Coldplay have today premiered a special, extended Directors’ Cut video for ALL MY LOVE, the latest single from the band’s smash hit No. 1 album Moon Music.
Co-directed by award-winning directors Spike Jonze and Mary Wigmore, the stirring seven-minute short film celebrates the Hollywood icon Dick Van Dyke, 98 year-old star of classic movies like Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It was filmed at Van Dyke’s Malibu home, and features the legendary performer ruminating about age, family and love.
A shorter version of the music video will be released on Friday, 13 December, to mark the occasion of Dick Van Dyke’s 99th birthday.
Dick Van Dyke’s career has spanned more than 7 decades and earned him 5 Emmys, a Tony, a Grammy, a BAFTA, the SAG Lifetime Achievement Award, induction into in Television Hall of Fame, recognition as a “Disney Legend”, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the adoration of generations of fans.
A limited edition red 7-inch of ALL MY LOVE, is available to order here on recycled vinyl. The new single – the third to be taken from Moon Music – follows August’s iTunes chart-topping single WE PRAY – with Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna & TINI – and June’s double MTV VMAs-nominated feelslikeimfallinginlove, which reached Number 1 on both the UK’s airplay chart and the Official Big Top 40.
In October, Moon Music debuted at No. 1 on album charts around the world, including the US, where it became Coldplay’s fifth US No. 1 album (more than any other UK solo act or group this century) and in the UK, where it outsold the rest of the Top 40 combined.
Since kicking off in March 2022, the band’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour has sold over 12 million tickets across Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, making it the all-time highest attended tour by a group.
The band recently issued an update on the tour’s sustainability initiatives, revealing that, on a show-by-show comparison, the current tour has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50% reduction. More than 9 million trees have already been planted around the world (with a further million to be planted before the end of the year). Full info can be found at sustainability.coldplay.com.

December 6, 2024 (Los Angeles, CA) – Diamond-certified rapper & West Coast icon Roddy Ricch has released “Lonely Road (feat. Terrace Martin),” out today, alongside a cinematic companion visual, via Atlantic Records. Listen & Watch.
The song – which sees Ricch joining forces with acclaimed producer/artist Terrace Martin (Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg) with production from Turbo (Travis Scott, Gunna, Young Thug) – serves as a preview to Roddy’s forthcoming third studio album, THE NAVY ALBUM, due out in 2025. Pre-order for ‘THE NAVY ALBUM’ is available now.
Both the release of “Lonely Road” and the announcement of THE NAVY ALBUM, arrive ahead of the GRAMMY® winning superstar celebrating the 5 year anniversary of his blockbuster album, PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR BEING ANTISOCIAL, with a sold-out, hometown show set for tonight, December 6 at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Palladium.
* * *
With nearly 13B global streams to date, Roddy Ricch made his momentous, record-setting breakthrough with 2019’s 2x RIAA Platinum-certified, chart-topping album, PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR BEING ANTISOCIAL, highlighted by 11 RIAA certified hit singles including the 3x GRAMMY® Award-nominated, Diamond-certified #1 classic, “The Box,” joined by an equally successful official music video now approaching 1B. PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR BEING ANTISOCIAL and “The Box” both made chart history, dominating as the #1 album and #1 song for three non-consecutive weeks, with “The Box” further ruling atop Billboard’s “Hot 100” for 11 consecutive weeks. Ricch then scored his second straight #1, replacing himself atop the “Hot 100” with his feature on DaBaby’s 5x Platinum single, “Rockstar,” which spent seven non-consecutive weeks at the top of the overall chart.
Hailed by Pitchfork as “the West Coast’s premier melodic storyteller,” Ricch is undoubtedly an exceptional musical force, a fact made clear by the 2020 “Best Rap Performance” GRAMMY® Award triumph for Nipsey Hussle’s “Racks In The Middle (Feat. Roddy Ricch & Hit-Boy),” along with nominations for “Best Rap Song” (for “Racks In The Middle”) and a “Best Rap/Sung Performance” nod for Mustard’s smash single, “Ballin (Feat. Roddy Ricch).” “The Box” and “Rockstar” received each three nominations at the following year’s GRAMMY® Awards, including “Song of the Year” (“The Box”) and “Record of the Year” (“Rockstar”), with both named among the “Best Melodic Rap Performance” and “Best Rap Song” nominees. Additional honors include an American Music Award, two BET Hip Hop Awards, and two BET Awards (including “Album of the Year” for PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR BEING ANTISOCIAL).
2024’s critically acclaimed arrival of “Survivor’s Remorse” and “911” marked the commencement of a major new chapter for the GRAMMY® Award-winning superstar. Ricch’s landmark year was further highlighted with an unforgettable performance at Kendrick Lamar’s acclaimed The Pop Out: Ken & Friends Juneteenth event in Inglewood. Most recently, Roddy appeared on, “Dodger Blue (Feat. Wallie the Sensei, Siete7x, and Roddy Ricch),” the standout song from Kendrick Lamar’s latest album, GNX.
Now, with THE NAVY ALBUM and what promises to be a truly epic 2025, Roddy Ricch stakes his claim among the most consequential artists of his generation, affirming once again his singular mastery of melodic rap and emotionally charged lyrical storytelling.
“Hello Miss Johnson” is the new track from Jack Harlow, produced by his brother Clay Harlow and aksel arvid, out now via Generation Now/Atlantic Records.

The video was shot on CCTV cameras, documenting the courtship between Jack and Miss Johnson’s daughter.

Global icon ROSÉ has released a new single “number one girl’ – available now via Atlantic Records/THEBLACKLABEL alongside an official music video directed by ROSÉ.
“number one girl” (co-penned/produced by Amy Allen, D-Mile, Omer Fedi, Carter Lang, Bruno Mars & Dylan Wiggins) marks the second release off ROSÉ’s first studio album rosie, arriving December 6th and available for pre-order now (link). The 12-track collection marks ROSÉ’s most personal and candid release to date with her co-writing the project in its entirety.
The album’s lead single “APT.” with Bruno Mars has proven a worldwide sensation, debuting at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100, making ROSÉ the first female Korean artist to reach the top 10 of the chart. Meanwhile the single has held the #1 spot on the Billboard Global 200 chart for the past 4 weeks and has amassed over 1 billion global streams to date.
As a member of BLACKPINK, one of the best-selling girl groups of all time, ROSÉ has shattered records, performed on the most heralded stages, and amassed millions of fans around the world. On her own, the Korean-New Zealand superstar’s 2021 single “On The Ground” debuted at #1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart and became the highest-charting song by a female Korean artist on the Billboard Hot 100 (a record she has now since broken with single “APT.”). Simultaneously, ROSÉ has been an unstoppable force in fashion as global ambassador for renowned brands including Saint Laurent, Tiffany & Co, Rimowa and Puma. Her influence in music, fashion and philanthropy has proven her to be a testament to the growth of Korean influence in music and fashion on a global scale.
3x GRAMMY and 7x BRIT Award-winning global pop powerhouse Dua Lipa announces Dua LipaLive From The Royal Albert Hall. The new live album features a reimagined version of Radical Optimism performed in its entirety front-to-back, along with several of her previous hit songs, all accompanied by the 53-piece Heritage Orchestra conducted by Ben Foster, a 14-strong choir and her 7-piece band. The album will be released on December 6th ahead of her primetime concert special “An Evening With Dua Lipa,” to be broadcast Sunday, December 8th on ITV and Sunday, December 15th on CBS and streaming on Paramount+. Pre-save/pre-order Dua Lipa Live From The Royal Albert Hallhere.
“Getting to perform at The Royal Albert Hall was unlike anything I’ve ever done,” Dua shares. “For the longest time, I’ve had this idea to reimagine my music with an orchestra, and when I was making Radical Optimism, I was constantly thinking about the live element and how these songs would transform on stage, so when The Royal Albert Hall show came up, it presented itself as the perfect opportunity to not only reconstruct these songs, but also celebrate them in such a beautiful and intimate way. The experience was entirely thrilling and equally rewarding. It was a dream come true, and something I’ll always take with me.”
In addition to Dua’s one-night-only concert recorded at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall on October 17th, the album’s accompanying primetime special will be interspersed with intimate interviews, in which Dua reflects on the pivotal moments that have shaped her life and illustrious career. As she revisits personal moments, from the New York City trip that changed the course of her career, to her favorite holiday memories in London, Dua shares her thoughts and emotions in real time, giving audiences a glimpse into the woman behind the superstar.
The dazzling London show was critically acclaimed with rave reviews across Billboard, Variety, The Times, Daily Telegraph, London Standard and more, crowning Dua as “Britain’s reigning pop star” who gave a performance packed with “pure pop perfection,” in an “impressive one-off show,” which “displayed her talents in a new light.” The album features a surprise duet of “Cold Heart” with musical icon Elton John, as well as the debut live performances of “Dance The Night” from the Barbie soundtrack, “Maria,” “Anything For Love,” “End Of An Era” and many more from Dua’s latest chart-topping album Radical Optimism.
Following her electric set headlining Glastonbury’s 2024 Pyramid Stage and her triumphant Royal Albert Hall show, Dua has now embarked on her Radical Optimism World Tour, which will continue into 2025 and includes two shows at Wembley Stadium that sold out immediately.

TUNE-IN LIVE TO WATCH TONIGHT’S STADIUM SHOW IN SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL HERETONIGHT AT 11.30PM IRISH TIME
Today, LINKIN PARK—Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, Joe Hahn, Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain—proudly present their much-anticipated new album, FROM ZERO. Listen HEREvia Warner Records. Additionally available until November 21 only is the From Zero (Expanded Edition) digital deluxe album, featuring the full album plus live versions of three From Zero songs recorded in Los Angeles, London and Paris, along with 46 pages of imagery, handwritten lyrics. FROM ZERO marks the group’s first full-length offering since 2017, and officially launches the next era of LINKIN PARK.
To celebrate the release, LINKIN PARK will livestream Act 1 from tonight’s show at Allianz Park in São Paulo, Brazil. The livestream begins at 11.30pm Irish Time at lprk.co/saopaulo.
The band will return to the road for the second iteration of the From Zero World Tour in 2025. Canvasing the globe, the next leg commences on January 31 in Mexico City, MX, visits major markets around the world, and comes to a close on November 15 in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Special guests Queens of the Stone Age, Spiritbox, AFI, Architects, grandson, Jean Dawson, JPEGMAFIA, and PVRIS will join on select dates. Check out the full confirmed itinerary below, and get details on all pre-sales and on-sales at fromzero.linkinpark.com/tour.
Among many highlights, FROM ZERO features the new single “Two Faced.” On Wednesday, the band surprise-released the hard-hitting music video helmed by Hahn to accompany the song. Watch HERE. Holding nothing back, it reups the instantly recognizable elements of the band’s signature sound, tempering grainy distortion with chaotic turntable scratching, airtight rhymes, and a cathartic chorus. A gritty riff anchors the track as Shinoda deftly raps on the verses and Armstrong alternates between an arresting refrain and a jarring scream, “I can’t hear myself think.”
Elsewhere on the album, “Casualty” teems with unbridled aggression. A militant groove-laden guitar crunch seethes atop the breakneck-paced punk beat. Meanwhile, Shinoda and Armstrong lock into a fiery back-and-forth capped off by an unapologetic chant, “I won’t be your casualty.” Then, there’s “IGYEIH,” which hinges on the incendiary interplay of unpredictable instrumentation and undeniable vocals. The album concludes with a moment of stark honesty on “Good Things Go.” From the jump, Shinoda admits, “Feels like it’s rained in my head for a hundred days.” Awash in raw feeling, it crescendos towards one last epic exhale. Check out the full tracklisting below.
Adding to the release week celebrations, SiriusXM announced the return of LINKIN PARK Radio, an exclusive pop-up channel available starting today to their subscribers in car on channel 41 through November 17 and on the SiriusXM app through December 14. Next up, LINKIN PARK will officially air the live performance of “The Emptiness Machine” from Allianz Park in São Paulo during the 2024 Billboard Music Awards. Be sure to tune in on November 24.
LINKIN PARK ignited this season with “The Emptiness Machine.” It has exploded as the #1 rock song in the country and the biggest rock song of 2024. It made a rapid climb to #1 on both the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay Chart and Alternative Airplay Chart. In total, the band have scored a staggering 13 #1 entries on the latter chart (the second-most in history) with three in the last eighteen months. Thus far, “The Emptiness Machine” has gathered a quarter-of-a-billion global streams and counting. “Heavy Is The Crown” followed fast in the same path, and earlier this month the band delivered a scorching performance of the League of Legends Worlds anthem at the 2024 World Championship opening ceremony at the O2 Arena in London. The band set the final stage for FROM ZEROwith the Emily-led “Over Each Other,” which Revolver christened “an emotional rocker.”

Today, multi-platinum, 3x GRAMMY® Award-nominated, and Emmy® Award-winning rapper Cordae releases his highly anticipated third studio album, The Crossroads. The new album features production from Executive Producer Smoko Ono, as well as production from multi-platinum and award-winning hitmakers Bongo ByTheWay, Dem Jointz, Camper, BoogzDaBeast, FNZ, and more. Listen HERE.
The Crossroads arrives on the heels of “Syrup Sandwiches” (feat. Joey Bada$$), the fourth lead single released by Cordae ahead of today’s official album release. Previously, “Saturday Mornings” (feat. Lil Wayne), “Summer Drop” (feat. Anderson . Paak), and “Mad As Fuck” were released along with accompanying music videos. An official album trailer was also previously shared on Cordae’s YouTube channel last month. The Crossroads integrates the four lead singles into a cohesive 16-track album containing even more stellar collaborations from Juicy J, Ty Dolla $ign, Jordan Ward, Ravyn Lenae, and Kanye West.
Cordae’s inspiration for The Crossroads comes from his feelings of quite literally finding himself at a crossroads in his own life. Through the album, he conveys his conviction that one single decision doesn’t have the power to change everything, and that while there may be hard decisions to make, there is never truly a “wrong” choice.

Now You Know
Nov 14, 2024 – Mahalia returns, embracing her “Luvergirl” era with her lively, Bayka-featured single ‘Pick Up The Pace.’ This sultry track, woven with lush guitar and hypnotic bass, sees Mahalia calling out an emotionally unavailable love interest, urging him to keep up with her vibe. “There’s clearly something between us,” she says, “so let’s just move forward.”
While Afrobeats has been in the spotlight, Mahalia is tapping into her Afro-Caribbean roots, bringing fresh energy to dancehall and reggae. This collaboration with Jamaican artist Bayka, whose voice she calls “one of the maddest things I’ve ever heard,” is a reminder of the rich, rhythmic diversity that still pulses through the UK music scene. “I wanted to celebrate artists like Bayka—these incredible Jamaican voices—and give the UK a moment to reconnect with the dancehall and reggae that helped shape our sound,” she explains.
‘Pick Up The Pace’ comes over a year after her critically acclaimed second album IRL, which featured smooth, confident R&B exploring love, boundaries, and self-worth. Since IRL dropped, Mahalia has been traveling the world on her In Real Life tour, bringing her unique sound from Europe and North America to Australia.
Now, with ‘Pick Up The Pace,’ Mahalia is stepping into a fresh chapter. Known for music that dives into the ups and downs of romance, she’s ready to let loose and explore what love sounds and feels like on a lighter note. “I love love,” she shares, “but lately, I’m embracing the fun, unserious side of it all. There’s so much heaviness in the world, so I’m just trying to find those moments of joy and playfulness in my music.”
Mahalia’s twelve-year career has been marked by an Ed Sheeran co-sign, appearances with Adele, three MOBO awards, four BRIT nominations, and a Grammy nomination. With ‘Pick Up The Pace,’ she’s channeling all that experience into a joyous new sound, setting the tone for more bright and bold music on the horizon.
The Blessed Madonna has released new album track, ‘Brand New’ ft. James Vincent McMorrow & A-Trak — the latest taste of her long-awaited debut album, ‘Godspeed’.
Following hot on the heels of club anthem and album centrepiece, ‘Edge Of Saturday Night’ with Kylie and latest LP cut, ‘Secretariat’ ft. Shaun J. Wright & KON, ‘Brand New’ sees The Blessed Madonna join forces with Irish singer-songwriter James Vincent McMorrow and legendary DJ, turntablist and producer, A-Trak, for the first time.
“In a lot of ways ‘Brand New’ was the trickiest cut on the album”, explains The Blessed Madonna. “I felt like James’ voice and writing was an opportunity to strike a precarious balance between house and a certain kind of euphoric neo soul that you heard, particularly in the late eighties and early nineties. But also the gospel thread needed to be delicately stitching everything together. I was always thinking how would Weatherall have done this, or Hifi Sean or even Soul II Soul. It took about 40000 tries and at the last minute I dm’d A-Trak and said, ‘hey dude I know you’re busy but is there any chance you could do the scratches on this record?’. And the choir isn’t a choir. That’s another thing. It’s 3 voices stacked about 40 times. Credit where it’s due here to the genius patience that is Pat Alvarez for making my thousand part stack sound like 100 people. All the usual characters have their finger prints here. Hen. Jin Jin. Maria Hazell. TEED’s house stabs. We tried a million ideas and threw 999,999 of them out. And of course there’s me punching above my weight (budget): The strings are not real. They’re me playing them on a synthesizer and using a tremolo to make them sound more human. In a lot of ways I think this is my favourite song on the album and that is, after all the things that got us here, down to James. His brilliance. It is unmistakable and unmatched.”
Lifted from her 24-track debut LP, ‘Godspeed’, ‘Brand New’ was also debuted live at The Blessed Madonna’s album leak party at Smartbar in Chicago last month, where she was joined by A-Trak, Nikki Nair, Uffie, Jamie Principle, Shaun J. Wright & more.
