    • Ice Spice, "Munch (Feelin' U)" Bronx rapper Ice Spice made quite the splash this year: the 22-year-old drill newcomer gallivanted with Drake and got an unofficial remix from Cardi B, but most importantly, she delivered one of the biggest anthems of the summer.
    • Kendrick Lamar, "N95" The beauty of sitting on the sidelines for five years is all the note-taking and observations you gain.
