AllMusic New Releases Roundup 11/19/13: Catching Fire Soundtrack, Yo Gotti, & Jake Bugg

New Music Releases: Catching Fire Official Sountrack, Plus Yo Gotti and Jake Bugg Debut New Albums

From the big screen to our stereos, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is taking over! The Official Motion Picture Soundtrack hits shelves this week, just ahead of the film's release. Also, rapper Yo Gotti and Jake Bugg drop their own brand-new albums. Get the details.

Stay cool, 'cause we're Catching Fire in this week's AllMusic New Releases Roundup.

The next round of the Hunger Games begins Friday, but you can start your Catching Fire experience now by taking the soundtrack for a spin. Where the first flick favored brooding folk, the Catching Fire takes inspiration from the decadent Capitol and collects anthemic songs from artists like Coldplay, Christina Aguilera and even punk icon Patti Smith.

The beat goes on with the latest from Memphis rapper Yo Gotti. 'I Am' smooths out the stitched-together sound of his mainstream debut last year, serving hard-hitting jams like "I Know" and more easy-flowing grooves like "Cold Blood" with J. Cole.

And when it's time to wind down, check out Jake Bugg's sophomore album, Shangri La. Joined by super producer Rick Rubin, the young singer-songwriter goes electric but doesn't sacrifice the earthiness of his '60s folk-rock throwback.
