i-dle Release New Single “Crow”
Internationally acclaimed, chart-topping K-pop powerhouse i-dle returns with their striking new single, “Crow,” out now via CUBE Entertainment. The track offers a first glimpse into the group’s highly anticipated forthcoming mini album, We made, arriving July 6. The release is part of an exciting new chapter for the global superstars, who will take the stage at Lollapalooza this summer for one of their biggest U.S. appearances to date.
“Crow” is a powerful, rock-infused anthem that embodies i-dle’s signature confidence and self-determination. Driven by soaring guitars and an unshakable sense of purpose, the track delivers a message of resilience and independence, declaring that the group is no longer guided by fate or chance, but by their own vision and conviction.
“Crow” arrives on the heels of a breakout run for i-dle in the U.S. that has seen the group continue its rapid ascent as a global phenomenon. Following the release of their acclaimed single “Mono,” i-dle landed a digital cover of PAPER Magazine, earning praise for their artistic vision and cultural impact. The group also captivated national audiences with performances on The TODAY Show and The Kelly Clarkson Show, further demonstrating the commanding stage presence and live vocal prowess that have become hallmarks of their success. With a major Lollapalooza appearance and new music on the horizon, i-dle’s momentum shows no signs of slowing down.

Malcolm Todd Announces 2026 North American Tour
Following the release of his new album Do That Again, out now via Columbia Records, Malcolm Todd announces his 2026 North American tour. The tour promoted by Live Nation, kicks off September 2nd in Irving, TX, and will bring Malcolm’s high-energy live show to his biggest venues to date across North America, including New York’s Radio City Music Hall, Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre, The Anthem in Washington, DC, The Salt Shed in Chicago, MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston, and more.
Do That Again is taking over streaming platforms, with all 13 tracks from the album hitting the U.S. Spotify Chart this week while the project rises to #5 on the Apple Music Top 200 Albums Chart alongside catalog standouts “Earrings” “Sweet Boy”, and “Roommates.” Malcolm now has 16 songs charting in the U.S., marking one of the biggest streaming moments of his career.
The album is also earning early critical praise, including a four-star review from Rolling Stone. Malcolm made his debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on the eve of the album’s arrival, performing “I Saw Your Face” live for the first time alongside his RIAA Platinum-certified single “Earrings.”
Across Do That Again, Malcolm steps into the promise of a fully formed pop star, threading classic pop songwriting through a modern R&B lens with humor, instinct, and meticulous detail holding it all together. Written in the blur after a breakthrough year on the road, the album captures Malcolm in motion: newly untethered, creatively locked in, and suddenly aware that the private moments he writes through are now being sung back by thousands of people.
That connection has already translated into real live demand. Three years ago, Malcolm had never played a show. Last year, he moved 100,000 tickets across three continents in a single touring cycle. Last week, he joined Don Toliver on stage at Madison Square Garden after his RIAA Platinum-certified “Chest Pain (I Love)” took on a second life through Don Toliver’s hit song “E85.”
TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale (details below) on Tuesday, June 9 at 10 am local time. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning on Thursday, June 11 at 10am local time at MalcolmTodd/Tour.
PRESALE: To participate in the Malcolm Todd artist presale on Tuesday, June 9 at 10 am local time you must sign up via seated HERE.
VIP: The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level. Packages vary but include premium tickets, Meet & Greet and individual photo op with Malcolm Todd, access to the pre-show Q+A and acoustic performance, early entry into the venue & more.
