After hearing this beautifully melodic, well-written song, I couldn't get it out of my head. A perfect pop depiction of a “give and take” relationship.

I’ve spent a lot of time on the Mac Miller Baloonerism album in 2025. This track makes me nostalgic for the hip hop from the 90s. There’s a great animated short on Prime that’s worth checking out.

There was so much hype around Geese but friends insisted I give the new album a listen. Every track was fantastic but "Cobra" was the one that made me smile and sway.
Bonus Pick: "Tennis" by Lily Allen. There was a lot of press around Lily Allen's 'divorce-inspired' album but there is no denying that the track "Tennis" is pop storytelling perfection.

Just a fresh great vibe. Some familiar elements but it felt new. Maybe Guerillaz are close, maybe a tiny influence of Jesus Jones or TV on the Radio. Plus any use of a lyric "Elon's a f'in weirdo" gets points. And the references to Game of Thrones and Toupée’d totalitarians. Good stuff.
Bonus Pick: "Pillow Talk" by Wet Leg
