Spoiler alert: you’ll find some of your favorites here and maybe a few you’ve never heard of but are about to obsess over.
Latin Beats Still Going Strong
It’s no shocker that Latin music has kept its grip on global charts. Karol G released “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” which has pretty much become an anthem across radio stations worldwide.
Throw in Peso Pluma and Feid, and you’ve got a powerhouse team dominating 2024’s summer vibes. Whether you’re chilling by the pool or pretending to work while bopping to their beats, these artists are taking over!

K-Pop’s Global Explosion
K-Pop is officially everywhere. Seriously, it’s like you can’t tune into anything without hearing NewJeans. Their single “Supernatural” stayed on repeat so long this year that it was basically the soundtrack to 2024… At least in my headphones! And I don’t care what anybody else says! Also, let’s not forget about TXT and Yeonjun who’s been on his solo grind with “GGUM.” It’s clear this genre isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

Afrobeats On Another Level
If you are thinking “Tyla! Water!! 🫗” I feel you, but no. She represents South Africa’s Amapiano music, or as she said: “The global impact that ‘Water’ had on the world just proved that African music can be pop music too”.
Nonetheless, Afrobeats is all over the world now, and we are so here for it. One of the absolute bangers of the year has to be Fireboy DML’s “Everyday”. It’s a vibe from the first beat to the last.

EDM Making a Comeback
Don’t sleep on the resurgence of electronic music this year. David Guetta teamed up with OneRepublic
for “I Don’t Wanna Wait” and it has that classic 00’s festival energy written all over it. Guetta and OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder built the song around the melody of “Dragostea Din Tei” by the Moldovan Eurodance group O-Zone. You can practically feel the summer heat when that beat drops.
Global Hits You’ll Want to Know
Don’t let 2024 slip by without checking out Olivia Rodrigo’s new album with the smash hit “Obsessed”. She’s putting all the feelings out there this year, and we’re vibing with every track.
