One of its standouts, ‘Please, Mr. Kennedy’, the catchy, freely adapted cover of an obscure track from the 60’s which Oscar Isaac; Justin Timberlake & Adam Driver perform, tops the new edition of our loop.

Prurient gave us the highest entry, next to new offerings by Mas Ysa; Miguel; St. Vincent and an infectious collaboration between Major Lazer & Pharrell.
