Kaley’s Hot Hits For Summer

OPINION PIECE

If you couldn’t believe how fast this year was going already, here’s some crazy news for you. We’re almost halfway through Spring!

That means the weather is warming up and it’s almost ‘suns out buns out’ time. And there’s nothing better than a couple of cold ones with good company at the pool or the beach with the perfect sunny soundtrack.

Something about me is I love to find some hot new music for us to add to our summer playlists and I wanted to dedicate today’s column to my top 3 faves right now.

1. Tyla – Water: Tyla is a newcomer in the music scene who has grabbed the attention of people all over the internet. Starting as a TikTok trend Water has wormed its way into my brain so far, I don’t think it’ll leave until winter.

2. Drake ft. SZA – Slime You Out: The new Drake album dropped yesterday (6th Oct) and honestly there’ll be more songs from ‘For All The Dogs’ that will be added to my summer playlist but for now I recommend wrapping your ears around his new ‘old drake’ music. That’s right, he’s making the music that we all enjoyed listening to and heard more of on the radio before he got into a harder rap style.

3. Troye Sivan – Got Me Started: Who doesn’t love some Aussie music?! Troye has been delivering the goods when it comes to your summer energy the last few weeks and ‘Got Me Started’ honestly makes me want to strip off to my bikini and dance around the pool with all my mates. Get around this song, it goes off – Happy listening!
