Top 10 Singles for the Week of August 14, 2020:
1. “Hard On Yourself” – Charlie Puth & blackbear
Two artists we are so glad came together and crafted a sweet song that extends hope to people who are too hard on themselves.
2. “Rainbow Bap” – Jaden
The next installment of Jaden’s forthcoming album, CTV3: Cool Tape Vol. 3 has a chill beat and earnest lyrics that will be sure to get every listener stoked for the rest of the record.
3. “Dying Breed” – The Killers
Rock icons The Killers have dropped one of their most intriguing tracks to date. It’s long but interesting open leads into one of their most anthemic tracks yet.
4. “you!” – LANY
Everyone’s favorite pop band is back with the third single off their recently-announced album, mama’s boy. It’s a slow-burning track that offers everything we love in a LANY track: simple beats and heart-tugging lyrics.
5. “Midnight Sky” – Miley Cyrus
The return of Miley Cyrus has been highly-anticipated and this new track doesn’t disappoint. Complete with an 80’s pop vibe with the hint of Southern charm, this track is the perfect blend and reflection of the artist herself.
6. “Lemonade” – YUNGBLUD & Denzel Curry
The wacky track you’d expect with an unexpected rap influence that somehow ties perfectly with YUNGBLUD’s angsty punk vocal.
7. “Never (feat. Sofia Reyes)” – Awgust
The collaboration we didn’t know we needed. Oozing with honesty, this track show Awgust at his best with the addition of the sultry vocal from Sofia Reyes only taking it higher.
8. “Rooted (feat. Ester Dean)” – Ciara
This high-energy anthem will be sure to please. It talks to young girls and tells them to get used to owning what’s rightfully theirs.
9. “Handle Me” – Silver Sphere
A wispy vocal to draw you in from the get-go slowly moves to an infectious chorus that talks of taking the higher road if someone can’t “handle” you.
10. “Lose” – NIKI
This soulful ballad is a tear-jerker that showcases just what NIKI’s vocal can do. It will draw you in from the very beginning.
