Each week The FADER staff rounds up the songs we can't stop playing. Here they are, in no particular order.
Lana Del Rey, "Mariners Apartment Complex" - 10 songs you need in your life this week
Queen Lana returns with "Mariners Apartment Complex," a strummy guitar and piano ballad with just the right amount of Lana-style wistfulness.
Noname ft. Phoelix, "Window"
This simplest way I can describe this aching, beautiful song, is that it's like the first time you open an old music box — precious, and wonder-filled.
Mariah Carey, "GTFO"
The entire vibe of Mariah Carey's new single is the passive aggressive smiley face emoji next to the knife emoji — I love it.
Kero Kero Bonito, "Make Believe"
The gag is Kero Kero Bonito is singing about sleeping and dreaming, but their latest song is a syringe full of sugar straight into the bloodstream.
Masego, "I Had A Vision"
Maybe, for this jazz-trap Masego cut, roll a big one, find your way up to a roof, and hit play. Saxophone is good for stargazing.
girl in red, "girls"
This sweet song about girls loving girls by Norwegian pop songmaker girl in red came out a while ago, but the EP just dropped, which reminded me: the bridge still makes my heart flutter.
