Raye and Charlie Puth headline this week’s new music, with both artists dropping new albums alongside releases from Robyn, Courtney Barnett and Melanie Martinez.
Raye released her second studio album, This Music May Contain Hope, on Friday as she continues her This Tour May Contain New Music tour, which kicked off in January and runs through May. The 28-year-old dropped the album’s first single, “Click Clack Symphony,” featuring composer Hans Zimmer, on March 20. The British singer performed her hit single “Where Is My Husband!” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on Thursday.
Charlie Puth returned with his third studio album, Whatever’s Clever. The American singer-songwriter’s latest release follows his 2022 album Charlie. The 34-year-old told Jimmy Fallon about his impending fatherhood in October while promoting his single “Changes.” He and his wife, Brooke Sansone, welcomed a son, Jude, on March 13.
Robyn also returned with new music, her eighth studio album, Sexistential, marking her first major release since her 2018 album Honey. The 46-year-old will launch a tour for her album in June. The Swedish pop star is also set to join Harry Styles as a special guest on his upcoming tour, Together, Together.
