Within the endless current of new music, it’s difficult for anyone to keep up with all that’s coming out. To combat this ongoing influx of sound, we publish our “Best New Artists of the Month” articles in the hopes that you never miss out on the outstanding new artists emerging in recent times. The Hour [track id="00951865" artist="The Hour " title="No One's Going To Heaven"] Nobody knows who The Hour is, but even without info or noticeable major label involvement , it's clear the potential for the act is big. Their debut, "No One's Going To Heaven", is the only piece of theirs we've had to go on up to this point, and it's more than enough to have us expecting the band to blow up. Bryce Fox [track id="00951907" artist="Bryce Fox" title="Burn Fast"] It's always advised to debut with a hit, and that's exactly what Bryce Fox has done with his first track, "Burn Fast". We expect it to give him a slew of fans and radio play to boot (eventually, of course), and if he can continue to craft such high-caliber tracks as it, he's not going to be unknown for very long. Jorja Smith [track id="00951849" artist="Jorja Smith" title="Blue Lights"] Jorja Smith has had the internet abuzz ever since she dropped her stunning debut, "Blue Lights", ten days ago. With the track, the 18-year-old showed that not only could she sing an incredible falsetto, but that she could flaunt range and styles as well. This up-and-comer has hints of Missy Elliot and Little Simz in her, and her sheer talent may allow her to surpass both. JAHKOY [track id="00951883" artist="JAHKOY" title="Odd Future"] JAHKOY isn't technically a new artist to anyone who's been around, but now with a new Def Jam deal and an incredibly impressive track in "Odd Future" to boot, the Torontonian artist is showing everyone that he's one to watch in in 2016 and beyond. Certainly, his joint rapping and R&B skills are some not many possess. PLAZA [track id="00951740" artist="PLAZA" title="AGAIN"] PLAZA isn't revealing a whole lot about himself, but that's a narrative we've seen before. What he has with his debut track, "AGAIN", however, is incredibly telling of the kind of appeal he has. It's a dark and insanely sleek piece of R&B that can give chills, and if it happens to be that the guy produced the track as well as sang over it, we're unsure where the ceiling for him right now is.
