Hello friends, good vibes to all.
Rediscovering new music is one of the things I enjoy the most, always being aware of what can come out and listen to these songs I think is one of the things I can enjoy the most. In my case are Fridays because they are the days when Spotify releases the news of the week that comes being the premieres so yes, religiously on this day we are listening to what's new in the music scene. Today what will predominate in this small list are collaborations or featuring that the truth is pretty good. Let's see what's new to listen to.
- Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars - Die With A Smile
I think that this is one of the meetings that people wanted without knowing it, two of the best voices in music in the last 15 years or so. I've said it before but for me Bruno Mars is one of the most complete artists there is today, comparing is never fair but I've always seen him with the aura of Prince or even Michael Jackson, keeping the distances. And what to say about Lady Gaga who has been a reference for years releasing albums one better than the other; we are facing a golden combination. This song is a ballad set in the 50's? with typical sounds of the time but also current things, it's something rare but it sounds spectacular. The way in which the two voices complement each other is incredible, Bruno sings very high and Lady Gaga can travel in her tones which makes it sound great. The lyrics talk about the deep and true love that one person feels for another to the point of wanting to die with her with a smile. It's a beautiful song, fresh and with vocals that go beyond the top.
- LISA feat. Rosalía - New Woman
There are many people who do not dimension the power of reach and quality that there is within K-pop and although Lisa is one of the ones on top of the iceberg it is a sample of the versatility of these artists. I am not a fan of this movement or genre but I recognize that everything that surrounds it is of the highest quality. If we add to this the incorporation of Rosalía, perhaps one of the most important Hispanic artists of recent years, the result ends up being this song. I think this song is out of the mold of what both artists really are because we are in front of a hip-hop and rap, something that I would think is not very common in them. But it's what I said before, how versatile they can be allows these things to happen. The lyrics as such talk about being a new woman, overcoming things, creating your own path, etc. But the really good thing is the video, very visual and well done, the production is pretty top notch. And I also liked that Rosalía sings in Spanish, that cultural mix adds a lot. This kind of unexpected collaborations are celebrated, it tells us that music has no borders.
- Clean Bandit, Anne-Marie, David Guetta – Cry Baby
It's not the first time these people work together, Anne-Marie and David Guetta have done it before. Although the song is by Clean Bandit the influence of Guetta is notorious, it is impressive how he uses EDM and Dance to turn it into something a little more pop. This song is just that, a combination of sounds that could perfectly play at an electronic party or a birthday party as background music. I met Clean many years ago for the song “Symphony” which is very similar to this one in terms of beat and style and is that she manages in the waters of Guetta, hence this featuring is like a ring to the finger. They don't even skimp on the videos since usually this kind of songs have a basic edit with the lyrics, here we see a minimum of production which is appreciated because it gives another touch to the song. The lyrics tell us about an infidelity and that when it is discovered, the only thing left for this man to do is to cry. There is something that catches my attention and is the frequency with which David Guetta is releasing songs, I think that at least a couple a month can be known. I don't know if this is good or bad, but the more music the better.
