K9 (Wide Awake) - Nadine Randle (HipHop/R&B)  Nadine Randle brings it back to the floor with latest track “K9 (Wide Awake)”. This is Nadine’s second time on the blog, with her previous track “Waterfalls” giving us a driving power ballad. This time, we’ve got a thumping R&B/Hiphop infused track with focused and strong vocals in the driver’s seat. Style wise, we feel like Nadine’s performance evokes a lot of Nicole Scherzinger in the sound, especially in the longer belts, and with a touch of Ariana Grande sensibility in the melody and verse delivery. Complimented by crispy trap percussion, a slippery synth lead and a rumbling synth bass, the track is a perfect sonic sandwich.

Best Lyric: “Doesn’t matter that you cause me a poser.”
