04. Camila Cabello - "Chanel No. 5"
Pop star Camila Cabello shook things up this year with her single "I LUV IT" with many pointing out her sudden rebranding as a hyper pop artist. Indeed, it's a new sound for the former Fifth Harmony singer but on its follow up single "Chanel No. 5" Cabello comes into her own. "Cute girl with a sick mind," she sings before launching into the glitchy chorus "Wrist, wrist, spritz, spritz, make him come alive." It's a strange song to be sure, and a dramatic shift in sound for Cabello but on "Chanel No. 5" it works and certainly is better than the sonic avenue she was pursuing on past projects.
