Luckily, PAPER is here to help you out: each week, we round up 10 of our favorite new songs from artists — emerging and established — to soundtrack your life. From the surreal to the sublime, these songs cover every corner of the music world. The only criteria: they all have to absolutely rip.

Charli xcx, Shygirl - "365 featuring shygirl"
It’s finally out – the monumental Easyfun flip of “365,” the chaotic finale of Brat, that was first teased back during February’s Boiler Room. Clubrats rejoice!
JENNIE - "Mantra"
Blackpink’s Jennie shares a solo track that’s fizzy and confident, a bad-bitch anthem powered by her confident rapping and singing.
GloRilla, Sexxy Red - "Whatchu Kno About Me"
This highlight of GloRilla’s debut album Glorious is a brash link-up with Sexyy Red about being the best, basically. What else?
SUSSI - LIFE & LIMB"
Interesting industrial rap from SUSSI, the follow-up to his July single “Voices”.
Tucker Zimmerman, Big Thief - "Lorelei"
Legendary songwriter Tucker Zimmerman links with Big Thief on “Lorelei,” a meditative, warm folk song lifted by Adrienne Lenker’s delicate warble.
Clairo - "Love Songs"
Another great track from Like Someone I Know, Sub Pop’s new compilation of Margo Guryan covers. It could have fit easily on Clairo’s latest album Charm.
Maggie Rogers - "In The Living Room"
Some seriously 2000s pop-rock from Maggie Rogers, continuing to valiantly rescue and rehabilitate unfairly maligned AOR sounds.
Molina - "I am your house"
Anna Domino-style moody no wave from Danish-Chilean producer Molina, from her great new album When you wake up.
The Kid LAROI - "APEROL SPRITZ"
An unashamed pop moment from The Kid Laroi, following in the footsteps of his friend Justin Bieber.
Halsey - "I Never Loved You"
The latest single from Halsey’s forthcoming album is low-key but ingratiating, aided by some very Mk.Gee-style guitar.
