Sifting through all of the musical hype

Aussie pop band 5 Seconds of Summer returns in compelling fashion on their third album, ‘Youngblood’ with a sleek, modern pop sound.

Iconic 90s boy band Backstreet Boys return with a catchy, fun, and soundly executed new single, “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart.”

Austin, Brandon, Edwin, Nick, and Zion, members of up-and-coming urban-pop boy-band PRETTYMUCH, release their debut EP, fittingly titled ‘PRETTYMUCH an EP.’

In preparation for their debut album, PRETTYMUCH – Austin, Brandon, Edwin, Nick, and Zion – drops a swagger-laden new single, “10,000 Hours.”

Rising boy band Why Don’t We impresses with their slick, new single, “Trust Fund Baby.” “Trust Fund Baby” successfully blends pop, rap, and R&B.

Up-and-coming American boy band PRETTYMUCH enlist French Montana for the assist on their latest single, “No More.”

PRETTYMUCH show they are ‘pretty much’ the ‘next big boy-band’ on their entertaining second single, “Teacher.”

Irish pop star Niall Horan spreads his wings and drops his debut solo single, "This Town." The results are respectable, if predictable.

Former One Direction member Zayn Malik criticizes One Direction's music as being generic. Does he have a valid point?

The Vamps have plenty of ground to make up in order to break through in the U.S.

Review: Pop trio Emblem3 may truly have ‘Nothing to Lose’ but do they ‘gain enough’ to become commercially successful on their debut album?
