  • "I'm stronger now, I have the power," George Riley sings on her new single, as chopped-up breakbeats tumble and rise below. The song, which comes with a hilarious video poking fun at influencers, is about moving on and self-empowerment. Oliver Palfreyman's jazzy jungle comes closer and closer to boiling over, propelling Riley's voice as she grows more self-assured. It's a wonderful sleight of hand of drum & bass-infused pop, complex and technical but still, at its heart, R&B. The central chord progression is the kind of melody that lodges in your head, and Riley's vocals curl and loop around even simple melodic phrases, every new iteration a hook in itself.
