5. Hit-Boy "Jay-Z Interview"
Hit-Boy had already made a name for himself as the producer for Kanye West and Jay-Z's massive single, "Ni**as in Paris," and A$AP Rocky's "Goldie." But for "Jay-Z Interview," he stepped in front of the mic to showcase his talents as an MC over Bink!'s celebratory beat.
4. Fiona Apple "Werewolf"
Fiona Apple set the bar high with her first single in over five years. "Every Single Night" immediately catapulted the singer back into the spotlight and had us looking forward to The Idler Wheel. But with such a good first single comes that doubt that the rest of the album will fall short. No worries, "Werewolf" is great.
3. Meyhem Lauren f/ Action Bronson & Roc Marciano "Peruvian Desserts"
2. Grizzly Bear "Sleeping Ute"
Behold, the grand return of indie rock heroes Grizzly Bear. They will drop their first album since 2009's stellar Veckitamest on Sept. 18. It might not have a name yet, but it's got a great lead single in "Sleeping Ute," which you can stream below.
1. Frank Ocean "Pyramids"
It all started with a video teaser, which soon led to Frank Ocean revealing that Channel Orange is indeed the name of his new album. And then, he took to his Soundcloud page to share its first single, a nearly 10-minute epic called "Pyramids."
