Trippie Redd enlists Young Thug for “YELL OH,” an empty, totally classless banger that relies way too much on sex to fuel its fire.

R&B artist Khalid collaborates with Disclosure once more for “Know Your Worth.” The results are respectable, not game changing.

Niall Horan delivers a respectable single with “No Judgement,” but he fails to be truly dynamic, exciting, or exhibit innovative spirit.

No, “Birthday” won’t change your life, but Anne-Marie is certainly liberated and relatable on the tongue-n-cheek pop single.

Although she is retiring, Nicki Minaj delivers a ‘short, but sweet’ trap banger with “Yikes.” She’s not the least bit apologetic.

Aussie pop collective 5 Seconds of Summer delivers a thought-provoking message on “No Shame,” the third advance single from CALM.

Joji surprises with his first brand-new single of 2020, “Run,” which embraces an alternative sound, contrasting his previous music.

Justin Bieber enlists Quavo for “Intentions,” his 4th advance single from his highly anticipated comeback LP, Changes. The results are so-so.
![The Kid LAROI, "Diva" (Ft. Lil Tecca) [Photo Credit: Columbia]](https://i0.wp.com/themusicalhype.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/the-kid-laroi-diva-columbia-1.jpg?resize=360%2C240&ssl=1)
16-year-old Australian rapper The Kid LAROI enlists 17-year-old rapper Lil Tecca for the melodic banger, “Diva.”

On the relatively brief but potent “Value,” A$AP Ferg continues to do what he does best – flex hard like a boss and drop surefire bangers.
