m_musicnotesgraphic_0489269

Tate McRae has scheduled record release parties across the U.S. for her new album, So Close to What, taking place Feb. 21 through Feb. 23. They’ll take place in multiple record stores in multiple states, from Alabama to Wyoming — check with individual stores for more details. The album is officially out Feb. 21. 

It’s been less than 24 hours since Beyoncé won the Grammy for album of the year, but it’s already paying off. Variety reports that after Cowboy Carter won the trophy, streams of the album increased by close to 800%. Bey won a total of three Grammys during Sunday night’s ceremony.

Shaboozey went home empty-handed at the Grammys despite six nominations, but at least he’s got a Billboard chart record to brag about. His song “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” has just racked up 27 weeks at #1 on the publication’s Radio Songs chart, which measures radio airplay. That means he just broke the record of 26 weeks set in 2020 by The Weeknd‘s “Blinding Lights.”

BLACKPINK‘s JISOO has released the track listing for her debut solo mini-album, AMORTAGE, which is due out Feb. 14. There are four tracks on the project, which is now available for preorder. The album’s title is a combination of the words “amor” — Spanish for love — and “montage.” According to the press release, the songs “lean into the emotional stages of love and the many moments of a relationship.”
