Another week, another set of epic new songs that you need in your life. This week we saw the return of Kendrick Lamar, Mary J Blige and there was also something wonderful from Breach.
(Warning: some of these songs contain strong language that some people may find offensive.)
Kendrick Lamar - 'I':
This week saw Kendrick Lamar release his highly anticipated new single, his first since 2012. Sampling the Isley Brothers' classic 'That Lady', the track Kendrick rap about loving himself first. A release date for Kendirck's next album is yet to be announced, but he recently revealed that there will be few features on it.
Breach Feat. Kelis - 'The Key':
Following on from Breach's remix of Kelis' 'Rumble' earlier in the year, the two have teamed up in the studio together to put out a new spin on the song retitling it as 'The Key.' Bristol DJ/ producer Breach aka Ben Westbeech pumps new life into the track as he speeds up Kelis' smooth r&b vocals to make a huge, bouncy dance cut.
Mary J Blige - 'Whole Damn Year'
Mary J Blige has revealed the full tracklisting for her forthcoming London-inspired album 'The London Sessions.' The album features the Disclosure-produced 'Right Now' and newly unveiled song 'Whole Damn Year', co-written by Sam Smith.
Le Youth - 'Girl'
Le Youth is keeping the summer going strong with his latest single 'girl'. The 'Feel Your Love' follow-up follows Le Youth's usual pattern of taking an old-school r&b cut and putting a dance spin on it, this time round sampling r&b trio Guy's 1988 hit 'I Like.'
Jessie Ware - 'Say You Love Me (Gorgon City Remix)':
Gorgon City have got their hands on the latest cut from Jessie Ware's upcoming second studio album 'Tough Love.' The North-London producers have put their own spin on 'Say You Love Me', speeding things up to make it dance-floor ready.
