COME THRU VOCALS — Daily Vocal Discoveries from INYIM Media
Come Thru Vocals is a long-running It’s Not You It’s Me Media series spotlighting standout vocal performances, emerging artists and new songs worth adding to your rotation. Curated by the INYIM music desk, many selections later appear in the Musique Dig’s Weekly Playlist and enter rotation on INYIM Radio.
Today’s Come Thru Vocals breaks the mold with liana flores’ “So it goes” and Major Lazer’s “pAPi wiTH tOKisCha,” featuring tOKisCha. One drifts in with liana’s easygoing bossa nova pull; the other kicks the door open with dembow-driven electronic energy. Two completely different lanes, one very INYIM reason to keep your rotation unpredictable.
liana flores
Tune: So it goes
liana flores lets “So it goes” breathe instead of chasing a giant pop payoff. Her soft, unforced delivery slips into the song’s easygoing bossa nova frame, turning movement, distance and letting go into something warm rather than heavy. Quiet can still have plenty to say.
Major Lazer & tOKisCha
Tune: pAPi wiTH tOKisCha
Major Lazer and tOKisCha take the opposite route on “pAPi wiTH tOKisCha,” running straight into dancehall, dembow and electronic club pressure. tOKisCha brings the track its unruly vocal spark while Major Lazer keeps the production moving like it has somewhere louder to be. Mold broken.
