Latto unveiled her third studio album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea , featuring contributions from Ciara , Coco Jones , Hunxho , Young Nudy , Teezo Touchdown , Megan Thee Stallion and Mariah the Scientist . Sugar Honey Iced Tea is the follow-up to 2022’s 777, which reached No. 15 on the Billboard 200 off the strength of its breakout single “Big Energy.”

Meanwhile, Shawn Mendes made his comeback with single “Why Why Why,” which leads the star’s upcoming album, Shawn . Last month, Mendes shared a message for fans about the project, writing, “Music really can be medicine. 2 years ago I felt like I had absolutely no idea who I was. A year ago I couldn’t step into a studio without falling into complete panic. So to be here right now with 12 beautiful finished songs feels like such a gift.”

Katy Perry also continued her 143 rollout with new single “Lifetimes.” Perry said in a press statement, “‘Lifetimes’ is a song about eternal love. It’s about finding that one deep and satisfying love of your life. A soulmate doesn’t always have to come in the form of a partner – it can come in all different ways, a child, a best friend, a pet. For me it is my daughter – I ask her every night, ‘Will you find me in every lifetime?’ She says yes, and I feel found. You’ll find each other, over and over again, for lifetimes.”
