The Best New Music You Need to Hear (& Why)
1 Roddy Ricch - don’t i (ft. Gunna) - Few people in modern hip-hop flow on a beat like Roddy Ricch. But on his hotly anticipated album, the Compton rapper found another MC with that rare ability: Gunna. "don't i" is the best of them both.
2 Juice WRLD - Burn - Opening his second posthumous album Fighting Demons, "Burn" is a moving introduction to the rapper's tragic demise and reminds us of the star we lost and just why his story is so important.
3 Burna Boy - B. D’OR (ft. Wizkid) - The African Giant ends the year with a bang, linking up with the Starboy himself, Wizkid, for a winning anthem.
4 Aaliyah - Poison (ft. The Weeknd) - Um... I didn't see this one coming. But yes, today is the day we got an Aaliyah and The Weeknd collab and it's stunning.
5 Joey B - GORILLA (ft. Yaw Tog)- As soon as the DJ Krept production kicks off, you know you're in for a menacing drill track. And Ghanaian rappers Joey B and Yaw Tog move accordingly, dropping smoke over the thumping beat.
