LX Mason, ‘I Don’t’ | Track Review

LX Mason dazzles on his debut single, “I Don’t,” a song that eschews being “oppressed by other’s opinions” or by “personal anxieties and fears.”

Blood Orange (Dev Hynes), shines bright on “Jewelry,” the second advance single from his highly-anticipated fourth studio album, ‘Negro Swan.’

Indonesian singer AGNEZ MO taps Grammy-winning American R&B singer Chris Brown for a truly enjoyable, sexy duet, “Overdose.”

Tyga, celebrating a return to pop relevancy, drops a sexed-up, skeletal, ‘strip club anthem’, “SWISH.” “SWISH” samples the David Banner hit, “Play.”

Swedish pop singer/songwriter Benjamin Ingrosso shines on “I Wouldn’t Know,” where he’s totally fed up with a ‘one-sided relationship.’

Pop singer Elley Duhé shows on enjoyable single “WAY DOWN LOW” that she’s willing to do whatever to conquer love, even in the worst of times.

Alternative duo The Blancos – Cory Hueston and Jayson Robbins – tap rapper Joyner Lucas on their second major-label single, “We’re Tired.”

Blood Orange (Dev Hynes), makes a compelling return with “Charcoal Baby,” an advance single from his fourth studio album, ‘Negro Swan.’

Smokepurpp continues to be light on substance on his latest single, “Nephew.” Nonetheless, he and featured guest Lil Pump provide some replay value.

LA-based hip-hop collective BROCKHAMPTON follows up “1999 WILDFIRE” and “1998 TRUMAN,” with their third single of 2018, “1997 DIANA.”

Grammy-winning dance/pop production duo The Chainsmokers return with a new single, “Side Effects,” featuring frequent collaborator, Emily Warren.

Veteran R&B artist Faith Evans enlists new hubby and singer Stevie J on her romantic new single, “A Minute.” It’s imperfect, but respectable.
