ScienZe x Blvck Spvde – Sparkle for Me (Submission)
Brooklyn rapper, ScienZe, collaborates with Blvck Spvde to give us a smooth track, ‘Sparkle for Me’. ScienZe raps, about an experience with a beautiful woman who catches his interest. Though he was able to find “a home”, and have strong vibes with her, he doesn’t feel as if a romantic relationship with her is what he wants, rather he wants to be a friend. The hook carries that sentiment along, asking “is this coming to an end, or will be best friends?” This is definitely a relatable track, sometimes the best thing to do with someone you find comfort in is to be just friends.

DJ Khaled – No Brainer featuring Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper & Quavo
The gang’s back for “another one!” DJ Khaled and Asahd gets Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper and Quavo, together again after the success of last years ‘I’m the One’. With a similar feel to ‘I’m the One’, ‘No Brainer’ comes off just a simple remake, or a lazy attempt to recreate the success of the former, and a desperate ploy to get the song of the Summer. However, if something isn’t broke, why fix it? The song carries a fun tone, a catchy hook, and with the star lineup, there is no way Khaled could commercially miss with this one! If willing to look past the redundancy, it’s still a good song and deserves fair a listen! Check out the first single of Khaled forthcoming album, ‘Father of Asahd’.
