New Music Friday: Big Time Rush Releases Their First Full-Length Project in Over a Decade and More

Big Time Rush is treating fans to a big time release as a part of this week’s New Music Friday!

For the first time in over ten years, Carlos PenaVega, James Maslow, Kendall Schmidt and Logan Henderson have teamed up to put out a full-length album, Another Life, and we seriously can’t contain our excitement.

Another Life serves as Big Time Rush’s fourth studio album, featuring pre-released singles like “Can’t Get Enough” and “Waves,” as well as eight other brand new tracks, ultimately kickstarting a brand new era for the popular boy band.

With 10 phenomenal songs, Another Life is truly a no skip project that will be even better live!

Lucky for fans everywhere, these live performances are coming even sooner than they may think…

Beginning in Fort Worth, Texas on June 22nd and ending in Las Vegas, Nevada on August 12th, Big Time Rush will be embarking on their highly-anticipated Can’t Get Enough Tour this summer, hitting a total of 36 cities all across North America.

In a press release from Live Nation, the band revealed that “the Can’t Get Enough Tour is going to be a wild ride.”

“Since our first shows back in 2021, we decided this isn’t a reunion. This is a comeback,” Big Time Rush shared. “The Can’t Get Enough Tour is going to be bigger than ever. We are pushing ourselves to make the best show possible so that every night is truly special.”

“This is going to be a tour you do not want to miss,” the band concluded.

Until we can catch Carlos, James, Kendall and Logan on the road, it is safe to say that we will have Another Life on repeat until further notice!

Aside from BTR, more of today’s biggest stars blew us away with some brand new tunes, including Machine Gun Kelly, Stray Kids, Madison Beer, Foo Fighters, Tove Lo, Gunna, Aidan Bissett, Kid Cudi, Alesso, Tïesto and more.

One of the most notable releases on this week’s New Music Friday playlist is METRO BOOMIN PRESENTS SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE (SOUNDTRACK FROM AND INSPIRED BY THE MOTION PICTURE), where the chart-topping rapper assembled his own group of superheroes.

Serving as the official soundtrack of the brand new Marvel movie, the 13-track project includes features from Swae Lee, Lil Wayne, Offset, A$AP Rocky, Roisee, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, JID, James Blake, NAV, A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, EI8HT, Offset, Don Toliver, Wizkid, BEAM, Toian, Coi Leray, 21 Savage, 2 Chainz and Nas — Could you imagine a more star-studded lineup?
