Olivia Dean Essentials

74880

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.

Justin Bieber Essentials

25910

by Apple Music Pop

Justin Bieber gehört zu den kontroversen Stars der jüngeren Popgeschichte. Vor allem Teenager können sich mit seiner Musik und seinem Image identifizieren. Der kanadische Pop- und R&B-Sänger hatte zunächst Cover auf Youtube gestellt, bevor er 2009 im Alter von 15 Jahren mit „One Time“ und dem darauffolgenden Album „My World 2.0“ seinen internationalen Durchbruch feierte. In den eingängigen Songs geht es vor allem um jugendliche Liebe und Erotik. Sein 2012 erschienenes Album „Believe“ etablierte ihn als erwachsenen Künstler, der das Teenie-Star-Image abgelegt hat.

Taylor Swift Essentials

23320

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.

Bad Bunny Essentials

21485

by Apple Music Urbano Latino

Bad Bunny ist zu einem Symbol für den Einfluss lateinamerikanischer Kultur im globalen Mainstream geworden. Mit seinem unverwechselbaren Stil hat er den Look, den Sound und das Gefühl des modernen Pop neu geprägt – immer angetrieben von seiner eigenen Muse. Wie der Titel seines Albums „YHLQMDLG“ von 2020 schon sagt: „Yo hago lo que me da la gana“. Er macht also, was er will. 1994 als Benito Martínez Ocasio geboren, wuchs Bad Bunny im puerto-ricanischen Vega Baja auf und begeisterte sich schnell für die Klänge von Reggaeton, Merengue und Salsa. Dann entdeckte er Hip‑Hop für sich. Heute verbinden seine Tracks nicht nur Tradition und Futurismus sowie lateinamerikanische und globale Einflüsse, sondern eröffnen auch neues thematisches Terrain für lateinamerikanische Künstler:innen: Verletzlichkeit („Vete“) und selbstbestimmte Weiblichkeit („Yo Perreo Sola“). Auch seine Team‑ups machen diese Spannweite deutlich – vom melancholischen „LA NOCHE DE ANOCHE“ mit ROSALÍA über das dynamische „MÍA“ mit Drake bis hin zum lässigen „Lo Siento BB:/“ mit Julieta Venegas. Ein Jahr nach der Veröffentlichung des Albums „Un Verano Sin Ti“ (2022), das zu den Apple Music 100 Best Albums zählt, kehrte Bad Bunny mit „nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana“ zurück. Dieses Album erweiterte sein Repertoire um Jersey-Club-Elemente („WHERE SHE GOES“) und festigte seinen Status als einer der dynamischsten Hitmacher:innen der Welt. Schließlich kündigte die NFL den Superstar als Headliner der Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show an – mit einem kurzen Clip, in dem Bad Bunny an seinem Heimatstrand Playa Puerto Nuevo zwischen Football-Torpfosten sitzt. „Das ist das, was ich an mir, an meiner Karriere und an meinem Erfolg mag“, sagte er 2025 gegenüber Zane Lowe von Apple Music. „Ich bin immer ich selbst geblieben.“

Michael Jackson Essentials

15150

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.

R&B Now

15070

by Apple Music R&B

Spätestens zu Beginn der Neunziger trat der moderne R&B seinen Siegeszug als verbindendes Element zwischen Mainstream und Underground an: Klassische R&B-Rhythmen prägten einen schillernden Style mit Anleihen aus Rap, Electronica, Neo-Soul und Pop. Im stets spannenden und visionären Miteinander treffen hier die Gigant:innen des Genres auf innovative Künstler:innen aus Gegenwart und Zukunft.

90er Hits Essentials

14870

by Apple Music 1990er-Jahre

Fleetwood Mac Essentials

12860

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

12860

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.

Drum 'n' Bass

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.

2000s Hits Essentials

12800

by Apple Music 2000s

As the calendar flipped to Y2K, teen pop ruled music’s roost, with megastars like Britney Spears and *NSYNC dominating the charts. But over the course of the 2000s, a varied pop landscape would emerge, with streetwise hip-hop, emotionally fraught rock, swooning R&B, hook-studded emo and big-tent pop all getting their moments in the sun—and even coming together in DJ-crafted mash-ups and high-profile collaborations. Pop in the 21st century’s first decade reflected the emergent digital-music era, with the “on shuffle” ideal resulting in radio playlists where Kanye rubbed elbows with The Killers and Kelly Clarkson, or where a hard-hitting Eminem track was bracketed by offerings from Beyoncé and Mariah Carey. That mix of genres and outsize personalities made for an exciting decade that put the party back in pop.

Lullaby Essentials

12760

by Apple Music Kids

As anyone who's tried to soothe a restless soul to sleep knows, finding the perfect lullaby can be an elusive quest. A balance is needed between hypnotic repetition and dreamy inspiration, between murmured lyrics and reassuring melodies, offset by a beautifully soft instrumental backdrop. The tracks here range from cinematic orchestrations to hushed nursery rhymes, classical reveries to classic folk ditties, pop singers' delicate originals to acoustic versions of familiar ballads. What they have in common is an essential sweetness and the magical ability to be played over and over without getting old.

Céline Dion Essentials

12680

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.

RAYE Essentials

12670

by Apple Music R&B/Soul

Independent, chart-topping, award-winning: RAYE is all these things and more. Following her high-profile departure from her record label in 2021, her already well-established career has exploded with success (she won six BRIT Awards in 2024 alone), and the London-born singer-songwriter shows no signs of stopping. Having penned hits for acts such as Beyoncé, Little Mix and Anitta, RAYE’s versatility should come as no surprise. Highlights in her catalogue include the confessional breakout single, “Escapism.”—a trip-hop-influenced, starmaking collaboration with 070 Shake—and her rap-leaning turn on “Prada”, cassö’s bass-heavy dance flip of D-Block Europe’s “Ferrari Horses”. There’s also been a string of floor-fillers, from the snappy, Jax Jones-produced “You Don’t Know Me” to the flirtatious Joel Corry and David Guetta feature, “BED”, as well as “Genesis.”—a three-act trip through spoken word, hip-hop and jazz.

Sam Fender Essentials

12660

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”.

Bruno Mars Essentials

12660

by Apple Music Pop

Gliding between styles with a grin, Bruno Mars is a true triple threat. He's a singer with the sweetness and swagger of his '60s and '70 idols. The one-that-got-away intensity of a soulful ballad like “When I Was Your Man” will leave you in tears, and then this smooth operator will seduce you with the sly boasts of a dance floor-destroying anthem like “Uptown Funk”. As a songwriter, Mars is a human jukebox loaded with decades of hooks, racking up retro hits like the pulse-pounding New Wave rocker “Locked Out of Heaven” and adding bumping hip-hop breaks to the intensely sweet love song “Just the Way You Are”. But while Mars may have learned his behind-the-boards chops by studying the past—whether that means the time-tested Motown playbook or the electro-shocked pulse of post-disco R&B—even his delectable throwback jams like “24K Magic” have a luscious sheen that's pure 21st century pop.

Luke Combs Essentials

12640

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.

Oasis Essentials

12560

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.”

Phil Collins Essentials

12550

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.

Coldplay Essentials

12540

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.

Fred again.. Essentials

12520

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.

Teddy Swims Essentials

12500

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”).

Zach Bryan Essentials

12380

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.

2010s Hits Essentials

12380

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.

’60s Hits Essentials

12320

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.

Hear it on The Agenda now, alongside everything else making noise across the Black music diaspora, and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.

Elvis Presley Essentials

12280

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.

Ed Sheeran Essentials

12260

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.

Eminem Essentials

12260

by Apple Music Hip-Hop

On 1999’s “My Name Is”, Eminem entered the public imagination with a mandate: “God sent me to piss the world off.” And true to his word, he held a mirror to the American psyche—and his own—with uncommon incisiveness. Raised in working-class Detroit, the artist born Marshall Mathers got his start as a battle rapper, reaching the ears of future mentor Dr. Dre before they teamed up on career-making smashes like “My Name Is”, 2000’s “The Real Slim Shady” and the Dido-featuring “Stan”. Dark, funny and frequently violent, those breakthroughs established him as pop culture’s premier bogeyman, a bleached-blonde devil traumatised by circumstance. Yet as he has matured—fame, stability, sobriety, an Oscar for 2002’s “Lose Yourself”—he’s retained his edge, taking shots at politics and society with a frustration that’s bordered on relentless. After delving into his own journey through addiction on 2009’s Relapse and 2010’s Recovery, he took square aim at his original alter ego on 2024’s The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce). As always, Em reserves his harshest words for himself, refracting his insecurities into verses that only make him seem more human.

Adele Essentials

12240

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.

Sabrina Carpenter Essentials

12130

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.

LINKIN PARK Essentials

12060

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.

Dua Lipa Essentials

11800

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.

Lewis Capaldi Essentials

11158

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

10590

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.

Arctic Monkeys Essentials

9320

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.

Alex Warren Essentials

9110

by Apple Music Acoustic

Shifting from internet prankster to sensitive singer isn’t the first thing on most people’s transformation bingo card, but when Alex Warren left the Hype House behind and turned to music, success followed. The California-born balladeer draws heavily on his own experiences in these tracks which touch on the pain of losing his parents and the joy of falling in love with his wife, Kouvr Annon. But he hasn’t left the online world behind completely: “Burning Down” went viral on TikTok before the wider world discovered and fell in love with it. Blockbuster hits “Ordinary” and “Carry You Home” were written for his wife and have resonated with romantics all over the world. “Yard Sale” sees him reminiscing after a breakup, while “Heaven Without You” is the ultimate pledge of eternal love. Shapeshifting from comedy content to heartfelt pop has proved a hit for Warren.

This playlist is updated regularly—if you like a song, add it to your library.

Ludovico Einaudi Essentials

8661

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.

Solid Gold Hits

8604

by Apple Music Pop

Ella Langley Essentials

8500

by Apple Music Country

The Alabama native has already proven to be one of contemporary country’s sharpest voices, melding a more traditional sound than many of her peers with radio-ready pop flair and a distinctive twang. Her first major hit was a duet with fellow burgeoning talent 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 rocking Koe Wetzel duet “That’s Why We Fight”, but with the release of her debut album hungover, the singer-songwriter situated 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. Her first solo radio hit, the propulsive “weren’t for the wind”, is all about seeking one’s own path without settling down—something that, early in her career, she’s already known for.

Fitness-Sounds im Remix

Bester Beweis dafür ist diese Playlist aus frisch veredelten Pop-, Hip-Hop-, Dance- und Rock-Tracks. Wenn du also etwas hörst, das dir gefällt, füge es deiner Mediathek hinzu.

Whitney Houston Essentials

7929

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.

Mumford & Sons Essentials

7880

by Apple Music Alternative

Ever since they burst out of London's nu-folk scene in the late-‘00s there has perhaps been something anachronistic about Mumford & Sons rootsy sound emerging as the defining form of modern arena rock. From the pastoral drama of debut record Sigh No More onwards, this four-piece have deployed galloping bass drums, frenetic banjo and Marcus Mumford's plaintive, barrel-aged croon to carve out a sonic lane that sounds simultaneously timeless and progressive. And they have evolved too, questing beyond the waistcoated Americana of their early work to a sound that embraces bustling electronica, thundering new wave and even spine-tingling worldbeat.

Bedtime Beats

by Apple Music Sleep

The moon’s up, the hour’s late, the world’s asleep. Look, it’s been a long day—no need to belabor the point. Here’s a mix of low-key instrumental hip-hop for unwinding and falling asleep. Our editors update selections regularly, so if you find something you like—in other words, if there’s something you only kinda sorta remember as you drift off—add it to your library. But do yourself a favor: Wait until morning.

50 Cent Essentials

7261

by Apple Music Hip-Hop

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson III hit mainstream music like a meteorite in 2003, beginning with the utter ubiquity of his Dre-helmed smash “In da Club”. The Queens rapper’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’ became the fastest-selling debut in America at the time, riding high on the fact that Fif had survived being shot nine times in 2000. Besides cementing his legend as a hard-partying survivor, the album fleshed him out further as a concerned romantic partner (“21 Questions”) and shrewd businessman (“P.I.M.P.”). The latter image was quickly bolstered by his mentoring of breakout talent like Lloyd Banks and The Game via his G-Unit crew, as well as his overnight (and long-lasting) acting career. Fif’s talent for laying down grounded, street-smart flow over poppy, minimalistic backdrops continued throughout the decade, whether he was playing it sultry (2005’s “Candy Shop”), flipping Biz Markie (2006’s “Best Friend”), teaming up with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland (2007’s “Ayo Technology”) or slipping easily into R&B (2009’s “Baby by Me”, with Ne-Yo). By 2014, he had expanded his empire by co-creating the hit TV series Power—even providing the theme song with “Big Rich Town”—and penned the first of several books about getting ahead in the world. Fif’s enduring success across so many spheres of influence hasn’t been so much a self-fulfilling prophecy as it has been an unwavering feat of self-belief from the start.

Lo-Fi Chill

6871

by Apple Music Chill

In the late 1910s, the French composer Erik Satie came up with a concept he called “furniture music”—sounds designed more for passive listening than active engagement. It’s a useful idea in thinking about the history of ambient music in general, but it feels especially applicable to the wave of lo-fi/chill-hop that has washed over the digital world 100 years later: soundtracks for studying, reading, resting, cooking or whatever; more a sonic companion than a point of focus. With that, here’s a playlist of low-key, hip-hop-influenced beats to keep you company, whatever the errand—the furniture music for the 2020s. Our editors update picks here regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.

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.
