New Music Fridays, March 16th, 2018


Hello and welcome once again to New Music Fridays, even though it's Monday, lol.  I bookmarked a lot of songs this week, and it was hard to cram it down to just five, but here goes...

Everybody Hates Me - The Chainsmokers

Okay, well any new Chainsmokers' tune will almost always get attention from me.  They've been that high on my list as long as they've been around.  This time, though, I'm not a huge fan.  The boys newest track picks up on the same theme as their last two singles, Sick Boy and You Owe Me...no romantic happiness, no sweetness, just some more self-deprecating whining.  The only bright spot is that this one does carry a twinge of EDM.  Check it out and see...


Freaky Friday - Lil Dicky, Chris Brown

I have to admit that I never heard of Lil Dicky before.  Apparently he's a 30 year old comedian/rapper and he just put out his first song in over three years with R&B bad boy Chris Brown...and I love it!  The song takes its' name from the famous movie and the vid for the tune shows the two artists switching spots.  Pretty good!  Oh, and check out some of the cameos, too!  Check out Freaky Friday...


Done For Me - Charlie Puth, Kehlani

Charlie Puth follows up his highly successful, and funky, How Long with a nice collaboration featuring the likes of Oakland-based songstress Kehlani.  This one's as funky as the former, and it's full of pop smoothness, as well.  Check out Done For Me...


Answerphone - Banx & Ranx, Ella Eyre, Yxng Bane

Though there are some big names in this week's new music tracks, they aren't necessarily the best of the best.  Banx & Ranx's newest is nothing but a hip shakin' slice of pure dance pleasure.  Check out Answerphone...


Remind Me to Forget - Kygo, Miguel

Oh, two of my favorite artists together on one track!  R&B singer Miguel's voice lends itself wonderfully to Kygo's beats.  Awesome!


All in all, this was a really nice week in new music, not only the ones featured here, but for these honorable mentions, as well:

Alone - Halsey, Big Sean
Let It Be - Hayley Kyoko
Over You - Kasbo, Frida Sundemo
Alien - Sabrina Carpenter, Jonas Blue
Be Like You - Whethan, Broods
Over My Head - Echosmith
Strawberries & Cigarettes - Troye Sivan
