New Music Friday: Listen To Releases By Miley Cyrus, Cardi B, ATEEZ & More

Do you remember the 21st night of September? The classic date famously referenced by Earth, Wind & Fire is just around the corner, and artists of all types are joining the party with musical offerings of their own.

RAYE kicks off the era for her hotly anticipated sophomore album with the cheeky demand of lead single "WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!," while FINNEAS and Ashe make their debut as The Favors with full-length debut The Dream. Several rising country stars also deliver new tunes, with Josh Ross unveiling his debut album, Later Tonight; Lauren Watkins teaming up with John Morgan on "Slippery Slope"; Dasha hopping on the "Train," Corey Kent recruiting Max McNown for "Measure," and Kameron Marlowe yearning to "Let the Lonely" in.

Elsewhere, Jesse McCartney gets Weightless with four smooth tracks on his latest EP and Carly Rae Jepsen continues prepping for the 10th anniversary edition of Emotion with the floaty, synth-driven "Guardian Angel." Plus, Julia Michaels declares "No Heartbreak's Killed Me Yet," Miguel celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month (and his upcoming new album) with "El Pleito," The Chainsmokers and AppleTV+ drops the jam-packed soundtrack for their new musical series "KPOPPED," which features must-hear collaborations between Kesha and JO1, J Balvin and ATEEZ, Patti LaBelle and Billie, Spice Girls' Emma Bunton and Mel B with ITZY and more.

Below, press play on 11 other new releases to soundtrack your weekend, including new bonus tracks from Miley Cyrus, new albums by ATEEZ, Cardi B and Lola Young and singles from Lewis Capaldi, Aerosmith and YUNGBLUD and YoungBoy Never Broke Again.

Miley Cyrus — Something Beautiful (Deluxe)

Miley Cyrus isn't quite finished with Something Beautiful. Three months after the album became the eighth Top 5 set of the superstar's career, she has offered up a deluxe edition of the ambitious, high-concept project featuring a pair of seriously major new collaborations. First up is "Secrets," a soft rock anthem she shares with Lindsay Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac, which is followed by "Lockdown," a cacophonous, experimental, 13-minute opus between Cyrus and David Byrne.

Cardi B — AM I THE DRAMA?

Seven years after her GRAMMY-winning debut, Invasion of Privacy, Cardi B's long-awaited sophomore album, AM I THE DRAMA?, has finally arrived. Along with pre-release singles "Outside" and "Imaginary Playerz," Cardi packs the studio set with A-list collaborations with Selena Gomez ("Pick It Up"), Lizzo (the 4 Non Blondes-sampling "What's Goin On"), Janet Jackson ("Principal," which borrows from the superstar's Control-era smash "The Pleasure Principle"), Tyla ("Nice") and more, while "WAP" and "Up" make a surprise appearance at the close of the album's 23-song tracklist.

ATEEZ — Ashes to Light

Building off their trio of Golden Hour EPs — the latest of which dropped just three months ago — ATEEZ comes roaring back with Ashes to Light, their second full-length offering in Japanese. On Sept. 16, the K-pop idols also dropped the music video for lead single "Ash," which finds all eight members dressed in sharp white ensembles against a stark, eerie landscape as they sing, "I'm dancing in the ash/ It's still here, your touch/ You're not here, this hush/ Even if the shape chances forever/ Smoldering love, piling up ash." (English translation courtesy of Genius.)

Lewis Capaldi — "Something In The Heavens"

Lewis Capaldi continues rolling out new music with "Something in the Heavens," a follow-up to his comeback single "Survive" from earlier this summer. Up against the encroaching threat of gathering clouds and "days of permanent gray," the British singer/songwriter's falsetto soars as he vows, "I'll love you till my last breath/ You're gone but/ Something in the heavens tells me that we'll be together again." Corresponding with the track's release, the two-time GRAMMY nominee also recorded a gorgeous take of the song live from the famous Abbey Road Studios.

Aerosmith & YUNGBLUD — "My Only Angel"

It's official: Aerosmith and YUNGBLUD are joining forces on a joint EP, One More Time. The project — which serves as the Steven Tyler-fronted band's first new music in more than a dozen years — won't arrive in full until Nov. 21, but the rockers have shared a first taste of what to expect with lead single "My Only Angel."

"Would you cry if I called you my angel?/ Gotta leave, gotta leave, gotta leave you one more time," Tyler and YUNGBLUD wail together on the song's arena-ready hook, which came about after Aerosmith was originally supposed to collaborate with the younger rocker on his bombastic Idols opener "Hello Heaven, Hello."

Kaash Paige — "GOD SAVE ME"

Kaash Paige dropped her latest EP, the hip-hop-infused KAASHMYCHECKS just last month, and just a matter of weeks later, she delivers a sonic 180 in the form of "GOD SAVE ME," the stripped-down R&B ballad that serves as the first preview of her forthcoming album, 2 Late 2 Be Toxic. In a press release, the versatile artist describes the new track as both her "emotional ground zero" and a musical example of "heartbreak at its most unfiltered, when love turns volatile and confusing."

Sammy Virji — Same Day Cleaning

It's been quite the summer for Sammy Virji, who kicked off the season by making his debut at Coachella and releasing the Issey Cross collaboration "Nostalgia." The season is bookended by the release of the rising London-born DJ's sophomore album, Same Day Cleaning, which also features guest appearances by the likes of Spice and Flowdan ("Match My Mood"), Giggs (album opener "One For the Books"), Skepta ("Cops & Robbers") and more.

Lola Young — *I'm Only F**king Myself*

Lola Young clearly believes in striking while the iron's hot, releasing her third album, I'm Only F**king Myself, a mere 15 months after she became one of the U.K.'s next big things with her 2024 breakout This Wasn't Meant For You Anyway. Across 14 chaotic tracks, the 24-year-old TikTok sensation explores nihilism ("who f**king cares?"), sex ("F**K EVERYONE"), drugs ("d£aler"), and a cavalcade of other self-destructive tendencies. Now six months sober, the singer describes the new studio set as "My ode to self-sabotage, my change to claw myself back from the edge of defeat."

YoungBoy Never Broke Again — "Out The Window"

Months after the song first started making the rounds online, YoungBoy Never Broke Again's "Out The Window" finally hits streaming services. The one-off, which follows continues the string of singles including "Shark," "Nussie," "I Forgive Them" and "Sorry Not Sorry," gives the rapper's vocoder-laced singing voice a chance to shine as he shouts out Salt Lake City and warbles, "And I come from the gutter where my brother like my bestie/ Ooh, I'm down bad, I'm not knowing what to say/ Flippin' and whippin' it/ Stackin' up Benjis, look like I'm a bank teller."

Aly & AJ — More Silver

Aly & AJ have More Silver to deliver. The sibling duo, who stopped by the GRAMMY Museum last week for an intimate chat about their latest full-length, build on the sun-drenched harmonies of May's Silver Deliverer with four more B-sides. Recorded in Los Angeles' Topanga Canyon, highlights like the crashing "The Last Town" and the tenderly contemplative "The Deep End" both complement the sonic universe the sisters crafted on Silver Deliverer and stand apart as delicate, precious gems worth mining all on their own.

Atmosphere — Jestures

It's been 30 years since Slug and Ant teamed up to form Atmosphere (as well as their pioneering Minneapolis record label, Rhymesayers) and the duo take a triumphant victory lap with Jestures, their thirteenth album together. The studio effort's 26 songs are arranged alphabetically, with each letter of the alphabet accounted for from "A—hole" to "Zorro" — and even guests like Evidence, Mike The Martyr, Musab and Muja Messiah appearing on the song whose title corresponds with the letter of their own stage name.
