You can hit it in the morning, in the evening - anytime you want, really.ģ4. Ariana Grande, Break Up With Your Boyfriend, I’m Bored : The seductive yet mildly creepy production fit the covetous obsession Grande sings about, but that only makes the song work more. Great Grandpa, Bloom : “I get anxious on the weekends, when I feel I’m wasting time / But then I think about Tom Petty, and how he wrote his best songs when he was 39.” It’s a perfect sentiment about doing your own thing on your own time - and that’s before the song takes a left turn midway through, taking a minute to luxuriate in the lovely orchestration that runs throughout their album Four of Arrows.ģ5. Kelsey Waldon, Anyhow : This John Prine protege nailed the dusty prairie-highway ramble of alt-country forebears like Lucinda Williams and Steve Earle, pledging to stare down and plow through any roadblock that gets in her way.ģ6. Thankfully Ex Hex read the room and delivered, riffs a-blazing.Ĥ6. Ex Hex, Another Dimension : The world was crying out for a modern indie-punk band to go full Heart/Benatar in 2019 it just didn’t know it yet. Cole’s summer Dreamville label mixtape pairs J.I.D., EarthGang, Buddy and Guapdad 4000 in one of the battiest, flexiest, most amphetamine-amped crime fantasies in a while.Ĥ7. Dreamville, Wells Fargo : This posse cut off J. FKA Twigs, Sad Day : FKA Twigs’ infatuation with choreography, particularly pole dancing, at times overshadows her ghostly music - but not this song, a soundscape in the vein of Kate Bush or Bjork that evolves from a trembling whisper to a noisy cataclysm and back again.Ĥ8. Lana Del Rey, The Greatest: “The culture is lit, and if this is it, I had a ball.” Well, that’s one way to toast the end of the decade, and possibly the world, as we know it - and in Del Rey’s wistful, weary vision of California, it might be the best way.Ĥ9.
