Circles - Mac Miller

A tender posthumous follow-up to Swimming.

Manic - Halsey

There's really no need to create any more interludes ever now that Halsey and Alanis Morissette have collaborated on one.

"Being Sad Is Not A Crime" - Soko

Is Soko ever not delightful?

"Black Qualls" - Thundercat ft. Steve Lacy, Steve Arrington

Thundercat is at his most funky and off-kilter in this new collab.

"Burned Off" - Vundabar

Vundabar has finally returned with a fresh sound and confident vocal swagger.

"Today" - Mura Masa ft. Tirzah

Forever in need of another emo acoustic ballad.

This music video is a... journey, to say the least.

"Stone Me" - Margo Price

This latest release from Price has the makings of a bittersweet folk-pop anthem.

Does Tove Lo need a +1 to her next party? This is the kind of energy everyone should be aspiring to in 2020.
