Empire's latest batch of earworms have arrived! The Fox hit has released a pair of new tunes from season two, and guess what? They're just as catchy as your faves from season one.

The first, a banger featuring Pitbull called "No Doubt About It," is more "You're So Beautiful" than "Drip Drop"—it's got a killer chorus (sung by your TV boyfriend Jussie Smollett) and of course the guest verse from Mr. Worldwide doesn't hurt. Who can hate a song that rhymes "dance floor" with "ass for"? ("Baby if you ain't on the dance floor, then baby what you got all that ass for," Mr. 305, who wrote the song with Ne-Yo, inquires.)

The second features Smollett singing a hook for his TV brother, Bryshere "Yazz" Gray, on a track called "Ain't About the Money." Both songs premiered on iHeartRadio on Thursday, Sept. 3, and will be available on iTunes and Spotify on Friday—but you can listen to them both below!

"No Doubt About It" and "Ain't About the Money" will both be included on the upcoming album Empire: Original Soundtrack from Season 2 Volume 1, which is set to be released later in 2015. The first Empire soundtrack debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.

Empire season two, which returns Wednesday, Sept. 23, at 9 p.m. on Fox, will pick up three months after Lucious was arrested and thrown in prison with Cookie making a play for the company. Soon, the dysfunctional Lyons family will have to team up to battle a far more sinister external threat.
