Check out all of this week\u2019s picks below:<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Jack White, \u201cG.O.D. And The Broken Ribs\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>\n\tReleased as a surprise two-pack alongside single \u201cDerecho Demonico,\u201d it\u2019s possible these could be the two songs Jack White will perform as musical guest on <em>Saturday Night Live <\/em>come April 4. And \u201cG.O.D.\u201d certainly comes with a message, as White sings on the track, \u201cWell, it\u2019s the beginning of the world now\/ And there\u2019s nobody left\u2026 Let\u2019s start again\u2026 Let\u2019s do it all over again.\u201d Musically, it\u2019s not as electrifying or hard-hitting as some of White\u2019s other material, but that\u2019s where \u201cDerecho Demonico\u201d comes in as a perfect partner.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Arlo Parks, \u201cBeams\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<p><iframe title=\"Arlo Parks - Arlo Parks - Beams (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3K8uLXbEE64?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\n\tReleased in tandem with the English singer-songwriter\u2019s third album, <em>Ambiguous Desire<\/em>, \u201cBeams\u201d is a peak into the project\u2019s gentle touch \u2014 a signature of Parks\u2019 sound. Yet here, that gentle touch is a bit of a bandaid for an old wound, until eventually Parks realizes just how much healing has happened under the surface. The song is a delicate dance between that still-present ache and a soft assuredness that has crept in with time. As Parks shared in a statement: \u201cIt\u2019s about the pain of feeling discarded, or feeling like the oldest hurt that you carry around like a stone is a burden not just to you but to everyone around you\u2026But it\u2019s also about trying to (slowly but surely) want better for yourself and realise that you are loveable as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Anne Hathaway, \u201cMy Mouth Is Lonely For You (From <em>Mother Mary<\/em>)\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>\n\tCome April 17, Mother Mary will make her debut when the A24 film of the same name premieres, starring Anne Hathaway as an iconic pop star making a comeback. <em>Mother Mary: Greatest Hits<\/em> will drop the same day, featuring seven original songs written and produced by Jack Antonoff and Charli xcx. Single \u201cBurial\u201d arrived first, showcasing airy vocals that feature even more prominently on \u201cMy Mouth Is Lonely For You,\u201d which soundtracks the latest trailer for the film. Written by FKA twigs, the experimental influence is clear \u2014 and Hathaway more than delivers, arriving as a fully-formed pop artist before the movie arrives itself. <\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>floweroflove, \u201cAmerican Wedding\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<p><iframe title=\"American Wedding\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0B7fxRygeCQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\n\tRising pop singer floweroflove is preparing to make her Coachella debut and is pulling out all the stops for promoting new music \u2014 including a fake engagement. While teasing new single \u201cAmerican Wedding\u201d on social media, the singer posted a selfie wearing an engagement ring, writing: \u201cWasn\u2019t going to post this but I can\u2019t hide it anymore. I\u2019m so so so excited to announce that I\u2019m engaged! To the money. American wedding comes out tomo.\u201d While the song sounds as sweet as its sentiment (\u201cI wanna have your babies\/ I wanna be First Lady\u201d) the guitar solo that crashes in near the end highlights the real twist of the track: her ex was never up for getting married. As she concludes of a wedding that never was: \u201cIt ended just like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Sofia D\u2019Angelo, \u201cTime\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<p><iframe title=\"Sofia D'Angelo - TIME\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/deaVgurYjP4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\n\t\u201cTime\u201d comes as the latest single from Sofia D\u2019Angelo \u2014 perhaps better known as a member of New York indie-pop collective MICHELLE \u2014 who in 2024 started releasing solo material again for the first time in four years. The surging pop track packs powerful meaning about time passing by and wondering what you\u2019ll remember; the music video plays into the theme, showing an elderly D\u2019Angelo (thanks to makeup) speaking to the camera, reflecting on her simple life before concluding that every once in a while, \u201ceven grandma needs a good time.\u201d What follows is the soundtrack for a contemplative night out, with D\u2019Angelo prematurely wondering \u201cif time was on my side.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/\" title=\"Billboard\"><br \/>\n\t\t<svg style=\"height:100%;width:100%\" viewBox=\"0 0 455.133 94.711\"><path d=\"M70.107 28.859h21.318V93.69H70.107zM95.834 3.51h21.312v90.18H95.834zm25.723 0h21.312v90.18h-21.312zm250.711 32.035v-6.686h-21.315V93.69h21.315V62.792c0-7.949 4.154-12.237 11.728-12.237h2.522V28.229c-6.432.253-11.1 2.271-14.25 7.316M80.764 0c-6.822 0-12.359 5.535-12.359 12.361s5.537 12.363 12.359 12.363c6.828 0 12.361-5.537 12.361-12.363S87.592 0 80.764 0m244.457 33.795c-2.996-3.268-9.967-5.965-15.26-5.965-16.098 0-27.646 10.613-30.473 26.389-3.082-15.135-16.273-26.78-32.359-26.78-16.24 0-29.537 11.781-32.444 27.2-2.822-16.026-15.428-26.648-31.061-26.648-5.801 0-10.596 1.262-14.76 4.16V3.521h-21.312V93.7h20.938v-5.93c5.045 4.668 10.467 6.812 17.154 6.812 14.398 0 26.52-11.271 29.113-26.807 3.055 15.203 16.169 26.76 32.373 26.76 16.065 0 28.949-11.312 32.228-26.125 2.711 16.18 15.531 26.301 30.854 26.301 5.293 0 11.099-1.771 15.009-4.668V93.7h21.312V65.327q.002-1.745-.031-3.406.033-1.66.031-3.405V28.969h-21.312zM181.355 73.948c-6.826 0-12.359-5.535-12.359-12.363 0-6.824 5.533-12.358 12.359-12.358 6.824 0 12.359 5.534 12.359 12.358.001 6.828-5.534 12.363-12.359 12.363m65.774-.99c-6.822 0-12.361-5.539-12.361-12.363s5.539-12.358 12.361-12.358c6.824 0 12.359 5.535 12.359 12.358.001 6.823-5.532 12.363-12.359 12.363m64.047.392c-6.826 0-12.354-5.539-12.354-12.363s5.527-12.358 12.354-12.358c6.832 0 12.359 5.535 12.359 12.358.001 6.824-5.527 12.363-12.359 12.363M433.815 3.5v28.631c-4.156-2.9-8.949-4.16-14.757-4.16-17.782 0-31.654 13.746-31.654 33.55 0 18.664 13.368 33.043 29.642 33.043 6.68 0 12.103-2.146 17.152-6.811v5.928h20.938V3.5zm-12.553 70.288c-6.817 0-12.354-5.539-12.354-12.358 0-6.828 5.535-12.365 12.354-12.365 6.828 0 12.363 5.537 12.363 12.365 0 6.819-5.535 12.358-12.363 12.358M36.072 27.99c-5.803 0-10.594 1.262-14.76 4.16V3.521H0V93.7h20.936v-5.93c5.045 4.668 10.469 6.812 17.156 6.812 16.268 0 29.637-14.383 29.637-33.047 0-19.797-13.874-33.545-31.657-33.545m-2.269 45.958c-6.824 0-12.359-5.535-12.359-12.363 0-6.824 5.535-12.358 12.359-12.358 6.826 0 12.359 5.534 12.359 12.358 0 6.828-5.533 12.363-12.359 12.363\" \/><\/svg>\t\t<span><\/span><br \/>\n\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Get weekly rundowns straight to your inbox<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.email.billboard.com\/signup\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n\tSign Up<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/pop\/jack-white-arlo-parks-anne-hathaway-new-music-friday-guide-1236213934\/\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music Check out the must-hear releases of the week.
