Happy - EP Album ∙ K-Pop ∙ 2024 JIN In November 2024, five months after his exit from mandatory military service, singer Kim Seok-jin, aka JIN, became the last of BTS’s seven members to release a solo project.   Happy   is a six-track EP from BTS’s eldest, a tenor known for his smooth vocals and warm, sometimes goofy persona. As with many BTS tracks—both solo and group—the six songs on   Happy   are designed as sources of comfort for world-weary listeners looking for a “Dynamite”-level kick-start to, or a “Spring Day”-like reassurance in, their daily routines. “I’ll Be There,” a rockabilly pop-rock track that has JIN promising listeners he will always sing for them, falls into the former category, while the sweet ballad “I will come to you” veers closer to the hopeful yearning of the latter (“When the warm spring breeze blows/I’ll go to you”). Notable collaborators on   Happy   include Gary Barlow, the lead singer and primary songwriter of English rock band Take That. Barlow co-produce

Cosa Nuestra Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Rauw Alejandro Operating at an exceptionally high level in the past few years made Rauw Alejandro a bona fide Latin music superstar. His proverbial star shone brightly on 2023’s   SATURNO   and the corresponding   PLAYA SATURNO , each showing how innovative the one-time R&B reggaetonero had become. Given the retro-futurist musical vision executed on that pair of projects, his decision to open his subsequent album   Cosa Nuestra   with the Afro-Cuban song stylings of its title track feels all the more bold in intention. Indeed, just as he’s explored and expanded upon sounds beyond the reggaetón and trap that earned him early acclaim, he appears eager to broaden and mature further at this notable stage in his career. Those concerned that   Cosa Nuestra   would prove a strictly old-school affair have no need to worry. Apart from a fairly faithful rendition of salsa romántica staple “Tú Con Él”—its lyrical theme echoing the romantic ones he reg

Sli'merre 2 Album ∙ Rap ∙ 2024 Young Nudy When Young Nudy and Pi’erre Bourne dropped   Sli’merre   back in 2019, they recruited superstars like 21 Savage, Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, and Lil Uzi Vert to help prop up their psychedelic, red-eyed collaborative project. On the 2024 sequel, though, the duo opt to mostly handle things themselves, with Nudy riding high off the success of his 2023 album   Gumbo   and Pi’erre in a similar boat following his decision to release some of his rarest snippets in an EP titled   Grails . With a sole feature from BabyDrill,   Sli’merre 2   is entirely centered on Nudy’s flow and the way he wraps himself in the warm, synth- and bass-heavy beats from Pi’erre. The Atlanta-born rapper remains as defiantly playful as ever, dedicating an entire track entitled “Money” to “trying to break” his bank account, and another that finds him explaining how little he worries by invoking the age-old saying of “Hakuna Matata.” As is always the case when Young Nudy a

  Reboot II Album ∙ Country ∙ 2024 Brooks & Dunn Few acts have influenced country music like Brooks & Dunn. The best-selling duo in the genre’s history, Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn helped define the ’90s country sound with landmark albums like their 1991 debut   Brand New Man   and 1993’s   Hard Workin’ Man . It’s fitting, then, that the iconic duo would round up some of country and Americana music’s best and brightest artists for this collaborative record, which serves as a sequel to 2019’s   Reboot . Where the first   Reboot   revisited the duo’s biggest hits,   Reboot II   lets featured artists—including Lainey Wilson, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, The Cadillac Three, and more—choose deeper cuts, offering a fuller glimpse of the sheer breadth of the pair’s influence. Brooks tells Apple Music that compiling the project was loose and playful, with each artist free to conceive their track however they chose. “It's just turning everybody loose,” Brooks says. “Bring your own ba

The Last Doll Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024 Kash Doll “Ain’t no bitch from the D that got more motion than me,” Kash Doll boasts on “Nothin New” over a classic Helluva beat, and you’d be hard-pressed to spot the lie. On her second studio album, the reigning queen of Detroit rap makes it look easy, dropping heater after heater about spending your rent at the nail salon or wearing your salary on her neck. Listeners of a certain age will recognize samples of 2000s classics: She flips Cam’ron’s “Oh Boy” into a balmy love song on “Baby Boy,” recruits Chicago’s Tink to riff on Lil Wayne’s “Comfortable” on “Comfy,” and slows down a Kanye West beat circa 2010 on “POWER,” which includes the devastating burn, “Ain’t that a bitch? You was pandemic rich/That’s why you screaming, ‘Bring Trump back!’” Sweet moments crop up amid the A-1 smack talk, most touchingly on “Klarity,” a love song to her daughter born earlier in the year.

The Crossroads Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024 Cordae From the outside, Cordae has a good life: He’s earned a handful of gold plaques and collaborated with the likes of Lil Wayne and Stevie Wonder. But with his third album   The Crossroads , he’s attempting to find balance between enjoying the spoils of his success and staying grounded. He’s boastful and braggadocious on “Mad as F*ck” and “Back on the Road” (which includes one of the album’s two Lil Wayne features), but he never lets his success lead him too far from what’s important to him. He admits to buying a house in Boca Raton, Florida, since Miami homes were too expensive, and recalls memories of working at a TGI Friday’s restaurant and growing up around violence. But he’s arguably at his best when he’s waxing poetic about his family: “06 dreamin” honors his mom’s musical pursuits on shows like   American Idol   and   Making the Band , “Shai Afeni” is a heartfelt ode to his newborn daughter, and “Now You Know” mourns the loss of his
