The way it works is I hit shuffle on the playlist of songs released this year that I've saved in an overly long playlist. You can also add any 2019 songs you really dig, because I will eat them up. To start, then...

[SHUFFLE] Sure, of course, starting with a 7 minute jam seems perfectly reasonable. The best description I can think of for Thee Oh Sees is "sweaty chaos," which is not an inapt introduction for this track, "The Daily Heavy": https://youtu.be/YA0dExRdsaQ via

[SHUFFLE] Oh, I love this fuckin' earworm. Risha Mushonga is an exceptionally talented Afro/electro-pop artist from south London, and if the line "we made this bed; I want to lie in it" doesn't get stuck in your head, I dunno what to tell you. "4qtrs":https://youtu.be/WlbtRn3yUFI

[SHUFFLE] Big Thief's Two Hands will probably be on everyone's Best Albums of 2019 list. This is my favorite track from it. "Not":https://youtu.be/UIcVwH47uxQ

Oh, they were really big at SXSW this year. Was disappointed I didn't see them.

I should have know that I’d be unlikely to add anything that you haven’t heard, but... I’ll keep trying. Sampa the Great “Final Form”https://youtu.be/H2lvgKDpiSA

Sampa the Great was also big at SXSW this year. (I'm a long-time Little Simz partisan.)

Just thinking through the music that I’ve been excited about this year - Rapsody, Leikeli47, Britney Howard, Ari Lennox - and realizing I’ve been mostly about women this year. Though YBN Cordae and Anderson.Pak have been on rotation as well

Also realize that this is the first year I’ve been more excited about new r&b than new rap. Lot of artists - SiR, Lucky Daye, Snoh Alegre, A.P - turning it back towards soul

Yeah, the neosoul trend of the latter half of this decade has been one of my favorite developments. Really looking forward to hearing all the places it goes.
