BLOW (with Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars)Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran – BLOW (with Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars) [Official Music Video]

Straight-down-the-middle, no-frills rock! “I never thought we’d hear this kind of sound from this lineup!”—that’s the sort of reaction you can imagine hearing from all sides with this track.

Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars have both been focused on dance music in recent years, so this feels refreshingly new.

And we can’t forget country heavyweight Chris Stapleton.

With him in the mix, the sound reaches a fully mature finish.

The music video, which doesn’t feature any of them, also leaves a good impression with its unpretentious vibe.

A perfect track for a drive.

You can’t help but get hyped by this song crafted by such a gifted artist.

The chorus melody will have you wanting to jump.

Major Lazer & DJ Snake – Lean On (feat. MØ) [Official 4K Music Video]

A track that fuses electronic and pop, featuring MØ’s soaring vocals and an impactful sound.

Released in July 2015, the song became a massive hit, selling over 13 million copies worldwide.

The music video was filmed in India and features Bollywood-style dance, adding to its appeal.

Centered on the complexities of human relationships and the importance of mutual support, it pairs an infectious groove with a deep message.

Highly recommended if you’re looking for an up-tempo song.

Lose YourselfEminem

Eminem – Lose Yourself [HD]

Eminem, who has been active as an American hip-hop artist since the late 1990s and is a name almost everyone knows.

In an era when the hip-hop scene was still dominated by Black artists, he achieved tremendous popularity as a white artist.

This song is one of his signature tracks, released as the theme song for the film 8 Mile, in which he also starred.

I imagine many people first became interested in American hip-hop because of this song.

His flow races freely over a track marked by its tight beat, and it feels incredibly good.

Before you know it, your body will be moving along with the music!
