Burna Boy’s on blistering form, Billie Eilish has stripped it back and Little Mix have enlisted the help of some famous friends.

Check out this playlist which we lovingly update every week.

Listen on Spotify and read about last week’s additions here.

Burna Boy – Kilometre

Burna Boy’s first single of 2021 is fast-paced, hard-edged and braggadocious. The intensity sounds good on him.

DJ Khaled – Every Chance I Get ft. Lil Baby & Lil Durk

Once again, DJ Khaled’s managed to get half the most famous artists on the planet on his album. And once again, only a handful of the songs are actually good. Every Chance I Get is a highlight, featuring two rappers who are in their prime alongside co-production from the minimalist mastermind Tay Keith.

LSDXOXO – The Devil

There’s been a big buzz around LSDXOXO’s raunchy, sweat-soaked anthem Sick Bitch recently. Ahead of his EP DEDICATED 2 DISRESPECT, the Berlin-based artist is sustaining the hype with another slice of dance-floor destined filth.

Little Mix – Confetti ft. Saweetie

The UK pop four-piece-turned-trio have revived their 2020 single with a new verse from Californian rap star Saweetie, recruiting Drag Race UK stars Bimini Bon-Boulash, A’Whora and Tayce to make cameos in the video.

Wesley Joseph – Ultramarine

The London-via-Walsall artist channels an eerie and tense” vibe on Ultramarine, the moonlit title track from his forthcoming debut project.

Billie Eilish – Your Power

Billie Eilish’s second album Happier Than Ever is, inevitably, going to be one of the biggest records of 2021. This stripped-back, soul-stirring ballad suggested she’s switching it up from the dark electronics of her debut.

Elle L – Hoping

The soaring, emotive debut single from the London-based musician, environmentalist and creative director.
