What it concludes

Cardi B's WAP has a simple chord progression starting on B to C and up to D flat that is not very interesting musically.
24kGoldn's Mood is a great sounding track with a cool guitar riff, killer vocals, big low end, and punchy sound.
Maluma's Hawai features a 1-3-vi-IV chord progression with a Latin feel and strong vocal performance.
BTS's Dynamite features a vi-ii-V-I chord progression with double harmonic rhythm and a very catchy beat.
Harry Styles's Watermelon Sugar uses a Dm7-Am7-C chord progression and real guitar instrumentation with a unique vibe.
The Weeknd's Blinding Lights utilizes a ii-vi-I-V progression with a great 80s synth sound and strong vocals and bass kick mix.
