sturm
Sturm Album ∙ Pop ∙ 2025 Gölä Gölä Artist ∙ Pop Swiss rock band Gölä enjoyed chart-topping, award-winning success in their homeland for several years before switching languages from Swiss German to English in 2004. Led by singer/songwriter/guitarist Marco "Gölä" Pfeuti, the band originally performed songs in Swiss German and made its recording debut in 1998 with the album Uf U Dervo. Subsequent albums increased the group's popularity, but in 2004, Pfeuti left behind his native language and not only began singing songs in English, but changed the configuration of his band. Renamed Burn and pared down to a trio, this new incarnation of the group released one unsuccessful album before switching its name back to Gölä. ~ Jason Birchmeier

Addison
Addison Album ∙ Pop ∙ 2025 Addison Rae Addison Rae Artist ∙ Pop Viral sensation-turned-pop upstart Addison Rae (born Addison Rae Easterling in 2000 in Lafayette, LA) became known in the late 2010s for her dance moves, amassing millions of followers online. After venturing into podcasting and makeup, she parlayed those fans into an entertainment career, releasing the breathy single “Obsessed” in 2021 and starring in the gender-flipped She’s All That remake He’s All That the same year. Rae’s long-in-the-works debut EP, AR came out in 2023, and cuts like “2 die 4,” a minimalist collaboration with pop futurist Charli xcx, and “Nothing On (But The Radio),” a storming electro-pop anthem, showed her hitmaking acumen and flirtatious personality. In 2024 she appeared with Charli once again on “The von dutch remix with addison rae and a. g. cook,” a glitchy reworking of the lead single from her frequent collaborator’s expectation-defying BRAT . ...
