Doja Cat Drops Sizzling New Single ‘Jealous Type’ from Upcoming Album Vie

Doja Cat unleashed her latest single ‘Jealous Type’ on August 21, 2025, marking the lead track from her highly anticipated fifth studio album, Vie, set to drop on September 26 via Kemosabe Records and RCA Records. The Grammy-winning artist, known for her genre-blending prowess as the “Queen of Pop-Rap,” has a storied career with 19 Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year for Planet Her (Deluxe), and a win for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for ‘Kiss Me More’ with SZA. Her 2023 album Scarlet hit number four on the Billboard 200, spawning the chart-topping ‘Paint the Town Red’, her first solo number-one single. Doja Cat also announced her Ma Vie World Tour, kicking off November 18 in Auckland at Spark Arena, with stops in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Manila, Tokyo, and wrapping in Kaohsiung on December 21.

‘Jealous Type’ is a vibrant pop-rap track infused with funk-pop and disco-pop elements, crafted by producers Jack Antonoff and Y2K. The song’s retro ‘80s-inspired soundscape, complete with bright synths and punchy programmed drums, delivers a groove-heavy vibe. Lyrically, it dives into the complexities of jealousy and insecurity in relationships, with Doja Cat’s breathy vocals gliding over a slick, danceable beat. The accompanying music video, directed by Boni Mata and shot in Los Angeles, features Doja in bold, neon-lit visuals, embodying an ‘80s femme fatale while confronting her own duality in a striking narrative.

‘Jealous Type’ could mark a turning point for disco-pop’s return to pop’s mainstream. By blending its infectious, groove-driven essence with modern pop-rap sensibilities, Doja Cat taps into a hunger for upbeat, dancefloor-ready tracks that resonate in a post-isolation era. Unlike fleeting trends, this single’s polished yet raw production—rooted in funky bass and sparkling synths—feels like a natural evolution of her sound. With Doja’s massive influence, this release might not just dominate playlists but also inspire a wave of artists to revive disco-pop’s vibrant, communal spirit, redefining pop’s trajectory.

Doller Hits Back with Traphall Anthem ‘WHO HYPE? WHO BRUK?’

The 20th of August marked the arrival of Doller’s new Traphall cut ‘WHO HYPE? WHO BRUK?’, on Beyond Dis World. Hailing from North London as Dorante Johnson, Doller got his start influenced by family members. His father, Kush Tafari, has roots in reggae, and his uncle Flash has roots in dancehall and was dropping mixtapes and battling locally while forming Cold Blooded.

He rose through The Movement, delivering a standout Westwood freestyle that got DJs buzzing. Doller expanded with features from Sir Spyro and Tion Wayne, launched Go Getters label, and branched into a cooking YouTube series. He’s grabbed nods from NOTION, Wordplay Magazine, GRM Daily, featured in MTV Base spots, and placed ‘Skadoosh’ in the flick Sket. Touring wise, he’s rocked Dortmund beside reggae singer Cblock, topped bills at Hackney Social’s Wynters Wonder List, and shared stages on the Sing for Me Tour with Ghetts. Regular plays on BBC Radio 1Xtra come from DJ Target, Sian Anderson, and Seani B, plus ‘This Year’ snagged BBC Track of the Week status in 2021, solidifying his pull in UK dancehall, trap, and grime. Pulling inspo from Vybz Kartel, 50 Cent, Jay Z, Nas, Biggie, Durtty Doogz, and Jodeci, he mixes in rap and R&B edges, like on ‘Money Song’, proving his range.

‘WHO HYPE? WHO BRUK?’ rides a heavy, shadowed production with staggered drums propping up Doller’s aggressive, confident spits. The flow glides clean, spiked by responsive chorus exchanges that make it a tough, lasting rally cry.

Doller revealed: “I wanted everybody in the world to feel comfortable with their financial status and have an anthem to celebrate that.”

KEYS Drop Acid Communism, a Sonic Ode to Collective Creativity

(KEYS / Courtesy PR)

On July 18, 2025, KEYS unleashed their latest album, Acid Communism, via Libertino Records, marking their most ambitious project yet. The Welsh psych-rock outfit, led by vocalist and songwriter Matthew Evans, channels the unfinished theories of the late cultural theorist Mark Fisher into a vibrant tapestry of sound and ideas. Known for their raw, collaborative energy, KEYS have carved a niche in the UK’s indie scene, blending lo-fi aesthetics with expansive psych-pop. Their previous release, Homeschooling, captured the intimacy of lockdown creation, and this new record builds on that foundation, cementing their reputation as a band that thrives on instinct and community.

Acid Communism spans twelve tracks, weaving sunlit psych-pop grooves with jagged guitar riffs, introspective piano melodies, and ambient textures. The double A-side singles, ‘Your Shoes’ and ‘The Greatest Joke of All’, showcase the album’s emotional range. ‘Your Shoes’ is a live-wire, rhythm-driven jam, its chorus honed over years in rehearsal rooms, pulsing with the thrill of collective creation. In contrast, ‘The Greatest Joke of All’ is a tender, piano-led reflection written in a fleeting 15-minute burst during lockdown, its delicate minimalism offering a counterpoint to the band’s more raucous energy. Recorded using a mix of 8-track tape and digital tools, the album balances gritty warmth with crisp precision, echoing the free-spirited vibe of Jerry Garcia while staying rooted in KEYS’ DIY ethos.

Matthew Evans shared: “As a younger man, I’d blag my way through anything. But since hitting my 40s, that confidence isn’t always there. Playing in a band with your mates becomes therapy. It keeps you sane. Especially for men as they get older, it’s essential to have that kind of social network.” This sentiment highlights the album’s core: a celebration of togetherness in an era of disconnection. Acid Communism is a call to reconnect, create, and find solace in shared expression, making it a vital addition to the psych-rock landscape.
