Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Joe Goddard, Neptunes

Each track on the electronic composer and Hot Chip leader’s debut EP together has a unique rhythmic texture, with the constant theme being a wall of bass that transports you to a celestial space.

New Order, Brotherhood [Definitive Edition]

With one side dedicated to icy compu-disco and the other tied to the band’s beyond-punk origin story, this expanded reissue brings new order to the 1986 curio with live recordings, remixes, and more.

Father John Misty, Mahashmashana

Josh Tillman focuses his lens on death on his darkly comedic sixth album as eclectic instrumentation continues to buttress his folky chamber pop beyond ’70s pastiche.

Lizzo is having a very good year.

While the “Juice” star generated social media ire over the weekend with a tweet lashing out at music critics, Lizzo continues to rack up big wins with the reveal that he’s making her big-screen live action debut.

According to Deadline, she’ll join Cardi B, Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, Julia Stiles, and more in Hustlers, the upcoming feature inspired by a 2015 New York Magazine article by Jessica Pressler following a crew of ex-strippers who team up to get revenge on their creepy Wall Street clients.

It will be Lizzo’s second big-screen role, following a vocal performance in the forthcoming animated musical UglyDolls. Hustlers is currently filming in New York City with a scheduled release date of September 13.

In the meantime, the singer and her flute are twerking across America on the Cuz I Love You Too Tour. See details below.
