[Luke Combs](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/15/arts/music/luke-combs-growing-up.html) perfects the humblebrag in “5 Leaf Clover.” It’s a sturdy waltz that exults in a good life: hometown, partner, friends, a truck in the driveway, healthy parents and “a fridge full of cold beer,” not to mention a tail-wagging dog. Alynda Segarra of Hurray for the Riff Raff harmonizes with Rose on the chorus, on which the pair dispense some bittersweet wisdom: “You know there’s no place safe to run/Angels surround everyone.” ZOLADZ [100 gecs](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/28/arts/music/100-gecs-10000-gecs.html), opens with a pretty hilarious sonic joke: a sample of the nostalgic and evocative THX Deep Note, as if to say, 100 gecs: Now in Glistening Hi-Fi.

This week's Star Tracks playlist also includes new music from JPEGMAFIA and Danny Brown, Lonnie Holley and Invent Animate.

[Eight dollars too much, this past expensive](https://www.thestar.com/business/technology/2022/11/05/elon-musks-8-monthly-twitter-verification-scheme-is-officially-live-for-some-heres-what-that-means.html),” JPEGMAFIA declares at the outset of “Lean Beef Patty,” the delightfully topical and unhinged lead single from the rapper’s upcoming collaborative album with Danny Brown. At 29, Holley began working as an artist, his earliest works comprised of sandstone carvings and “sculptures constructed nearly entirely from salvaged junkyard detritus.” His artwork was eventually acquired by the Birmingham Museum of Art and the Smithsonian. Diddy’s 2002 hit [“I Need A Girl”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGUttrXgzLI) that has been sped up to oblivion, the Baltimore artist takes explicit aim at disgraced superstar Kanye West and pizza mogul Papa John, and sneaks in subtle shots at Drake and Lil Yachty. Released last week, Holley’s second album, “Oh Me Oh My,” is a poignant collection of songs and spoken-word reflections on suffering, resilience, memory and mortality, one that recalls other retrospective late-life releases from titans like Gil Scott-Heron, Leonard Cohen and David Bowie. [THX theme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPQmyUKo48A), the track pivots to guitar riff that sounds like it could be written by Deryck Whibley in 2001, before transitioning into hip-hop inflected verse with a distorted bass line lifted directly from “ [SICKO MODE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ONRf7h3Mdk).” It’s bizarre, and, in the wrong context, very annoying. The track is crushing and powerful, and it’s another a great move by the band to showcase some range in a genre that often places too much emphasis on guitar-driven breakdowns. On Friday, the duo of Dylan Brady and Laura Les released their highly-anticipated sophomore project, “10,000 gecs,” a “ Following a (hilarious) sample of the [berzerkus](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PWMiy4RysI)” 26-minutes of chaos that swings wildly between abrasive noise and undeniably hooks. “In the middle of the night / should you find me still looked over / String the fiddle up tight / And softly play me off,” vocalist Matt Ellis lilts amid glistening strings and mandolin “Play the Fiddle All Night.” Indeed, the album’s boot-stomping climax acts as reminder that life is short, and it can be cruel — so grab a pint, hit the pub, and celebrate while you can. “Drop everything now,” goes the oft-quoted tag line of Taylor Swift’s 2010 coming-of-age album, “Speak Now.” And drop everything, Swift has. Star Tracks compiles the most interesting new music from a broad range of established and emerging artists.

After Taylor Swift dropped “All of the Girls You Loved Before,” fans immediately began to speculate that the new song is inspired by boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

Another fan [added](https://twitter.com/holdontoyou13/status/1636587044938952704), "The meaning of this song is so special, Taylor is so grateful to have found a man like Joe that she's grateful for everyone that made him him how pure is that???" "Every dead-end street led you straight to me / Now you're all I need, I'm so thankful for all of the girls you loved before."
