Pretty good week - a highkey banger from Grum, cool lite Burial-esque production on this Fred track (can kind of take or leave the Thug vocals but hey ho) and a good tune from George too. 4 & 5 both pretty good, Honey Dijon decent, the Guetta song had an ok instrumental but a bit spoilt by the obnoxiously repetitive lyrics, didn't care for Morgan.
