In & OutRich Amiri
Rich Amiri, the Boston-born rapper whose 2024 album War Ready is still fresh in our minds, dropped a new track in September 2025 that’s packed with floor-shaking, powerful beats.
It channels the sound of the so-called underground rage scene, with shades of influence from artists like Playboi Carti.
Layered over that, his signature melodic and introspective flow adds depth, making the song more than just aggressive.
This release seems to explore shifting relationships and a sense of emotional instability behind success.
It’s a track that distills the momentum he’s built—especially since One Call reached No.
60 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 2024—into one concentrated hit.
InsideTeenage Disaster
Teenage Disaster builds a unique dark sonic universe with horror-movie terror and grotesque motifs.
A multifaceted creator, he’s active not only in music production but also as an actor and animator.
Since signing with a major label in 2022, he has continued to release work, and his track dropped in September 2025 is an alternative tune that delves deep into his inner world.
Here, distorted bass and relentless rap vividly portray the claustrophobia and surging impulses swirling within a psychological lockroom.
Amid the aggressive sound, the structure shines with catchy melodies rooted in pop-punk, revealing his flair for theatricality.
For those who want to immerse themselves in a story that’s both provocative and introspective, this is an irresistible track.
I’ve Cried The Blue Right Out Of My EyesCrystal Gayle
Crystal Gayle, who is also known as the younger sister of country music icon Loretta Lynn, is an artist famed for her strikingly beautiful floor-length hair.
Her debut song was a single released in August 1970, written and composed by her sister Loretta.
The lyrics portray an achingly pure and poignant heartbreak—crying until the blue in her eyes has all washed away—brought to life by Gayle’s clear, luminous vocals.
Unlike her later, more polished country-pop style, this work is characterized by a traditional sound so classic it earned the nickname “Little Loretta.” Interestingly, after Gayle’s popularity became unshakable, the single was reissued in 1978 and re-entered the charts.
It’s a precious track that lets you feel the very starting point of a great singer’s brilliant career.

Her debut song was released in France in 1975, then remixed in 1977, when it reached No.
1 on the U.

dance chart.

It beautifully fuses club-shaking exhilaration with a heartfelt, urgent cry from deep within.
Also included on the album “Portfolio,” it’s a song that reveals the origins of her artistry.
I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa ClausLene Lovich
An artist known in the New Wave scene as the “Queen of Quirk,” Lene Lovich used her distinctive voice and eccentric style to influence many artists who followed.
Her debut release was a cover of a Christmas song that everyone knows.
In this work, the child’s shock at seeing their mother kissing Santa Claus is expressed through Lovich’s uniquely offbeat vocals.
An innocent scene is transformed into a surreal, avant‑garde world, resulting in a truly unique piece.
Released as an EP in November 1976, this recording is a rare track not included on any studio album.
Here you can find the roots of Lovich before her later breakout hit, “Lucky Number.” For those tired of run-of-the-mill Christmas songs or curious to glimpse the spark of a maverick talent, this track might be just the thing.

I’m Just A Sucker For Your LoveTeena Marie
Teena Marie, the soul singer known as the “Ivory Queen of Soul.” Though white, she signed with Motown, the storied home of Black music, after being discovered by the King of Funk, Rick James.
Her debut single, released in March 1979 from the album “Wild and Peaceful,” is a feel-good funk tune that passionately conveys the protagonist’s head-over-heels infatuation.
The real charm of the track lies in the fiery duet where Teena’s piercing vocals entwine with Rick’s.
There’s even an anecdote that, because her photo didn’t appear on the cover at the time, many assumed she was Black—a testament to her artistry.
It reached No.

Alanis Morissette, the Canadian singer-songwriter who epitomized ’90s alternative rock, won widespread empathy with her confessional lyrics.
One track from her landmark 1995 album Jagged Little Pill is a classic that centers on life’s ironic mishaps.
With powerful yet delicate vocals, she sings about “unlucky” situations that anyone might experience—like rain on your wedding day.
Doesn’t it bring back youthful memories of that friend who would sit beside you and laugh it off together? This killer tune, which spent six consecutive weeks at No.
1 on the Canadian charts, can also be heard as a friendship anthem that gives you the strength to laugh away the hard times.
