Every main pop girl must have her indie-rock phase, so if this is what it takes for Lenae to cement her status as one of the greats, then so be it. And while the song\u2019s luscious, bedroom-pop sheen marks a new sonic chapter for the singer, \u201cBobby\u201d still has all the makings of a Ravyn Lenae<\/a> classic at its core: paper-soft vocals, a sticky chorus, and a dreamy soundscape tying it all together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

An honest song about depression and the collateral damage it leaves in its wake, soundtracked to a deceivingly hypnotic and carefree trip-hop beat. It sonically encapsulates the racing thoughts and restless rumination that comes with this disease, and will surely stick with you for a long time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Two words: Subdued disco. Praising Thundercat for his grooves is old hat at this point, but c\u2019mon \u2014 this guy knows what he\u2019s doing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We recommend listening to this one with earplugs underneath a pair of over-the-ear headphones. It\u2019s raucous, it\u2019s hostile, and if you\u2019re not careful, it\u2019ll blow your eardrums out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A melancholic ode to long distance, ardent angel-number subscribers are not ready for the realness that is: \u201cFour, four, four is some bullsh*t \/ But I count on it every night.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

New road trip anthem just dropped. This song is for anyone who has fantasized about leaving the city before, which is to say it\u2019s a song for everyone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I\u2019m a simple woman: Give me a couple electric guitars and a rageful song about fame and I\u2019m sold. This track is filled with scathing one-liners about the fame machine, but my favorite has to be the closing line: \u201cIf your name\u2019s on the list, just say you saw nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This song is incredible on its own, but if you\u2019re not listening to its preceding track \u201cEVERYTHING I\u2019VE EVER WANTED\u201d first, you\u2019re only getting half the story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
