18 May: “Take a Bite” – beabadoobee: Giving Into Temptation All Over Again

Beabadoobee can’t help but “Take a Bite” in her newest single – a track about giving in again, and again… even though you know it’s bad for you. Bea takes some accountability, admitting that she’s living in fantasyland but is finding it too comfortable to leave. It’s hard to take off the rose-tinted glasses, and even more difficult when you love how they look.

17 May: “Atavista” – Childish Gambino: Sticking To What He Knows… But We’re Not Mad About It

Childish Gambino surprises us with Atavista, a polished re-release of his 2020 album 3.15.20. Gambino originally released the unfinished record during the Covid-19 pandemic as a rushed love letter to his apocalypse anxiety and to his fans. Needing a master and a mix, Gambino resurfaced the entire album and dropped it alongside a list of tour dates. Atavista is an intimate album that somehow maintains oodles of mystique and disconnectivity. The words to the songs are new, but the album’s sound isn’t anything that we haven’t heard from Gambino before.

Imperfections, like his cracked voice and slightly out-of-tune guitar, enhance the potency of his performance. Amidst the backdrop of moody lighting, the haunting melody of a soprano saxophone adds to the surreal, ethereal ambiance. Fans cite this as their favorite rendition of the song, by far.
