Each week The FADER staff rounds up the songs we can't stop playing. Here they are, in no particular order.
BlocBoy JB & Drake, "Look Alive"
BlocBoy JB and Drake linked up in Memphis and the result, "Look Alive," is a banger that's full of standout lines like: "I'ma spray 'em just like fuh-breeze."
Chloe x Halle, "The Kids Are Alright"
The production behind "The Kids Are Alright" may be simple, but add Chloe x Halle's stunning, complex harmonies and you've got something that shines.
Iceage, "Catch It"
Iceage's "Catch It" begins like a lazy rock track that suddenly goes full-throttle in the last minute or so — hit play for an exhilarating ride.
Mr Real feat. Idowest, Obadice, "Legbegbe"
Mr Real's "Legbegbe" is the joyous and utterly danceable track spinning afropop on its head. And we can't help but smile when he starts counting up from iPhone 1 to iPhone 8.
