Avelino (feat. Not3s)
Boasy (More Music/Odd Child)
This new jam finds Avelino musing on his journey so far, and it’s clear the bling doesn’t matter to an MC whose bars ooze familiar honesty. Not3s adds ample summery swing.

Charli XCX
Focus (Asylum)
Charli XCX keeps her promise of more new music: this minimal, clubby offering is joined by the slower, poppier, No Angel. She’s on fire.

Living In The Future (HUB)
Taken from the South Carolina quartet’s sixth album, this is rock as heard from the top of a skyscraper – huge, epic, endless.
