Travis Barker confirmed on Instagram that the band will release a new album in 2021.
Brockhampton - TBA
The band will release what is potentially their final album together "before the end of the year," according to frontman Kevin Abstract.
Cardi B
Last August Cardi said in a US radio interview that she was plotting her next move after the global smash WAP, but was hesitant to give a release date until the pandemic is under control. "I have other projects coming out that doesn't involve music,” she said, “but when it comes to music I think I'm going to put out another single.”
Cardi B
Gwen Stefani
Gwen has confirmed her fifth studio album, saying the record is a return to her ska and reggae-influenced roots.
J Hus
The London rapper says he hopes to release his third album by August, and it will feature a mammoth 26 tracks.
Juice WRLD - The Party Never Ends
Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick has kept relatively quiet about when fans can expect new music, but given he was due to headline last year’s Glastonbury and British Summertime Hyde Park, we wouldn’t be surprised if he dropped the follow-up to his critically acclaimed DAMN. this year.

September 10: SAINT ETIENNE - I've Been Trying To Tell You
Küll
Again, where the is Iron Maiden's Senjutsu? This site really hates metal music
Count Plutarch
Placebo's album was nearly finished at the start of the pandemic, and they keep teasing it's coming... that'll be their first studio album since 2013!
And I wonder if we'll ever get The Cure's new album(s)...
S
SheriooSiiiiiR7
Waiting for Adele and Ed Sheeran
Tigg Scholessinger
Totally missed out Iron Maiden's new album releasing 3rd September. How disrespectful.
Küll
September 3
Iron Maiden - Senjutsu
Alfred Lock
Hasn't no one mentioned the most eagerly waited of all.Adele? Even Officialcharts doesn't know yet.
JG
Juanjo Gómez
As I envy them, great songs, great performers, surprising musical arrangements, UK continues to be the undisputed benchmark of contemporary pop music, here we continue with the pachanga and the "le re le"
Pablo Ortellado
Does anyone know what happened with new Abba's singles? LOL
P
Phillipe
They are coming out after lockdown, is what they have said in recent months! They have 5 new songs in all!
Mark Wislen
There have been a lot of hints, from Bjorn, that there are now more 'New' ABBA Songs, than the 2, that the Group announced, in April 2018. (Recorded in June 2017 - almost 4 Years ago!). There may be 5 'New' Songs, or it could be 8 - or even, an entire New Album. We will just have to wait and see. ABBA have recently said, that at least 1 'New' Song, will be out this Autumn - which is anytime from September to December. A lot will be happening, as regards ABBA, in 2022, as that is the 50th Anniversary of their formation, in 1972
Mark Wislen
We are to get at least 1 of the New ABBA Songs, in the 1st Minute of Friday 3rd September. We may get 2 New Songs, at that time. We will get the rest at a later Date. The Global Media are saying, that there are 5 New Songs, altogether. We will see.
Bengy
Now we know - it is a 10 track album. Friday 5th November. Remember.

Lars Van Moer
I am looking forward to the 22 January release of "Under A Mediterranean Sky", the new acoustic album by guitarist Steve Hackett (former Genesis guitarist still going strong) . One week later we will finally get the often postponed album "The Future Bites" by Steven Wilson.
