New Music Friday: The Top 10 Albums Out On June 25

The artist known as Doja Cat is back this week with a vibrant, unapologetic celebration of youth and sex on Planet Her. We kickoff this week's crazy-packed show with the song "Payday" and talk about the ways Doja Cat leans more into pop singing and less on the rap that has defined much of her career.

We've also got highly anticipated releases from Tyler, The Creator, SAULT, Lucy Dacus, Cautious Clay and more.
