If you’re anything like us, we see an interesting headline during our daily scroll—pause to read it—but then keep scrolling without reading the actual story. So at the end of each week, we’re rounding up all the buzziest, news-worthy headlines you might have missed. Think of it like the “saved” feature on Instagram but for news instead of aesthetically pleasing photos.
#1
We’re Screaming
Florence and the Machine are summoning the spirit of Halloween with Everybody Scream, their sixth album arriving October 31. Led by a haunting title track co-written with Mitski and Idles’ Mark Bowen, the album promises 12 songs (plus deluxe “chamber versions”) steeped in eerie beauty and feral energy. With its spellbinding video and crimson-soaked theatrics, Everybody Scream marks Florence Welch’s most bewitching return yet.
#2
Doja’s On Her Way
Doja Cat is stepping into her pop era with Vie, her fourth studio album, arriving September 26. Teased in a Parisian-inspired video where she repeats “Je sais que tu es ma vie,” the project launches with the single “Jealous Type,” dropping August 21. With 80s flair, couture drama, and a tongue-in-cheek hotline stunt, Vie marks Doja’s most glamorous and most unapologetically pop-reinvention yet.
#3
A Matter of Time
Laufey isn’t just keeping time, she’s bending it. With A Matter of Time, the Grammy-winning jazz-pop enchantress follows up Bewitched by weaving dreamy orchestrations, sharp storytelling, and her signature blend of classical grace and modern wit. Backed by Spencer Stewart and Aaron Dessner, Laufey turns heartache and hope into a lush soundtrack that feels both timeless and brand new. Whether you’re a longtime resident of “Laufey Land” or just arriving, this record proves she’s not just preserving jazz traditions, she’s reinventing them for a new generation.
#4
Latin Icon Ricky Martin
Ricky Martin is about to make VMA history all over again. The global superstar will become the very first recipient of the Latin Icon Award at the 2025 MTV VMAs, a fitting tribute to more than four decades of chart-topping hits, barrier-breaking performances, and cultural influence. Marking 25 years since his electrifying, award-sweeping VMA debut, Martin’s return to the stage promises to be a full-circle celebration of the artist who helped bring Latin music to the global mainstream—and who still sets the standard for those following in his footsteps.
#5
New Earl Sweatshirt
Earl Sweatshirt just turned a cliché into a manifesto. His surprise album Live Laugh Love flips the kitschy phrase on its head, evolving from satire into one of his most personal and reflective projects yet. Across 10 tracks, Earl wrestles with fatherhood, legacy, and the rules that shape both art and life, all while pushing his sound into sharper, more demanding territory. With the haunting single “Tourmaline” leading the way and a Camp Flog Gnaw set on the horizon, Earl proves once again that challenging convention is his most consistent tradition.
