Happy music Monday! Will I ever release one of these on a Friday? I’m working on it I promise. But welcome back to another new music friday post where I write about and recommend the best songs that were released last week with an accompanying spotify playlist! Oh and I also released genre playlists last week so feel free to check those out if you’re interested in finding new songs/artists in a specific genre! Also feel free to give any of my playlists (or even my account) a follow so I know what you’re vibing with and to include more of that 🙂 Let’s get into it.

POP N BOPS

Physical: Dua Lipa

The perfect addition to any workout playlist, “Physical” by Dua Lipa will have you amped up and ready to run that extra mile to get your cardio in.

Back To It: Josie Dunne

It’s safe to say that Josie Dunne is “Back To It” as this is the first song she’s released that’s been on one of my playlists since my second new music friday. It’s good to have her back. She’s definitely one of my favorite up and coming artists and will be yours too.

TREAT YOURSELF: Meghan Trainor – Nice to Meet Ya (feat. Nicki Minaj), Workin’ On It (feat Lennon Stella & Sasha Sloan), After You (feat. AJ Mitchell)

I had no idea Megan Trainor was releasing a whole album last week but I’m glad I found it! All of these features are amazing! Some of them are combinations. never would’ve thought of but I’m glad they exist.
