10 best songs and clips of the week

The choice of "jellyfish": Kendrick Lamar about violence, a guf of youth, scripts is not clear about what

Every week, Medusa employees listen to new songs and watch new clips to select the best from them - and explain what they are notable for. This time - the scriptette recalls the poor past, MGMT is looking forward to the grave future, the Komsomolsk group describes life as in the song of Valery Meladze, and the Guf promises everyone to show where the crayfish winter. ( Attention! In the song of the Guf there is a mat. Perhaps it is also present in the song of scriptonitis, but we are not sure.)

Skriptonite "Innature"

The most irresponsible Russian -speaking rapper almost for the first time kept his promise: he really released another album until the New Year - and double. If the “holiday on the street 36” was entirely about sex and parties, then “Uroboros” is almost social: here they read a lot about poverty, restlessness and survival. It is almost impossible to understand what exactly the scriptitis in this song is in this song after the first minute - but there is so much tension in music, tear and psychedelic jazz viscosity that specific words are not so important.

Nerd "Donʼt do it (feat. Kendrick Lamar)"

Rihanna, Ed Shiran, Maya, Andre 3000 from Outkast-at the Nerd group, from which the career of Farrell Williams once began, everything is fine with eminent guests on the new album. Kendrick Lamar appears already twice; Our beloved song is perhaps this gutta -perch thing with a mandatory recitative about police violence (and even with the mention of Hitler).

Mgmt "When You Die"

The authors of the most common indie gyms of the last decade (KIDS and Time to Pretend), it seems, finally stopped going crazy and returned to the tragicomic pop-mesh, which they best succeed. The prize for the most cute song use of the phrase “Go Fuck Yourself” this year. The clip is also outstanding.

Lily Allen "Trigger Bang (Feat. Giggs)"

The last couple of years, the most charming English singer of the 2000s has been engaged in the main politics and supported British socialists in social networks-but now finally returned to music. At the same time, a flirty and evil song about love in the traditions of the best compositions of Allen - besides with the support of one of the most talented rappers of London.

GUF "Mowgli II"

“By the way, my name is Lesha / and if Che, I bang”: the Guf loudly and menacingly returns to hip-hop-to-game, convincingly distributing the slap in the youth from the so-called “new school” and the battles-rappers. It is worth paying attention to the new song of his ex -wife Aza with lines like “they have no panche in the tracks, like Bosena’s brain” and the rhyme “Gypsy -Erdogan”: so family make -ups give rise to vigorous art.

LSP "Little Prince"

One of the most dramatic plots of this year: in the spring of the Belarusian rapper Oleg LSP released his best (and one of the best this year) album "Tragic City"; In the summer, the novel “The Englishman” of Sascheko died, composing all the music for his songs; After that, the LSP project entered the peak of popularity. The frantically sad shell “Little Prince”, partially produced by the star of the Russian electronics Pixelord, seems to be partly about all this strange story.

Komsomolsk "Meladze"

“We are still alive, but hardcore is no longer”: an exemplary post -Soviet independent estrous in the performance of a Moscow duet. A touching, painful and wise song about the routine of urban being.

"Bambinton" "created by stars"

The next-and again excellent-young nominees of Ukrainian pop music, who threaten to enslave the Russian pop music (vocalist is a graduate of the Kruzheva association, which also gave us “mushrooms” and the moon). In the same genre last week, the video blogger and lover of rapper Fais Maryana Ro, and the sound is clear and the text is a clear and the text ridiculous, spoke surprisingly briskly.

"Monti Mechanic" "Megatron"

In 2014, the Chelyabinsk bard Georgy Mishnev (it is the Monti Mechanic group) released the most beautiful album “Interference in thin films”, which was unreasonably recognized as “Poster” by the best Russian record of the year. The new Monti Mechanics album “good robot” is slightly rude in sound, but it preserves the same amazing combination of infantilism with delicate hopelessness.

Charlie XCH "Tears (Feat. Caroline Polachek)"

During this year, the British Charlie KhSH, the co-author of several pop-bestsellers of recent years (for example, “Fancy” by IGGI Azalia and his own “Boom CLAP”), issued two mensties at once, in which, in turn, almost all the main faces of pop music of the 2010s were participated. The second was released on December 15; The best thing there is a dreamy and twitching duet with Caroline Polachek from the Chairlift group.
