The Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 28

This edition is a little supersized because it's been so long since I've made a playlist. Lot of artists that are new to me/I haven't posted about before (e.g. Megan Thee Stallion, Kim Petras, Lolo Zouaï), regular hitmakers (e.g. Ariana Grande, Sam Smith) artists who are back on the scene after a hiatus and/or music that didn't bop (e.g. Big Sean, French Montana, Iggy Azalea) and artists that are just making great, feel good music (e.g. Burna Boy, Spencer Ludwig, Sofi Tukker). 

As a reminder, the top 29 songs are new, the rest are from previous editions of the playlist. You can find the older playlists here. Take a listen and lmk your thoughts.

Calvin Harris - Feels (ft. Pharrell, Katy Perry & Big Sean) [Music Video]


The new Calvin Harris album is mental, monumental, incredible, sonic, phenomenal, it's summertime, poolside, beach vibes — it's everything. The fourth of July weekend was truly lit because of this and the Jay album. One of the recent official singles is "Feels", a Daft Punk vibing record that sees Pharrell back on his "Get Lucky" feel. Katy Perry and Big Sean are kinda along for the ride, but it's okay because the Pharrell/Calvin connection is like a Chris Paul/DeAndre Jordan alley oop (RIP Chris Paul/DeAndre Jordan alley oops). I mean, think about it — how awesome is a record when Katy Perry and Big Sean are a literal bonus?

Justin Bieber - Memphis ft. Diplo & Big Sean


The musical evolution of Justin Bieber continues. He released his Journals album just over a year ago and is gearing up for a new album in 2015. One of the standout cuts from Journals is "Memphis", Bieber's collab with Diplo + Big Sean, and I must say, it's pretty damn dope. What's crazy is that people have categorized Justin Bieber in such a way that they won't even acknowledge the great music that was on the Journals album solely because his name is Justin Bieber.

Meek Mill - B-Boy ft. Big Sean + A$AP Ferg [Music Video]

Meek Mill just let loose the visuals for "B-Boy" featuring Big Sean and A$AP Ferg, a new single off his upcoming perpetually pushed back album Dreams Are Worth More Than Money. Finally, a Meek Mill song that I like. And I do kinda fuck with this hard. 

Song of the Day: The Hood Internet - I Don't Fuck With Classics (Big Sean vs The Knocks) [Mashup]

For those who don't know, The Hood Internet are a Chicago-based DJ group who rose to prominence (at least as far as I know) making dope ass mashups. The mashups generally feature rap acapellas over indie-pop/dance music tracks, so all in all they flow really well and are reminiscent of MTV pop music when they first started throwing rappers on everything.

They're most recent track, which dropped a few days ago, is "I Don't Fuck With Classics", a mashup of Big Sean's "IDFWU" and The Knock's "Classics". Check it out below and download here. For more of their mashups, check out their website or their soundcloud page.
