Philadelphia’s genre-smashing duo GHÖSH released a new single and music video titled ‘Devil Lady’ and announced their new EP PRISMASSIVE, out May 26 on Ramp Local. “I have a difficult relationship with religion,” says GHÖSH vocalist Symphony Spell about the new single. “I grew up Baptist and I hated it. Church was always a place where I felt alienated and judged. I went to the kind of church and was raised by the kind of people who find the devil in anything they don’t like. The devil is in heavy music, the devil is in dark clothing, the devil is gay and slutty. I spent a lot of time afraid of the devil even though the devil seemed to be everywhere, in everything I love. Once I decided to honor the evil in myself, I felt liberated by the power. I have spent a lot of time trying to find the archetype for evil that is powerful, feminine and coquettish. Who is the hot goddess of the underworld or the powerful witch who’s actually pretty cute? There aren’t a lot out there; evil women are so often portrayed as haggard hermits. I wrote this song to help myself embody that creature. I reference some of my favorite feminine mythological entities like harpies, sirens, Pomba Gira and Strega Nona as means to harness their energy. Honoring the wickedness in the divine feminine is radical. It feels deliciously mischievous to declare that so proudly. Am I possessed? I might be.”
Chicago newcomer RG Coca releases her new single ‘Lost It’. In the track’s visual, we see her confidence and undeniable creativity on full display, as we watch her escape the law after a failed heist.

Multi-platinum recording artist Coi Leray, has released two new singles: ‘Bops’ and ‘My Body’ via Uptown Records/Republic Records. The fittingly-titled track ‘Bops’, finds Coi proudly proving her success as a chart-topping artist who can crank up a smash hit after hit.
The combination of Rico Nasty and 100 Gecs has already proven electric. Now the brash rap iconoclast and hyperpop poster children have linked up again. ‘Turn It Up’ is not the genre-bending head trip you might expect from a Rico x Gecs summit. It’s a hard, straightforward hip-hop track with lots of empty space for Rico’s bloodthirsty growl to roam around in. The track arrives with a video by Isaac Garcia in which Rico plays a house cleaner who terrorizes a hapless suburban couple. [via Stereogum]
