May Favourites || Dance Like No One Is Watching

This month I have been listening to a lot of dance music thanks to the radio which was always on at work. Dance music is dominating the charts over here in the UK and there were three songs in particular that stuck out to me this month and will no doubt put you in that TGIF mood.

Where Are U Now - Skrillex and Diplo featuring Justin Bieber



All Cried Out - Blonde featuring Alex Newell



Freak Of The Week - Krept n Konan featuring Jeremih

April Favourites || Party Season

Last month I was a bit out of the loop with new music thanks to some of my favourite websites being shut down. But I have managed to discover some new favourites in trap music and grime so these three tracks are perfect for the upcoming party season.

Future - F*ck Up Some Commas


Although I barely understand a word of this song, you can't deny that it is a catchy tune and that you would hit the dance floor on a night out when this comes on.



Kano - New Banger


Grime music hasn't really captured me in the past couple of years but now that Kano has returned with a self-proclaimed banger.


Skepta - Shutdown

Another grime artist returning with a fun club track which you have probably heard being played on Radio 1 a lot recently.

March Favourites || A Slow Month

I don't know how you guys feels but I thought last month was a bit of slow one especially compared to all of the new release in February.
Having said that, I have still managed to find three songs that I was loving last month...

Wale featuring Kanye West - The Summer League



Wale dropped his album last month and although most of it didn't catch my attention this bonus track certainly did. This song is perfect for summer with the roof down in the car and the volume turned up full, it will make car journeys a lot more fun. The beat is so addictive and I can't wait till some club mixes come out for this track.

Kyndall - Still Down


I recently wrote a post about new artist Kyndall and her EP which dropped last month. I love all of the songs on it but this one in particular is always on repeat and is a great introduction to the songstress if you haven't heard any of her songs yet. It's a delicious r'n'b jam that I relate to a lot at the moment.

Jhene Aiko - Living Room Flow



I am one of the biggest Jhene Aiko fans and there isn't a song she has ever made that I don't enjoy. Her latest track is sensual and calming, perfect for those bedroom playlists, and has me hitting replay every time. In my eyes, she can do no wrong and this needs to have a video.

February Favourites || Hip Hop Hooray

With so much great new music last month, it was hard to pick just three of my favourites. But these are the songs that I have had on repeat for the last couple of weeks and will probably continue overplaying well into this month.

Blessings - Big Sean, Drake and Kanye



Bad Bitch - French Montana featuring Jeremih



Banjo - Tyga and Chris Brown

January Favourites || Music of the Month

Kanye West - Runaway

I rediscovered this Kanye classic this month and fell in love with it all over again - it may have even overtaken Flashing Lights as my favourite Kanye song. 
It is a swift reminder that only five years ago Kanye was truly a musical visionary and a revolutionary rapper that made songs with substance and edge without being overly-dramatic or annoying.



Elle Varner - Where Your Man Is

Elle Varner can go no wrong in my eyes and I adore every song she has ever released as a single and her latest track is no different. The attitude, lyrics and innovative production is seriously sassy and fun and sure to be a hit with a decent video alongside it.
This song has definitely got me excited for an Elle Varner album this year and I hope she sticks to this R'n'B with an edge style.



Fifth Harmony - Worth It

I have never been a fan of this American girl group because their past music has tended to lean towards the more mainstream pop sound. But I am quite impressed with their new album and this song in particular which features rapper Kid Ink.
It is undeniably catchy and would be really hot with a DJ Mustard remix although it is a pretty strong club banger as it is.
The trumpet on the chorus is reminiscent of Jason Derulo's and Ariana's Grande's smash hits from the past year so maybe they have found the perfect recipe for an R'n'B breakout track.
