At some point we’ll need to recognize the fact that TOPS is this generation’s version of Fleetwood Mac. Maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of our lives. You can hear another great one from those Canadians below, along with other highlights from Fat Tony & Taydex, plus Jhene Aiko. Cruise past the jump for more magic from the likes of ARMNHMR (ft. Nevve), Chloe Lilac, Ella Eyre, Gigi Masin, Grey (ft. Thutmose), The Jungle Giants, MYRY, nodisco., and Rich the Kid (ft. YoungBoy Never Broke Again).

In music, pick your poison

Cue drums. Cue fake drums. “Cue Synthesizer” gives us another taste of the upcoming album from Destroyer. If it remains true to Dan Bejar’s track record, the album should be excellent. The song sure is. So is the a new one from Gordi, which is being sold to help raise money for Australian Bushfire relief. Help out if you can, and definitely stream the track! Then there’s a very good song from Torres, off her Silver Tongue record that will be out at the end of this month. Beyond that, you’ll find more to like after the jump, including tracks from Accessory, Douglas Dare, Jai Wolf (ft. Wrabel), Jlin, Luna Shadows, Melody English, Polica, Pom Pom Squad (covering FKA twigs), and Salt Cathedral.

Destroyer – Cue Synthesizer

Gordi – The Cost

Torres – Dressing America

Get excited for the next 070 Shake record that’s out this week by previewing another track from it below. Then two up-and-coming superstars Megan Thee Stallion and Normani team up for a fresh track that will be on the upcoming Harley Quinn / Birds of Prey movie arriving next month. And I quite like this new one from Picture This, appropriately named after one of my favorite actresses. All just par for the course when it comes to Pick Your Poison. There’s even more music available after the jump from notable names like Baby Goth, CONNOR BVRNS, EDEN, ill Nicky, Leyla Blue, Norel, Quinn XCII, Shallou, and SOFI TUKKER (ft. Allday).

After close to a month off for the holidays, Pick Your Poison returns with a vengeance in 2020! Well okay, we’re starting out at a relaxed pace because it’s better to ease into a new year. Definitely listen to at least a few of these songs if you get the chance though, no pressure or anything. Highlights come from Forever (ft. Just John), Mac Miller (RIP), and Mick Jenkins. After the jump you’ll discover fresh tracks from ARMNHMR (ft. Sunnie Williams), Bad Ambassadors, Conan Gray, J Hus, Kennebec, STROM, The Wants, World/Inferno Friendship Society, and youbet.
