SB19’s PABLO heads in the right direction with new song “AKALA”
The sonically captivating track marks another collaboration with his real-life brother Josue of Radkidz, who also co-produced viral hits “Determinado” and “Gento”
After championing the resurgence of the rap-rock genre with the release of “Determinado” a few weeks ago, SB19’s PABLO continues to exceed expectations with another banger that doesn’t sound quite like anything he has released so far.
On “AKALA,” the P-Pop star drops a hard-hitting track that blends hip-hop sensibilities with trap beats and atmospheric production. Sonically captivating and heartfelt, PABLO surprises at nearly every turn with a song that hints at a new level of creative inspiration—songwriting and production-wise.
The track also marks another collaboration with his brother Josue of Radkidz, who is also responsible for co-producing his previously released track “Determinado,” and SB19’s viral smash “Gento.”
PABLO, on the other hand, brought improvements in structural developments and dynamics and penned the majority of the lyrics. He shares, “I added some singing parts and a hook and gave the song a resolution in terms of musical arrangement. We wanted it to be a song that’s easy to listen to and sing along to, just like how it is when friends gather and sing together.”
According to PABLO, “AKALA” was conceived during the pandemic when Josue had him listen to one of his beats with a partially written verse about finding escape in getting wasted. While both of them have different perspectives about alcohol consumption, the SB19 leader and main rapper found it intriguing and interesting enough to revisit the track and improve some parts of it.
“Even though we have different practices in terms of drinking, we agree on the idea that alcohol is not the answer to problems,” the talented multi-hyphenate explains. “I asked him if I could also write my verse in the song and tweak some parts, and he agreed. I didn’t want the song to just be about getting wasted, so I thought of a way to introduce my perspective through rearranging the letters of ‘alak’ and that’s how ‘Akala’ materialized. My mother also pitched in a line in the song and it made more sense.”
The breakout artist behind La Luna sums it all up: “Everything that I have released so far features intense and heavy instrumentation, but ‘Akala’ follows a completely different direction this time around. It has a more laid-back, dreamy vibe to it.”
PABLO’s “AKALA” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment.

ATARASHII GAKKO! SHARE LATEST OFFERING“TORYANSE”ALONGSIDE INCREDIBLE MUSIC VIDEO

“Please inject this chaotic Japanese idol group straight into my veins.” - i-D
“Whatever ATARASHII GAKKO! are doing next, we’re listening.” - The Fader
“If you have yet to come across the J-pop group Atarashii Gakko!, you’re missing out.” - Hypebae
Tokyo-based and wildly special four-girl progressive pop-group ATARASHII GAKKO!unveil their latest single “Toryanse '' via 88rising. Stream “Toryanse” HERE and watch the accompanying music video HERE.
“Toryanse” is an infectious, dance-inducing track that begins with rhythmic chanting before ushering in a heavy percussive beat. In Japanese culture, “Toryanse'' is a popular children’s song about crossing the street and is often played at crosswalks to signal when it is safe to walk. Playing on the classic nursery rhyme, ATARASHII GAKKO! is at a crossroads - literally, figuratively - and sing about powering through life’s trials and tribulations one step at a time. The accompanying, colorful, high-octane music video pays homage to elements of Japanese youth culture and ends with an epic dance circle.
The group reflected on the song, “Toryanse is a song that combines playful and nostalgic lyrics from Japanese nursery rhymes with vibrant beats of Brazilian phonk. To the four of us, this song reflects the joy and pride growing up in Japan. Come dance with us!”
The new music follows on the heels of a highly successful year full of many firsts for the group. Last October, they unveiled “Tokyo Calling,” a reflective single about the harsh monotony of daily life in Tokyo which opens with a doomsday-like alarm. It was met with critical acclaim upon release and ATARASHII GAKKO! made their US late-night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with the song (watch HERE). The group also showcased their inimitable performance style on their first worldwide SEISHUN Tour, which sold out completely in the U.S., and at music festivals like Mexico City’s Corona Capital Festival and 88rising’s New York and Los Angeles iterations of the Head In The Clouds Music & Arts Festival. This year ATARASHII GAKKO! plays their first-ever Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival with sets on Sunday, April 14 and 21.
ATARASHII GAKKO! (literally meaning “new school” in Japanese) are a group of four young women who are redefining what it means to be a girl group. While most J-Pop female idol groups are known for their squeaky high voices, perfectly synchronized dance moves, feigned images of purity and innocence, and an excessive drive to always be kawaii (cute), AG! isn’t into any of that. They wear sailor-fuku (sailor suits) uniforms in a style that were worn by Japanese students back in the 70s and 80s with long skirts and pulled-up socks, and staunchly refuse to be objectified. Their aggressive and expressive dance moves, which they choreograph themselves, are a hybrid of the energy of Japanese butoh dance, heavy metal headbanging, and hip-hop street dancing. Musically, AG! brings together elements of modern J-Pop, Showa-era kayokyoku, rap, punk, dance music, but it would be pointless to try to categorize them in any genre.

Paul Russell reminds us to smile on new track “Say Cheese”
New album, ‘Everything I Thought It Was’ to be released on March 15th
Pre-order here
Today, rising rapper singer-songwriter Paul Russell is sharing new track “Say Cheese” out now via Arista Records. The official video will make its broadcast premiere on Wednesday, January 31st across MTV Live, mtvU, MTV’s Biggest Pop and the Paramount Times Square billboards.
Russell’s signature feel good drive is written all over this one. On the inspiration behind it, he shares, “I wrote ‘Say Cheese’ on my birthday, a couple weeks after I quit my job and started traveling the world as a full-time artist. The song is meant to feel like a celebration - of life and of the fact that anything can happen. Take more photos so you can treasure those moments forever. So, ‘Say Cheese!’”
“Say Cheese” follows Russell’s highly acclaimed track “Lil Boo Thang'' which Billboard raved, “it is impossible to sit still when this infectious ditty comes on” and selected it on their 100 Best Songs of 2023: Staff Picks list. The song has been streamed over 250 million times globally, currently sits in the Top Twenty on Billboard’s Hot 100 and has been performed live across the world including appearances on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, The Today Show, Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve, France's NRJ Music Awards and more. On the radio end, the song landed at an impressive No. 5 at Top 40 Radio and was the No. 3 most played song across all radio formats in 2023. In the words of PopDust, “the Ivy League grad now has a hit on the Billboard charts and a career that’s taking off.”
Paul Russell’s “Say Cheese” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment/Columbia Records. Watch the lyric video here.
ABOUT PAUL RUSSELL
You’ve never met or heard anybody quite like Paul Russell. As a kid, the Dallas, TX native learned how to wail on trumpet in between spitting bars during lunchroom battle-raps and later crooning over ukulele (like the human equivalent of the dopest playlist you’ve ever heard!). His musical DNA is just as wildly dynamic as his personality is. During his time at Cornell University, he often DJ-ed at parties. As such, he knows how to get a party popping. A wide swath of inspirations—from Anderson .Paak and OutKast to Louis Armstrong—impacted his own creative trajectory. He gained traction with a series of early uploads and went viral a few times (even fooling the internet into thinking he had a Drake feature on the way once—If you’re reading this, Drizzy, get at him).
Settling down in Los Angeles, he released the independent anthem “Hallelujah” followed by “Ms. Poli Sci,” which generated over 37 million overall streams to date. He best describes his boisterous rhythms, ecstatic hooks, and buffet of R&B, funk, pop, and hip-hop as “cookout music you listen to outside with a bunch of friends.” That holds true on his Arista Records debut single “Lil Boo Thang.” Built around an interpolation of “Best of My Love” by The Emotions, it lit up TikTok and Instagram to the tune of tens of millions of views. He effectively delivered “Lil Boo Thang'' as the perfect soundtrack to any and all good times. Skyrocketing right out of the gate and has been streamed over 250 million times globally. Now, Paul is kicking off the year right with “Say Cheese”. Beyond his status as a bona fide breakout star, Paul Russell is about to be your new best friend.

Watch Mitski’s La Blogothèque Performance Of “I’m Your Man”
Additional The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We Shows Added To 2024 Tour
(Photo credit: Ebru Yildiz) Download image here.
“The best record of [Mitski’s] career” — Wall Street Journal, “Best Music of 2023”
“Mitski is a master storyteller — able to make music with a cinematic scope and novelist’s eye for detail” — Rolling Stone, #7 in “The 100 Best Albums of 2023”
“[Mitski’s] animist imagery is more vivid than ever on The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We.”
— Pitchfork, “The 50 Best Albums of 2023”
“Quiet and exacting, it’s rare to find songs that are so viscerally upsetting yet so compellingly relistenable. Mitski manages both here, and in the process has made a true stunner.”
— Stereogum, #4 in “The 50 Best Albums of 2023”
Mitski unveils a short film for La Blogothèque of “I’m Your Man,” a standout song from her new album, The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We. Filmed in Paris and directed by Aelred Nils, the performance sees Mitski wandering the halls of a hundred-year old concert hall while playing an acoustic rendition of “I’m Your Man,” adding a haunting aura to what FADER calls “the tragic crux of The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We.”
Watch Mitski’s La Blogothèque Performance
Last week, Mitski announced a lengthy fall tour in support of The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We. Due to demand, Mitski has added additional concerts, including a performance with Alvvays at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD, a third date at The Fox Theatre in Atlanta, GA, and a second date at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA. General on-sale for all newly announced tour dates is Friday, Jan. 26 at 10AM local time, and can be purchased here.
As Billboard hailed The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We as “all-out gorgeous, a studio masterclass” and Stereogum declared it is “Mitski’s most intricate, widescreen album to date,” the album garnered widespread praise upon its release, and made a huge splash in the best of the year lists. It was named a top 10 album of 2023 by Brooklyn Vegan (#1), NYLON (#2), Exclaim! (#2), Stereogum (#4), The Guardian (#5), Toronto Star (#6), Rolling Stone (#7), Sound Opinions (#7), Paste (#8), Consequence (#9), Entertainment Weekly (#10), and more.
On top of the album’s success, The Land’s “My Love Mine All Mine,” a “slow, moony ballad that sounds unlike anything else on the charts” (New York Times), has quickly become one of the most popular and streamed songs in the world (+750million streams since release 4 months ago). It’s peaked as the #2 most streamed song in the world on Spotify and #26 on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts (now in its 15th week on the Chart), in addition to holding the #1 spot on the Billboard TikTok Top 50 chart for a record-breaking five weeks. Additionally, “My Love Mine All Mine” has just debuted at #40 at US Top 40 radio. “It’s a perfect snapshot of [Mitski’s] wistful craftsmanship—tender-hearted and sharp-toothed” (Pitchfork).
In Southeast Asia “My Love Mine All Mine” has resonated profoundly with local audiences, being the most streamed track for Mitski in the region. Dominating across multiple fronts, from commanding and sustaining positions on various streaming platform charts to topping local radio charts, the song has left an indelible mark in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, further underscores the artist’s growing appeal in these countries.

James Arthur releases fifth studio album, Bitter Sweet Love
Includes tracks ‘A Year Ago’, ‘Blindside’, ‘Just Us’, Homecoming’, ‘Sleepwalking’ & Bitter Sweet Love
Brit Billion-certified artist James Arthur today releases his fifth studio album Bitter Sweet Love on Columbia Records.
Featuring superb offerings in ‘A Year Ago’, ‘Blindside’, ‘Just Us’, Homecoming’, ‘Sleepwalking’ & the album’s upbeat title track Bitter Sweet Love, the new record is James back to his very best, producing thirteen bites of world class music.
The singles have been lighting up the airwaves over the past few months, and this past weekend saw James as a guest on Sunday Brunch, with an appearance on Michael McIntyre’s Big Show on BBC 1 this Saturday. All the action follows a series of in-store performances across the UK this week that saw James showcase stunning acoustic sets to fervent fans.
James began sessions with different producers to see who could click with his vision. His final stop was in L.A. withSteve Solomon, with whom he co-wrote his 2016 megahit ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’. Back in Britain, James attempted to write with more producers, but none came close to his bond with Steve, who flew over to finish the album at Miloco Studios in South London last summer, and produce a mature body of work, full of depth and oozing the impeccable songwriting quality that has defined James’s esteemed career to date.
2024 will also see a major world tour, in which multiple dates including UK arenas, sold out instantly, including London’s Wembley Arena, with The O2 now added. This was then followed by the announcement of a massive homecoming show at Middlesborough’s Riverside Stadium on Saturday 8th June 2024. This will be James’ biggest headline show to date and will see him joined by special guests McFly and Lauran Hibberd.
James is one of the world’s biggest streaming artists, with over 38 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone. James has scored 4 top 10 albums, with 2016’s Back From The Edge hitting the Number 1 spot and over his career has collaborated with the likes of Anne-Marie, Sigala, Rudimental, Marshmello & many more.
‘Say You Won't Let Go’ became his breakthrough hit in the US. It was officially the UK's most streamed song in 2016 and has gone on to be enjoyed via 4 billion streams while the song's official video has achieved 1.5 billion views on YouTube. Earlier this year, the track became his first RIAA Diamond Single with 10 million certified units – making James one of just 100 recipients of an RIAA Diamond Single certification in the programme's history.
Other huge hit singles include: ‘Impossible’, ‘Can I Be Him’, ‘Sun Comes Up’, ‘Naked’, ‘Empty Space’, ‘Rewrite The Stars’, ‘Falling Like the Stars’, ‘Train Wreck’ and ‘Lasting Lover’, which are all certified platinum records. The song ‘Cars Outside’ off the new album is currently becoming another global hit for James.
James Arthur’s fifth studio album, ‘Bitter Sweet Love’is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment/Columbia Records.

RADWIMPS - "Suzume" feat. Toaka [Official Lyric Video]
About RADWIMPS
Formed in 2001, Japanese 4-piece band RADWIMPS made their major label debut in 2005. Soon after, they garnered a broad fan base, with the younger generation at the core. The band has released nine studio albums thus far. The band's creation of music for Shinkai’s previous record-breaking animated feature films "Your Name." and "Weathering with You" led to recognitions at the Japanese Academy Award for Best Original Score. Their musical activities go far beyond Japan, including touring extensively around the world.
In November 2021, the band released their latest studio album 'FOREVER DAZE' and went on the road for a nationwide Japanese tour to support the album. 'FOREVER DAZE' was written and recorded throughout the pandemic and speaks to the musical challenges the guys faced, their hopes moving forward and features a diverse group of collaborators and experimental elements.
In 2022, RADWIMPS teamed up with highly acclaimed film music composer Kazuma Jinnouchi to create the perfect soundtrack and score for award-winning director Makoto Shinkai's latest film, 'Suzume', which grossed more than $300 million at the global box office and has been nominated for a Golden Globe.
'Suzume' tells the story of a young girl travelling through various ruins across Japan, while closing doors that cause disaster. The film, which opened in Japan on 11 November 2022, became a box office sensation, grossing over 14.22 billion Yen to date and holding the #1 spot for three consecutive weeks. Its international rollout has been equally successful, with openings in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and other countries topping the charts.
In addition to their remarkable success on tours and in the music industry, the band resonates strongly with their Southeast Asian audience, with their Top 10 Streaming Markets including #2 Indonesia, #3 Philippines, #7 Malaysia and #9 Thailand.

Reverb Worship Inspires You to Wait on God’s Timing with Newest Single, “Maghihintay”
As the New Year unfolds and the world seeks answered prayers, hope emerges. Reverb Worship brings this beautiful reminder of God’s faithfulness with its newest single, Maghihintay—out now on all digital streaming platforms worldwide!
Written and performed by promising artist Ava Canaceli and arranged by the critically acclaimed music producer ShadielChan, Maghihintay is Reverb Worship’s first anthem for 2024. Inspired by the Psalms of David in the Bible, Ava penned the song during the pandemic as a reminder of God’s goodness and to encourage listeners to stay firm and faithful in their waiting seasons.
“In difficult times, we often feel like God is silent—like He is not doing anything. This song is all about waiting desperately for Him and seeking His presence, no matter how long it takes for Him to answer,” the singer-songwriter shared.
Ava’s personal yet relatable lyrics and musing from the timeless biblical message, paired with her soulful voice and balladic melody, gave birth to the masterpiece that is Maghihintay.
The rising artist continued, “Like David pleading with the Lord, I hope this song becomes our prayer too—that we will patiently wait on God, believe in Him, and seek Him desperately, knowing that His presence is more than enough in our most difficult times.”
CBN Asia’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer John Valdes Tan hopes that Reverb Worship’s new yearrelease will encourage many to receive God’s promise of fresh beginnings.
“We are proud to present the newest member of the Reverb Worship family, singer and composer, Ava Canaceli. We partnered Ava with the hitmaker arranger, Shadiel Chan to create Maghihintay—such a beautiful song born out of their talents and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The listeners will truly be blessed with this new flavor of Christian music,”
Believe that God is faithful to those who wait! Stream Maghihintay by Ava Canaceli on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and all digital streaming platforms worldwide. Follow Reverb Worship PH on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok to catch their upcoming song releases.
