“Bad Angel” arrives as a key piece of Anyma’s ongoing Dawn of ÆDEN universe, blending industrial textures with a restrained, hypnotic vocal performance from LISA. Released days before Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2026, the track was expected to debut live during Anyma’s set, with LISA rumored as a surprise guest. Weather conditions forced the cancellation, but streaming momentum held strong, with the song already approaching 5 million plays on Spotify. The release also marks LISA’s first solo material since her debut album Alter Ego, as anticipation builds for her next project teased earlier this year.
Close behind, “Choka Choka” delivered one of the week’s most globally resonant moments. Anitta and Shakira trade languages across a Brazilian funk and Latin pop hybrid, with Anitta leaning into Spanish while Shakira flips into Portuguese. The track gained immediate visibility following Anitta’s April 11 performance on Saturday Night Live, where she previewed material from her upcoming album Equilibrium, due April 16.
Further down the ranking, “Runway” channels ballroom culture through a polished house-rap fusion. Gaga first teased the track in promotional material for the upcoming sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, later performing it live during a Minnesota stop on her Mayhem Ball Tour.
Meanwhile, KATSEYE’s “Pinky Up” reflects a transitional moment for the group. Released on April 9 just ahead of their Coachella debut, the song pairs glossy pop production with a high-fashion visual identity. Its chart climb into the Daily Global Spotify Top 20 underscores continued demand, even as the group navigates lineup changes following Manon’s hiatus.
