Ballerific Music: New Music Drops to Start Your Weekend from Juvenile, Loe Shimmy, Bruno Mars, and More

This week’s New Music Friday proves that hip-hop and R&B are thriving, with legends and rising stars alike delivering heat just in time for the weekend.

Following the viral success of his new track “BBB,” Juvenile tapped Megan Thee Stallion for a down south remix like none other. As usual, Meg delivers on the hard-hitting, booty-shaking banger, while Juvenile sounds more like a fresh act than a rap veteran with nearly 30 years in the game. With the track already taking over TikTok FYPs, adding Megan is sure to skyrocket this unexpected hit even further.

Loe Shimmy slows things down with his new single, “No Mileage.” Teetering the line between R&B and hip-hop, the Florida star shines over a smooth, melodic beat. Continuing his impressive run of singles, “No Mileage” follows recent releases such as “By My Side” and “Crank Up Da Jet.” It’s safe to assume a full-length project is in the works, as Shimmy shows no signs of slowing down.

Bruno Mars has officially unveiled his long-awaited album, “The Romantic.” Coming off the heels of Valentine’s Day, the nine-track release finds Bruno in true lover-boy form. Led by “Risk It All” and its accompanying visual, the project closes with “Dance With Me,” a sweet ballad that stays true to his overall message: love out loud and with pure intentions. As the crooner prepares to take the album on the road, fans can get acquainted with this feel-good body of work years in the making.
