SPOTTED ON NEW MUSIC FRIDAY PLAYLIST

“Aren't you lonely/Up there in utopia,” Katy Perry sings in her newest Capitol single "Chained to the Rhythm," and we have this uncomfortable feeling that she’s standing on Hollywood Boulevard and directing that line to the HITS office. The track leads off Spotify’s New Music Friday playlist.

Besides Katy Perry f/Skip Marley’s “Chained to the Rhythm,” the playlist features two tracks from UStudios/Republic’s Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack, Sia’s “Helium” and Corinne Bailey Rae’s “The Scientist,” Rag’n’Bone Man’s “Fade to Nothing” (Columbia), Desiigner’s “Outlet” (G.O.D./Def Jam), Jidenna’s “Bambi” (Epic), Milky Chance’s “Ego” (Republic), Serbian’s remix of The Bee Gees’ “Stayin’ Alive” (Capitol), R3hab’s remix of DJ Snake f/Justin Bieber’s “Let Me Love You” (Interscope), Sigrid’s “Don’t Kill My Vibe” (Island) and Bush’s “Mad Love” (Zuma Rock/Caroline).
