It has only been in summer for less than a week at the press time, but some psychologists on my timeline were starting the summer dialogue song by the end of April. (Looking at you, Less important.) To be fair, from this point we are usually very close to a consensus pick and now, the lane is still dangerous. The greatest season is not a score, this year there is no theme music. But there are some contenders to start giving strength to roof work, cookouts and day parties. Let’s assess where we stand.
Note: This column is my dominance, where my taste and preference ruled over the impartiality … so I don’t care about artists and songs, it will not be represented. Thank you -Planning.
Drake, “Nokia”
The original, easy, safe and early picks because beef is, despite LS, Drake Drake and we all love Drake with tunes. But maybe he has taken his hand with this one very quickly. Initially released as a single track on its Valentine’s Day Collab album with partynextdoor And about a month later, looking at the official solo treatment with music videos, “Nokia” can already be out of gas at this point. People are still excluding it, but it hardly seems exciting now. Drake itself appears that he is already proceeding to move the hyp to the ramp for his next album, already, MountainousTo disseminate the word like loyal podcasters and your crew of streamers to tease vague “a bomb.” (It will be a downgrade in the weapon ranking “Nuke” That “family matters” were promised, but I dig.) Can “Nokia” remain a course or Drake will eat your own tail with more new music?
Sabarina Carpenter, “Manchild”
