Billie Eilish is back this week with what is by far one of the year's most anticipated releases, her sophomore full-length, Happier Than Ever. At just 19 years old, the singer has dominated the pop music landscape over the past couple of years with a singular sound, a fearless confidence and genuine grace. On this week's show, we give a listen to Happier Than Ever and talk about the many ways it impresses, including Billie Eilish's gift for seeing the beauty - and humor - in everything creepy.
We've also got the first new music in five years from rapper Isaiah Rashad, a long-lost Prince album, the Jack Antonoff project Bleachers, the singer Yola and more. NPR Music's Ann Powers, Alt.Latino host Felix Contreras and Lyndsey McKenna join Radio Milwaukee's Tarik Moody and WXPN's John Morrison, along with host Robin Hilton, as they share their picks for the best new albums out on July 30.
