The Best New Music You Need to Hear (& Why)
1 FKA twigs - jealousy (ft. Rema)- Every day FKA twigs drops is a good day. Add Rema to the equation and I've got this song set on repeat for the coming months. A swanky Afrobeats tune about obsession, desire, and – of course – jealousy.
2 The Game - Eazy (ft. Kanye West) - Named after Eazy-E whose "Eazy Duz It" song is predominantly sampled in the production, this track gives us the best of Kanye and The Game — with Ye giving us a candid peak into his ongoing divorce and personal life.
3 JID - Surround Sound (ft. 21 Savage & Baby Tate) - Atlanta innovators JID, 21 Savage, and Baby Tate on one song... need I say more?
4 Kojey Radical - Payback (ft. Knucks)- Ahead of his forthcoming album, the inimitable Kojey Radical reminds us of his prowess and versatility and joins forces with Knucks.
5 Cordae - Sinister (ft. Lil Wayne)- On this boom-bap cut, Cordae links up with hip-hop royalty Lil Wayne for the sinister second single of his sophomore album.
