here<\/a> and check out this week’s tracks, below.<\/p>\nSong of the Week: Mark Williams Lewis – “Tomorrow Is Perfect”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
“Tomorrow Is Perfect” is a song you wanna live in forever \u2013 on some Chris Isaak shit or something. With his voice stripped of its usual reverb, Mark William Lewis sounds like a long-lost crooner, Jamie Neville’s understated production letting his lyrics and intense baritone speak for themselves. Although little changes over the song’s near-seven minutes, it’s a gorgeous world to luxuriate in. <\/p>\n
Renee Rapp – “Leave Me Alone”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
A spiky, nonchalant throwback to 2000s radio pop-rock done with the perfect amount of affected boredom. <\/p>\n
Smerz – “Big City Life”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
The opening track from Smerz\u2019s fantastic new album is sexy and ominous and frenetic with all the promise of the city at night.<\/p>\n
A.K. Paul – “Watchin’ U”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Sublime, seductive R&B-funk from the other Paul brother, who shows off a canny sense of tension and relief. <\/p>\n
YoungBoy Never Broke Again – “Top Tingz”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
The prolific Baton Rouge rapper returns with a reggae-inflected heater. <\/p>\n
Cola Boyy – “Blame the Beret”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Puckish, clever synth-pop from the fabulous final album by Oxnard, CA\u2019s Cola Boyy, aka Matthew Urango. <\/p>\n
Hotline\u00a0TNT – “Break Right”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
I love this song! It rocks in a kind of subliminal way \u2014 it feels like a barnstormer even though it moves at a fairly even keel.<\/p>\n
Double Virgo – “bemused”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Does this kinda sound like The Wombats? Perhaps, but it\u2019s also appealingly ramshackle and rambunctious. <\/p>\n
Burn Boy, Travis Scott – “TaTaTa”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Crunchy baile funk from two titans of pop and rap music. <\/p>\n
Kokoroko – “Closer To Me”<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
London funk band Kokoroko are deep in the pocket on this sublime, low-key new cut.<\/p>\n
