Meghan Trainor – Still Don’t Care (Official Music Video)

Megan Trainor has a remarkable talent for turning the theme of self-esteem into pop.

Released in November 2025, this new single was created as a snappy response to online body criticism and body shaming.

As she herself said, it felt like “exposure therapy,” embodying a resolve to move past hurtful experiences and reclaim her true self.

Its sound—an ’80s-style synth paired with tight rhythms—is catchy yet powerful, and the addition of her family on backing vocals adds warmth.

As the lead track from her album “Toy With Me,” slated for release in April 2026, it’s also set to be performed on her North American tour starting in June of the same year.

Singing about the importance of freeing yourself from others’ gaze and loving who you are, this song is a rallying cry for every listener who hopes to regain confidence at different turning points in life.

Dream As One (from Avatar: Fire and Ash)

In November 2025, Miley Cyrus released a new song as the end-credit track for James Cameron’s epic Avatar: Fire and Ash.

Created alongside powerhouse producers like Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, the piece is a dreamy pop ballad woven with gentle synthesizers and strings.

Having lost her home in the 2018 wildfires, Cyrus resonated deeply with the themes of fire and rebirth, crafting a narrative that moves from loss to hope.

The song is a moving ode to love and solidarity, spanning from an intimacy like listening to each other’s heartbeats to a sweeping vision of overcoming hardship together and building a future.

Ms Banks – 4C (Official Music Video)

South London rapper Ms Banks released a new track in November 2025—a Black empowerment anthem that proudly celebrates her natural 4C hair.

Riding a dynamic beat that fuses drill and Afrobeats, she delivers razor-sharp wordplay that satirizes Western beauty standards while praising the natural beauty of Black women.

Serving as the lead single for her debut album, SOUTH LDN LOVER GIRL, slated for release in February 2026, this masterpiece powerfully embodies self-affirmation and community pride through the concrete symbol of hair texture.

FEARNF

NF – FEAR

NF, a rapper from Michigan who has been active since the 2010s.

The title track of his EP “FEAR,” released in November 2025, is a deeply personal work that personifies the way fear and anxiety creep into his life.

With candid lyrics that confront mental health struggles such as OCD and anxiety disorders, a dynamic sound that evolves from quiet piano to roaring intensity, and a structure where rap intersects with sung melodies, the piece achieves a cinematic and dramatic finish.

It feels like a new turning point in his career—a song that channels the will to rise while battling the scars of the past.

WHO I WASNF, mgk

NF, mgk – WHO I WAS (Audio)

Rapper NF from Michigan and Machine Gun Kelly, who made a striking shift from hip-hop to pop-punk, teamed up for a collaborative track in November 2025.

The song, included on the EP “FEAR,” is a weighty cut that uses imagery of ash and flame to candidly portray the agony of clinging to one’s past self while being unable to break free.

NF lays bare his struggles with his father’s death and his faith, while Kelly confesses the pain of losing a close friend and the regret over a broken engagement.

Their interwoven confessions create a profound resonance.

Even as they recognize self-destructive patterns, a fear of being unable to protect the people they love runs through the entire track, stirring the listener.

The cinematic beat and restrained low end deliver a sense of both confinement and scale.

Rising country-rock talent Nate Smith, who bounced back from California wildfires, teams up with Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard on a November 2025 collaboration—a rousing party anthem built on the theme that the real fun starts after midnight.

Celebrating the nighttime rush of hanging with friends—playing beer pong around a campfire—the track shines with muscular guitar riffs and a sing-along hook.

The story that Hubbard wrote the song and Smith loved it so much he directly asked, “I want you to sing on it, too,” speaks to their mutual respect.

Capturing the liberating spirit of the weekend in sound, this is a perfect pick for anyone who wants to feel that live-show unity.

Oliver Tree – Joyride (Official Music Video)

Oliver Tree, known for his striking look with a bowl cut, tracksuit, and kick scooter, is back.

Released in November 2025, this track is the second single from his fourth album, “Love You Madly, Hate You Badly,” his first in about two years.

Built on a UK drum’n’bass-style rapid breakbeat, it ambitiously fuses boom-bap-inspired rap with an American rock-flavored chorus, carrying a message about embracing life’s chaos and moving forward.

Reportedly crafted in a hotel room while traveling through 80 countries, the song strongly reflects his drive to connect people through music across genres and borders.

Highly recommended if you’re feeling the urge to break free from the turbulence of everyday life.
