This week’s ‘should-be’ hits features new music from Jacob Collier, Guy Sebastian and Sam Fischer, Real Estate, Ari Abdul, Nemzz and more
The month of February ends with a few big new releases. After a successful night (albeit less than she deserved) at the Grammys, SZA returns with “Saturn.” The track is familiar territory for the artist, dreamy and full of emotions. Perhaps content with her current era, the single comfortably fits into her “SOS” world.
Thankfully Selena Gomez advances a bit sonically this time around with her latest “Love On.” After the minor misstep that was last year’s “Single Soon,” the single provides an edgier production for Gomez’s always on-point delivery. The track will likely catapult the singer back to the top and here’s hoping she continues to build on this single’s likely momentum.
Other new releases include the next track release from Justin Timberlake’s forthcoming LP. “Drown” doesn’t seem to really offer anything new, but at least it’s more like what we expect from Timberlake. Ditto for Central Cee – “I Will” will likely blast up the charts but in a short span, the rapper is becoming a bit too predictable.
While all these singles will impact the charts, let’s have a look at this week’s #HITSOFTOMORROW, the SHOULD-BE hits of the week.
