The Queer, Pro-Palestine, Fiddle-Playing Rapper You Didn’t Know You Needed

Five Songs is a weekly series for paid Hearing Things subscribers in which we each choose a new 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 supernatural pop set to a violin-heavy beat, mind-bending grooves for the Berklee College of Music graduate in your life, smooth spy raps worthy of James Bond, Southern-diva fight music that references Family Guy, and a sweet Dijon ballad that happens to have Justin Bieber on it. There’s also a Must Hear track—i.e., a song we really, really love—among the five picks. Enjoy!
