Kim Petras has shared a new track, ‘Brrr’. The song is the artist's first brand-new work since November's 'If Jesus Was A Rockstar,' while there are rumours that more new music may be released throughout 2023. Petras describes the industrial-inspired pop track as a “bad b***h anthem” which is about “knowing what you want and finding someone who isn’t intimidated by you that will come closer and show you how cool they are.” The singer later took to Instagram to say the rollout for the track “was one of the funnest I’ve done in a while”, adding: “I miss you all so much and I hope this song gives you a taste of what’s to come this year . I’m so excited to perform it for you soon! Let me know if you dig it … brrr-ah” Additionally, Petras and Sam Smith's song ‘Unholy’ was nominated for the BRIT Award for ‘Song of the Year’.

Queen has started a new 50-week YouTube series called ‘Queen: The Greatest Live’ which will give fans a glimpse into the band's live performances. It is a follow-up to their previous series, ‘Queen: The Greatest,’ which was announced in March 2021 and covered the band's history from their early gigs to their current performances with Adam Lambert. The brand-new series promises “rare archive live footage, contemporary performances and behind-the-scenes interviews from across Queen’s five decades”. Simon Lupton, a longstanding band associate who has worked on the documentaries ‘Queen: Rock the World’, ‘Queen: Behind the Rhapsody’, ‘Queen: Days of Our Lives’, ‘Queen on Fire: Live at the Bowl’, and ‘Queen Live at Wembley '86’, created the series. He also produced ‘Queen: The Greatest’. Brian May and Roger Taylor discussed their rehearsal method and how they create set lists in the first episode of the new series.

Sometimes we forget that our favourite singers also live a life as scary and confusing as the rest of us. Celebrities need a medium to express their emotions and present their realities to the people who love them so much, and that is why they document their lives and give us a part of themselves. Let’s look at a few must watch documentaries based on the life of singers! Selena Gomez’s ‘My Mind & Me’ follows the singer’s journey over a period of six years, from the premature end of her ‘Revival’ tour in 2016 to who she is today. The documentary also elaborates upon her kidney transplant and her mental health issues at length. Selena Gomez began her career as a child actor, and then turned her life around with her amazing acting, singing and entrepreneurial skills. The documentary shows why despite her multiple stays in rehab facilities, she is still one of the most loved musicians in pop right now.  Taylor Swift’s ‘Miss Americana’ reflects on the singer’s lowest point in her career. This was when many people turned on her after the most controversial feud of the decade with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. Apart from that, the documentary shows her finally wrapping up the ‘Reputation’ tour and revealing her political views for the first time in her career.

Skrillex dropped his new single ‘Leave Me Like This’ with Bobby Raps. He teased the song shortly before its release. The track is expected to be on a new double album, which is likely to be put out this year. The producer and DJ recently collaborated on ‘Way Back’ with Pink Pantheress and Trippie Redd and on ‘Rumble’ with Four Tet and Fred Again. ‘Recess’ is his only full length record which was released in 2014.  Skrillex has hinted at new releases for a long time, as he has regularly told fans that he will be releasing “albums” in due time.  Following a 2 year span with no new releases, Skrillex dropped 4 singles in 2021: 'Butterflies' with Four Tet and Starrah, ‘Too Bizarre’ with Swae Lee and Siiickbrain, ‘Supersonic (My Existence)’ with Noisa, Josh Pan and Dylan Brady and ‘Don’t Go’ with Justin Bieber and Don Toliver.
