Track Of The Week
Naomi Sharon – “Better Days”
I don’t usually post slow burn ballads, but this one actually impressed me. Strong presence.
Kehlani, Clipse – “No Such Thing”
Favorite track off her new album. This might require a second listen to fully appreciate how dope it is. It’s a modern-day radio-ready 90’s R&B/Hip Hop collab. Love it.
Naza – “Manie”
I haven’t heard a great catchy pop hit in a couple months, so I branched out to France’s new music releases to keep hunting for one worth posting and heard this gem. Love the high fashion vibe of this song. Reminds me of that early ’10s global electro pop sound. Super chic. Fun video too. We hear a lot of Spanish and Korean pop music in the mainstream now (and I’ve even posted a few), so why not a bit more French?!
John Summit, Feid – “CHICA 305”
I was debating whether to post this, because it’s so similar to a huge song he released a few years ago. But you know what, I have to admit, this is even better.
Che Ecru – “Imagine”
Interesting track. Indie R&B with Indie Pop sensibilities, or something like that.
Ebubé – “A Mile In My Mind”
A run of good new Indie R&B in this week’s new releases capped off by this track by Ebubé, an impressive voice to keep an eye out for.
Shenseea, Vybz Kartel, Rvssian – “Talk To Me Nuh”
Look out for this song, and this specific style of Dancehall, Shatta, to become huge.
Essosa – “Touch bby”
My favorite R&B track of the year so far.
Micah Dailey-White – “Stacy”
What a pleasant surprise. Nice modern 80’s style synth-pop vibe that’s actually one of the more impressive new songs of the year so far.
