Jisoo, Zayn, Khalid and More: Vote for Your Favorite New Music Release This Week

Fresh music lands across streaming platforms today, Friday, October 10, 2025. Leading the week’s releases is a striking collaboration between Jisoo of BLACKPINK and former One Direction star Zayn Malik.

Jisoo & Zayn — “Eyes Closed”

Their duet, “Eyes Closed,” is a sumptuous ballad that pairs Jisoo’s crystalline tone with Zayn’s emotive delivery. The song unfolds as a graceful, melancholic reflection on closing the door on old wounds to make room for new love, with sweeping production that highlights the two voices in tender counterpoint.

HAIM & Bon Iver — “Tie You Down”

Indie-pop veterans HAIM join forces with Bon Iver for “Tie You Down,” a collaboration that balances shimmering guitar textures with raw emotional honesty. Where Jisoo and Zayn sing about moving forward, HAIM and Justin Vernon explore the paradox of leaving a relationship even while attachment remains.

Other Notable Singles This Week

• Alemeda and Doechii deliver the fiery duet “Beat a B!tch Up.”
• A Boogie Wit da Hoodie samples Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” on his new post-breakup track, “Part of Me.”
