The winner of our Songs of the Summer Brat 𝖇𝖗𝖆𝖙 was “payme” by radababyy 🏆

perlucidum dives into the breathy house-rap track. ↓

Choosing a song of the summer is about consensus, but that doesn’t always mean “the most widely popular thing.” Sometimes consensus means “everybody rocks with this song when they hear it,” and whether I play it for my friends who love Key Glock or my sisters who love K-pop, this song’s sticky synth groove has never failed to ring off. “Oh shit / I’m poppin’ / They play my music cuz I’m it,” RADA grins on the lone micro-verse. Maybe shutter shades were cool all along?

Read the full feature at the link in bio, and listen to The FADER Podcast where staffers argued for the Brat winner wherever you get your podcasts.

It’s 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗔𝗗𝗘𝗥’𝘀 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 week, presented by Splice.⁠
