alt. mondays 027
Nigeria recently celebrated its 60th anniversary and the political holiday seems to have everyone in the mood for somber reflections. We’ve seen people taking more responsibility in playing their part to fix the dire state of things and as a result, social media posts about police brutality have a taken a more urgent tone and protests have gotten organized to end SARS(fr this time). In line with the positively charged atmosphere, we’ve compiled the 027 edition of our Alt Mondays playlist, featuring the most compelling new songs that immediately make your mind “cut to” a sequence of pleasant memories or day dreams of what-could-bes.
The theme for “Alt Mondays 027” is inspired by “No Stress”, the latest single from Wizkid’s coming album and it sets the playlist off on a breezy tone before we hear the catchy new dancehall track from Prince Swanny. From Tems, Niniola, Ictooicy, SuperJazzClub, Maison2500, Jorja Smith, Travis Scott, Roddy Ricch, Olú, 21 Savage and more, the tracks featured here are the coolest new jams as each artist (major or up-and-coming) exude a coolness that can amp up our rage against oppression even more. It’s a blitz of everything you want from a your playlist; up to date, flirtatious, flashy and wild.
