Alt Pop

Apple Music Alternative
Updated Thursday

Editors’ Notes Dive into the edgier side of modern pop, where dance beats collide with sharp riffs, soulful R&B meets visceral rock, and rafter-shaking choruses slip into off-kilter melodies. These are the chart-toppers and up-and-comers who, somehow, keep it both innovative and impossibly catchy. We regularly refresh this playlist. If you like a song, add it to your library.
