Rahim Redcar, the artist formerly known as Christine and the Queens, has called his new album a project of “tears, blood, and mostly an unwavering faith in the raw, pure expression of the soul.” The album, Hopecore, sets high-stakes pop to a club pulse, as evidenced by his switch from the stage theatrics of last album Paranoïa, Angels, True Love for a series of nightclub live dates. The record, he added, is a single-minded affair—“an absolute quest where no one else came in to tamper with intentions. A call of the flesh, a prayer for justice and freedom.”

Tommy Richman: Coyote [ISO Supremacy/Pulse]

Tommy Richman Coyote

Tommy Richman, the Virginia native and TikTok breakout, has released his debut album, Coyote. The 11-song record notably excludes his two breakout hits, “Million Dollar Baby” and “Devil Is a Lie,” but it does feature the more recent “Thought You Were the One” and “Whitney.” Richman layers his dramatic falsetto over beats that nod to 1990s R&B, 1880s synth-pop, funk, and disco. Despite his rapid rise to fame, complete with an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the singer is out to prove he’s not a one-hit-wonder. “This is a big record, but this s–t doesn’t define me,” he told Billboard in June. “This is the start of a run.”
