LOVE LIKE THIS – ZAYN
Zayn swerves left on his musical comeback by giving us a breakdance/pop inspired love song that opens an exciting new era for the musician.
MAYBE NEXT TIME – JAMIE MILLER AND MOIRA DELA TORRE
Rumor has it that the angles got jealous when they heard Jamie and Moira on the track together. The vocals and emotions are at a 10.
COOL WITH YOU – NEWJEANS
NewJeans + house music = match made in heaven. It’s just so efforlessly stylish.
MAN I AM – SAM SMITH
We love how the track features a message that might play into toxic masculinity but packaged in 80s pop for a more tongue-and-cheek take.
THE WAY THINGS GO – BEABADOOBEE
beabadoobee’s sentimental new single delves into the things not said in a breakup. And honestly, you can find peace by leaving a relationship at that.
ISTJ – NCT DREAM
You’ll never catch NCT Dream slipping when it comes to experimentation in their music, like with their latest comeback single that radiates SM Entertainment energy.
DELI – ICE SPICE
Were we shaking the jelly before we wrote this? Maybe. That beat is god-tier catchy and will get the party started at the club.
K-POP – TRAVIS SCOTT, BAD BUNNY, AND THE WEEKND
What exactly does this song have to do with K-pop? Nothing at all. But it’s still a vibe.
INVITED – STEPHANIE POETRI
Stephanie really gave us a bop and an anthem for all the introverts. While introverts get anxious in parties and other social meet-ups, that doesn’t mean they don’t want to be invited to the events. Stephanie captures that feeling to a T in her number about wanting to meet someone and also not wanting to go.
MIND YOUR BUSINESS – WILL.I.AM AND BRITNEY SPEARS
That was a cute beat. Let’s hope this will be the start of more music releases from queen Britney
OKAY LANG AKO 3 – INIGO PASCUAL
While Inigo is often known for his dance and fast-paced tracks, he slows things down as he goes on an emotional journey in his latest release. The heartfelt track unleashes a new side of Inigo as he embraces vulnerability and discovers more inspirations and aspirations in songwriting that he had not explored before.
BOXES – ROSIE DARLING
Boxes is a beautifully relatable track showcases Rosie’s stunning voice and lyrics that all of us can identify with about transitions, growth, and change.
LIAN DYOGI – ONLY HAVE TODAY
Inspired by long-distance love in the pandemic, Only Have Today is an electro-pop track with house and Asian elements that serves as a call to be brave in each imperfect fleeting moment.
