Well, this is sure to cause more baby momma drama! Nick Cannon is very publicly pining for a second chance with his ex-wife Mariah Carey!

Nick Cannon has a new single about being single, and this time, he’s speaking to his ex-wife, Mariah Carey. Although the musician and talk show host didn’t directly shout-out Mariah, the lyrics made it pretty clear about whom he was thinking, as he even sampled her 1990 song “Alone in Love” for the track. “I say I’m cool when I know I miss it / I’d trade it all for the case / If I could have you back / If I could go back to where we started at,” the lyrics say.

It’s a song about being humbled by the mind’s ability to lift us up and bring us down.“It’s grand, full of longing and bombast, but there is an uneasiness to it too.

Alexander 23 has shared a brand new single, ‘Hate Me If It Helps’, co-written by Olivia Rodrigo.The sprawling indie-pop cut marks the return of the Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and producer (real name Alexander Glantz) following the release of his 2021 EP, ‘Oh No, Not Again!’.Happy to be labelled a “bad guy” post-breakup in order for an ex to get closure, the song’s chorus hears Alexander sing: “You can hate me if it helps/ Make me out to be the villain/ Say you’re better by yourself/ So it feels like your decision/ You can tell ’em I’m the bad guy if it helps you sleep okay/ Because all you want is closure, but there’s nothing left to say/ So you can hate me if it helps/ You can hate me if it helps.”Co-written with Rodrigo – who Alexander worked with on her chart-topping hit ‘Good 4 U’ – it arrives with a beautifully shot, self-directed video. You can watch it below.This year looks set to be a big one for Alexander, whose yet-to-be-titled debut album is scheduled to arrive sometime in 2022, produced by Dan Nigro.He’s also about to head out on tour with John Mayer as support on the singer-songwriter’s ‘Sob Rock’ tour, which kicks off on February 17 in Albany, New York, and ends in Chicago, Illinois, on April 29.

There’s something cathartic about expressing that feeling to this upbeat music that’s got a sense of release and the hope of resolution.”You can listen to it here:A statement about Foals’ upcoming album, which is yet to receive a release date, said “the group started writing the album in their south London rehearsal space in the oppressive lockdown winter of 2020.”It added: “They very naturally gravitated towards writing songs with a zeal for escapism: propulsive energy, sun-kissed melodies and transportive lyrical themes, both in terms of time and space.
