Each week The FADER staff rounds up the songs we can't stop playing. Here they are, in no particular order.
A$AP Rocky, Frank Ocean, "Purity"
A$AP Rocky, Frank Ocean and a Lauryn Hill sample merge to create "Purity." Featuring decelerated vocals and plucky guitar, it is vulnerable, soft, and easily the best track off Testing.
Pusha-T, Rick Ross, "Hard Piano"
Pusha-T recruited Rick Ross for "Hard Piano," a title that does right by the track's incessantly tough-sounding background melody.
A Boogie wit da Hoodie ft. Davido, "Way Too Fly"
Someone on YouTube wrote, "If I walk in a corner store I better hear this," referring to this new A Boogie wit da Hoodie and Davido track. I agree.
Downtown Boys, "Fotos Y Recuerdos"
Downtown Boys brought their scrappy punk energy to Selena's "Fotos Y Recuerdos," and the result is an energetic tribute to a classic.
Jennifer Castle, "Grim Reaper"
With its swells of violin and whispery vocals, Jennifer Castle's "Grim Reaper" adds up to a quiet and frank meditation on death.
Emotional Oranges, "Motion" - 10 songs you need in your life this week
Emotional Oranges summon sultry motel glam vibes in the video for their laid-back R&B cut, "Motion." Gaudy wallpaper and retro furnishings have never looked so enticing.
