The verdict is in: Justice and Tame Impala are an unstoppable combo. For the second week in a row, the French dance duo have topped the charts on the strength of the two singles we’ve heard in advance of their new LP Hyperdrama (due April 26 via Ed Banger/Because Music). Unsurprisingly, the collab with Tame Impala, “One Night/All Night,” has taken the lead when it comes to spins and every time we hear it, we get even more anxious to hear the full album. Luckily, April will be here sooner than any of us can imagine. 

New and notable: Tierra Whack’s “SHOWER SONG” is well on its way to becoming the official anthem of 2024 so go ahead and commit it to memory now.
