Sam Smith has released a new song following a two-year hiatus

After a two year hiatus Sam Smith has made an epic comeback with a powerful ballad. The singer dropped Love Me More and told their fans online that the song was for anyone who feels different and has to stop themselves for being unkind to themselves every day. Sam, who last released music in 2020 with their album Love Goes, also shared an accompanying music video for the track which is out now.

Lizzo has said she would 'love' to collaborate with K-Pop sensations BTS. The singer was appearing on a recent episode of the Audacy podcast when she admitted that she and BTS member J-Hope were good friend and spending time texting back and forth. Lizzo added she has to be careful what she says due to the group's huge fanbase, but that she would 'asbolutely' work the band in future. We're keeping our fingers crossed!
