Ariana Grande \u2013 \u201cPetal\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

On the lining of Ariana Grande\u2019s \u201cpetal\u201d, there\u2019s a jagged edge. With the latest single from her eighth studio album, she haunts and taunts, simmering between belt and whisper, as she sings \u201cLong as she gets the ovation each night \/ Heartbreak won\u2019t bite, this is paradis\u0435.<\/em>\u201d It\u2019s a lace-trimmed middle finger to the naysayers on an album where the releases suggest she has quite a bit to say \u2013 it appears it\u2019s the return of the Dangerous Woman\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

Rachel Chinouriri \u2013 \u201cOne song away from crying\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

And just when we\u2019re \u201cOne song away from crying\u201d, British pop darling Rachel Chinouriri returns with a glittering tune ahead of her October-releasing sophomore album; I think I spoke too soon<\/em>. Pulsing joyous chords against a slightly sombre melody, she unpacks that feeling of being on the \u201cprecipice of a night out where you know you need to leave and have to make a decision\u201d, only the decision isn\u2019t at all about the night, but about that inner wrestling with one\u2019s self-value.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Remi Wolf \u2013 \u201cTwiggy\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

It\u2019s not every day you get to debut a new song with an icon like Hayley Williams, but as is the case for singer-songwriter Remi Wolf, who teased her newest single, \u201cTwiggy\u201d alongside the Paramore singer at the Newport Folk Festival. Between belts and yodels, this folk-fused ballad teases Remi at her most fearless and free.<\/p>\n

Karol G \u2013 \u201cMatadora\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Karol G plays every part of the \u201cMatadora\u201d on this bold, high-octane anthem that revels in confidence, desire and unapologetic self-possession. Debuted live during the opening night of her Viajando por el Mundo Tropitour<\/em> in Chicago, the track pulses with an infectiously pert energy as she embraces attraction and sensuality on her own terms. Playful in a way she has become adorned for, and sweetly provocative, the Colombian singer-songwriter is impossible to resist on this track.<\/p>\n


<\/strong>Nemzzz \u2013 \u201cPrince Of The Scene\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Ciar\u00e1n \u2013 \u201cK-Bar\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

BROCKHAMPTON\u2019S Ciar\u00e1n is drawing a \u201cK-Bar\u201d to Bearface with the lead single from his forthcoming (untitled) debut album as a solo artist. Opening with a rush of blown-out undecipherable distortion, the track levels out into a hazy, low-hum groove. Over his soft and careful vocals, jagged synths, heavy bass instrumentation and cut-up percussion sizzle; it\u2019s both intimate and confronting \u2013 and a sure homecoming from a much-missed artist.<\/p>\n

Coco & Clair Clair \u2013 \u201cColdplay\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

With features from international friends like Tyla, Shenseea, Skillibeng and Yailin La M\u00e1s Viral, she saunters seamlessly through the sonic fervour of the rumble of reggaeton, the fizzling of futuristic pop, the bumping of Afrobeats, and the droning of dancehall.<\/p>\n

H.LLS \u2013 \u201cHMU\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Anonymous disruptors H.LLS are back with their latest broody party starting banger, \u201cHMU\u201d.

He\u2019s far from done.<\/p>\n

no na \u2013 \u201chonk!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Hear that \u201chonk!\u201d? It\u2019s the no na girls, and on their latest single, they\u2019re both racy and radiant. With searing sirens and droning beats, the Indonesian girl group is sounding the alarm of their pop-R&B sonic lexicon. Here they go bar for bar, sashaying between sexy melody and sassy lyricism \u2013 the girls are so back.<\/p>\n

Pretty Sick \u2013 \u201cCity Kid\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Pretty Sick captures the essence of being a \u201cCity Kid\u201d on this bass-thumping track by the three-piece ensemble. Meshing electronic melodies with indie-pop sonic quips, this fusion exudes that feeling of chaos that comes with being a product of city life, and still running back to it \u2013 \u201cfor better or for worse,\u201d as their vocalist Sabrina Fuentes says. Having grown up in New York City, you can almost hear the droning beep of the yellow taxis and the whizz of the subway.<\/p>\n

daisy* \u2013 \u201csunbleach\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n
