Fall Out Boy returns with the oddest single of its career, “Young and Menace.” “Young and Menace” sets up M A N I A as an adventurous album.

Katy Perry falls short of her typical glory on her sensual, second single, “Bon Appétit.” Despite being assisted by Migos, “Bon Appétit” lacks relevance.

Logic, assisted by Alessia Cara and Khalid, delivers a meaningful message on “1-800-273-8255,” the third single from his third studio album, ‘Everybody.’
DJ Khaled returns with another star-studded hit, “I’m the One” featuring Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper, and Lil Wayne.
Lord Huron gets a boost thanks to “The Night We Met” from sophomore album, Strange Trails. The single appears on the Netflix series, 13 Reasons Why.
D.R.A.M. returns with a new single, “Gilligan,” featuring Juicy J and A$AP Rocky. On “Gilligan,” he moves away from singing.
Big Boi delivers a hip-hop track, “Mic Jack,” than can easily be mistaken for a hit intended for the dance floor. Adam Levine guests on the groovy single.
A$AP Ferg returns to form on “East Coast,” presumably a promo single from his forthcoming album. Remy Ma guests on the second verse.
Up-and-coming pop artist and YouTube personality Alex Aiono returns with a second single, “Question,” from his forthcoming project.
Omarion has difficulty carving space in a cool urban contemporary market with his cliché new single, “BDY ON ME.”
Bleachers continue an excellent track record of superb singles with “Hate That You Know Me,” the 2nd single from sophomore album, GONE NOW.
