Somebody that I Used to Know — Gotye (feat. Kimbra)

When the world needed Gotye the most, he vanished — but not before leaving an absolute banger. Many consider Gotye a one hit wonder, as he topped the charts then vanished from the face of the earth. However, his stint of success with his hit single “Somebody that I Used to Know” was enough to dominate the charts and the music industry for a bit. 

WHARF TALK — Tyler the Creator featuring A$AP Rocky

Tyler the Creator is a hit-maker. The deluxe version of his album “CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST: The Estate Sale” features eight new promising songs, including “WHARF TALK” featuring A$AP Rocky.

As the saying goes, out with the old and in with the new. This song is the perfect remedy for the growing pains that may come with a new season.

Dang! — Mac Miller

Mac Miller’s album “The Divine Feminine” is a classic. Released in 2016, the album showcases Mac Miller’s musical versatility and leaves a lasting impression on his legacy.

Lost — Frank Ocean

It’s not lost on many that Frank Ocean is one of the most impactful artists of this generation. Frank Ocean exemplifies the phrase “less is more” as he has a shorter discography than most of his peers, but his music continues to be timeless as it consistently resonates with new audiences. 

Want U Around (feat. Ruel) — Omar Apollo
