Everything But the Girl — the prolific pop duo best known for their 1994 club hit “Missing” — will return on April 21st with Fuse, their first studio album in 24 years.

Caroline Polachek has announced Desire, I Want to Turn into You, her second solo album under her own name. It drops February 14th, 2023, and the former Chairlift singer is offering a preview with new single, “Welcome to My Island.” Polachek chose the album’s title to reflect two different impulses, as she explained in a new interview with Rolling Stone. “One, it can be read as being about the ‘you,’” she said. “We all know that feeling of falling in love, of wanting to obsessively learn from and become that person. But on the other hand, maybe desire is the thing you want to turn into itself.” No official tracklist has been released, but Desire, I Want to Turn into You reportedly features recent singles “Bunny Is a Rider,” “Billions,” and the Octobe...

DijahSB Announces New EP Living Simple, Shares “Khadijah”: Stream
Toronto rapper DijahSB has announced a new EP called Living Simple. The six-song project drops February 10th, while new single “Khadijah” is out now. Living Simple is tightly intertwined with Living Single. The EP’s name is a play on the ’90s sitcom’s title, while “Khadijah” is a reference to Queen Latifah’s character on the show, whom DijahSB’s mother loved so much that she named her child after them. Best of all is the project’s cover, which utilizes that nostalgic cartoon font. Check it out below. Understandably, the song “Khadijah” deals with the loneliness of living single, but the person Khadijah avoids self pity with a laid back, amiable beat. “I be at the crib like Khadijah/ Wondering if I will ever find somebody out here who’s a keeper,” the artist raps.
