Musgraves gives us a taste of country disco realness with her '70s-inspired video for her funky track "High Horse." We dare you not to do The Hustle to this.

Be Yourself - Taylor Bennett
Taylor Bennett's new EP is all the motivation you need to step into a more confident you.
"Like I Used To" - Tinashe
Tinashe's effortless swagger is evident in her latest single. If you've got a fuckboi in your life, tell him boy bye with this instant bop.
"La Di Da" - The Internet
No one does funk better than The Internet. Their latest, off of their forthcoming album Hive Mind, is 100 percent groove-worthy.
"Conversation" - Shenna
Shenna turned the anxiety of having hard conversations with your loved ones into a dream pop anthem.
"Heaven Wasn't Made For Me" - Terror Jr.
Nothing will keep you on the edge of your seat like Terror Jr.'s latest.
"Go 2.0 (feat. Jorja Smith, H.E.R., and Rapsody)" - Alex Da Kid
This sensual, slow-burning powerhouse of a tune courtesy of Jorja Smith, H.E.R., Rapsody, and Alex Da Kid will give you all the feels. You'll definitely want to add this to your next sex jams playlist.
"Sun In Our Eyes (feat. Diplo)" - MØ
MØ and Diplo team up once again for a snappy new bop. It's the first off of MØ's forthcoming record, Forever Neverland, and if the song is indicative of what we can expect from the rest of the album, we can't wait for it.
