Hot Tracks: 11/22/24

Happy Friday! It’s time for more new music! Here’s this week’s selection of new (or new to me) songs that I felt really stood out!

Note: Some songs and videos may contain content that listeners / viewers could find objectionable.


Kendrick Lamar surprise-dropped a new album today. The whole thing is worth listening to, but with it’s Debbie Deb sample this one stands out as a possible lead single.


Aminรฉ taps into the UK 2-step sound on his latest.


Did anyone expect Jelly Roll to have an Avicii-inspired country-dance track tied to the new Sonic the Hedgehog movie? I didn’t.


Franz Ferdinand still know how to craft a catchy tune.


Pop singer Johnny Orlando is back with another rock-tinged tune that’s hard to resist.


And here’s some more catchy, guitar-driven pop, this time from Ben Ellis.


TroyBoi with guest MC Harvey delivers some bass heavy rap that features a sample that sounds like it came from a Renaissance Faire and ends on an uptempo 2-step vibe.


An absolute anthem of a d&b track.


There’s something about chilly weather that really puts me in the mood for melodic trance.


Alternative electronica with an epic feel.


Interesting dance pop with the right amount of edge.


Absolutely beautiful lounge dance.


The pop boys are really bringing it this week.

Angelo Mota has his finger firmly on the future of hip hop.


Intriguing alt-tronica.


Modern alt-rock with heavy classic influences by Dan English.


As lovely as you would expect a new Sade song to be.


Le Flex’s 90’s r&b-influenced sound is perfect for a Christmas song.


An achingly lovely queer country ballad.


Taken from the soundtrack to Luca Guadagnino’s new filmย Queer, co-star Omar Apollo here sings a lovely latin-influenced ballad with production by the always impressive duo of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.


You’ve never heard Sylvester’s disco anthem like this emotionally powerful arrangement by Moses Sumney, Lyra Pramuk, and Sam Smith.
