MAYHEM and K‑pop teasers
Apple Music teased MAYHEM’s new release “Requiem” and social chatter also flagged BLACKPINK’s Lisa in DJ Mag alongside BamBam x Phayao trending worldwide. (x.com) Short performance clips — like Jimin’s fist‑pump moment — and Ppoohkt’s emotional live sets are also driving music social traffic this weekend. (x.com) (x.com)
Apple Music has started teasing “MAYHEM: Requiem,” extending the release cycle around Lady Gaga’s 2025 album “MAYHEM” into a new video event. (24vids.com) Apple Music’s own teaser clip surfaced on X in the last day, while Gaga’s “MAYHEM” album page remains live on the service with the 17-track standard edition released in 2025. Gaga’s official site still lists “MAYHEM” as her current album project. (24vids.com) (music.apple.com) (ladygaga.com) The teaser is landing as Gaga’s “MAYHEM” campaign keeps expanding across formats. Apple Music is also promoting a “Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM Ball Set List” playlist, and entertainment reports published April 13 and April 14 said Gaga previewed a “Mayhem Requiem” trailer tied to a future Apple release. (music.apple.com) (showbiz411.com) (justjared.com) The wider music chatter around the teaser is not just about Gaga. BLACKPINK member Lisa has been pulled into dance-music coverage after her new Anyma collaboration “Bad Angel” arrived on April 8, days before Coachella 2026. (djmag.com) (edm.com) That crossover accelerated on April 13, when DJ Mag reported that Lisa joined Anyma and Marlon Hoffstadt at Coachella’s DoLab stage for “Bad Angel” after Anyma’s Friday main-stage slot was canceled because of high winds. (djmag.com) Short clips are doing much of the work here. The social posts cited in the latest chatter package center on brief, high-emotion moments rather than full releases: a Gaga teaser, a Jimin performance reaction clip, and live-performance snippets circulating around Ppoohkt. (x.com 1) (x.com 2) (x.com 3) Jimin’s name is also traveling on the back of a bigger concert news cycle. Billboard published a full setlist from BTS’s “ARIRANG” tour kickoff at Goyang Stadium five days ago, and fan-uploaded videos from the April 9 show are already being recut into short viral moments. (billboard.com) (youtube.com) Some of the other names in the chatter, including BamBam x Phayao and Ppoohkt, are moving faster on social platforms than in English-language trade coverage. Publicly accessible mainstream reporting is thinner there than it is for Gaga, Lisa, or BTS, but the pattern is the same: clips are outrunning formal announcements. (weverse.io) (tiktok.com) For now, the clearest documented update is the Gaga one: Apple Music has put “MAYHEM: Requiem” into circulation as a coming-soon teaser, and the surrounding weekend conversation is being carried by short music clips that can spike attention before a full release date appears.
