READY FOR A SUMMER HEAT WAVE?

On Friday, 7/9, a handful of hitmakers will drop new singles.

Darkroom/Interscope's Billie Eilish will release the fifth single from her upcoming sophomore album, Happier Than Ever. She has announced that the song "NDA" and an accompanying video will arrive Friday.

Rising Columbia star The Kid LAROI is issuing his much-teased collaboration with Justin Bieber, "Stay." It's TKL's first release since signing with Scooter Braun's SB Projects for management. The new track, produced by "Without You" hitmakers Blake Slatkin and Omer Fedi with Charlie Puth, follows LAROI's breakthrough album, 2020's F*ck Love.

Republic superstar Post Malone, meanwhile, is rumored to be returning on Friday with the first taste of his new work, "Motley Crew." While the premiere of the song has yet to be officially announced, management and track producers have teased it for Friday.

Likewise dropping on Friday is another pop pairing from country star Kane Brown, "Memory" (RCA/RCA Nashville) with blackbear. Over the last two years, he's put out singles with Khalid, Marshmello and Swae Lee.

BTS B-side "Permission to Dance" (Big Hit/Columbia), co-written by Ed Sheeran, is also poised to throw its weight around.

Don't finalize your "songs of summer" lists just yet.
