Good news for music lovers! This week wraps up with a wave of exciting new releases — including the long-awaited soundtrack to Wicked: For Good.
Arriving exactly one year after the first half of the Wicked soundtrack debuted alongside the original film in November 2024, the Part 2 soundtrack officially hit streaming platforms on Friday (Nov. 21). Released through Universal Pictures and Republic Records, the project dropped the same day Wicked: For Good premiered in theaters around the world. Fans can now enjoy every song featured in the second half of the Broadway musical adaptation, along with two brand-new tracks performed by Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo: “The Girl in the Bubble” and “No Place Like Home.”
But the Wicked soundtrack isn’t the only big release capturing attention this week. Tate McRae rolled out the deluxe edition of her Billboard 200 No. 1 album So Close to What, which includes her Billboard Hot 100 hit “Tit for Tat.” Meanwhile, BigXthaPlug — fresh off his standout moment at the 2025 CMAs — delivered an expanded edition of his project I Hope You’re Happy.
There’s even more to explore. Stray Kids delivered a high-energy, five-track EP titled DO IT. Tainy and Karol G joined forces for their new single “Ünica,” and The Kid LAROI blessed fans with a fresh track called “A Perfect World.”
From blockbuster soundtracks to deluxe albums and brand-new singles, this week is packed with music worth diving into. And now, Billboard wants to hear from you. Which release are you playing nonstop?
