don’t call me prettyGAYLE
GAYLE, the female singer-songwriter who gained worldwide popularity with “abcdefu.” Many of you may have discovered her music through TikTok.
Her new song is “don’t call me pretty.” Like “abcdefu,” it features a compelling structure with raw, honest lyrics and emotional power pop.
There’s a lot that middle school teens can relate to, so be sure to check out the Japanese translation as well.
Rain On MeLady Gaga, Ariana Grande
The smash hit “Rain On Me” by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande.
Released in June 2020, this song takes rain as its theme yet delivers a very bright, uplifting composition that became a worldwide success.
The collaboration between Lady Gaga, a diva who enjoyed global popularity from 2008 to 2012, and Ariana Grande, the reigning pop diva of today, generated buzz from the start and may well have been a major factor in its success.
I Don’t CareEd Sheeran & Justin Bieber
An easygoing track that lifts your spirits right up to the surface, “I Don’t Care.” Despite being a big-name collaboration, the ridiculously slapdash CG and quirky vibe are absolutely perfect.
The laid-back feel of the song is so pleasant that taking a walk or commuting while listening to it will surely feel better than usual!
High RoadKe$ha
When it comes to Kesha’s high-energy numbers, this has to be the one! High Road has an incredible sense of exhilaration—the slightly rough-and-tumble lyrics and the go-for-it beat are both absolutely “high.” Even if you’re usually demure or well-behaved, why not cut loose like this track? As expected, Kesha’s appeal is anything but straightforward!
XJonas Brothers ft. Karol G
This is a very cheerful number with samba rhythms and Latin melodies.
Since their comeback in 2019, they’ve mainly been releasing pop songs close to rock, but this one is straight-up dance pop.
Released on May 14, 2020, it totally captures the summer vibe in advance! With the ongoing impact of COVID-19 keeping people from going out, and as we head into the rainy season, it feels like this track is meant to blow away that heavy mood.
It’s almost as if that message comes through in the work itself.
It features reggaeton singer Karol G.
God Is A DancerTiësto, Mabel
A track where rhythmic percussion blends perfectly with Mabel’s mesmerizing, sultry vocals.
The floor-ready beat heightens the atmosphere.
This song is ‘God Is A Dancer,’ a collaboration between Dutch DJ Tiësto and British singer Mabel.
Here We Go AgainOliver Tree & David Guetta
Global music producer Oliver Tree—there’s hardly a day you don’t hear his tracks on TikTok or Instagram.
His collaboration with fellow producer David Guetta is this track, “Here We Go Again.” While Oliver Tree has previously leaned heavily into EDM, this song puts house front and center.
Highly recommended for fans of fresh, stylish dance music.
