February came through when it came to the new music releases. From singles to albums, every week had a banger or bop we know we’ll be bumping to long into the year. So, our expectations for March are kinda high, and so far, it’s been delivering. From major album drops to anticipated comebacks, the playlists have new company. We collected our favorites below.
ZOMBIEBOY – LADY GAGA
The way Gaga came through with the 70s and 80s productions and Bowie and Prince references. It’s not the dark pop album some thought it would be, but more of a refined early years Gaga that delivers some of her most compelling lyrics to date. The album has its bops, that’s for sure.
LIKE JENNIE – JENNIE
JENNIE’s debut album explores a variety of genres and showcases the K-pop star’s story in her own words. This is an album from an artist who loves to explore her musicality.
SWEET DREAMS – J-HOPE AND MIGUEL
TikTok heard it first, and the full release is giving a pop and R&B serenade that captures J-Hope’s sincere desire to love and be loved.
ANXIETY – DOECHII
After posting this on YouTube years ago and recently going viral on TikTok, Doechii finally dropped the official version of her remix of Somebody I Used To Know, and it’s a pure vibe. The way she says “anxiety” tickles the ears so right.
HANGGANG SA MAGSAWA – MRLD
mrld’s debut album sounds exactly like you think it does. Brb, just going to get on our feels while the LP plays in the background.
TUMESTING KA – COSTA CASHMAN
With that West Coast bounce and the rapper’s signature 808 Cash drums, Tumesting Ka hits with the energy of someone who knows exactly where he’s headed. The track makes one thing clear: he’s not here to play, he’s here to set the tone.
YUMI & THE APOCALYPSE – SOS
Serving as the first single for their upcoming studio album, Yumi & The Apocalypse blends old, familiar sounds with new, experimental production for a track on going through a graceful breakup.
PA-PA-PA-PALABAN – G22
G22 took a dip in the diva hot springs and came out as even bigger baddies than before. We’re eating this new era up.
HIGH HORSE – NMIXX
Okay variety. Not what we thought we would get from the girl group, but it’s part of NMIXX’s DNA to surprise us.
MGA KAIBIGAN – NOAH ALEJANDRE
A melancholic musing on how friendship changes over time, the song pays tribute to the platonic relationships that we leave behind as we grow and pursue our individual paths. The track captures the bittersweet truth of how life’s natural progression often leads to parting ways with the people who once meant everything.
BIDA – JAYDA
Jayda and a power ballad will always give. We’re right there with her feeling her feels.
SUGARCOAT – ALEXA
If there’s one thing we learned from AleXa’s debut English album, it’s that pop-rock is her genre. Just listen to the title track that delves into themes of honesty, regret, and reconciliation and you’ll see why.
MAGIC CLOCK – F5VE
The J-pop girl group giving us another fun and catchy jam with a concept that feels so early 2010s.
GONE GIRL – NERIAH
This heartbreak anthem isn’t just a typical breakup anthem, it’s a warning. With a racing beat and lyrics that cut deep, this track turns heartbreak into the ultimate power move.
