Uproxx cover star Chlöe made waves yesterday (August 5) when she shared the aquatic cover art for her upcoming album, Trouble In Paradise. As the project’s August 9 release date gets closer, Chlöe has unveiled the tracklist.

The tune on the 16-track album that most immediately stands out is “Want Me,” which features sister Halle Bailey and is therefore essentially a Chloe x Halle reunion. Also featured on the album are Ty Dolla Sign, Anderson .Paak, YG Marley, and Jeremih.

Meanwhile, Chlöe unveiled some other new music last month via an appearance on Tinashe’s “Nasty Girl” remix.

Gwen Stefani & Anderson .Paak Pen An Anthem For The Olympics With “Hello World”

by

Gwen Stefani and Anderson .Paak received a high honor from the International Olympic Committee and Coca-Cola. Both major corporations tasked these two musical superstars with creating a theme song for this year’s Games and the one’s to come after them. Also in the mix is singer, songwriter, and producer, Ryan Tedder. He has been behind his fair share of mega radio hits throughout his career, so his selection was a no-brainer. Together, Gwen Stefani, .Paak, and Tedder have come up with “Hello World – Song of The Olympics”. According to Billboard, Josh Burke, the global head of music and culture marketing at the Coca-Cola Company, explained why Tedder is a part of this record and the idea that came to be.

“We wanted a song with broad appeal that would resonate worldwide, an uplifting and bright song that would inspire everyday greatness among athletes and music fans. It was also important to us that we wouldn’t try to create a ‘brand’ song or ‘jingle’, and we’d have to give up some control, which is very difficult to do!”. Tedder was totally game for the collaboration, saying “The Games are an important way for all of us to come together and celebrate each other globally, and we wrote this song with that in mind. I grew up watching every Olympics since childhood, so this is a lifelong dream. I hope this song inspires and uplifts”.

“Hello World – Song Of The Olympics”- Gwen Stefani & Anderson .Paak

Quotable Lyrics:

Slide on the worldwide stage
Nothing can divide when we on one page
We can defy the odds and make way
When we link, it’s a bond that never can break
Electric, the motion
Connection, that’s the focus

Anderson .Paak And Gwen Stefani Could Medal In Vibes Based On Their ‘Hello World (Song Of The Olympics)’ Video

by

The 2024 Paris Olympics will kick off on Friday, July 26. Céline Dion and Lady Gaga are expected to perform at the opening ceremony, but Anderson .Paak and Gwen Stefani got a head start.

On Thursday, July 25, Anderson .Paak and Stefani released “Hello World (Song of The Olympics™)” with a video posted to the Olympics’ official YouTube channel.

“The Olympics and The Coca-Cola Company teamed up with Ryan Tedder, Gwen Stefani, and Anderson .Paak to create a song that celebrates the magic that happens when the world comes together at the Olympic Games,” the YouTube description reads.

Tedder co-produced and co-wrote the feel-good anthem. In the video, .Paak sets the tone by singing, “Hello, world, where ya been? / I’ve been waiting for you and your friends / One love begins / Tip-top, we’re starting at ten / If you believe that we can make some magic happen, say yeah.”

.Paak’s performance is spliced with footage of Olympic athletes being generally awesome, and eventually, we’re joined by a glittery Stefani. “I was mindin’ my business, taking care of business,” she sings. “Doin’ my thing / Woke up in the middle of the night like, ‘Ooh’ / Heard the telephone ring / I don’t need to tell you, I don’t need to explain / It’s ‘Hello World,’ we showin’ up, we changing the game.”

The 2024 Paris Olympics will run from July 26 to August 11, and you can expect to hear this song umpteen times in between.

NxWorries And Thundercat Turn Heartbreak Into Gold With Their New Collab, ‘KeepHer’

by

After eight years, Anderson .Paak and Knxwledge have reunited NxWorries. Tonight (June 14), as NxWorries, the singer-producer duo has shared their second joint album, Why Lawd? on streaming platforms. Maintaining a groovy, soulful flow throughout the album, the pair enlisted Thundercat for the forlorn “KeepHer.”

On “KeepHer,” Thundercat supplies the guitar vibes throughout the song, and blesses the background with gorgeous vocals. He opens the song, setting the scene for a story of opulence and heartache.

“They say you gonna pay either way / And if this was made to be / It’s such a lovely dream / Why would you wanna wake me up?,” Thundercat sings in the intro.

Though neither artist refers to anyone by name, the song was likely inspired by Paak’s divorce from Jaylyn Chang, which was reported earlier this year.

Paak learns the hard way that money on its own isn’t enough to keep a good woman around.

“Jetlag when you show up / Coolin’ with a chauffeur / All I wanna do is spoil ya / But you know that the money won’t keep her,” sings Paak on the song’s chorus.

“KeepHer” marks one of Paak’s most poignant and self-aware songs, but showcases his ability to turn heartache into gold.

You can listen to “KeepHer” above.

Why Lawd? is out now via Stones Throw. Find more information here.
