In the past 24 hours, the music world has seen a flurry of exciting new releases and announcements across various genres.

April 2025 is shaping up to be a significant month for music enthusiasts, particularly with the release of Wiz Khalifa's highly anticipated sequel, *Kush + Orange Juice 2*. This project marks the 15th anniversary of the original mixtape, which was a cornerstone of the Blog Era in hip-hop. The new album features 23 tracks, including collaborations with artists like Gunna and Don Toliver, and is set to bring back the smoked-out energy that defined Wiz Khalifa's earlier work[3].

In the realm of rock music, several notable releases are on the horizon. Neil Young is set to release a new live project titled *Coastal*, which combines songs from his older albums like *On the Beach* and *Comes a Time* with newer material from *World Record*. Billy Idol is also making a comeback with his first full-length album in over a decade, *Dream Into It*, an autobiographical work that includes duets with Joan Jett and Avril Lavigne. Additionally, L.A. Guns will release their fourth consecutive album with reunited guitarist Tracii Guns and frontman Phil Lewis, titled *Leopard Skin*[5].

Ghost is preparing to release their sixth album, *Skeleta*, which will be the first to feature Papa V Perpetua, the latest incarnation of bandleader Tobias Forge. This album is part of a larger tour that includes a performance at Black Sabbath’s farewell show in July. Elton John, in collaboration with Brandi Carlile, has completed *Who Believes in Angels?*, a project written and recorded in just 20 days with a notable backing band including Chad Smith, Pino Palladino, and Josh Klinghoffer[5].

On the pop and contemporary front, ROSÉ and Bruno Mars have released a new single titled "APT.", while Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars have collaborated on "Die With A Smile". Billie Eilish is also set to release new music, adding to the vibrant mix of April 2025's new music releases[1].

Other notable releases in April include projects from Ken Carson, Boldy James, Kool Brown, Luh Kel, and Fly Anakin, showcasing a diverse range of hip-hop and rap talent. These releases follow a March that saw the debut of highly anticipated albums such as Playboi Carti's *Music* and Lil Durk's *Deep Thoughts*[3].
