98° RELEASE SURPRISE NEW SINGLE

NEW YORK, NY (April 29, 2025) –  Ahead of their highly-anticipated new album, Full Circle, available next week via XOXO Entertainment Corp., 98° dropped a surprise new track “Stranger Things (Have Happened)” today in anticipation of the full-length studio record. Full Circle isa blend of past and present, the record features five brand-new tracks alongside re-recordings of their biggest hits, giving the group full ownership of the songs that helped define late ‘90s and early 2000s pop.

Jeff Timmons shares “The song is a nod to the wildly popular Netflix series Stranger Things, and like the TV show combines old with the new, mixing vintage synth sounds with modern production, while also showcasing smooth melodies and the lush harmonies 98 Degrees is best known for. The fans are going to LOVE IT!”

Managed by the legendary Johnny Wright and Joe Lilak at Wright Entertainment Group, 98° has sold over 15 million albums worldwide, earning eight Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, four Top 10 singles, and a No. 2 smash with “Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)” in 2000. Their signature harmonies and R&B-tinged ballads became anthems of an era, from “The Hardest Thing” (No. 5, Billboard Hot 100) to “Because of You” (No. 3, Billboard Hot 100, Platinum-certified), securing their status as one of the most successful vocal groups of their time.

Unlike their peers, 98° wasn’t manufactured by a label—they formed organically, built their fanbase from the ground up, and defied the pop industry’s formulaic mold. Their commitment to staying authentic and adaptable has kept them a force in music for decades. As they prepare to take Full Circle on the road, they are proving that longevity in pop music is about taking control of your own history.

98° will kick off their album release with a series of live events and in-person signings:

Full Circle is available Friday, May 9 on all digital streaming platforms, LP vinyl, and CD.
