Read about last week’s playlist additions here.
Doja Cat – Bottom Bitch
After going viral with her agriculturally-themed hit Mooo!, Doja Cat’s proved herself to be a properly good artist with hits like Tia Tamera and Juicy. Bottom Bitch samples Blink-182’s What’s My Age Again? It’s hard to remember the last time someone merged rap and pop-punk and made it sound this good.
WizKid – Joro
On Nigerian Independence Day, the Lagos superstar continued his prolific streak with this silky smooth single.
King Princess – Hit The Back
“the anthem for bottoms everywhere.”
Tyler, the Creator – Earfquake (Channel Tres remix)
Compton-raised artist Channel Tres makes slick vocal house for soundtracking aimless drives around the city at sundown. Precisely the kind of vibe Tyler, the Creator would approve of – so much, in fact, that he commissioned Tres for the first ever official remix of his material.
Summer Walker – Come Thru ft. Usher
Atlanta singer Summer Walker just dropper her debut LP Over It, which has been blessed by the contribution of an R&B legend.
No Rome – Talk Nice
The Manilla-raised, London-based “alt-pop star” makes catchy and sensitive music with a touch of emo, making him a natural labelmate to The 1975.
