Kehlani celebrates her birthday by releasing her self-titled album. The Kid LAROI reissues his most personal album yet. Here’s a list of singles/albums that released this week.
Foo Fighters Your Favorite Toy
Foo Fighters’ 12th album Your Favorite Toy is the rockers’ first release since the sudden death of longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins and Dave Grohl’s mother, leading the remaining Fighters to channel their heartbreak and grief into a cathartic record that continues to impress. Grohl promised a record that “feels new” – a fresh chapter in the aftermath of loss.
