Ice Cube, the legend who has led the West Coast hip-hop scene for many years.

You probably remember his work both as a member of N.W.A and as an actor.

His new track, released in September 2025, is this very piece.

It’s the lead single from the album “Man Up,” which takes on the theme of delving into his pre-hip-hop roots.

A dope track featuring a heavy, hard-hitting beat and skillful rapping filled with an unwavering perspective on society and culture.

It brilliantly fuses the no-nonsense style that defines his career with a contemporary sound—heads, don’t miss it!

Back to Forgettingjj

JJ – Back To Forgetting (Official Visualizer)

Austrian singer JJ, who stunned the world by winning the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest.

He’s known for his style that fuses pop and opera, and for his countertenor voice that reaches the soprano range despite being male.

Here’s his latest work: a track that sets the searing desire to erase all that has passed to a catchy pop sound.

The intense operatic vocals of his previous release, “Wasted Love,” are dialed back somewhat, but in their place shines a polished arrangement with a hint of club music.

Of course, the beautiful high notes he delivers in the bridge are still very much present, sure to captivate listeners beyond his core fan base.

Released in September 2025 as the follow-up single to his winning song, this piece is one that gently sits with you on a sentimental night.

Be sure to check it out.

Kiss of the Spider Woman

Jennifer Lopez, a global entertainer who excels as both a singer and an actress, continues to take on new challenges.

In September 2025, she released a long-awaited track: the title number from the musical film “Kiss of the Spider Woman,” in which she stars and serves as producer.

The work evokes classic, glamorous Hollywood with a traditional musical flair.

It sings of the fantasies used to escape a hopeless reality and the sweet yet dangerous allure of a star shining within them, instantly transporting listeners into a dreamlike world.

Reports that it was highly praised at the Sundance Film Festival further heighten expectations for the piece.

It’s an irresistible song for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the glittering world of showbiz.

GyattLatto & Ice Spice

Latto, Ice Spice – GYATT (Official Music Video)

Seasoned powerhouse Latto, who’s been nominated for a Grammy, and Ice Spice, who’s dominated the spotlight in the 2020s—rumors of friction between the two are still fresh, but the duo surprised everyone by dropping a collaborative track in September 2025.

The song features assertive verses that seem to acknowledge each other’s skills, and their exceptional flows over a hard-hitting beat are nothing short of stunning.

The music video cleverly flips their past beef, staging the resolution in a pro-wrestling ring—a true display of hip-hop’s entertainment spirit.

This release also draws attention as Latto’s next move following her album “Sugar Honey Iced Tea.” If you want to feel the dynamism of the scene, don’t miss it.

SPIDERSLola Young

Lola Young – SPIDERS (Official Video)

Laura Young, a London-born singer-songwriter who shot to prominence after earning her first UK No.

1 with “Messy” in 2024, is a BRIT-nominated talent whose emotionally rich voice—shaped by her multicultural background—captivates listeners.

In September 2025, she released a work that stands as a powerful ballad striking at the core of her album I’m Only F**king Myself.

The song tells a piercing story of self-acceptance in the face of self-destructive impulses.

Its urgent emotions—reaching out to touch the very symbols of fear in an effort to transcend vulnerability—hit home over a soundscape reminiscent of ’90s grunge.

It’s a track that will surely give you strength when you want to confront your own weaknesses.

Rabbit SeasonMachine Girl

Rabbit Season

Machine Girl is an electronic music project that launched in New York in 2012.

Fusing styles like digital hardcore and breakcore, they specialize in an incredibly aggressive sound and have built a fervent following in the underground scene.

This new track is a lead single from their album Psycho Warrior (MG Ultra X), released in September 2025.

The album takes a very cynical look at people who get sucked into internet conspiracy theories.

In genres like this, the extremity of the sound tends to hog the spotlight, but this song is different: its twisted pop sensibility really sticks with you, pairing dark subject matter with a deliberately cartoonish, bouncing, high‑speed beat.

It’s a track I especially recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy the unique satirical edge hidden within extreme music.

New MartyrsMiguel

Miguel – New Martyrs (Ride 4 U) (Audio)

Singer-songwriter Miguel, who has a track record of winning the Grammy Award for Best R&B Song, has earned acclaim for a musical style that fuses diverse genres such as R&B, funk, and rock.

The piece he released is a track included on his fifth album, CAOS, scheduled for release in October 2025.

Its distinctive sound—an inventive blend of rock and R&B highlighted by heavy guitars and drums—feels sensuous yet conveys a powerful resolve.

Interweaving the passion of risking everything for a loved one with a spirit of resistance that raises its voice against social injustice, this work seems like one you’ll find yourself drawn deeper into with every listen.
