From Karol G to Stray Kids, Stella Lefty & More: Which New Music Release Is Your Favorite This Week? Vote!

Spanning everything from Latin rhythms and K-pop to country twang and hard-hitting rap, the opening week of August delivered an exceptional wave of fresh tracks, anchored by heavyweights like Karol G, Stray Kids, Stella Lefty, and several others.

Among the most anticipated drops is No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, the Colombian superstar’s striking new studio album arriving roughly a year after her acclaimed Tropicoqueta. The star-studded tracklist boasts high-profile collaborations with global icons Drake—a wonderful full-circle moment following his shoutout on “New Bestie” earlier this year—and Bruno Mars.

Meanwhile, K-pop powerhouses Stray Kids have returned with THIS & THAT, an engaging eight-track EP poised to extend the phenomenal boy band’s legacy of topping the Billboard 200 charts. Concurrently, Lefty capitalizes on the runaway success of her Billboard Hot 100 top-three smash “Boston” by unleashing her mesmerizing new single, “Lean In, Kiss Me.”

The musical landscape expanded even further this week with compelling releases from Alex Warren, who shared “Rescuer,” and Madonna, who joined forces with Kylie Minogue for a dreamy, pop-infused remix of “Love Sensation.” Additionally, robust new LPs from Role Model (Chuck Timely & The Hourglass), Pooh Shiesty (All Eyes on Shiest), and FLO (Therapy at the Club) anchor an already vibrant year for full-length albums.
