The staff of Pitchfork listens to a lot of new music. A lot of it. On any given day our writers, editors, and contributors go through an imposing number of new releases, giving recommendations to each other and discovering new favorites along the way. Each Monday, with our Pitchfork Selects playlist, we\u2019re sharing what our writers are playing obsessively and highlighting some of the Pitchfork staff\u2019s favorite new music. The playlist is a grab-bag of tracks: Its only guiding principle is that these are the songs you\u2019d gladly send to a friend.<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s Pitchfork Selects playlist features Yaya Bey, Baby Keem, Visible Cloaks, and more. Listen below and follow our playlists on Apple Music and Spotify. (Pitchfork earns a commission from purchases made through affiliate links on our site.)<\/em><\/p>\n
