Gwen Stefani is spreading holiday cheer with a brand-new original song today. “Hot Cocoa” arrives at all digital retailers as the latest addition to her chart-topping holiday catalog. The track is one of two new songs featured on the newly released You Make It Feel Like Christmas (Deluxe Edition – 2025), available exclusively on Amazon.

The second new track, “Shake The Snow Globe,” debuted earlier this month as part of Amazon Music Original for the upcoming holiday comedy Oh. What. Fun, premiering globally on Prime Video December 3. Written, co-produced, and performed by Stefani, the song captures her signature playful energy and festive flair. Fans streaming on Amazon Music Unlimited can also view the music video for “Shake The Snow Globe,” directed by Mike Ho, directly through the app.

You Make It Feel Like Christmas first arrived in 2017, topping Billboard’s Top Seasonal Albums chart and showcasing a mix of six originals and six classic holiday tunes. The title track, a duet with Blake Shelton, quickly became a modern seasonal favorite. Stefani followed up in 2018 with a deluxe edition, adding five new songs, including originals like “Cheer For The Elves” and “Secret Santa,” co-written with Justin Tranter and busbee, alongside festive covers of classics such as “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town,” “Winter Wonderland,” and “Feliz Navidad” featuring Mon Laferte.

With today’s deluxe release, Stefani continues to blend nostalgia and contemporary pop for the holidays. “Hot Cocoa” adds to her growing collection of original seasonal music, combining her bright vocals with cozy, wintry production that evokes steaming mugs, twinkling lights, and festive cheer. Together with “Shake The Snow Globe,” the tracks reaffirm Stefani’s position as one of pop music’s most versatile and enduring voices, capable of making any season feel celebratory.

For fans old and new, the deluxe edition offers a fresh way to revisit Stefani’s holiday world. It’s a combination of playful originals, familiar classics, and the distinct personality Stefani brings to every note, making it a must-listen soundtrack for the season.

You Make It Feel Like Christmas (Deluxe Edition – 2025) is available now on vinyl here, and to stream here, while the new song “Hot Cocoa” is available to stream here.

NF is back in the ring. After the chart-dominating success of 2023’s Hope, the Michigan rapper returns today with Fear, a six-song EP that digs further into the psychic terrain he has been mapping for nearly a decade. The project arrives via NF Real Music and Capitol Music Group and immediately repositions him for another era of introspective, big-screen emotional intensity.

Fear pulls no punches out of the gate. The title track and closer Washed Up both received official videos today, continuing NF’s long-running fusion of cinematic world-building and autobiographical storytelling. The visuals connect directly to the dense lore that fans obsess over, with recurring motifs and callbacks that signal a deliberate step deeper into the universe he has built since his breakout in the mid-2010s.

Those callbacks extend to the EP’s cover, which depicts a stately mansion engulfed in flames. The image is an intentional echo of his 2015 album Mansion and has already sparked theories about whether Fear represents a confrontation with the emotional spaces he once locked away. The teasers leading up to release amassed more than 22 million views, proving his core audience remains one of the most engaged in contemporary hip hop.

Musically, Fear finds NF widening his circle without losing the internal focus that defines his work. Sorry features a guest turn from British pop powerhouse James Arthur, who brings a bruised melodic counterpoint to NF’s trademark tension. Who I Was pairs him with mgk for a collision of two artists who have built massive followings by refusing to fit clean genre lines. Rounding out the track list are Home, Give Me A Reason and the intense closer Washed Up.

Fear lands as NF’s first batch of new music since Hope, which topped Billboard’s Top Album Sales, Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts and debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. That record reaffirmed NF’s place as a singular voice in the mainstream. Clash Music praised Hope as a thrilling return, while NME highlighted the song Happy as a moment of brutal honesty in his ongoing mental health journey. Both the title track and Happy have since gone Gold.

The success of Hope carried into a massive world tour across 2023 and 2024, with NF selling out arenas globally while remaining largely absent from traditional press cycles. His refusal to play the social media game has become a core part of the mystique. Despite the quiet exterior, he remains one of the most consumed artists on the planet with more than 55 billion global streams, 62 RIAA certifications and over 1.25 million tickets sold. Billboard has dubbed him one of the world’s biggest rappers, while Forbes noted that his ascent is proof of what can be built outside the conventional industry playbook.

Fear is a continuation of that ethos. It is NF doing what he does best. He confronts the inner storms directly, turns those storms into massive hooks and presents the whole thing with the theatrical gravity of a blockbuster. The EP is out now on all platforms, with vinyl and limited signed CDs available through his online store. Listen to Fear here.

Glixen has had an eventful 2025, from touring to the release of their acclaimed EP Quiet Pleasures. Now, the band continues the momentum with their newest release, “Medicine Bow”.

Glixen

The Phoenix four-piece has made waves in the shoegaze scene since their inception in 2020. Stereogum described the band as “a crucial contributor to the ongoing American shoegaze renaissance.” They have also received praise from publications such as Alternative Press, Paste, and NME, who stated, “Just when you thought the shoegaze revival had reached its logical endpoint, along comes Glixen with the audacity to explode that notion.” They have continued to evolve their sound, working with producers such as Jack Endino (Nirvana) and Sonny DiPerry (My Bloody Valentine, DIIV). Fan favorites such as “lust” and “foreversoon” have emerged from the collaborations.

The band has had an extremely eventful 2025. They released their critically acclaimed EP Quiet Pleasures and hit the road on their first headlining tour across North America. Now, “Medicine Bow” has been revealed.

Medicine Bow

“Medicine Bow” is a deeper dive into the hard-hitting yet haunting sound. The lyrics are dreamy and introspective, sung in Aislinn Ritchie’s lulling voice.

“It’s a sense of urgency bound to the quiet yearning for self-comfort,” Glixen explains. “The song drifts between lucidity and a fever dream, where soft vulnerability meets slow-burning decay. The lead and rhythm guitars melt and unmeld in a hypnotic blur, mirroring the emotional push and pull at the heart of the track. With each refrain, ‘Medicine Bow’ becomes a reflection of that internal ache to hold on while letting go — a sonic unraveling that feels intimate and disoriented.”

“Medicine Bow” is available for streaming now and can be found here! 

Live

Glixen has supported acts such as Interpil, DIIV, Narrow Head, and Nothing in the past. Continuously touring, the group recently played Coachella and Reading & Leeds this year, marking their first time performing in Europe. After touring with acts such as Turnover, Panchiko, and Scowl, they are preparing for their next adventure.

Next month marks the beginning of their co-headline tour with Glare. On December 3, in El Paso, Texas, the tour begins. They will be traveling through cities such as Los Angeles, Seattle,  Vancouver, and more, before commencing on December 20 in Dallas, Texas. Then, Glixen will take the stage at Something In The Way Festival in Boston, Massachusetts in January and Outbreak Festival in Manchester, United Kingdom.

Kesha is getting festive ahead of schedule. The pop icon just dropped her fan-favorite cover of Lindsey Buckingham’s “Holiday Road” across all streaming platforms. Originally released last year as a Spotify-exclusive track, the holiday anthem is now available everywhere after racking up nearly 52 million streams.

Produced by longtime collaborator Zhone, the track became an unexpected hit during its initial run, climbing to No. 2 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. It marked the first time the 1983 original ever reached the top ten in any Billboard category.

Fans looking to add something special to their holiday collections can also snag the song’s first-ever vinyl release. Limited to 1,750 copies, the 7-inch will drop November 28 as part of Record Store Day Black Friday 2025. The B-side features “A Very Merry Christmas from Kesha,” a previously unreleased version of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” that first appeared on her YouTube channel back in 2010.

The release caps off a massive year for Kesha, who has been riding the wave of her chart-topping sixth album, . (PERIOD), and her sold-out Tits Out Tour. The tour has already hit major venues across North America and will continue into 2026 with dates in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and Europe.

Following previous releases and the announcement of her upcoming album, the Chicago artist Delaney Bailey has released her newest single, paired with a beautiful visualizer. Bailey will hit the road on November 14 to begin her first-ever headline tour, with support from This House is Creaking.

Concave

In October, Delaney Bailey announced her upcoming album, Concave, with the release of “Far Away”. Since then, the song has received praise from fans and publications, including Stereogum, which stated, “On the brilliant new single ‘Far Away’ from Delaney Bailey, the Chicago songwriter contemplates the absurdity of self-awareness and wisdom that comes with age. ‘From far away, aging makes me feel sick,’ she sings over a propulsive drumbeat. Her tone is wary but soft, sounding a little bit like Clairo.”

The album is set to release on January 21, 2026, via AWAL. It is available for pre-save/pre-order here!

Nightshade

In continuation of the anticipation for Concave, Bailey has released its latest offering, “Nightshade”.

The single features delicate riffs, a warming atmosphere, and soft vocals. It focuses on the topics of disordered eating and self-worth. Thoughtful and deep lyrics such as “Hunger’s not power / Your hands are shaking” work to exemplify this.

“‘Nightshade’ is a song about the hardships I’ve been through with eating in my life. Although it’s something that I’ve overcome in recent years and I’ve found the joy in eating again, it is something I have to actively remind myself of. At the age that I was dealing with these things, I didn’t necessarily mind my body. The way I look has honestly never been at the forefront of my mind, but the way my personality, my being, is perceived has always been front and center,” Bailey shares. “When I felt I had done something wrong, when I was nervous, when something made me sad, I would forget to eat. I began to make myself smaller, mentally (and in turn, physically), to be perfect in every situation I was in.”

“As I age, I have to remind myself that thinking way too much about myself is a privilege. Eating good food is a privilege. Self-care is a privilege. Making myself smaller was cowardice. Now is the time to seek out people and places that encourage me to be the biggest and brightest version of myself, and to be that, I had to learn to take care of myself first.”

The single comes with a black-and-white visualizer. The video includes a small countdown on the screen placed upon clips of someone sewing. The soft, grainy effect over the visuals mirrors the song’s atmosphere.

“Nightshade” is available for streaming and purchase here!

First Headline Tour

Beginning November 14, Bailey will begin her first headline tour across the Midwest. She will be traveling to five cities, including Chicago, Minneapolis, and Detroit. She will be bringing her new releases to the stage for a live audience to enjoy, with support from Chicago’s This House is Creaking.

MOTHICA, known for her dark alternative music and deep lyrics, had found a new label to call home. In celebration, she has unleashed “EVERGREEN MISERY” and its accompanying video.

Mothica Joins SharpTone

SharpTone Records is thrilled to announce MOTHICA joining their worldwide roster. The label took to social media to express their excitement and state, “Please welcome the one and only @mothica to the SharpTone family! Rather than immolating in the light of a flame, MOTHICA absorbs the heat and fashions the embers and ashes into anthems rooted in dark alternative soundscapes and hyper-charged by heart-wrenching metal catharsis. For the past decade, MOTHICA has woven her multi-sensory sonic cocoon around a diehard audience.”

MOTHICA spoke on the signing, “While writing this new era of music, I knew I was taking a step in a different sonic direction,” she explains. “The entire team at SharpTone Records really saw my vision with both the music and the visuals I create. I’m so excited to announce this partnership with SharpTone Records to elevate the next evolution of MOTHICA.”

Evergreen Misery

Alongside the new signing is a brand new single, “EVERGREEN MISERY”, along with its cinematic music video. The video is beautifully shot, showing MOTHICA participating in “Project EVERGREEN” at MOTHCORP Laboratories. While walking through the seemingly empty office, she is transported to an underground location surrounded by moths and cocoons. Lab technicians surround her, taking notes, dancing, and placing her on an examination table.

“Writing ‘Evergreen Misery’ was a journey full of every twist and turn you could imagine,” Mothica shares, pulling back the curtain to share details about the song’s redemptive factor with her dedicated fanbase. “I was a few months out of rehab and I needed to release this simmering anger and deep melancholy that I was numbing for so long. Getting swept up into the underbelly of the music industry took a huge toll on my mental health. When I checked into a 30-day treatment program, I was ready to leave music entirely. The behind the scenes stirs up a lot of animosity, envy and sorts of ugly emotions. I took a step back to focus on my recovery, and finally felt ready to reconnect with the pure feeling of writing music again.”

She continues, “The lyrics are a reflection of some energy vampires I’ve had in my life. People I let into my life who tried to borrow elements of my story as their own, knowing they didn’t experience the pain my art stems from. There’s a dark humor in that for me, this idea of ‘take what you want from me, my misery is bottomless’ — which is a bit dramatic, but that’s how it felt.”

Mothica finishes, “I knew I wanted to step into a heavier era with this next release, which my fans have deemed ‘Rockica’ with my releases like ‘Nocturnal,’ my Polyphia collab, or my Bring Me The Horizon remix. I grew up going to metalcore shows and it finally felt like the right time to pull from that side of myself. I love Nine Inch Nails, Sleep Token, Bad Omens, Wage War, Bring Me the Horizon, Evanescence, and so many other artists in the scene that combine cinematic synths, gritty guitars and big emotional hooks. Working with my producer Elliot Polokoff helped me carve out what this era sounds like, and what flavor of rock felt undeniably true for Mothica.”

EVERGREEN MISERY is available for streaming here!

Mothica

MOTHICA has made waves with her iconic sound. She has collaborated with Scream Queen, Polyphia, and Papa Roach and created a community through her fanbase with albums such as Blue Hour, NOCTURNAL, and Kissing Death. The latter, released in 2024, had received praise from many publications. Wonderland stated, “This raw, vulnerable, and deeply cathartic collection of tracks is paired with expansive, cinematic visuals,” while LADYGUNN hailed it as “an innovative audio/visual journey that delves into her intricate relationship with life, loss, and mental health.”

MOTHICA has leveraged her experience in art school and as a graphic designer to bring her to where she is now, keeping true to the D.I.Y. spirit. She powers everything from merch design to creative direction on photo/video shoots. With hundreds of millions of streams, tours with names such as Halestorm, and a community of fans built from the ground up, MOTHICA’s new era is sure to be more impactful than ever.

After recently signing to Century Media, As Everything Unfolds unleashed their newest single, “What You Wanted”. 

As Everything Unfolds

As Everything Unfolds has been making waves with their distinctive sound. They aspire to be unique and therefore ignore genre boundaries. This has worked out well for the band, amassing over 30 million streams and gaining three nominations for Heavy Music Awards, including Best Album of 2024.

What You Wanted

The band has released a brand new single in collaboration with Bury Tomorrow vocalist, Dani Winter-Bates. The song cycles between melodic verses and a catchy chorus, with heavier sections interwoven throughout.

The song was released alongside its music video, directed by Zak Pinchin. It showcases the vocalist lying upon an old TV, then takes the watcher through VHS-like scenes of the band performing and outdoor clips.

Vocalist Charlie Rolfe says, “Over the last two years, I have watched various people in my life struggle with addiction issues, mostly related to alcohol. It’s painful and difficult to watch your most beloved people in your life destroy themselves every single day, and not be able to help them. You find it frustrating not being able to help them, not being to do anything, and being angry at their lack of empathy for the pain they put you through every day.”

She continues, “I found a lot of relatable things in the 1980s film The Shining,which is famously seen as an allegory for alcoholism, with Jack’s family being concerned for his health, his well-being, seeing him in slow decline. His family are frustrated with the situation he put them in alongside being terrified of him when he is the worst version of himself. It made me realize that I was often frustrated and terrified of that person and felt like I was living in my own Overlook Hotel at times, trying to desperately save that person, but also sometimes the best thing to do is to just get out. I used this world as a creative vessel to tell my own story.”

“What You Wanted” is available for streaming and download here!

Live

The band has appeared at several iconic European festivals, including Download, Graspop, Rock for People, Resurrection, and Wacken Open Air. They have also toured extensively with bands including Electric Callboy, Enter Shikari, Skindred, Bury Tomorrow, Holding Absence, and more.

As Everything Unfolds will be hitting the road again, starting November 13 in Birmingham, UK. They will stop in cities such as London and Berlin before commencing in Cologne, DE on November 23. Full tour dates are found below.

Pop-rock standout LØLØ is stripping things back with her latest single “me with no shirt on.” The track peels away her usual bite and bravado to reveal something more fragile and exposed. Produced by Andrew Goldstein (blink-182, Tate McRae), the song dives into the messy headspace that follows unreturned affection, where self-doubt hits hardest and validation feels just out of reach.

“I wrote ‘me with no shirt on’ about that gut-wrenching feeling when you realize someone doesn’t feel the same way about you anymore,” LØLØ shared. “It really hurts when someone who was once obsessed with you couldn’t care less anymore. But ladies, take it from me, a half-naked selfie cannot save your relationship.”

The song arrives on the heels of her recent releases “american zombie” and “the devil wears converse,” continuing to expand the world she built on her debut album falling for robots and wishing I was one. LØLØ’s blend of vulnerability, humor, and pop-punk attitude has helped her carve out her own lane in modern alt-pop, earning praise from outlets like Kerrang!, PAPER, and Rock Sound.

With more music on the way, LØLØ’s proving she’s not slowing down anytime soon. Stream “me with no shirt on” and watch the music video now.

SPELLLING, aka Chystia Cabral, has released a brand new version of “Destiny Arrives” from her acclaimed 2025 album.

Portrait of My Heart

The experimental pop visionary, SPELLLING, released her fifth album, Portrait of My Heart, earlier this year. The album, containing “some of the most catchy indie pop to come out of the Bay Area this century” (Treble), has been incredibly well-received by fans and critics alike. It has received praise from many publications, including NPR Music, The Needle Drop, Brooklyn Vegan, Stereogum, San Francisco Chronicle, KQED, and PAPER Magazine, who stated,  “This album…isn’t a study, but a portrait — an interpretation of a person at a time and place. It’s an exploration of a heart — one that is breaking, beating, breathing life into the entire body.”

The album is available here!

Among the hard-hitting avant-pop songs is “Destiny Arrives”, which has now been reimagined.

Destiny Arrives

The new version of the mystical album staple features Weyes Blood, a project of Natalie Mering. Mering commented, “The strange fantastical universe Tia’s built under the moniker SPELLLING has always captivated me, and when she asked me to sing on ‘Destiny Arrives’ I was there for the ride.”

SPELLLING also commented on the collaboration, stating, “Weyes Blood has been a dream artist to collaborate with for a long time now. I’m so honored to have her timeless voice on this reimagined version of ‘Destiny Arrives.’ She stepped into the song so gracefully and added such an epic glow to the feeling of the song through her own lyrical contribution and very intimate interpretation of the song.”

“Destiny Arrives” is available here!
