“Warm Blood” is the fifth track to be released from Carley Rae Jepsen’s upcoming album E•MO•TION (out August 21st) and it’s easily the best.

We like Meek Mill, but he had days to come up with a decent Drake diss track in response to Drake’s two tracks dissing him and this was the best he could come up with? It’s just terrible. A trainwreck. He’s capable of so much better. This just doesn’t flow well. Also, the vocals are…

It’s Of Monsters and Men, so of course it’s amazing.

If you’ve read my review, you know I’m a big fan of Miguel’s brilliant new album Wildheart. So, it should come as no surprise that his latest single/video, “NWA” featuring Kurupt, is today’s #songoftheday. It’s a downtempo, subtle sort of R&B song — with a cool, unflinching presence — that’s perfect for chilling out or…
