New Music Friday Review: G -Eazy and Halsey's "Bonnie and Clyde" song.

Yet again a shorter than usual New Music Friday in the holiday season but I will post several songs to give a chance to.

Song: Him & I
Artist: G-Eazy, Halsey





So we have G-Eazy and his girlfriend Halsey releasing a song that Halsey described as being a "Bonnie and Clyde" song between two lovers cause there's nothing more amazing or original in pop rap than comparing your relationship to a pair of lovebird murderers.

As for the song, Halsey does well on the hook but wow, the lyrics are generic as all get out and G-Eazy jokes about if he was ever to be caught cheating, Halsey would cut his "hahahaha" off (we all know what he means though) and then goes on about dying and doing drugs. Meh, this song is forgettable, guaranteed I won't remember it unless radio picks it up

Rating: 4/10


Song; Miss You
Artist: Louis Tomlinson



So this might well be one of Louis Tomlinson's better songs, mainly because he has shed the EDM producers which I thought hamstrung the messages of his previous songs but "Miss You" takes a very pop rock feel rather than EDM and it works well with the guitar plus the stadium rock feel of the chorus. I actually like this a lot more than when I first heard it. Maybe Louis should shed the likes of Steve Aoki and Digital Farm Animals permanently.



Rating: 6/10


Songs to check out

"Stand Up Tragedy" by The Fratellis




"Broken People" by Logic feat. Rag 'n' Bone Man






"Fireworks" by First Aid Kit.






Best of the week: It's going to a song called "Swing" by Josiah and the Bonnevilles. It's actually pretty excellent.



Worst: Ugh. "Him & I" by G-Eazy and Halsey gets it for being forgettable.


Next week's New Music Friday:

Camila Cabello is releasing TWO new songs
Dinah Jane of 5th Harmony fame and Leona Lewis are releasing something tomorrow



So that wraps it up for this week. Don't forget you and check out the songs that I have been listening to this year via my playlist on Spotify. ARIA Chart out on Saturday, something tells me we're in for a
"perfect" new number one so stay tuned for my review of all that craziness.
