Music for Smoothing Your Brain
Plus a twisty charismatic rapper, three head-empty club queens, and a band that jams (not a jam band)

Five Songs is a weekly series for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we each choose a new (or newly relevant!) song we like and write about why we can’t stop listening to it. These are tracks that speak to us in particular, and we have a good feeling they will speak to you, too.
This week we’ve got a “fuck work” anthem about millennial malaise, noise band royalty getting loose on their amps, a kooky big-room club anthem by the princess of smart-but-unserious, a bizarre love song by an incredibly prolific rapper, and a trio doing technicolor harmonies. Thanks for listening and have fun!
