Music Week Playlist: August 17, 2020

Greentea Peng leads the playlist this week featuring Beabadoobee, D-Block Europe and more.

Greentea Peng
Hu Man (AMF/EMI)
Greentea Peng’s lyrics are candid, yet an enthralling fug of ambiguity persists around the South Londoner. Each new offering brings more to dig into, and this one, flavoured with bossa nova, is white hot.

We Won (D-Block Europe)

Lotto Boyzz (Feat. Kamille)
Miss Jagger (Pitched Up/Sony Music)
