Young Thug’s been one of my favorite hip hop acts of the past year or so. While I’m so ready for the skrrt skrrt days of hip hop to end, I still have a hard time turning this track off. Got some seriously catchy flow.


kayex#4. Kayex – The Get Up

Kayex get the disco vibes going. Digging how they handle the vocals.


the chainsmokers#3. The Chainsmokers Feat. Emily Warren – Side Effects

Some bands just have that formula down. The one that you know will result in a track getting major radio airtime. Side Effects is one of those tracks.


gilligan moss#2. Gilligan Moss – Fever

If you’re going to make a track that has only about 15 words in it, they better be damn catchy words. Fever makes the cut.


j ember#1. J Ember – Something More

That chorus. That whining guitar. Screams of good ol sexy rock tracks that graced us back in the day.
