Here are our daily picks for you featuring Delilah Bon, Skellytn and WIINSTON!
1. “Windows Up” – Molly Santana
First up on today’s list is “Windows Up” by 21-year-old rapper and musician Molly Santana. Although the single was released Aug. 16, 2024, it is part of her recently released EP, Masonic Musik. Each of the six tracks feature experimental EDM beats and dominating synths that showcase Santana’s hypnotic voice. With an energy that cannot be contained, “Windows Up” has amassed over 1.8 million Spotify streams.
2. “I Am The Best (Just Ask Your Momma)” – Delilah Bon
Funky with a bit of hip hop edge, “I Am The Best (Just Ask Your Momma)” by Delilah Bon shines a light on how ironic all the negative feedback she receives can be. If people choose to post something hateful about her music, they are essentially still promoting her name as an artist. The snappy chorus and “brat punk”-esque themes make this track a fierce confidence-booster.
“This is a song I wrote about my online haters commenting and sharing my videos on social media, their engagement pushing them even more in the algorithm,” Delilah Bon explains. “It’s about how certain men online perceive me, how they despise everything I stand for, lyrically addressing their obsession and pointing out that their Momma’s would probably love what I do. It’s a middle finger to all those that have demonised me online, the soundtrack of my villain era.”
3. “Keys To The Rave (feat. Coppa)” – Skellytn
Next on today’s list is “Keys To The Rave (feat. Coppa)” by Skellytn, a technical conglomeration of high-energy synths and intense reverb that’s sure to have listeners speeding down the highway with their windows down. The partnership between both electronic powerhouses takes the best of both worlds, with gritty lyrics layering atop drum & bass instrumentals. “I had the opportunity to collaborate with Coppa, blending the raw energy of LA’s underground DnB sound with iconic UK MC vocals to elevate this track to anthem status,” says Skellytn.
4. “blue” – WIINSTON
WIINSTON‘s newest single, “blue,” fuses cool R&B and electro-pop rhythms together to create a resonating, memorable track. The song begins with WIINSTON’s raw vocals, showcasing the depths of his range and the sheer emotion behind each word. “There’s a fine line between mainstream and anti-commercial. We always find ourselves standing on that line,” says singer Daniel Richards. “And that’s how ‘blue’ came about with a tongue-in-cheek hook that’s both sarcastic and overmuch yet with an alluring and sophisticated sound to it.” The band also announced their newest project, an EP entitled “SKITZO” that centers around tracks that will come with both an “A” and “B” side, with both sides sounding musically similar and yet interpretationally different.
5. “LOOKIN FOR U” – WINK, nikko
Closing out today’s selection is “LOOKIN FOR U,” a dynamic collab between WINK and nikko that features layers of delayed vocals, unique synthesizers and heavy bass. The track is part of their newest 5-track release, “SEEING DOUBLE EP,” which combines the solo talents of both dance floor-savvy artists to create whole new dimensions. Characterized with bits of trap, bass house, hard dance, jersey club, dubstep and more, the EP marks the beginning of an exciting new era.
