10 best clips and songs of the week

Every week, Medusa talks about the most noticeable musical news. Due to the departure of Western musical labels from Russia, we stopped conducting playlists in streaming services. In this issue: Star Ukrainian director Tanya Muino shot a new video for Nadia Dorofeeva, King Krule apologized many times for what, and Travis Scott ended up in a police station on the eve of a new release.

Charli XCX and Lord "The Girl, So Confusing"

Having released the most powerful Brat album, Charlie did not stop and after a couple of weeks presented a new single - an improved version of the track “Girl, So confusing” . In the album version of Charlie, it hints that it would be nice to record Fit with the New Zealand star Lord, with which she was often confused in the mid-2010s: “Maybe we will once write down something together? The Internet will go crazy! " - says Charlie in the original version of the track.

Now the lord wrote his verse for “Girl, so confusing” - and sings with Charlie about how everything was confused in her life in recent years. But here it is again in the ranks, which means that the Internet will still go crazy.

Burial "Phoneglow"

William Bivven released a nine -minute composition “Phoneglow” - as always, with rustling, crackling, a sudden change in rhythm and samples. The composition came out with a double single - along with the track "Eyes Go Blank" , recorded with the pioneer of the Dabstep Kode9.

Dorofeeva "Hartbit"

“All your drama by sails / carry you in such trauma ,” says one of the main Ukrainian stars Nadia Dorofeev. This story is dislike - without a happy final: “T -shocus, and I am nalyakan” (“You are in love, and I am scared”). The video was shot by Tanya Muinho , who recently released the clips of Dua Lipa and Lenny Kravitsa . In the new work of the director, the director was not again without intricate choreography.

Fontaines DC "Favourite"

The new track Fontaines DC is not like their previous single “Starburster” (experimental by the standards of the group), nor on gloomy songs from the first albums.

The dreamy composition of Favourite is more likely in the spirit of The Smiths. The clip is assembled from archival videos, where the musicians are still quite children, as well as from the filming of the recent trip of the group to Madrid, where their guitarist Carlos Okconell grew. In the nostalgic track, Fontaines DC look at their childhood through the usual left optics: in the 1990s, the Irish working class, ignored by British politicians, experienced difficult times, resemble musicians.

Lola Young "You Notified"

A lover of attach a strong word, British Lola Young on the new album “This Wasn`t Meant for You Anyway” unexpectedly released several delicate ballads. “You Notaked”, whose lyrical heroine cannot let go of the departed love, is accompanied by an acoustic guitar, cello and smugus. “Intrusive Thoughs” is completely recorded under an acoustic guitar.

In 2021, the singer was nominated as one of the best debutants on Brit Award - at one time, the same prize was received by Adele, which Young is compared today. However, stylistically, these are completely different performers: Yang, obviously, was influenced by postpunk and electronics. So if we draw parallels between Young and its famous compatriots, it would be more precisely to recall Amy Winehaus, for which the topic of co -dependence was also one of the central ones.

Kamashi Washington, George Clinton and D Smoke "Get Lit"

The clipmaker Jenn Nkiru, who worked with Beyonca, shot a real short film - for the neojazer saxophonist Kamashi Washington. In the repita - his three -minute track "Get Lit". Nkiru has already turned to the racial topic in Beyonca's video Brown Skin Girl , now it unfolds Washington's comment for 13 minutes.

Ezra Collective and Lease's ulcer "God Gave Me Feet for Dancing"

Bright representatives of the London jazz scenes-Quintet Ezra Collective-The Guardian in 2018 included in the list of the main debutants of the year; Five years later, they have already received Mercury Prize (although there are different opinions about this event). To record a new composition, already in 2024, they invited the singer from Nottingham Lazin Leizi , who are also close to Jazz, Afrogit, Reggae and Soul. But the main stars of the premiere of “God gave me Feet for Dancing” is still a couple from the clip, dancing on the night streets of London.

King Pari "Better the Devil"

Minneapolis Funk Duet, consisting of Joe Paris Kristensen and Cameron Kinghorn, was inspired by their fellow countryman Prince . Having received local fame after the first tracks, the musicians signed a contract with the California label Stones Throw (among their recent releases - the joint album of Anderson Pak and KNXWLLEDGE). The new song and clip King Pari can be regarded as a commentary on this event - are artists ready to sign a contract with the devil to become popular?

King Krule "Time for Slurp"

It seems that the boat is floating somewhere, but passengers do not need anywhere. This is a clip for the absurd track “Time for Slurp”, in the text of which there is nothing but the apology of Archie Marshall for “bad communication”. The guilt erected to the Absolute is based on a post -pack - there are no jazz or electronics familiar to King Krule.

Mustard and Travis Scott "Parking Lot"

The American hitmaker Mustard and rapper Travis Scott spent differently on the eve of their joint track. The first made the sound for Diss Kendrick Lamar on Drake Not Like Us , after which he performed at his big concert in California. The second was in the prison of Miami for the brawl and illegal penetration of someone else's yacht; Having bail, he began to sell Merch with his photo from the police station.

The track “Parking Lot” is the same dual: under the restrained Semple Mustard, which is more likely for a serious Old Hip-Hop, Travis Scott reads the ode of his own coolness.
