AS EVERYTHING UNFOLDS – SET IN FLOW (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

As Everything Unfolds, formed in High Wycombe, England, fuse a wide range of genres from post-hardcore to progressive metal.

In June 2025, they released their first single since moving to major label Century Media Records.

While retaining vocalist Charlie Rolfe’s emotive delivery, this release breaks new ground in sound production—incorporating autotune and showcasing exceptional quality.

Overcoming the profound grief of their drummer’s passing in August 2024, the track conveys the band’s determination to seize a new momentum with strength.

Things We Tell OurselvesBetween the Buried&Me

BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME – Things We Tell Ourselves In The Dark (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Between the Buried and Me, hailing from North Carolina, USA, continue to be celebrated as a charismatic force in the scene, presenting a unique sound built on a labyrinthine, genre-spanning ensemble and a musicality influenced by classic progressive rock.

The track they unveil opens with a funky bassline led by bassist Dan Briggs and unfolds over roughly eight minutes, morphing fluidly from jazz to extreme metal to prog—a sound that could only be theirs.

Also note how vocalist Tommy Giles Rogers Jr.

delivers the introspective theme of “the dark cloud of ego” with a confident style, as if singing a pop song.

This piece was released in June 2025 as an advance single from the album The Blue Nowhere, due out in September 2025, and it signals a bold new musical frontier for the band.

Charlie Sloth ft. Mazza L20, Giggs – SLEEP (Official Music Video)

Charlie Sloth, a London-based DJ and producer who has long led the UK hip-hop scene, is behind this track.

Produced by him, it became a talked-about song upon its release in June 2025.

Centered on the theme of “sleepless nights,” its urban, dark yet emotional drill sound is truly striking.

Over a powerful trap beat, the skillful flow of rising talent Mazza L20 and the deep, seasoned rap of veteran Giggs blend seamlessly, creating a piece that resonates with listeners.

For fans, it’s also unmissable as their first collaboration since Giggs’s acclaimed 2016 album Landlord.

It’s a perfect track for anyone wanting to feel where UK hip-hop and grime stand today—or to soundtrack a night with a slightly shadowy ambiance.

Holy BlindfoldChris Brown

Chris Brown – Holy Blindfold (Lyric Video)

Chris Brown, a leading figure in the American R&B scene, released a solo single in June 2025 that elevates the intoxication of romance to a spiritual peak.

It vividly portrays the irresistible depth of love—like one’s vision being veiled by a sacred force—and the salvation discovered within it.

The track arrives as an advance release from his twelfth studio LP and ties into his large-scale 2025 stadium tour, “Breezy Bowl XX.” It’s a work that marks a new frontier for him, resonating not only on euphoric summer drives but also with listeners who want to immerse themselves in the multifaceted emotions of love.

So Be ItClipse

Clipse – So Be It (Official Music Video)

Clipse, the brother duo representing the East Coast hip-hop scene, have released a track in June 2025 that will appear on their first album in over 15 years, Let God Sort Em Out.

As expected, their longtime collaborator Pharrell Williams handles the production; the mysterious string textures and heavy low-end beat create the signature darkness only they can deliver.

The lyrics, centered on status, loyalty, and betrayal, are gripping, and the fact that the music video was shot at Louis Vuitton’s headquarters has also drawn attention.

Pusha T’s verse is noted for its clever critique believed to stem from events in 2023.

This track feels like a fitting piece to mark their comeback.
