Vampire Weekend founding member Rostam teamed up with Clairo on “Hardy,” a standout selection from his new American Stories album, while Jorja Smith tapped into basement club energy with “What’s Done Is Done.” And Lenny Tavárez momentarily traded his reggaetonero persona for a cumbia-infused salsa number in “Pa’ Lo Bonito.”
This New Music Friday also delivered new singles from Becky G (“EPA”), Skilla Baby (“GYSM”), Kameron Marlowe (“Running”), Paul Wall (“Elbow Room”), Maren Morris (“Parachute”) Shakira and Burna Boy (“Dai Dai”), Little Big Town (“Hey There Sunshine”), Dan + Shay (“Young”), Miranda Lambert (“Crisco”) and Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran (“Repeat It”).
