Following a memorable March, April is stacked with major new albums. The fourth month of the year will bring a wave of releases, including projects from Zayn, Kehlani, and Snoop Dogg. As the curtain rises on April 2026, here are the ten most anticipated albums of the month.
Porcelain – Peach PRC
Arriving April 3, Porcelain marks Peach PRC’s long-awaited debut album. The 12-track set explores identity, self-acceptance, and personal evolution without any featured artists, placing full focus on her voice and perspective. Singles “Out Loud,” “Eucalyptus,” “Back to You,” and “Miss Erotica” introduce a project that leans into emotional vulnerability with polished pop production.
The Weight of the Woods – Dermot Kennedy
Also arriving April 3, Dermot Kennedy’s third studio album blends folk roots with subtle country influences. Produced largely with Gabe Simon and released via Interscope Records, the record builds on his signature emotive delivery. Tracks like “Honest,” “Refuge,” and “Funeral” preview a project grounded in introspection and raw storytelling.
Dandelion – Ella Langley
On April 10, Ella Langley returns with her sophomore album, an 18-track release co-produced with Miranda Lambert and Ben West. Anchored by the Billboard Hot 100-topping “Choosin’ Texas,” Dandelion focuses on growth, resilience, and healing, arriving after a breakthrough year that significantly expanded her audience.
Cruel World – Holly Humberstone
Holly Humberstone’s second studio album lands on April 10, offering a darker, more immersive direction. Described as a “dark fairytale,” Cruel World navigates the tension between chaos and acceptance, blending childhood imagery with introspective songwriting. The album was preceded by three singles: “Die Happy,” “To Love Somebody,” and the title track.
Superbloom – Jessie Ware
Jessie Ware continues her dancefloor-driven era with Superbloom, also out April 10. The album expands on the glossy, disco-inspired sound of That! Feels Good! while introducing more atmospheric textures. Pre-release singles “I Could Get Used to This” and “Ride” suggest a project rooted in escapism, sensuality, and lush production.
Ten Til Midnight – Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg’s new album arrives April 10 via Death Row Records, accompanied by a visual project featuring skits and interconnected music videos. Led by “Stop Counting My Pockets,” the release maintains his signature West Coast style. The project follows Iz It a Crime, released less than a year earlier.
Konnakol – Zayn
April 17 brings one of the month’s most anticipated releases. Zayn’s fifth studio album draws from South Asian musical traditions, with its title referencing rhythmic vocal percussion. Singles “Die for Me” and “Sideways” signal a return to the R&B textures of Mind of Mine, while the upcoming Konnakol Tour, launching May 12, underscores a fully realized era.
Kehlani – Kehlani
Released April 24 on her birthday, Kehlani’s self-titled fifth album presents a deeply personal statement on love and vulnerability. Following Crash, the project includes “Folded,” her biggest hit to date and a Grammy-recognized track, alongside “Out the Window.”
The Great Divide – Noah Kahan
Noah Kahan returns April 24 with a 17-track follow-up to Stick Season. The title track has already secured one of the year’s strongest Spotify debuts, setting the tone for a record centered on connection and introspection. The album is expected to expand his folk-pop sound.
Toy with Me – Meghan Trainor
Closing out the month, Meghan Trainor releases her seventh studio album on April 24. The 16-track project blends retro doo-wop influences with modern pop confidence, led by “Still Don’t Care.” Its playful “doll” aesthetic and themes of self-assurance align with her upcoming Get In Girl Tour.
