@_MARIAHWASA

Hwasa of K-pop girl group Mamamoo debuts her first solo LP โ€œMariaโ€. The South Korean singer has recently collaborated with Dua Lipa and Harry Styles. This song is on constant repeat, I find myself wanting to push the chair back and break out into dance routine.

 

@GAIDAAONTHEWEBS

Sudanese singer-songwriter Gaidaaโ€™s debut EP Overture has smooth hits from start to finish. Based and raised in the Netherlands, Gaidaa is equipped with soulful demeanor, one that is reminiscent of Sade. โ€œA Storm on a Summers Dayโ€ is a relaxing jam for lazy days on the patio during quarantine.

@ALMONDMILKHUNNI

Philadelphia singer Almondmilkhunni is giving us a hot girl summer whether weโ€™re in quarantine or not. With the new single โ€œdamnboyโ€ in its hustle and flow mood, itโ€™s a dreamy wish-fullfillment song that perfectly represents the 23-year-old singerโ€™s sense of girlboss freedom.

@TIERRAWHACK

This song is constantly on my playlist, still as good as the day it dropped. Another Philadelphia native, Tierra Whack approaches music as a playful invention and her music videos match up to that notion. The Grammy-nominated singer and inventor of the one-minute song, Tierra Whack is a girl out to refresh the style of hip-hop.

P.S. She also had a cameo in Beyonceโ€™s Black is King (available on Disney +)

 

@SIRCHLOE

Sir Chloe, the indie rock band hailing form Vermont releases a late summer single โ€œJulyโ€, a reflection of a summer relationship gone wry. Female vocals Dana Foote offers a smoky downtown lounge vibe in โ€œJulyโ€ with very much an east coast storytelling to it.
