The Weeknd has announced the second instalment of his Beats 1 Memento Mori radio show, over two months on from June’s first episode.

A clip accompanying the announcement on his Instagram also seems to tease new music from the singer, backing up rumours of the impending release of his new EP ‘We’re Alone Together’ later in the week.

Yesterday further sources pointed to an all-new collaboration with Miguel and Rihanna landing this week too; titled ‘Switching Sides‘ it’s likely that Abel’s latest radio show could be the first time we hear any speculations put to rest.

Catch the teaser in full below; Memento Mori kicks off tomorrow (23rd August) at 5pm GMT.

Hear Disclosure’s latest new song, ‘Love Can Be So Hard’

Speculatively, whilst their first press release confirmed that there’s still no news of any kind of album, we reckon there’s something pretty big cooking up here… It’s all quite exciting, isn’t it?

Just over a week on from the release of her new album ‘Queen’, more new Nicki Minaj music has surfaced, this time hearing her reunite with Jason Derulo, David Guetta and Willy William.

Titled ‘Goodbye’, the song is set for release this coming Friday, 24th August, however seemingly the track has now leaked online early (we were dubious of this being the final edit, but according to Shazam, everything does indeed stack up).

It’s yet to be confirmed whether ‘Goodbye’ will be the first track from Derulo’s anticipated new album ‘2Sides’, the follow-up to 2015’s ‘Everything Is 4’ – guess we’ll find out more once the song gets its official release.
