HAVIAH MIGHTY – “GOOD ON MY OWN TONIGHT” (ft. TOBI)
Toronto rapper Haviah Mighty has been rolling out new singles all year, and here’s her latest. She says, “‘Good On My Own Tonight’ focuses on the moment of clarity when you realize that you’re better off on your own. Whether it’s a relationship that hasn’t been working, or a friendship that has made you feel weird for a while, this song speaks to those internal thoughts around finally putting yourself first.”

IDK – “GRAVITY” (BRENT FAIYAZ & TYLER, THE CREATOR COVER)
