Amber Mack’s Top 5 Mid-Year Songs

1. Beyoncé (feat. Kendrick Lamar) – “Freedom”

One of the most powerful songs on Beyoncé’s Lemonade album, Freedom is an anthem for and about black women, empowering us as a whole. This is definitely my anthem.

2. Ta-Ku (feat. Wafia) – “Meet in The Middle (Feat Wafia)”

Sensual and overall beautiful, this song explains every personal experience anyone has had. Their voices blend together so perfectly to create a smooth track that I can literally play over and over again.

3. Ariana Grande – “Into You”

Produced by Max Martin, this song is most definitely my favorite pop song of this year. Plus, haven’t you seen the video? An A+ video with and amazing love story.

4. Nick Jonas (feat. Tove Lo) – “Close”

A slow jam that makes me want to belt out my vocals loudly in the comfort of my own room. “Close” combines my favorite Swedish pop star with one of my American ones to create something great.

5. Rihanna – “Sledgehammer”

I know this song was just released but Rihanna’s vocals are fantastic on this track. I can’t help but put it on repeat and channel my inner Rihanna and plus the video is something out of this world.
