This song snuck up on me. At first listen, it is catchy and lovely, one of those breezy, atmospheric songs that are perfect for listening to when you’re driving at dusk. Then I read through the lyrics and that’s when all the feels hit me…
There was never any doubt that 2013 was Justin Timberlake’s year for in that year he blessed the masses with not one but two of the greatest albums of all time as well as throughout the history of pop music. It was during the summer of 2013 that Timberlake decided to bless us with this week’s track “Take Back The Night”

“With my music, I like to tell a story. I sketch an atmosphere, which reflects me at that moment. However, just painting this atmosphere is not enough for me, something has got to happen. With that atmosphere as a starting point, I take off. Let go of where you were and join me on an adventure…”
The seventh track on the Fruit Bat’s album, Mouthfuls, is a quiet, folky piano ballad that takes you on a journey through the lead singer’s thoughts and feelings on love.
Is there a better vocal flourish in all of popular music than when Edwin Starr cries out “Hunh! Good Gawd, y’all!” in the timeless anti-Vietnam protest song War? It’s the inflection of a maestro of the human voice. And with those few syllables, Starr injects a very believable sense of personal exasperation into a song that calls for the warmongers of the world to see sense.

From this last team, we bring you Nujabes, one of the most important names in the Japanese and worldwide hip hop scene.
Based in İstanbul, three rock ’n’ roll lovers formed the heavy rock ‘n’ roll band, The Ringo Jets. Tarkan Mertoğlu and Deniz Ağan on guitars and Lale Kardeş on drums, The Ringo Jets have been shaking the underground scene since the end of 2011. Their songs are in English and some of them are instrumental, unlike other bands in Turkey. They were the opening-act for bands like The Sonics, Pixies and Portishead.
Once a female MP attacked Winston Churchill with a comment, “Sir, if I was your wife, I’d poison your tea.” Winston smiled and immediately shot back, “Madam, if you were my wife, I’d drink it.”…
I remember first seeing SZA in TDE’s 2013 BET cypher. She didn’t even step to the front to say anything, but still, she was impossible to miss. The only girl in the crew, chilling in the back with big hair and white shorts, she anonymously seemed to anchor them.

This track has some of the most unique lyrical content I’ve heard in a very long time! The content of rap music is typically orientated and sex, love and money, however this track not only goes in a completely different direction, but it also does so in a tastefully amusing way.
The restlessness of the artist stands out in the track. Aside from the revealing lyrics, the music too–hints of folk, blues and country–render the track a sense of wander, made amply clear with the title Built to Roam.”
