Watch Music Video for “work” HereCredit: Munachi Osegbu
The first-ever global pop girl group from Indonesia, no na, kick off the new year with “work,” a striking, high-energy single that marks a powerful evolution in the group’s sound and energy. Out now via 88rising, the track arrives alongside a bold music video that showcases their choreography, stamina, and attitude.
“work” is the group’s most dance forward pop release to date. In this drum driven hype record powered by Indonesian beats and gamelan-inspired rhythms, percussive hits collide with chant ready hooks and relentless momentum, turning the track into a physical experience for the stage and the dance floor. It is confident, disciplined, and unapologetically loud – a statement of intent from a group stepping fully into their power.
Lyrically and sonically, “work” reframes ambition as ritual and resolve. The track is about showing up, putting in the hours, and earning the glow-up. As no na declare it, this is girl boss energy rooted in community, and craft. New year, new mode, no excuses. Each member of no na – Christy, Esther, Baila, and Shaz – brings a distinct presence to the record, highlighting the group’s chemistry and bond. The music video, directed by Fa & Fon, acts as a full performance breakdown that highlights their physicality and dance mastery. This era is about strength and collective drive, reminding audiences why no na are a force to be reckoned with.
The new track comes off the heels of the group’s recently released single, “the one,” which dropped in November. The dreamy pop song feels like a late night confession, containing hazy 80’s-inspired retro synths and beautiful string motifs that highlight the group’s musical chemistry. The song’s music video has gone on to accumulate a tremendous 4.4 million views, demonstrating the enormous reach the group has garnered in such a short amount of time. no na is set to take that energy into 2026, starting off the year with new music and a highly anticipated performance at the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang M7 World Championship Finals on January 25th in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Since debuting in 2025, no na have rapidly made their mark on the global stage with tracks like “shoot,”“superstitious,” and “sad face :(,” earning buzz for their genre-blending sound and bold visual identity. Their growing list of collaborations, including Samsung, Tiffany & Co., and BAPE, reflects their rising influence at the intersection of music, fashion, and culture.
no na embody a new era of global pop, proudly rooted in Indonesian authenticity while resonating with audiences around the world.

Mitski announces her eighth studio album, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me— out February 27th via Dead Oceans — and releases its lead single/video, “Where’s My Phone?” Supported by a live band and orchestra, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me finds Mitski immersing herself in a rich narrative whose main character is a reclusive woman in an unkempt house. Outside of her home, she is a deviant; inside of her home, she is free.

Today’s fuzzed-out rock song, “Where’s My Phone?,” hints at the range of sounds and energy across the album: “Where did it go // Where’s my phone // Where’s my phone // Where did I leave // Where’d I go // Where’d I go,” she sings. New Yorker cartoonist Emily Flake depicts her interpretation in the below cartoon.
“Where’s My Phone?” by Emily Flake
“Where’s My Phone?” arrives alongside an unhinged, emotionally kaleidoscopic video directed by Noel Paul. Based on Shirley Jackson’s novel, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, and using a playful, primitive style of filmmaking, it presents Mitski playing a paranoid woman who is trying to protect her sister inside a gothic house while battling increasingly absurd, human obstacles. Creating a complex psychological palette, the intruders – whether menacing or friendly – cascade one upon the other building into total pandemonium.
Mitski wrote all of the songs and performed all of the vocals on Nothing’s About to Happen to Me. Produced and engineered by Patrick Hyland and mastered by Bob Weston, the album continues the musical through line established with 2023’s The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, and features live instrumentation by The Land touring band and ensemble arrangements. The orchestra was recorded at Sunset Sound and TTG Studios, arranged and conducted by Drew Erickson, engineered by Michael Harris.
Mitski is “the most alluring and enigmatic musician in indie rock” (Rolling Stone) who “keeps shifting in all these really brilliant and wonderful ways” (NPR Music). Throughout her career, she’s released seven albums, four of which are certified gold. Her song, “My Love Mine All Mine,” was a global sensation, and is four-times platinum. Mitski’s varied collaborations with other artists include two co-writes on the most recent Florence and the Machine album, Everybody Scream, and with David Byrne and Son Lux for the Oscar nominated“This Is A Life.” She is currently writing the music and lyrics for the musical adaptation of The Queen’s Gambit.
“A mesmerizing study in movement” (Variety), Mitski’s live show has also been described as “highly stylized, brilliantly realized, super cool” (Philadelphia Inquirer) and “unusual, enigmatic and utterly compelling” (The Guardian). Her first concert film, Mitski: The Land, was played in over 600 cinemas across 30 countries in October 2025, cementing her as “the rare indie star who has earned the big-screen treatment” (Uproxx). It was released in conjunction with The Land: The Live Album.

CenterPlay at City of Dreams Manila brings romance in the air with the charm of the nostalgic 80’s as it turns the spotlight for the second time to popular matinee idol and balladeer Raymond Lauchengco on January 21 at 9:30 pm.
The OPM (Original Pilipino Music) icon is the opening salvo to CenterPlay’s Concert Series this year, a monthly entertainment show focused on celebrating Pilipino music. His highly anticipated return follows a successful CenterPlay concert in 2024.
Music fans will certainly relive the 80’s and swoon over Lauchengco’s hit songs “So It’s You” and “Farewell” from the original soundtrack of the 80’s coming-of-age film “Bagets” which he also starred in and propelled him among the heartthrobs of that decade. The other favorites among his repertoire are “I Need You Back”, “Saan Darating ang Umaga”, “Shadow of Time”, and “Nothing’s Gonna Change my Love for You”.
Following the successful film release in 1984 of Bagets, he was the Philippine representative to the prestigious Tokyo Music Festival in 1987. He has performed in over 30 countries as a concert and recording artist through the decades, along with directing numerous international live events. A recipient of the 2007 Aliw Award for Best Concert Collaboration for the concert series, The Best of Us, with Ayen Laurel, Lauchengco has also acted in various theatrical productions, television shows and films. A multi-faceted artist, he recently ventured into writing, painting, and sculpture.
Raymond Lauchengco Live at CenterPlay will be followed by “Soul Siren” Nina on February 16 and Gabby Concepcion on March 18. The first quarter roster of artists comes on the heels of sought after concerts of Ariel Rivera and Jaya in December, and other OPM stars featured at CenterPlay over the past year, including Janno Gibbs, Neocolours, Moira, Juan Karlos, Rey Valera, Noel Cabangon, Ice Seguerra, “Soul Siren” Nina, Jinky Vidal, Jed Madela, Yeng Constantino, Daryl Ong, Imago, and The CompanY. Lauchengco’s anticipated concert also highlights performances from bands Moranos, Highschool Playlist, and Le Chic who are set to perform alternately from 6 pm to 3 am.
Guests can reserve a seat or a table with consumables starting at P3,500, comprising of bar nosh, burgers, fries, and beverages. VIP couch seats for a party of eight, and smaller seatings are also available. Designed for the ultimate entertainment experience, CenterPlay is a cool snack and cocktail lounge offering light meals, signature cocktail concoctions, beers, wines, and other beverages, and is built around the circular stage at the center of the main gaming floor.
“”Mature” proved a perfect point of re-entry, pushing Duff’s sound in new directions while still feeling quintessentially Hilary” – VOGUE
Multiplatinum global superstar Hilary Duff has just released “Roommates”, the second single from her highly anticipated new album, ‘luck… or something’, arriving everywhere via Atlantic Records on Friday, February 20. Fans can listen to the single here and pre-save the album here.
“Roommates” is co-written by Duff with her husband, GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter/producer Matthew Koma (Britney Spears, P!nk), and Brian Phillips (Alec Benjamin, blink-182) and co-produced by Koma and Phillips.
“Roommates is a song about when life is life-ing, babe,” says Hilary. “It’s that ache for a wilder, freer time – before the days were swallowed by carpools, budget talks, grocery runs and letting old or new insecurities slip in. It’s the restless hum of wanting to find your way back – to your rhythm, to your person, to yourself“.
Following the track’s release, an official music video directed by Matty Peacock (Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande) brings the song to life.

Duff’s sixth studio album, ‘luck… or something’, also features the acclaimed lead single “Mature”, available everywhere now. Hailed by VOGUE for “pushing Duff’s sound in new directions while still feeling quintessentially Hilary”, the sardonic, shimmering track quickly amassed over 5 million global streams in its first week. Inspired by romantic misadventures from her formative years, “Mature” unfolds as a piece of autofiction set against bright pop production and layered with Duff’s signature wit and vulnerability. The song is accompanied by an evocative music video directed by Lauren Dunn (Olivia Rodrigo, Dove Cameron, Saweetie), which has garnered over 3.3 million views and counting on YouTube, alongside an exclusive behind-the-scenes mini-documentary from the shoot.
Building on this momentum, Hilary will celebrate the release of ‘luck… or something’ next week with her “Small Rooms, Big Nerves” dates—an instantly sold-out run of intimate live shows across the UK and US. The performances mark her first headline concert appearances in over a decade, making them a major milestone in this exciting new chapter of her career.

Wolf Gemora, the award winning drummer of Wolfgang is arriving this Friday, January 9 from the United States to begin rehearsals for the highly-anticipated Wolfgang Reunion Concert on February 7 at the New Frontier Theater.
The concert is part of the band’s 30th Anniversary celebrations.
Gemora migrated to the United States following the release and initial promotions of Wolfgang’s fifth studio album, Black Mantra in 2002, and the reunion concert will mark his first performance with the band in 23 years.
“I’m going back to Manila,” enthused Gemora on the eve of his flight homeward. “It’s going to be four weeks of intense rehearsals for the reunion show. In the meantime, I’m going to watch my favorite local bands and eat my favorite local food.
His other bandmates likewise could not contain their enthusiasm.
“I have been and always will be proud of what Wolfgang has achieved through the years. Wolf was a part of the band’s genesis so there is a lot of history there,” shared guitarist Manuel Legarda. We are going to be revisiting key portions of that history and I am thoroughly excited to be sharing that stage with Wolf after all these years. If Mon (Legaspi, who passed away in 2022) were still around, I am sure he would feel the same way. I’m also excited for the fans who have been wanting this reunion as well.
Added vocalist Basti Artadi, “I’m excited to play and sing along with the fans and hopefully take them back to a time when music was the most important thing in their lives. Like a metal Oasis!”
Gemora was part of the band’s most productive era from 1995-2001 where they released their self-titled debut album followed by Semenelin, Wurm, Serve in Silence, the live album Acoustica, and then, Black Mantra. Aside from being best-sellers, they were critically-acclaimed and nominated for music awards.
The band continued with Francis Aquino behind the drum kit and released one more album in Villains (2008) and the mini-album Ang Bagong Dugo Sa Lumang Ugat – Unang Kabanata (2012).
“We hope to see you at the Wolfgang Reunion Concert this February 7,” concluded Gemora in his final words before boarding his flight from Los Angeles for Manila.
When tickets to the Wolfgang Reunion Concert presented by Ovation Productions with Blast TV as the official media partner were made available last December 8 via ticketnet.com.ph, all these seated sections quickly sold out. As of today, there are still tickets available for the VIP (standing) area closest to the stage with tickets priced AT PHP 5700.
Maymay Entrata channels her journey from pain to empowerment in her cathartic and powerful new song titled “Masunog Man.”
The Kapamilya actress-singer shared that the anthem—centered on resilience, strength, and liberation—was inspired by her experience of pain and healing during her mother’s illness and eventual passing.
“Itong ‘Masunog Man’ ay nagrereflect siya sa kung paano ako magmahal. Two years ago, hindi po ako nag-share kung ano yung pinagdaanan ko. Na-diagnose ang nanay ko ng malubhang sakit at pinili ko na hindi ko siya ibahagi sa publiko,” the “Roja” star told the audience present at the “Masunog Man” launch last Wednesday.
“Hindi po maiwasan yung panahon na nasaktan ako pero dahil sa strength na ibinibigay ng Panginoon sa akin pinili kong lumaban. Even po I’m still hurting at yung hurt na yun nagsi-symbolize siya ng parang burn, parang nasusunog ako inside dahil sa sobrang sakit na nararamdaman ko nung panahon na yun, pero masaya naman ako after po nun dahil naintindihan naman ng karamihan yung pinagdaanan ko,” Maymay explained.
She also shared that she wants to dedicate “Masunog Man” to those who are going through a similar ordeal.
“Gusto ko ipamahagi itong kanta dun sa mga lumalaban nang tahimik na sana po hindi nyo pagsisihan lahat ng sakripisyong binigay nyo dahil nagmamahal lang naman kayo, nagmamahal lang naman tayo ng walang hinihiling na kapalit,” she said.
“Masunog Man” is her latest single under ABS-CBN’s StarPop label. Her growing discography includes “Amakabogera,” “Paradise,” “Tsada Mahigugma,” and more.

The new song, which is joined by an official video directed by Bruno and Daniel RamosHERE, offers a glimpse into the new project—officially arriving everywhere on February 27. You can pre-save the album and pre-order the exclusive first-pressing numbered vinyl now HERE, while supplies last.
“I Just Might” also arrives on the heels of yesterday’s announcement of The Romantic Tour, which marks Bruno’s first full headline tour in nearly a decade following the massively successful 24K Magic World Tour, which first launched in 2017. Produced by Live Nation, the 2026 tour will be the first full headlining stadium tour by the GRAMMY® Award-winning performer. The tour will span nearly 40 shows across North America, Europe, and the UK, marking one of the biggest global outings of the year.
The tour launches on Friday, April 10, in Las Vegas, NV, at Allegiant Stadium and will see Mars bring his larger-than-life energy to major cities including Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, Toronto, Paris, Amsterdam, Milan, Denver, Miami, and more. Along the way, he’ll headline some of the world’s most iconic venues, with back-to-back shows at Rogers Stadium in Toronto, Wembley Stadium in London, MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Joining Mars across all dates is nine-time GRAMMY® award-winning artist and Silk Sonic collaborator Anderson .Paak as DJ Pee .Wee. Additional support will be provided by Victoria Monét, RAYE, and Leon Thomas across select markets. Fans can check their local listings for more details.
All North American dates on The Romantic Tour are sponsored by MGM Resorts International and The Pinky Ring at Bellagio.
This new tour builds on an incredible few years of global performances for Mars, including his acclaimed Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM and an extensive and record-breaking international touring run throughout Australia, Asia, the Middle East, and South America. In early 2024, Mars became the first international artist of the 21st century to hold seven consecutive sold-out concerts at the Tokyo Dome. Notably, in the fall of 2024, he achieved the highest-grossing tour in Brazilian history, performing 14 sold-out stadium shows across Brazil, spanning five cities—Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília, Belo Horizonte, and Curitiba. In August of 2024, Mars also opened Los Angeles’ brand-new arena, Intuit Dome, with two sold-out performances, one of which featured a surprise on-stage duet with Lady Gaga, where they debuted the first live performance of “Die with a Smile.”
Both the tour and new album come in the wake of Bruno’s continued chart success, with recent singles including the GRAMMY® award-winning “Die With A Smile” with Lady Gaga, which became the fastest song in Spotify history to reach one billion streams and topped the Billboard Global 200 Chart for a record-tying 18 weeks, as well as the pervasive “APT.” with ROSÉ—the latter of which was just crowned the most globally streamed song of 2025 by Apple Music, and scored 19 weeks at number one on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. Chart and 12 weeks at number one on the Billboard Global 200 Chart. Beyond its massive global chart achievements, “APT.” also won “Song of the Year” at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, and earned three nominations at this year’s 68th Annual GRAMMY® Awards for “Song of the Year,” “Record of the Year,” and “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.”
Bruno continues to prove himself as one of the most influential forces within the music industry. In January 2025, he became the first artist in Spotify history to surpass 150 million monthly listeners, ranking him among the platform’s top global artists. In October 2022, he became the first artist in RIAA history to earn six Diamond-certified singles. As of 2026, he has reached at least seven RIAA Diamond certifications for songs including “Just the Way You Are,” which is now the highest-certified song in history at 21x RIAA Platinum, “Uptown Funk” (with Mark Ronson), “Grenade,” “That’s What I Like,” “When I Was Your Man,” “Locked Out of Heaven,” and the “The Lazy Song.” His debut album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, is the longest-running studio album by a solo male artist on the Billboard 200, with over 345 weeks on the chart. He has secured nine Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles and has spent a total of 30 weeks atop the Global 200 with his 2024–2025 hits.
