The Final Playlist Dump of June 2026

The final New Music Friday of June is upon us, and it marks another big week for the hip-hop underground – as well as the pop girlies. Maxo Kream, YoungBoy NBA, Lil Got It, and Jadasea all lifted the veil on new longform projects, with Opraah, Laila!, El Cousteau and EsDeeKid all revealing singles. Phoebe Bridgers also made her anticipated return to the scene with “Lost Boys,” with Charli XCX and Ravyn Lenae both continuing to roll out their respective forthcoming records.

Atlanta’s Lil Got It has been quietly building toward his latest project, EVERYTHING OR NOTHING, which finally arrives as his most focused statement yet. Following recent singles “Goin Solo” and “Woosah,” the project showcases the evolution of his melodic Atlanta sound while staying true to the signature energy that put him on the map in the first place. The YSL ties are still felt throughout, but this is Gotit stepping into his own lane, with assistance from fellow underground forces: Destroy Lonely, Nine Vicious, LUCKI, and 1300SAINT.

Maxo Kream is back. O.Y.N pairs Houston’s most consistent storyteller with his most provocative collaborator yet. Produced entirely by JPEGMAFIA, the more “experimental”- leaning project is inspired by the rapper’s first trip to Lagos, Nigeria. Fellow contributors include Denzel Curry and Isaiah Falls.

Fresh off the premiere of “Simulation” at Pharrell‘s Parisian Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2026 showcase, NBA Youngboy has dropped the second iteration of his More Leaks series. As the title suggests, YB continues to flip the “leak” narrative on its head, compiling all the cuts that didn’t make the final project into one lengthy, chaotic-in-the-best-possible-way project.

Landing as an expansion of 2024’s Your Day Will Come, Chanel Beads sophomore studio project is just as vast and expansive as ever.

10’s London affiliate is asserting himself once again on yet another impressive studio project. Jadasea has been rolling out Holly Grove for a few months now, and the project, released by way of 10k records, of course, is here at last. Inspired by his UK upbringing, the autobiographical record features appearances from fellow 10k commander MIKE, and artists Anysia Kym, and duendita. Fellow local Londoner and recent Hypetrak cover star John Glacier also assists.

On FearDorian‘s latest genre-blurring project, Tease, Vol. 1, the rising underground rapper/producer draws influence from across the board, ranging from traditional SoundCloud rap to Midwest emo.

AG Club rapper Jody Fontaine has gone solo for the first time, lifting the veil on his debut studio LP as an individual artist. Thank You, Goodnight clocks in at four tracks.

Another recent Hypetrak talent, Berlin electronic duo – producer Theo Zeitner and vocalist Victoria Vassiliki Daldas – has shared their latest longform endeavor, Harmony, which hears Boys Noize and Anya Taylor-Joy hop on the 13-song tracklist.

Arriving the week after his first headlining world tour, sososamo has dropped off the aptly entitled homesick. The EP marks the rising rapper’s first release since February’s Big Country.

The second single and first feature from Steve Lacy‘s imminent Oh Yeah? The album is also confirmed to feature Erykah Badu, with additional credits coming from Tyler, the Creator, Fousheé, and Ravyn Lenae.

Not a new release, but new to streaming. Thanks, Tyler, for the long-overdue two-pack.

WILLOW is back with another glimpse into what her return album has to offer, sharing “She’s My Religion.”

Fresh off a busy run, beabadoobee returns with “Sun Has Set,” which also signals the lead single from the songstress’ Pylon project.

Liim collaborator Opraah keeps building momentum with “I cant get up.” The rising NYC artist presents a track that feels as vulnerable as it is self-assured. If you haven’t been paying attention yet, now’s a good time to start.

One of the underground’s most intriguing voices, El Cousteau continues to carve out his own lane with “twiceasblue+.” The track blurs the boundaries between rap, soul, and experimental production.

Phoebe Bridgers makes a welcome return with “Lost Boys.” Surely it will be on loop until Lost Weekend drops.

As the lead single of Future’s forthcoming The Real Me album, “Radio” arrives as another reminder of the Atlanta icon’s reign and undying consistency.

Music Fashion Film is shaping up to be a fun one, with “Wink Wink” the newest cut from the Charli XCX-helmed endeavor.

The NYC sibling duo keeps their experimental pop momentum going with “Satellites,” a track that floats between euphoria and unease in their signature style. Both danceable and disorienting, in true Frost Children fashion.

The Smashing Pumpkins cover we didn’t know we needed may have just come from … Tame Impala?

In the middle of dominating Paris Fashion Week, EsDeeKid quietly unveiled “RockWave,” which, as its title suggests, blends wavy, melodic rap with guitar-driven textures.

Ravyn Lenae’s Blue Island is definitely somewhere we want to be this summer. Especially on a “Saturday Night.”

A striking two-pack from the enigmatic Toronto-based Ye collaborator. Sean Leon is gearing up for his first rollout in a minute, and we’re sat for it.

Laila! keeps her breakout run going with “Miss Mango.” Bright, playful, and undeniably infectious, the single leans into the charisma that’s quickly made her one of R&B’s most exciting young voices
