Welcome to New Music Friday! This week brings an absolutely stacked lineup of releases spanning pop, hip-hop, rock, and everything in between. Whether you’re looking for chart-topping bangers or deep album cuts to get lost in, July 24, 2026 has something special for every listener.
Charli XCX continues her reign as pop’s most innovative force with “Music, Fashion, Film”, a conceptual triumph that blurs the lines between artistic mediums. Tyla follows up her meteoric rise with “A*Pop”, a vibrant celebration of Afro-pop fusion that’s already dominating global playlists. Willow ventures into experimental territory with “The Thread”, weaving together alternative rock and introspective lyricism in her most ambitious work yet. Baby Queen delivers raw emotional honesty on “I Hope You Don’t Remember Me”, a devastatingly beautiful collection of bedroom pop anthems. Ian Sweet embraces vulnerability and texture on “Shiverstruck”, crafting indie rock soundscapes that feel both intimate and expansive.
As always, the entire list of new albums released today, Friday, July 24, 2026 is below in no particular order. My most anticipated albums are in bold.
