Madonna and Peggy Gou‘s “I Feel So Free (Peggy Gou Energy Mix)” tops this week’s best new music poll.
Listeners voted in a poll published Friday (May 15) on Billboard, choosing the dancefloor-ready remix as their favorite music release of the week over a stacked field that included Drake’s historic triple album drop and new projects from Maluma, Gracie Abrams, Givēon and more.
The winning single is the latest preview of Madonna’s forthcoming album Confessions II, due July 3 — her first full-length release in seven years and the long-awaited sequel to her landmark 2005 dance record Confessions on a Dance Floor.
The original “I Feel So Free” was co-produced by Stuart Price, who helmed the original Confessions on a Dance Floor and serves as musical director on several of Madonna’s tours. The Peggy Gou remix transforms the track into a bouncy, high-energy club anthem that leans into the Berlin-based DJ and producer’s signature house sound — a natural pairing given Gou’s crossover breakthrough with her 2023 hit “(It Goes Like) Nanana”.
Madonna teased the track during her surprise appearance at Sabrina Carpenter’s Coachella weekend two headlining set last month, where the two also performed “Like a Prayer” together and debuted what appeared to be another new track from Confessions II.
The biggest competition in the poll this week came from Drake, who dominated New Music Friday with a sweeping triple album drop — Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour — comprising a combined 43 tracks featuring Future, Molly Santana, Sexyy Red, PARTYNEXTDOOR and 21 Savage.
Maluma also made a strong showing with his new album Loco X Volver, in which the Colombian superstar sharpens his focus on family and his roots.
Gracie Abrams entered the race with “Hit the Wall,” the lead single from her forthcoming album Daughter From Hell, once again joining forces with producer Aaron Dessner for a verbose track that signals a more mature creative chapter. Tove Lo dropped “I’m Your Girl Right?” — the dance-floor-ready first taste of her upcoming Estrus LP — while Rostam and Clairo teamed up on “Hardy” from Rostam’s new American Stories album.
Elsewhere, Jorja Smith delivered the basement club-tinged “What’s Done Is Done,” Shakira and Burna Boy linked up on “Dai Dai,” and Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran reunited on “Repeat It.” Full projects also arrived from Givēon (Beloved: Act II), Shaggy (Lottery), Kenny Mason (Bulldawg), Mýa (Retrospect), Tone Stith (The Edge), and Tank and the Bangas (The Last Balloon).
