JISOO, Zayn, Khalid & More: Which Is Your Favorite New Music Release This Week? Vote!

New music is dropping like autumn leaves this week, with releases from JISOO of BLACKPINK and Zayn Malik, Khalid and more artists hitting streaming services Friday (Oct. 10).

Starting with “Eyes Closed,” one of the world’s biggest former boy band stars teamed up with one-fourth of the hottest K-pop girl group on the planet. The lush ballad finds JISOO and Malik blending their distinct voices while delivering emotional lyrics about letting the past go for the sake of new love.

HAIM and Bon Iver also showed up with a perfectly matched collaboration, combining their respective powers to cook up the ultimate indie-rock creation. “Tie You Down,” however, is thematically opposed to JISOO and Malik’s duet, with the Haim sisters and Justin Vernon instead singing about letting go of a current relationship even though they’re still in love.

Other all-star collaborations this week include Gorillaz tapping Trueno and Proof for new single “The Manifesto,” as well as Alemeda and Doechii teaming up for fiery track “Beat a B!tch Up.” A Boogie Wit da Hoodie dropped a new song as well, interpolating Mariah Carey’s iconic hit “We Belong Together” in his post-breakup anthem “Part of Me.”

As far as new albums go, Khalid leads the charge with After the Sun Goes Down. The project comes just a little over a year after the R&B star released Sincerely, before which he took five years to follow up 2019’s Free Spirit.
