After holidays & finals, I find my way back to Monday. Thank goodness the show doesn't stop & new music is constantly making it's way out. The exciting part about this new week is that it also a new month... the last one of the year at that! Not only do we get to gear up for round 2 of holiday season, but we also can start rounding up the year. No better way to kick off the week with a hot new playlist. Considering I didn't curate a playlist the last couple of weeks, I doubled back to a few new singles that dropped before turkey day, all while including a few hot new releases.

There's truly been so much great music being released, it's hard to sit still. Be sure to check out a couple of albums also kept in rotation; from Quin's fantasy soul-tastic "Galactica", to "Free 6lack" evoking "ex problems", and the latest from mutifaceted Donald Glover, aka Childish Gambino, "Awaken, My Love!"
