Though winter has been predicted to continue raging on for six more weeks, new music releases have been heating up! With everything from EDM to pop to R&B, Team EnVi has collected songs to motivate you to keep on fighting this week.
ATEEZ – “Adrenaline”
As part of the latest album in their Golden Hour series, K-pop group ATEEZ is back with an energetic track, “Adrenaline.” Despite the way the world seems to slow, the members run at their own intense pace in the music video. “You know my taste / Move outta way,” sings Wooyoung in the intro, effectively stating how the group refuses to stop their momentum as artists.
“Hardcore, that’s the way we do it,” raps Hongjoong in the first verse, referencing ATEEZ’s signature EDM sound and intensity when performing. From the first sounds of the bass bouncing in the intro, listeners can’t help but fall in step to the rhythm. The instrumental builds up to the rush of the chorus, synth thrumming as the members’ voices grow louder.
When the beat drops, the sound echoes the blood rushing in your ears from adrenaline. As exciting as it is to observe as the audience or dance along to, “Adrenaline” contains a deeper message. ATEEZ encourages others to pursue passion without hesitation, as there’s “No pit stop, no time for the slow.” Caught on the dance floor wanting more?

J. Cole – “Two Six”
Rapper J. Cole revealed in an Instagram post that he created his latest album, The Fall-Off, as possibly the last album in his discography. With this fact in mind, his words hold more emotional weight and passion. In “Two Six,” J. Cole ruminates on his career and pays homage to the city he grew up in, Fayetteville.
From using his hometown’s nickname as the song’s title to the shots presented in the music video, J. Cole shows how in touch he is with his origins. Rather than exaggerated humility, he displays how his confidence is grounded in his identity in “Two Six.” J. Cole subverts expectations, referencing the scale of his success as an artist hailing from a small town in the first verse. The song’s instrumental further supports this message with the incorporation of string sections alongside heavy drum loops, an unexpected blend of the classical hip-hop genres.
The second verse speeds up J. Cole’s flow, before he slows and sings softly in the outro. He also issues a warning to both his past self and new artists: “Be careful of the devil and the melodies you hum / Smilin’, goin’ viral while infectin’ all of the young.” Acutely aware of the influence popular artists have, J. Cole has become careful to spread more messages for good.
HNATA – “should’ve known better”
Indonesian singer-songwriter HNATA brings the best of electronica and indie-pop in his new single, “should’ve known better.” Designated as the “trash pop professional” on his socials, HNATA channels the pastiche of youth in this track. He laments about the weight of imposter syndrome and the burnout that comes with being an artist, singing “that there’s days like these / got me kicking and screaming.” The contrast of the frustratingly relatable lyrics paired with the upbeat electronic beat cements the track as an easy-listening anthem.
The song fits right at home among staples of the genre like Porter Robinson, who HNATA named in a press release as an inspiration. The single gives listeners a hint of what to expect from HNATA’s upcoming debut album SAYONARA!, slated for release in mid-2026. Should listeners want a fresh take on electronic bedroom pop, “should’ve known better” is a great place to start.
MONSTA X – “growing pains”
Just days after kicking off their 2026 world tour THE X : NEXUS, K-pop group MONSTA X return with their first new track of the year, “growing pains.” Adding to their repertoire of English singles, “growing pains” is a heartwarming track reflecting on MONSTA X’s journey to where they are now. A reassuring, upbeat acoustic guitar accompanies tender lyrics as the members sing about their resolve to branch out and grow. “I left home behind when I was just eighteen,” member Joohoney sings, “Poured my soul into the stage, thinking who I’ll be.” The track was released alongside a casual, self-filmed music video featuring the members at the beach, in the studio, and walking the streets while mouthing the lyrics to the song.
The single comes at a bittersweet time. Youngest member I.M is scheduled to enlist in the military on February 9 to complete his mandatory conscription. In preparation, he took to the stage at the KSPO Dome in Seoul and, with the help of his group members, shaved his head in front of MONSTA X’s devoted fans, MONBEBE. Although fans across the world will miss him on stage, they’ll have “growing pains” to comfort them in this time of bittersweet growth.
rhyu – “Go Away Green”
Singaporean singer-songwriter rhyu is here to give listeners all the relatability they need with “Go Away Green.” With a thick R&B tempo, “Go Away Green” dives into the concept of imposter syndrome and how mentally difficult it can be to get over this mindset.
While the song may initially sound like it’s asking the color to leave, the title “Go Away Green” is actually the name of a very specific shade of the color. In a press release, it’s explained that “‘Go Away Green’ refers to the paint colour of the same name that is used in theme parks to camouflage buildings and infrastructure in the background to divert attention away from them and allow parkgoers to focus on the colourful rides.” The song plays off of this concept by rhyu relating to Go Away Green and asking to turn into the color.
Through this single, rhyu has brought listeners a song that she hopes will bring comfort to those who need it. Since this is her first release of the year, she’s sure to have more up her sleeve for 2026.
ZAYN – “Die For Me”
Released as a preview of his upcoming album, KONNAKOL, ZAYN transitions to a dark sound in “Die For Me.” Accompanied by bass riffs, crashing drums, and deep synth, ZAYN’s heavy sentiments are audibly felt. Themed around the betrayal of a lover who he trusted to support him, this track signals ZAYN’s new musical direction.
ZAYN claims his lover has lied about their true feelings, and that their love was not strong enough to make them stay together. Pushed past the point of sympathy, he sings, “If you have a heart, rip it up, let it bleed / ‘Cause you said you would die for me.” ZAYN’s tone is heavy with emotion, truly distraught at the broken promises between lovers.
Visuals from the music video capture the turmoil ZAYN experiences after heartbreak. Lightning strikes, fire spreads, rain pours, and wind hurls debris around as he stews in the lies of a lover. “You said you would die for me,” he laments in the chorus, “Gave you my heart, don’t you dare let it go.” The relationship between the two lovers is shaky, caused by the mistrust between them. For all those who find themselves mourning a relationship during this month of love, ZAYN is here to sympathize.
Tame Impala and JENNIE – “Dracula – JENNIE Remix”
Since Kevin Parker debuted as Tame Impala from his Perth, Australia, home on Myspace in 2007, he has been carefully crafting his sonic world. Though it is a little bit of Pink Floyd-cum-Sylvester with a little bit of Grace Jones sprinkled throughout, failing to note Parker’s own flair for a psychedelic, electronic pop rock sound would be an injustice to his musical savviness. It’s something he flexes in his discography by performing and producing all the vocals and instrumentations solo, rarely inviting other artists for collaborations.
So, it’s only natural that the musical world was set abuzz when Tame Impala announced that JENNIE is hopping on a song. And not just any song — the BLACKPINK member is putting her own twist on “Dracula,” Tame Impala’s first shot at a Billboard Hot 100 entry. Her addition to the synthy disco track never feels shoehorned. JENNIE lays down bars that nod to the original release, reaching vocals that float as high as Tame Impala’s own. It’s no surprise that she’s someone who’d fit right into this atmospheric track; anyone who has listened to her solo album Ruby (and fell particularly in love with “ZEN” and “Seoul City”) would know.

4EVE – “Girls Like Me”
What does a TikTok-famous model, a Miss Teen Laos runner-up, and a YG Entertainment auditionee have in common? They — Punch, Hannah, and Aheye, respectively — are now members of the Thai girl group 4EVE, a septet that has Mind, Jorin, Taaom, and Fai rounding out the lineup. Though they’ve been garnering various awards in Thailand’s music scene, the girls are now expanding globally thanks to a collaboration with 88rising.
The collaboration also marks an evolution of their sound. Since striking the partnership in mid-2025, 4EVE has incorporated trap, hip hop, dance, and hyperpop into their repertoire. Their latest EP GLOW was the genesis of this experimentation, paving the way for this new single to feel familiar, yet fresh. “Girls Like Me” treats this sound as a canvas for their version of femininity, which is simultaneously singularly unique (demonstrated through their distinct individual styles) and ubiquitous. The latter is told through a perspective of independence and confidence à la Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild.” After all, girls like them “don’t play with boys like you” — boys who have an awful choice in friends, think diamonds can buy their love, and toy with their hearts.
Mitski – “I’ll Change for You”
Known for her heartbreaking hits, Mitski is back with the pre-release single “I’ll Change for You” ahead of the February 27 release of her eighth studio album, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me. In true Mitski fashion, the song carries a melancholy tone as the singer reflects on a love now lost. With vocals backed by The Land, an orchestral ensemble, the track is especially reminiscent of early 2000s warm jazz-pop.
The video for the song plays off of the fast-moving performance art style that one might see in a pop-art museum. One second, Mitski’s face is close to the camera, smiling brightly with quick-moving art layered over her face to alter her appearance. The next second, she is seen slowly moving and breathing in the emotions she is feeling. In the end, Mitski is seen screaming, releasing her true emotions. The singer was the creative director on the project, as well as the sole composer and lyricist of the track. With every note and visual under Mitski’s control, this song and the upcoming album are going to stand as testaments to her current musicality and where she will be taking listeners in the future.
Other tracks in this week’s Sunday Spin playlist include “Might Just” by Ella Mai, “Hotel California” by Joji, and “Flip Flap” by CHANMINA. Listen to everything mentioned and more, curated by Team EnVi only for you on Spotify.
