2 James Hype and Miggy Dela Rosa - Ferrari

3 Devin Cole - W.I.T.C.H.

Devin Cole's breakout single sets to reclaim “the witch as a symbol of women’s resistance.” The feminist hooky tune, “celebrates women’s strength, autonomy, and rebellion – traits that contradict the patriarchal idea of what a woman should be and how she should behave.”

4 benny blanco feat. BTS and Snoop Dogg - Bad Decisions

“Like bad meaning good,” as Snoop explains in his verse. “Bad Decisions” boasts a bouncy and blissful, flirty dance vibe. As the lyrics declare a yearning to be with the one they desire “all of the time.”

5 charlieonnafriday - Enough

On his latest single “Enough,” Charlie merges his defiant flow with influences of pop crafting a melodic, low-key banger about ending a relationship that no longer serves him.

6 Beyoncé and Madonna - BREAK MY SOUL (THE QUEENS REMIX)

The remix to Beyoncé’s club-ready single, which already seamlessly sampled Robin S.’ “Show Me Love” and “Explode" by Big Freedia, now also interpolates Madonna’s 1990 hit “Vogue.” Plus a list of rightfully deserved shout outs, only making the original track that much better.

7 Calvin Harris feat. Charlie Puth and Shenseea - Obsessed

Calvin’s current disco-influenced 70s SoCal vibes combined with Charlie Puth’s rooted heartfelt vocals and Shenseea’s powerhouse verses, make “Obsessed” the ultimate infatuation banger.
