In the latest music news, April 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting month for new releases across various genres. Wiz Khalifa is set to drop the highly anticipated sequel to his 2010 mixtape, *Kush + Orange Juice*, titled *Kush + Orange Juice 2*. This 23-track project, releasing on April 18, promises to bring back the feel-good, smoked-out energy of the original, with tracks like "Hit It Once" and "5 Star" featuring Gunna[1].

Roddy Ricch is also making a significant return with his third LP, *The Navy Album*, scheduled for release on April 25. After teasing the album since last year, Roddy Ricch has released substantial singles like "Survivor's Remorse" and "Lonely Road", showcasing his stellar songwriting and emotional depth[1].

From Louisiana, Kool Brown is preparing to release his new EP, *BRNZ* (Bronze), on April 4. This EP follows his recent single "Vice City Stories", which highlights his southern swag and storytelling ability[1].

In other release news, several artists have upcoming projects in various stages of development. Ethel Cain's *Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You* is set for August 2025, while Gorillaz, Blondie, and Lizzo are among those with titles to be announced later in the year[3].

On the industry front, 2024 saw significant financial investments in the music sector, including major label acquisitions and the sale of classic music catalogs. Notably, Sony Music purchased the recording and publishing rights to Queen’s music for nearly $1.3 billion, indicating a strong return of investment in the music industry after the economic downturn in 2022[2].

Legal battles have also been a focal point, with high-profile cases involving copyright infringement and AI-generated content. Drake is suing his label's parent company over allegations of unethical tactics to boost a rival track by Kendrick Lamar, while Miley Cyrus faces a copyright lawsuit for her song "Flowers", which some argue was influenced by Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man"[2].

In performance news, Beyoncé continues to make waves with her Renaissance World Tour, which has been the highest-grossing tour by a female artist for a short span. Her recent performances, including a private show in Dubai, have been highly acclaimed and financially lucrative[4].
