The MixtapE! Presents The Weeknd, Maren Morris and More New Music

New music Fridays are a thrilling, yet daunting prospect for any music lover. 

It’s essentially a weekly holiday where fan-favorite artists and fresh faces alike drop their latest offerings for all the world to hear, flooding streaming services and digital retailers with an onslaught of aural goodies (and if we’re being honest, usually a few stinkers, too). But who has the time to sit there and listen to everything before updating their playlists? 

As it turns out, we do. Welcome to The MixtapE!

A New Year means time for a new playlist.

Artists from various genres are kicking off 2022 on all the right notes thanks to their latest music releases. For starters, Maren Morris is ready to begin a new era with the release of “Circles Around This Town.” 

“Once I got the demo back, I just knew that this was the first single,” she said on Apple Music 1’s New Music Daily. “This was the first chapter of what this era would be for me with the third record, and it just makes me feel good to listen to.”
