Wow! This is how you kick-off the start of an album, unfortunately not to be shady the only poor-thing about this song is Gomez's vocals herself. The amazing production and monologue in the start really brings in the listener. Selena really shows in the first track, which is also the title track that her artistic strength has improved and she's not afraid to show it. I also have to give points to the really great repeated echo effect of the word "rifle".
Initially I did not like this song, I won't lie. But the always-perfect vocals of the Weeknd combined with the ultraviolent goddess Lana Del Rey herself is sure to bring a powerful track. I think the explosive chorus brings for a almost Broadway-like feel to the song and gives us one of Tumblr's most desired collaborations in the best way.
While, I wasn't a fan of Bieber's most recent album Purpose. I was a fan of the deluxe edition and here is one of the tracks from it. The sexy whispers Bieber omits "Happy Birthday" brings us a return of the R&B feeling he was going with last seen in that song he collaborated with R.Kelly on. Nas, whom is one of my favorite rappers like usual brings an amazing verse and together bring us a personal, yet sexy song.

This beautiful, yet disturbing song is for sure one of the weirdest releases this year. The background and mysterious vocals from a large Italian man, the haunting lyrics and the iconic "La La La La, Soft Ice Cream." bring us a song that we may leave puzzled, but we're fine with as it's very enjoyable. While there are some production problems throughout the song which left me a bit sour in the mouth I believe at least they were intentional to ensure the raw feeling of this could-of-been theme song for the Godfather remains.
This powerful song by vocal prowess Sia brings us yet another raw empowerment anthem. The highlights of this song is the bombastic chorus when Sia screeches "I'm Alive." I find this to be one of her best songs lyrically. While it may not have the catchy-ness of Chandelier or the production of Titanium or even the fun of Wild Ones. It will be a footprint in Sia's career and an anthem for anyone going through a tough time.
This disturbing glimpse into reality by Lady Gaga was for sure one hell of a rollercoaster. While carrying a powerful message Lady Gaga serves some of her most raw but also most amazing vocals on this track. To the naked eye this song is entirely about rape, but I find the real magic of this song is that it can really be applied to anything. The message of how people are quick to tell you to "get better" but have never experienced it themselves, and I think this was amazing for Gaga to make this big "**** you" to people like that. Along with the absolutely amazing and powerful video we maybe did not get another "Bad Romance" or "Judas" by Gaga, but instead she gave us, and the rest of the world a wake-up call that we needed.
