From Clairo’s long awaited new LP to Remi Wolf’s funk-fueled new album, check out just a few of our favorite releases from this week below:
Clairo, Charm
[embedded content]
Throughout her already-impressive career, Claire Cottrill has proven herself as nothing short of a remarkable songwriter — and she further burnishes that reputation on Charm, the third full length LP from Cottrill’s better-known stage name Clairo. Throughout this lush new project, Cottrill drills down into the specificity and tenderness that made her a star in the first place, now pushing her sound even further with luxurious intstrumentation and production courtesy of Leon Michels.

Remi Wolf, Big Ideas
[embedded content]
Idiosyncratic song concepts are Remi Wolf’s bread and butter, so it should come as no surprise that her new album luxuriates as often as possible in its singularity. Big Ideas manages to take the sound and character Wolf has established through half a decade of musical output and expands them into an entire musical universe for her to populate. Funk remains in the driver’s seat across nearly every song, where Wolf waxes poetic about everything from toxic relationships to crippling loneliness to hotel sex. Big Ideas is chock-full of the thoughts you would hope an artist as endlessly interesting as Wolf would have, making for the most intoxicatingly effective project of her career.
Maren Morris, “I Hope I Never Fall in Love”
[embedded content]
There is that moment post-breakup where you just know, with certainty, that you won’t put yourself through the pain of a relationship again — even though you also know that you’ll eventually cave. Maren Morris has given that moment it’s own song in “I Hope I Never Fall in Love,” a stunningly candid ballad that sees the singer diving head first into single life with a not-so-sunny outlook. Her echoing voice bounces off the spare instrumentation throughout this mid-tempo confessional, as she makes herself a vow: “Love, you only did me dirty,” she sings. “Forever was a f–kin’ lie, so goodbye.”
Salute, True Magic
[embedded content]
They say that teamwork makes the dream work, and Salute is here to prove the saying correct. True Magic, the fast-rising producer’s third studio album, is built around the concept of collaboration, with nearly each new track seeing the DJ teaming up with yet another peer. With guest spots from Rina Sawayama, Disclosure, Empress Of and plenty of others, Salute takes their sound to brand new levels by embracing further evolutions and interpretations than ever before. With his singular artistic vision, Salute manages to spin beats into magic on this aptly-title new project.
Orion Sun, “Mary Jane”
[embedded content]
With each successive release, Orion Sun underlines why she’s an essential artist to listen to today. “Mary Jane,” her latest off her forthcoming album Orion, sees the singer-songwriter trying to find something that can “take this pain away,” and finding her titular solution. With complex harmonies littered all throughout the song, Sun manages to seize your attention and command it even further on this sumptuous, euphoric new song.
Dua Saleh, “Want”
[embedded content]
Indie-R&B up-and-comer Dua Saleh is tired of beating around the bush. They want to want you, and that’s exactly what they’re going to do. On their latest single “Want,” Saleh tells the story of a magnetic relationship — even when both parties know they shouldn’t, they just can’t help but be with one another. Saleh’s voice sounds more impeccable than ever, as their production (courtesy of Jason Suwito) manages to build up the song’s strong sense of desire until it reaches a zenith by the final chorus. Trust us, you’ll “Want” to hear this.

However big a Swiftie you think you are, you have nothing on comedian Nikki Glaser. The stand-up and roast dais veteran revealed to fill-in Jimmy Kimmel Live! host and fellow joke slinger Kumail Nanjiani on Thursday night (July 11) that not only has she seen Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show 17 times over the past 15 months, but she has also never once taken a bathroom break during all that time.

In fact, Glaser said she had just returned from her latest hop over to Europe the day before after attending her latest Eras show. “I was on break from tour and I was seeing Taylor Swift. That’s what I do with my free time,” Glaser told Nanjiani about her latest jaunt in which she five shows in 10 days. “Europe just happened to be there while she was there,” Glaser joked.
The self-proclaimed Swiftie explained that when she has weekends off from her own Alive and Unwell tour she flies wherever she needs to for a “Florida!!!” fix. “I’m like a divorced dad doing his best to see daughter… she has no idea who I am but I’m just the biggest fan.” Glaser has no idea if Swift even knows who she is, though she suspects Taylor might since the Roast of Tom Brady star talks about her favorite singer all the time.
Trending on Billboard
Trying to keep up, Nanjiani noted that he’s also a Swiftie, though he’s only seen the tour once, “like a normal person,” holding up a pic of himself at a show in which he rocks several friendship bracelets. Nanjiani said he gets why Glaser is obsessed by the positive vibe at the shows, but looked shocked at the 17-gig figure as the audience let out a gasp at the gaudy figure.
“I know, I know! I’m addicted,” Glaser, 40, said, unapologetically describing the “surge of dopamine” she gets from the concerts. “For me it’s either that or cocaine and luckily I can afford both,” she quipped. Glaser said she realizes her show count is “excessive” and can’t explain her fascination, other than to note that when the tour was first announced she was determined to go to every show.
Realizing that might be weird, she decided to go to just two or three until her boyfriend reminded her that she works so hard and loves Taylor so much that he encouraged Glaser to go to as many shows as possible.
If you’ve gotten this far and none of this blows your mind, peep this: Glaser said despite the sometimes nearly four-hour show length, she prides herself on “never once” going to the bathroom during the more than 60 hours she’s logged at the concerts. “For whatever reason my body is just like, ‘you’re not gonna do that like right now… it’s probably what her body does during it,” Glaser speculated. “I don’t think she has time to go so I kind of like set my rhythms to hers.”
When Nanjiani asked if at some point Glaser might tap the breaks, the comedian said she, in fact, plans to see more Eras Tour shows. “I thought it might happen but it hasn’t yet at 17,” she said of tapping out. “I just feel like this is a time where I just have to see someone who is one of the best performers who’s ever lived,” she explained, comparing seeing Swift to the modern-day equivalent of having attended a Beatles show.
“I want to just see it as much as possible, it’s the thing that makes me happiest in the world,” she said. Glaser also mentioned that her dad does not like the Beatles comparison, then cued up a clip of her pops “crying like a baby” at an Eras show she took him to in Europe. Nanjiani then lightly roasted Glaser for her obsession, busting out some research on the other things she could have done with those 60+ hours, including: getting a helicopter pilot’s license, watched all five seasons of Breaking Bad and get CPR certification 30 times.

“I was a fan of the music because I’ve listened to her forever but I did not know she was such an unstoppable force,” Tatum told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show on Thursday night (July 11) after the host shared a pic of the actor with Gayle King at an Eras Tour show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles in August 2023. Tatum, 44, came ready to play for that gig with a glitter heart around his left eye and a homemade “It’s Me, Hi I’m the Daddy It’s Me” shirt fashioned by his daughter, Everly.
“I mean, I kind of know her a little personally and she’s really kind of just normal and sweet,” Tatum added before dropping a pastry-related bombshell. “And she’ll make you, like, a dinner, and like whip it up no problem. Like, homemade Pop-Tarts. Like warm, warm Pop-Tarts. I’m like, ‘Did you just make these? How are these warm?’”

Blown away by the Eras Tour gig — where Tatum said he was very careful to do just “hand-dancing” and keep it G-rated in front of his daughter by avoiding any Magic Mike-like below-the-belt gyrations — the actor said he considers Swift to also be an elite athlete. “And then you get to see her go on stage, for like a three-plus hour show … I challenge any triathlete that’s a champion to go and do what she’s doing on stage. I was a fan-fan after that,” he said.
Tatum — who currently stars in the new NASA-themed film Fly Me To the Moon – also gushed about his engagement to actress/director Zoe Kravitz. “I’m so happy, I don’t even know how to really put it into words,” Tatum said. “She’s so special and yeah, I don’t know, to get to wake up every day and create with somebody. It’s really, really good.” When Fallon joined in on the lovefest by praising Kravitz’s cool factor, Tatum tried to play it cool himself, before admitting that his beloved is actually, okay, fine, “annoyingly cool… it’s a problem.”
He said the two of them met on the set of her psychological thriller directorial debut, originally called P—y Island, now called Blink Twice, which is due out on August 23. Tatum — who, not for nothing, has a resting shredded body — had a laugh with Fallon about his soon-to-be, insanely ripped father-in-law, Lenny Kravitz, 60. The pair gazed in awe at a picture of the rocker showing off his washboard abs in a shirtless Instagram post, with Tatum saying, “I don’t even understand, like, how do you do it? He’s not from this planet.”
And yes, the actor has seen Kravitz work out and he and Fallon had a laugh about the “most iconic” thing Tatum said he’s seen “in decades”: the viral video of Lenny pressing iron on an incline bench in leather pants, boots, shades and a mesh shirt. “I thought it was AI at first!” Tatum said. “And I was like, ‘oh no, it’s not AI, it’s just Lenny Kravitz.”
