Nights Like This (ft. Ty Dolla $ign)Kehlani
Released in 2019, “Nights Like This” is a collaboration between singer-songwriter Kehlani and rapper-singer Ty Dolla $ign.
The futuristic synthesizer sounds blend with their vocals to create a truly dreamy atmosphere.
By the way, Kehlani announced her pregnancy in October 2018.
Broken & BeautifulKelly Clarkson
Kelly Clarkson, whose powerful messages resonate across generations.
Released in April 2019, this track is early dance music with a strong tropical house influence.
It’s a grand ballad that fully showcases her signature vocal prowess.
While firmly grounded in her strengths, it’s also a pop ballad that fits perfectly with the current era!
Alguna vezKetama
Ketama, the legendary band that changed the history of flamenco.
Though they are now celebrated as a legendary group, their career—hailing from Spain—was far from smooth.
At the time, Spain strongly upheld the idea that flamenco should remain traditional, so their progressive approach to the genre wasn’t initially accepted.
Gradually, however, they gained recognition, and their style came to be acknowledged as a new genre: Nuevo Flamenco.
Their track “Alguna vez” showcases this musical identity, resulting in a sexy, cool sound.
Not OkKygo, Chelsea Cutler
The father of tropical house, Kygo, has released a beautiful, 2019-style mid-tempo tune that opens with a lead guitar tone! Released in May 2019.
In the chorus, you can hear the classic piano riff along with tropical sounds! Is this exactly the kind of progression fans have been eagerly waiting for? One thing’s for sure—you can’t help but get into the groove!
Lost On YouLP
LP is an artist with a captivating husky voice and strong expressive power.
With a boyish look, a cool presence, and the fact that she’s a lesbian, she’s extremely popular among women.
She’s also very active as a songwriter, having provided songs for big names like the Backstreet Boys and Christina Aguilera.
Her song “Lost On You” is a classic that became a huge hit in Italy and France.
How should I put it—it’s a super cool track that just screams “ikemen!!” (handsome/cool) [lol].
Need You NowLady Antebellum
A cool, soothing song I recommend is “Need You Now” by Lady Antebellum.
Even if you think, “How great would it be if a drugstore sold medicine to cure sadness and a broken heart!” there’s no such magic potion anywhere.
In times like that, try listening to this song.
Her singing gently tends to the wounds of the heart and helps them heal.
To ZionLauryn Hill
Lauryn Hill, who began her path to stardom with Sister Act 2, is known as a leading figure in neo-soul and female rap.
Her greatest appeal, above all, is her uncompromising stance and incredibly cool musical style.
Many American artists prioritize recognition and commercial success and end up bending their musical identity, but she has stayed true to herself without changing her style at all.
Her song To Zion is themed around her son.
At the time, people around her told her to avoid having a child for the sake of her career, but she ignored the pressure and became a mother.
The song expresses her resolve as a mother.
