DJ Rio Davies reviews new music each week

 

New Music from Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga

Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga are back after taking a break from releasing new music for a couple of years. Lady Gaga’s last release was in 2022 on the Top Gun: Maverick soundtrack, while Bruno Mars last dropped music in 2021 with his album An Evening With Silk Sonic. The pair have teamed up on the track ‘Die With A Smile’, and it’s already generating a lot of buzz. One fan declared it an “INSTANT CLASSIC,” while another said, “Adding this to my playlist”. Although many are calling it a brilliant collaboration, some on Instagram have commented that they’re both “too 2010”. Regardless, ‘Die With A Smile’ has already reached Number 26 in the Spotify UK Charts on it’s release day (16/08/24), and it’s likely to keep climbing.

New Music from Pitbull teaming up with Jax Jones, Jason Derulo and Joel Corry

Jax Jones and Joel Corry, who previously teamed up on OUT OUT with Charli XCX and Saweetie in 2021, are back at it. This time, they’ve joined forces with Jason Derulo to release Tonight (D.I.Y.A) at the end of June. The track quickly racked up over 7 million streams and caught the attention of rapper and singer Pitbull. In an interview with KISS FM, Jax Jones joked about wondering what the song would sound like if Pitbull jumped on it. After a bit of messing about, he created a mix that caught Pitbull’s attention. The video Jax posted on his socials quickly blew up, with fans urging Pitbull to get involved. One commenter tagged Pitbull, writing, “He should be calling you! @pitbull You know what you need to do”.

Rio says “I love this track from Jax Jones and Joel Corry, the duo’s music is amazing and when they are brought together on tracks it makes their music even better! Music from Jax Jones, Joel Corry and similar artists are usually played on a Friday 4:30-6pm on the Ngage Radio Drivetime Show with Rio, Grace, Emily and Amelia”.

New Album from Post Malone ‘F-1 Trillion’ Out Now!

Post Malone is back with his sixth studio album, F-1 Trillion, which dropped on Friday (16th August 2024). Known for chart-toppers like Rockstar, Psycho, and Circles, Post Malone’s new album takes a bold step into country music. F-1 Trillion features collaborations with big names like Morgan Wallen, Tim McGraw, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, and Chris Stapleton. The album includes singles like ‘I Had Some Help’ with Morgan Wallen and ‘Pour Me A Drink’ with Blake Shelton. An article on Entertainment Focus called it “Bold, Bombastic and Very Very Country”.

Rio says “The new album from Post Malone has some of my favourite songs  in there, I specifically love ‘I Had Some Help’ with Morgan Wallen. If you love Post Malone’s new album, you’ll most likely hear music from Post Malone’s and other country tracks just like it with Ash Watkin on a Sunday 4-6pm where he plays a variety of country music every week!”
