Michael Jackson Essentials

219438

by Apple Music Pop

Mit unzähligen Hits und Tanzeinlagen von einem anderen Stern hielt Michael Jackson über vier Jahrzehnte die Welt in Atem. Aus dem niedlichen Jungen, der gemeinsam mit seinen Brüdern als The Jackson Five umwerfenden Motown-Soul spielte, entwickelte sich im Laufe der Jahre der unumstrittene „King of Pop“, der nicht nur 1982 mit „Thriller“ das meistverkaufte Album aller Zeiten veröffentlichte, sondern mit seinen bahnbrechenden Musikvideos und elektrisierenden Live-Shows auch unsere heutige Vorstellung eines Popstars erst definierte. Hier findest du die besten Songs dieses einzigartigen Künstlers.

Olivia Dean Essentials

151668

by Apple Music Pop

Love has always been the ultimate muse for Olivia Dean. A “classic Olivia Dean song”, as the Londoner told Apple Music in 2023, is about how “I will fall in love with you, but not quite.” That sentiment propelled early-career songs such as Messy track “Danger” or 2021’s sublime “Slowly”, a heart-stopping exploration of just wanting to take it slow. Still, Dean also can’t resist going all in (“Dive”) or calling it off altogether; see “Be My Own Boyfriend”, which features her reliably sharp, conversational lyricism, or “Baby Steps” from 2025 album The Art of Loving. The singer-songwriter has always traded in warm, timeless soul- and jazz-inflected pop with lyrics that feel a bit like a conversation with old friend. And by 2025, everyone wanted in. “Come be the man I need,” Dean demanded on her endlessly replayable global smash “Man I Need”, with which she dominated much of 2025 and 2026 alongside “Nice to Each Other” and “Rein Me In” with Sam Fender. And as she moved from breakout name to pop superstar, Dean made it look exactly as her music has always sounded: effortless and full of love for what she does. Explore more sounds from a special, singular talent here.

Oasis Essentials

60808

by Apple Music Alternative

Some bands spend years chasing stardom, while others seem to will it into existence. That was certainly the case with Manchester’s Oasis, who named the first track on their debut album, Definitely Maybe, “Rock ’n’ Roll Star” as if stardom was preordained. Arriving at the peak of alt-rock, Oasis’ 1994 debut countered the introspective angst of grunge with a bird-flipping retort that combined the melodicism of The Beatles, the swagger of T. Rex, the sneer of the Sex Pistols and the danceable grooves of The Stone Roses. The result: sleazy anthems such as “Cigarettes & Alcohol” and “Supersonic” and celebratory tunes like “Live Forever”. The group’s sound—and the tension between songwriter Noel Gallagher and his brash vocalist brother, Liam—evoked the sibling drama of The Kinks. Definitely Maybe debuted at No. 1 on the UK charts, casting Oasis as the bad boys of Britpop, a role they embraced with their tabloid spats with Blur. But 1995’s follow-up, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, made them a global phenomenon thanks to karaoke-ready sing-alongs like “Wonderwall”, “Champagne Supernova” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger”. The Gallaghers’ ever-fraught relationship would sink Oasis in 2009, but in 2024, they announced a reunion tour for the following year, sharing on social media, “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned.”

Dolly Parton Essentials

55220

by Apple Music Country

Calling Dolly Parton the Queen of Country is both fitting and wholly insufficient for an artist whose career defined American music—and culture—over the course of nearly 70 years. Her life story—rising from Appalachian poverty (as immortalized in her 1971 song “Coat of Many Colors”) to something as close to sainthood as we will ever see—is the American dream, and her life’s work across 49 studio albums is its soundtrack. The best of that work, all in one place, is a collection of genre-defining and genre-flaunting hits spanning decades, yes, but together the songs tell a story in their own right. Her first charting single, 1966’s “Dumb Blonde,” introduced her as a fun-loving but independent woman confident enough to flout stereotypes and command her own destiny. In the late ’60s, Parton enjoyed huge success as a regular on Porter Wagoner’s weekly TV show and through a long string of collaborative hits like “The Last Thing On My Mind.” But she became even more popular as a solo artist, bolstering her reputation as a master storyteller with a pair of 1974 hits that became her signature songs. The aching “I Will Always Love You” was about needing to strike out on her own without Wagoner, while the timeless, minor-key “Jolene” assumed the vulnerable vantage point of a woman confronting a romantic rival. (She had long mused that she may have written them on the same day, before walking that back later in her life.) In 1981, Parton landed her first pop No. 1 hit, the Oscar-nominated blue-collar anthem “9 to 5,” and co-starred in the comedy film of the same name. She then had the biggest smash of her career in 1983 with “Islands in the Stream,” an easygoing romantic duet with Kenny Rogers. Further collaborations—like her albums with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris, plus cameos on songs by Beyoncé, Sabrina Carpenter, and Miley Cyrus (her goddaughter)—expanded Parton’s legacy through the end of the 20th century and well into the 21st. Parton passed away in August 2026 at age 80.

90er Hits Essentials

52378

by Apple Music 1990er-Jahre

In den Neunzigern war alles möglich: von fetten Technobeats über protzigen Gangsta-Rap, von Pop-Diven über Grunge-Helden bis zu bunt zusammengewürfelten Girl- und Boybands. Diese Playlist ist eine Reise in posterbehangene Kinderzimmer und sorglose Schaumpartyzeiten, als eine begeisternde Genrevielfalt die Charts bestimmte.

Taylor Swift Essentials

50398

by Apple Music Pop

Der 1989 in Pennsylvania geborene Jungstar Taylor Swift hat das typische Country-Gewand längst gegen eine kommerzielle Pophülle getauscht. Die Veröffentlichung ihres Debütalbums 2006 war nur der Startschuss einer radikal erfolgreichen Karriere, denn mit jedem Folgealbum kam die junge Taylor Swift dem Thron des Pop-Olymps immer ein Stück näher, bis sie auf diesem 2010 als bereits etablierte Künstlerin endlich Platz nahm. Seitdem avancierten Swifts Songs zur festen Nummer-Eins-Ingredienz der Charts. Ihre Songs mit ihren großen Songwriter-Qualitäten brennen sich mit dieser Playlist garantiert fest in dein Gedächtnis.

Luke Combs Essentials

41698

by Apple Music Country

While new artists usually get a cold reception from country radio, Luke Combs (born in 1990 and raised in North Carolina) barged right through any obstacles. His 2016 debut single, “Hurricane”, went to No. 1. The following year, his second single, “When It Rains It Pours”, went to No. 1. By 2019, Combs was the first country artist in history whose first seven singles went to No. 1—a streak he extended to a lucky 13—and he was soon headlining arenas. But Combs’ success didn’t happen overnight. He moulded his sound—a bold, yearning tenor, Southern rock guitars—and released three independent EPs before signing to a major. It doesn’t hurt that he has an everyman appeal; he’s said that he looks not like a star but like a typical country fan. He’s also a diverse songwriter who covers a lot of ground: rowdy and loose (“Cold as You”), sweet and devoted (“The Kind of Love We Make”), funny and sentimental (“Beer Never Broke My Heart”). Case in point is the faithful and impassioned 2023 rendition of Tracy Chapman’s classic 1988 track, “Fast Car”—Combs’ self-proclaimed favourite song—which he performed with Chapman at the 2024 Grammys.

Justin Bieber: essenciais

40783

by Apple Music: pop

Justin Bieber tomou a cena pop aos 15 anos, com seu primeiro EP, My World (2009). Ele chamou a atenção do produtor Scooter Brown com seus covers publicados na internet e, com sua voz e carisma, conquistou os corações de milhares de jovens mundo afora. Sob orientação de seu mentor musical, Usher, o cantor canadense mistura pop, R&B e hip-hop, com letras que falam sobre temas do cotidiano, como relacionamentos amorosos. Com uma enorme base de fãs e emplacando um hit atrás do outro, seu repertório e postura amadureceram, transformando o astro teen, gradativamente, em um sólido e renomado artista.

R&B Now

39028

by Apple Music R&B

Wo R&B heute steht und wohin das Genre sich entwickelt, hörst du hier. In der Zusammenarbeit „Fly U Out“ von Lucky Daye und Leon Thomas geht es um die Frustration einer Fernbeziehung. Wenn die Distanz zu groß wird und Anrufe nicht mehr ausreichen, gibt es nur eine Lösung: die Person einfliegen zu lassen. Über einem sanften Arrangement aus Gitarre und Klavier singen sie: „All Of These Texts Ain't Enough“ („All diese Nachrichten reichen nicht aus“). „R&B Now“ wird regelmäßig aktualisiert. Wenn dir also ein Song gefällt, füge ihn am besten sofort deiner Mediathek hinzu.

Sam Fender Essentials

36138

by Apple Music Alternative

Sam Fender wears his conscience like a shield, and his raw voice is a scream of fervent feeling that cuts across violently bruised indie-rock songs. First tipped for stardom by the BBC’s Sound of 2018 list, the North Shields singer has used his platform to release a series of intensely rowdy tunes bolstered by confrontational lyrics⁠—see the biting, tongue-in-cheek satire of “Millennial”. Fender has continued to explore his social conscience ever since, with his outspoken attitude most powerfully exemplified by the provocative despair of “White Privilege” or the boiling, seething passion of “Hypersonic Missiles”.

00er Hits Essentials

35358

by Apple Music 2000er-Jahre

In den Nullerjahren waren die Charts von einem coolen Crossover aus futuristischem R&B, innovativem Hip-Hop, lebenslustigem Pop und einer erneut aufblühenden Indie-Szene geprägt. Auf die Hits dieser Zeit kann sich daher eine ganze Generation einigen. Diese Playlist wird regelmäßig neu für dich zusammengestellt – speichere deine persönlichen Favoriten also am besten sofort.

Céline Dion Essentials

34798

by Apple Music Pop

Céline Dion's tremulous purr is one of the most instantly recognisable voices in popular music, taking her from teen francophone fame to global superstardom. Her songs are an exquisite fusion of the redemptive power of soul music (gospel in particular), the immaculate melodic beauty of Broadway showtunes and the keening melancholy of French chanson. But the thoroughbred perfection of that voice, at its most powerful and supple in the emotive power ballads—including the Titanic soundtrack's colossal “My Heart Will Go On”—is what made her a household name.

Zach Bryan Essentials

34648

by Apple Music Country

Unstinting honesty and stripped-down simplicity are at the core of Oklahoma troubadour Zach Bryan’s country-folk-inflected approach. When you cut your debut album (2019’s DeAnn) while on leave from the Navy, you don’t have time to muck around. He’s a storyteller with a poetic flair, and on unadorned acoustic tracks like “Oklahoma City” and the hushed, gentle “Rest, Rose”, you can see the local colour and feel Bryan’s plaintive voice vibrating the air. When he brings a few friends in on “Crooked Teeth”, the stomping-and-clapping vibe gives all the earthy intimacy of a campfire sing-along.

Drum 'n' Bass

34648

by Apple Music Dance

Bassmusik-Stile kommen und gehen, doch Drum 'n' Bass bleibt. Seit sich der Breakbeat-Sound mit den hohen BPM-Zahlen in den Neunzigern aus der UK-Hardcore- und Jungle-Szene entwickelte, hat vor allem Großbritannien eine aktive Szene, die aus Tradition in die Zukunft blickt. Diese Playlist wird regelmäßig neu für dich zusammengestellt – speichere deine persönlichen Favoriten also am besten sofort.

Fleetwood Mac Essentials

34648

by Apple Music Classic Rock

Tension can be a great motivator for a band, and no group has put that maxim to the test quite like Fleetwood Mac, a ’60s British blues-rock outfit that—through a series of lineup changes, stylistic shifts and rocky internal romances—became the paragons of ‘70s Californian pop. Since the band’s formation in London in 1967, drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie have served as both the rhythmic and spiritual anchors for a group that has hosted a revolving-door procession of outsized personalities, starting with Peter Green, the budding guitar god responsible for early hits like “Black Magic Woman” (famously covered by Santana) and the tranquil instrumental “Albatross” (which The Beatles admittedly aped on their Abbey Road track “Sun King”). After Green quit in 1970, the band cycled through different frontmen—Danny Kirwan and Bob Welch among them—while their keyboardist, McVie’s wife Christine, emerged as a female vocal foil. After a relocation to L.A., they welcomed singer/songwriter Lindsey Buckingham and his musical/romantic partner Stevie Nicks into the fold, heralding Fleetwood Mac’s transition into soft-rock hitmakers on their 1975 self-titled effort. But Nicks’ star turns on “Rhiannon” and “Landslide” revealed a darker mystique at the core of their easygoing sound and, as sudden success caused the long-term relationships within the band to disintegrate, their next release effectively invented a new genre: rock album as couples therapy. On 1977’s Rumours, Fleetwood Mac dressed up the bitterest break-up songs in the smoothest, sultriest arrangements to the tune of over 40 million copies sold; the album’s appeal is so universal that it’s been both cited by Courtney Love as an influence and used to soundtrack Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign. But the band were eager to play against pop-star type—1979’s double-album colossus Tusk betrayed Buckingham’s affinity for post-punk, and though it was deemed a commercial disappointment at the time, it has since been embraced as a cult classic by discerning indie rockers. And even as more streamlined ‘80s efforts like Mirage and Tango in the Night reasserted their pop panache, Fleetwood Mac have remained a cauldron of drama and intra-band acrimony, the principal members seemingly coming and going without warning. In the wake of Buckingham’s departure in 2018, the group enlisted Crowded House singer Neil Finn and Tom Petty sideman Mike Campbell. Christine McVie, who wrote some of the band’s biggest songs, including “Don’t Stop”, “You Make Lovin' Fun” and “Over My Head”, died in November 2022 at the age of 79.

Harry Styles Essentials

34598

by Apple Music Pop

Gravity has never held back Harry Styles, who achieved teen superstardom in One Direction and then transitioned remarkably well into solo fame just a year after the London boy band parted ways. His 2017 solo debut “Sign of the Times” was a tender piano ballad that hinted at much grander sonic ambitions, thanks in part to producer Jeff Bhasker. The same year’s self-titled album tousled his squeaky-clean image nicely with the squalling, leather-jacketed blues of “Kiwi” and Beatles-esque psych-pop of “Carolina”. His second album, 2019’s Fine Line, took his razor-sharp songwriting and casual vocal conviction to imaginative new heights, yielding the dizzying romance of “Adore You” and sensory delights of “Watermelon Sugar”. Styles felt even more comfortably himself on 2022’s quaintly titled Harry’s House, adding some wryly meta third-person lyrics about himself amid the synth-pop effervescence of “As It Was” before nailing ticklish R&B on “Late Night Talking” and channelling Prince (not for the first time) on “Music for a Sushi Restaurant”. Through it all, he cherry-picks freely from the past while still feeling refreshingly modern in his production and aesthetic choices. Yet he’s never without sincere emotion: Styles may be a reborn sonic adventurer, but he still has a pop star’s beating heart.

Teddy Swims Essentials

34548

by Apple Music Pop

With a voice that can soothe and soar at once, Georgia native Teddy Swims (born Jaten Dimsdale) began building up a massive following in 2019 and 2020, laying down an impressive range of covers, including a soulful rendering of Shania Twain’s “You’re Still the One” and a country-tinged twist on The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights”. But once he began to show off his songwriting prowess, too, there was no stopping him. Swims lights up anything he touches, whether it’s an electro-powered anthem (“All That Really Matters” with ILLENIUM), rip-roaring clap-along (“Broke” feat. Thomas Rhett), or warm slice of vintage soul (“2 Moods”).

Afrobeats Hits

by Apple Music Alternative

Kaum eine andere Band lässt sich so sehr mit dem neuen Millennium verbinden wie Coldplay. 2000 traten die Briten um Sänger Chris Martin mit ihrem Debütalbum „Parachutes“ und dessen Singles eine Welle los, die das Quartett rasch zu einem der erfolgreichsten Acts der vergangenen Jahre machte und es in die Sphären von Vorbildern wie Radiohead und U2 hob. In der folgenden Zeit eilte die Band von Erfolg zu Erfolg, erweiterte ihren ruhigen Sound um kleine Electronic-Komponenten, wurde zur erfolgreichsten Stadionband des frühen 21. Jahrhunderts und beeinflusst damit zahlreiche andere Musiker.

2010s Hits Essentials

34288

by Apple Music 2010s

The only rule for pop in the ‘10s? Trusting your instincts can do wonders for your star power. Take Lady Gaga, who shape-shifted from hard-edged diva to big-voiced balladeer multiple times during the decade, or Ariana Grande, who kept fans guessing with surprise drops and coded lyrics. The 2010s were a wild time on the charts, with pop divas, hip-hop stars and guitar-strumming crooners all making their own way to the top. Adele belted her way through heartbreak and triumph; Drake got in his feelings over street-sourced beats; Taylor Swift shared her innermost thoughts with millions; and Shawn Mendes made the leap from viral-video star to world-conquering pop icon. Groups hit it big, too, whether they were singing in sweet harmony like the boy banders of One Direction or revamping themselves alongside the times like the soul-poppers in Maroon 5.

Dua Lipa Essentials

34248

by Apple Music Pop

Even when the mood dips, you can expect Dua Lipa’s euphoric pop to land back on the bright side eventually. After her 2017 self-titled debut established her as an outspoken, effortlessly cool face of pop’s future on airy tracks like “New Rules”, 2020’s Future Nostalgia and its funky calling card “Don’t Start Now” provided a uniting force of positivity at the dawn of global lockdowns. Her nonchalant confidence has made her a versatile collaborator with everyone from DJ superstar Calvin Harris (2018’s “One Kiss”) to reggaetón royalty J Balvin (2021’s “UN DIA [ONE DAY]”), and 2023’s Barbie-inspired hit “Dance the Night” built naturally upon her savvy disco revisionism. By the time of 2024’s Radical Optimism, Lipa had her absolute pick of creative partners—and she chose Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker. While their team-up retains the glide and snap of classic dance pop on “Houdini” and “Illusion”, the lyrics probe deeper into her personal experience, bringing an unmistakable glint of honesty to diva-level pop radiance.

Elvis Presley Essentials

34048

by Apple Music Oldies

There’s a good reason why the King of Rock ’n’ Roll couldn't stop swivelling his hips: his music swings with soul. His ‘50s hits “That’s All Right” and the haunted “Mystery Train” are grooving rockabilly showcasing his brash musicianship. In the ‘60s, this stylistic chameleon adopted a big, absurdly romantic baritone and excelled at lush, dramatic ballads like “It’s Now or Never”. Toward the decade’s end, Presley re-embraced pure rock with “Suspicious Minds”—a galloping, desperation-stained masterpiece reflective of his late-career love for Southern soul.

LINKIN PARK Essentials

33938

by Apple Music Hard Rock

Es sind die Gegensätze, die LINKIN PARK ausmachen. Da treffen messerscharfe Gitarrenriffs auf groß angelegte Refrains und Electronica-Einflüsse. Da stehen die Raps von Mike Shinoda neben dem hochemotionalen Gesang von Chester Bennington. Die Kalifornier wendeten diese Erfolgsformel erstmals auf ihrem 2000 erschienenen Debüt „Hybrid Theory“ an – bis zu Chester Benningtons Tod 2017 perfektionierten sie sie auf sechs weiteren Alben. Diese Playlist ist Spiegelbild des immensen musikalischen Einflusses einer der größten Bands überhaupt, insbesondere auf Nu Metal und Alternative Rock.

Adele Essentials

33738

by Apple Music Pop

The singer born Adele Adkins honed her now legendary voice as a kid in her South London bedroom, listening to Etta James every night for an hour. But as soon as she made her television debut at age 19 in 2007, all potential comparisons evaporated: This girl with whopping hoop earrings and a pub landlady’s brashness had something unique. Heartbreak, indignation and regret all found a natural home in her regal mezzo-soprano, the instrument that powered her 2008 debut album, 19 (which featured the brassy “Chasing Pavements”), and 2011’s 21 (the fiery “Rolling in the Deep”, the heart-wrenching "Someone Like You"). It took just one word to reintroduce her in 2015: “Hello,” she sang during an X Factor ad break, unveiling her third album, 25, in the process. Songs like the swirling “Send My Love (To Your New Lover)” and the pensive “Water Under the Bridge” helped it become yet another global chart-topper. In 2021, Adele released 30, which grappled with motherhood, the aftermath of her divorce and—perhaps most surprisingly—happiness amid life’s upheavals.

’60s Hits Essentials

33258

by Apple Music Oldies

A musical revolution happened during the ‘60s. Distinctions between musical styles stopped mattering as fans began to get behind any song they liked, regardless of genre. The radio could have played an R&B song right after a surfer tune, as long as they were both popular. This was the birth of pop as we know it, and it saw the rise of acts like The Monkees, Dusty Springfield and Neil Diamond.

Eminem Essentials

33128

by Apple Music Hip-Hop/Rap International

Nach seinen Anfängen in der Crew D12 produzierte Eminem unter dem Alter Ego Slim Shady seine erste gleichnamige EP. Wie es das Schicksal so wollte, bekam Dr. Dre das Tape in die Hände und nahm den Rapper aus Detroit sofort unter Vertrag. 1999 gelang Eminem mit einem raffinierten, völlig neuen Rap-Stil und Tabuthemen als Lyrics der Durchbruch. Nach musikalischer Pause meldete sich Slim Shady 2018 unangekündigt mit dem Album „Kamikaze“ zurück, gefolgt von „Music To Be Murdered By“ zwei Jahre später. Damit trat er dem exklusiven Club von Künstlern wie den Beatles und Elvis Presley bei, die mindestens zehn Nummer-eins-Alben vorweisen können – auf kontroverse Lyrics verzichtete der Rapper dabei auch dieses Mal nicht.

by Apple Music Hits

From uplifting anthems to heart-rending ballads, here’s a playlist capturing the best of contemporary pop: bright, clean, fun and familiar. Because it just feels good. We regularly update these tunes, so if you like something you hear, add it to your library.

Ed Sheeran Essentials

32448

by Apple Music Pop

Born in 1991 in Halifax, England, Ed Sheeran started out gigging on the UK pub circuit before releasing his first studio album, +, in 2011. Sheeran kept up the mathematical theme on subsequent album titles as he became one of the most unstoppable singer-songwriters in music, forging a light, polished blend of folk, pop and hip-hop that feels bittersweet and redemptive, intimate yet universal. Whether on his own songs (“Sing”, “The A Team”, “Shape of You”, “Perfect”) or in collaboration with artists such as Taylor Swift, Chance the Rapper and Beyoncé, Sheeran strikes a chord that feels good-natured and genuine: He’s the hopeless romantic who isn’t afraid to be vulnerable and show you his heart. Perhaps even more important, Sheeran isn’t afraid to take chances. His 2021 smash “Bad Habits” dabbled in modern dance-pop, while in 2023, he released two albums: −, a vulnerable album about grief and depression, and Autumn Variations, featuring collaborations with Aaron Dessner of The National.

Phil Collins Essentials

31498

by Apple Music Pop

Phil Collins may have begun his career as a prog rocker, but his solo work is marked by a passion for pure pop. The Genesis drummer/vocalist played a key role in defining '80s music, thanks to his novel fusion of vintage soul, New Wave synth work, and dance-pop drum machine beats. The sublimely vaporous “In the Air Tonight” captures his vision at its darkest, whilst "Sussudio” is a relentlessly punchy expression of high-octane R&B. In the '90s and beyond, Collins expanded his style to include guitar-driven pop-rockers and the occasional lush, Broadway ballad.

Bruno Mars: essenciais

30001

by Apple Music: pop

Bruno Mars começou na música aos 2 anos de idade, imitando Elvis Presley. Em sua época de estudante, ele cantava com a banda Love Notes, formada por sua família. Depois da formatura do ensino médio, assinou com a icônica gravadora americana Motown e iniciou sua jornada como compositor. Em 2010, lançou o primeiro álbum, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, que chamou a atenção da crítica - influenciado por Elvis, mas também por Michael Jackson e Prince, o músico chegou a ser descrito pelo jornal The New York Times como um dos artistas mais versáteis e completos do pop contemporâneo. Com diversos prêmios GRAMMY na bagagem, o cantor mostra nesta playlist sua posição de destaque na história do pop mundial.

Ella Langley Essentials

29798

by Apple Music Country

Alabama native Ella Langley has proven to be one of contemporary country’s sharpest voices, melding a more traditional sound with radio-ready pop flair and a distinctive twang. Her first major hit was a duet with Riley Green, the sassy, conversational “you look like you love me”, which succeeded by resisting Music City trends in favour of the timeless: abundant pedal steel, fingerpicked guitar and jangling saloon-style piano. Langley had already been building buzz with the catchy “Country Boy’s Dream Girl” and the rocking Koe Wetzel duet “That’s Why We Fight” when she released her debut album hungover (whose deluxe edition included the propulsive “weren’t for the wind”), situating herself as the latest heir to the legacy of women country artists from Loretta Lynn to Miranda Lambert who make taking no guff central to their music and persona. And then the Lone Star State came a-calling. “Choosin’ Texas”—the first single off her sophomore full-length Dandelion—slow-burned to the top of the charts, earning Langley smash crossover success with its angsty, drawling tale of love-triangle woe. “Be Her” from the same album followed in its path—another jealousy-fuelled ballad that thrived among audiences. “I’m in the back half of my twenties and still figuring it out, but I feel like I do it with a little more confidence,” Langley told Apple Music. “That’s why a lot of these songs represent that. They represent that feeling of, like, you know, you’re still figuring it out, but you’re trying to do it a little bit better each time.”

Lewis Capaldi Essentials

29683

by Apple Music Acoustic

Amidst the hyper-paced world of late-2010s pop, an unassuming Scottish singer-songwriter introduced a voice imbued with soulful grit and heartache on his 2017 breakup ballad “Bruises” and 2018’s equally tear-jerking “Someone You Loved”. Confirming that those singles were no fluke, Lewis Capaldi’s 2019 debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, fleshed out his sound with lush orchestration and gospel gravitas but retained his fearless flair for emotional dredging. Capaldi proved no less forthcoming on 2023’s Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent, counterbalancing all his success with self-deprecating turns like “The Ancient Art of Always F*****g Up”. Though he declined to tour behind the album in order to improve his mental and physical health, that decisive step felt just as authentic as the doubt and passion he airs in his songs. On striking tracks such as “Love the Hell Out of You”, Capaldi provides a pure, unvarnished representation of pain and longing.

Noah Kahan Essentials

28788

by Apple Music Alternative

Noah Kahan, born in 1997, captured the imagination of rural and urban folksters alike with his unique brand of acoustic-driven pop ballads. The Strafford, Vermont-born singer-songwriter first emerged in 2017 with a number of strong tracks, showcasing an undeniable talent. His voice, confident yet vulnerable, leads the way while his aggressively strummed guitar parts infuse his work with an almost percussive gallop. More recent singles like 2022’s “Stick Season” and the Post Malone-featuring “Dial Drunk” have introduced Kahan to a wider audience, allowing him to transcend his folk roots while remaining loyal to the acoustic sounds he first broke out with.

Bad Bunny Essentials

27804

by Apple Music Urbano latino

Bad Bunny se ha convertido en un ícono en la migración de la cultura latina a la corriente global, remodelando el aspecto, el sonido y la sensación del pop moderno con solo seguir su propia musa idiosincrásica. Es como dice en el título de su álbum de 2020 YHLQMDLG: "Yo hago lo que me da la gana". Cuando era niño y crecía en Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, a mediados de los 90, Bad Bunny (nacido Benito Martínez Ocasio en 1994) se enamoró de un amplio espectro musical latinoamericano (reggaetón, merengue, salsa) antes de descubrir el hip-hop. Sus mejores canciones no solo mezclan tradición y futurismo, lo latinoamericano y lo global, sino que también establecen un nuevo territorio temático para los artistas latinos masculinos, incluida la vulnerabilidad personal ("Vete") y el empoderamiento de las mujeres ("Yo Perreo Sola"). Sus colaboraciones (la abatida "LA NOCHE DE ANOCHE" con ROSALÍA, el mejor emparejamiento de poder "MÍA" con Drake, la aireada y relajada "Lo Siento BB:/" con Julieta Venegas) no hacen más que resaltar aún más su rango. Después de lanzar el enorme Un Verano Sin Ti de 2022 (nombrado uno de LOS 100 MEJORES ÁLBUMES de Apple Music), regresó al año siguiente con nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana, un Álbum que agregó fragmentos de Jersey club a su arsenal ("WHERE SHE GOES") y reforzó su categoría como el posible creador de éxitos más dinámico del mundo. Cuando la NFL lo anunció como el artista principal del Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show, lo hicieron con un breve clip de él sentado en silencio entre los postes de la portería en la playa de su infancia, Playa Puerto Nuevo. "Eso es lo que me gusta de mí, de mi carrera, de mi éxito", le dijo a Zane Lowe de Apple Music en 2025. "Siempre he sido yo".

Drake Essentials

25198

by Apple Music Hip-Hop

Drake officially became the voice of a generation with 2011’s sumptuous Take Care, a career-defining magnum opus that earned a prized slot in Apple Music’s 100 Best Albums list. Was he an R&B singer who rapped or a rapper who sang? Was he really that sad, or just exploiting a cultural preference for male vulnerability? Adding to the slipperiness of it all, any given Drake project might incorporate dreamy house and club music into his comfort zone of rap, pop and R&B with equal conviction. Even after cementing his prowess as an MC many times over, Drake still retains the capacity to surprise. His 2015 earworm “Hotline Bling” radiated universal cool without breaking a sweat, while 2024’s “Push Ups” arrived during his fleeting beef with Kendrick Lamar yet applies lasting heat to its minimalistic prowl. Drake is now such a part of the firmament that his slightest move can trigger aftershocks far beyond his immediate reach.

AC/DC Essentials

22858

by Apple Music Hard Rock

Storming out of Australia’s gritty pub scene in the mid ’70s, AC/DC are the undisputed champions of high-decibel boogie minimalism. Their mechanised swing, first anchored by the Young brothers’ razor-sharp riff dialogues, is so elemental that it essentially serves as the root DNA of the unholy trinity: heavy metal, hard rock and punk. Even when the quartet lost lewd and crude screamer Bon Scott in 1980, they didn’t miss a beat. Bringing in the raspy-throated Brian Johnson, they unleashed Back in Black, a slab of brutal crunch and hip-shaking smut that turned them into permanent arena titans.

Whitney Houston Essentials

21198

by Apple Music Pop

The Voice was Whitney Houston's nickname, a faculty recast as a superlative because the pop-R&B powerhouse was in possession of her generation's most quintessential one. With a three-octave span inherited from her gospel-performer mother, she had a voice that rang with a bell's clarity and a pearl's elegance. But it was also forceful. Houston didn't wield it so much as pilot it—on “Saving All My Love For You” like a hot-air balloon; on “I Will Always Love You” like a 747.

Arctic Monkeys Essentials

21078

by Apple Music Alternative

Only 16 when he founded Sheffield, England’s Arctic Monkeys, Alex Turner swiftly established himself as a songwriter of uncommon wisdom and wit. That one-two punch helped make 2006’s Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not the fastest-selling debut album in UK history, armed with a scuffed earworm single in “I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor”. On 2009’s Humbug they sought riff-thickening advice from Queens of the Stone Age leader Josh Homme—see the brooding menace of “Crying Lightning"—while 2013’s AM cracked the US Top 10 (and later Apple Music’s 100 Best Albums list) with sing-along stompers naturally suited to festivals. Once they became one of the world’s biggest rock bands, the Monkeys proved they could also be among its most adventurous, with Turner crooning over darkly funky licks and intentionally drowsy arrangements on tracks like 2018’s “Four Out of Five” and 2022’s “There’d Better Be a Mirrorball”. Whatever the backdrop, Turner’s pen proves no less pointed as he settles confidently into middle age.

Lo-Fi Chill

20918

by Apple Music Chillen

Ein Klavier, behutsam angeschlagen. Einige Gitarrenakkorde. Manchmal auch ein paar sanfte Bläser. Dazu ein dezenter Beat irgendwo zwischen Chillout-Sounds, Hip-Hop und Jazz. Elemente wie diese werden in Lo-Fi-Tracks so kombiniert, als käme die Musik aus einer anderen Welt. So entsteht ein musikalischer Hintergrund, der beides kann: Er hilft dabei, sich zu konzentrieren, etwa bei der Arbeit oder beim Lernen. Aber auch, wer nach einem harten Tag Entspannung sucht, liegt bei den Tracks dieser Playlist genau richtig.

Ibiza Essentials

20221

by Apple Music Dance

The Spanish island of Ibiza has long been a haven for seekers of all sorts. As far back as the ’30s, Spaniards threatened by Francisco Franco's regime had been going there in search of political and sexual freedom. In the ’60s, hippies flocked to the White Isle to tap its supposed mystical powers (the island's sunsets are truly epic and elicit both tears and cheers at any outdoor gathering). And in the late ’80s, when British DJs such as Danny Rampling and Paul Oakenfold brought acid house back from clubs like Amnesia and Pacha, they kicked off a long-standing tradition of European partiers heading to the Med for a hedonistic holiday. While the Balearic sound—more a vibe than an actual genre, loosely threading together folk, New Age, soul, disco, psychedelia and dance music of all types—has become the island’s unofficial soundtrack, today, Ibiza's dance floors tend to favour the steady thump of deep house and melodic techno. But if you stay up late enough, you’ll still catch vestiges of that anything-goes Second Summer of Love—when 808 State mixed into Sade and Enya and no one batted an eye.

Sabrina Carpenter Essentials

18835

by Apple Music Pop

Whip-smart lyricism, endlessly catchy hooks, endorsements from some of pop’s biggest names and a support slot for Taylor Swift on the biggest tour in history: Sabrina Carpenter had it all when she unleashed “Espresso”, the moreish hit that would dominate summer 2024 and propel her to pop’s top table. Then came the just as witty, Jack Antonoff-produced “Please, Please, Please”, which turned out to be that summer’s second biggest hit. It was Carpenter’s breakout moment, but it hardly came out of nowhere. Balancing her on-screen career as a Disney star with her slow-burn journey to pop stardom, the Pennsylvania singer-songwriter and actor explored dance-pop styles on 2015’s Eyes Wide Open and 2016’s EVOLution, trap and house on 2018 singles “Almost Love” the cheeky kiss off “Sue Me”, and a more reflective style on 2022 album emails I can’t send. It housed tracks including “Nonsense”, “Feather” and the headline-grabbing “because I liked a boy”. The record also featured a prophetic claim: “Woke up this morning, thought I’d write a pop hit.” Needless to say she did, with hits including “Taste” and “Bad Chem” following “Espresso”’s moment in the sun. Listen to all the songs—and every line of witty lyricism—that have made Carpenter a superstar here.

Ludovico Einaudi Essentials

18578

by Apple Music Classical

Einaudi stammt aus einer einflussreichen Familie und genoss bereits von Kindesbeinen an eine umfangreiche musikalische Ausbildung. Sein musisches Talent und Können konnte er so sorgfältig kultivieren und feierte seine ersten Erfolge mit Filmkompositionen, bevor er sich in den 1990ern dem Solo-Klavier widmete und die Möglichkeiten des modernen Pianos zwischen Minimalismus und Neuer Musik erkundete. Auch Einflüsse aus der Popmusik hört man in seinen subtil-epischen Klavierstücken, die Ludovico Einaudi mit einem romantischen Gestus im Stil von Philip Glass zu wundervoll magischen Stücken verschmilzt.

Fred again.. Essentials

17829

by Apple Music Electronic

Fred Gibson, aka Fred again.., is one of the best-connected house DJs in the game. Ambient royalty Brian Eno took him under his wing as a teenager, and the London producer has since worked with some of the biggest names around. Gibson’s songs consistently offer diary-like snapshots of a specific time and place, with his Actual Life album series even listing the exact date ranges of creation in their titles. On 2021’s pulsing 2-step track “Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing)”, The Blessed Madonna mourns for the fun halted by COVID-19, while 2022’s “Delilah (pull me out of this)” samples Delilah Montagu for similarly poignant results. “I’ve become really obsessed with…taking very fleeting moments and exposing as much beauty as is in them,” he told Apple Music’s Zane Lowe in 2022. He has very much continued to do that ever since, whether spotlighting Nigerian singer Obongjayar on 2023’s delicate valentine “adore u” or swinging in the opposite direction with the in-your-face swagger of 2025’s “Victory Lap”, a track that has earned multiple joyful permutations. Both a chameleonic creator and a consummate collaborator, Gibson zeroes in on little epiphanies that underscore the community-building inherent to dance music.

About All-Time Rankings

All-time rankings are calculated based on a playlist's chart performance history, including days in the top 100, top 10, top 3, and at #1. The score also considers peak rank achieved, streak bonuses for consecutive days charting, and recency.
