"Late Night Talking" - Harry Styles
“If you’re feeling down, I just wanna make you happier, baby!” he asserts on the zappy Passion Pit-sounding “Late Night Talking.”
"The only thing that's harder than sleeping alone is sleeping with your ghost..." The new perfect song to ugly-cry to when you're alone.
Slidin' - Jason Derulo feat. Kodak Black
This is a fiery pop treasure. The track is primarily ruled by a thunderous musical arrangement reminiscent of Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” and beatific vocal turns by Derulo.
This track shuffles between finger snaps, jazzy piano and a hammering beat is an anthem for the geeky homebodies who never got into the parties.
Sweet tender love song with very sharp and nifty acoustic guitar stylings.
Magnus Haven takes a break from those pop-rock hugot songs and comes up with a run-of-the-mill pop-reggae song spliced with the April Boys sonic DNA.
Tagalog-Visayan-English Indie-pop rock song that shuffles between slick and fiery.
"Higit Sa Mundo" - Hey, It's Je
A high falsetto note away from being a lo-fi falsettocore anthem of love and devotion.
"Ikaw" - Guddhist Gunatita, Trvmata, & Illest Morena
A spacey and dreamy hip-hop love song loaded with multis.
A laidback version of the previous track; replace the video game cadence with winding orchestral loops and replace the multis with lazy sing-song raps.
The modern gospel duo turn the funk up and come out of it like queens, yasss!
“I wouldn’t wish this love on my worst enemy...” Is there a more damning summary of a failed relationship than that?
"Dope" - John Legend feat. JID
In this track, JL and JID jam about their obsession to the women they love on the warm, cheerful, and organ-anchored joint. “She’s so dope/Wanna be her dope fiend/She showed me what dope mean,” Legend croons on the chorus. “She’s so dope/She can be my dope queen/We can make a dope scene, yeah.”
"we're not kids anymore" - Cat Burns
A significant, poignant rumination on the personal ties that feel indissoluble until you mature and organically wander away from each other until that relationship feels like it never been: “Friendships can last a lifetime, but then sometimes they just don’t”. It is a striking, laidback track with transcendent vocals from Burns leading the flourishing vocal arrangements.
A great commiserating track on loneliness.
