Miley Cyrus and Pharrell reportedly worked on their newly released song “Doctor (Work It Out)” circa her 2013 Bangerz era — and now, more than a decade later, they’ve gifted fans with the upbeat single and a feel-good video to match.
On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are talking about where the song might live — on a new Pharrell album? Or a new Miley project? Or is it just a one-off treat? And why was it scrapped from Bangerz in the first place?
Listen to our full conversation below:
Also on the show, we’re discussing Rihanna’s private, pre-wedding performance in India – which marked her first full concert since her Anti World Tour back in 2016. Could she be rehearsing for something bigger? Plus, we’ve got chart news on how the Korean pop girl group TWICE lands its first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, and with fellow K-pop girl group LE SSERAFIM debuting in the top 10 as well, they team up for a big week for all-female groups in the top 10.
