Episode four of NOT 97 proved to be the most wide-reaching installment of season one thus far.


Select songs this week span from starry-eyed Finnish dream-pop outfit Pole Siblings to London's Dayo Bello, a mesmerizing 19-year-old crooner. DC's Swan Lingo offers his modern take on New Wave and Melbourne's Kaiit delivers powerful and necessary self-loving bars.


Alexa Shouneyia—a writer and social media editor for Complex Media— joined the show to share music from two young New York up-and-comers: alt-pop wunderkind Ben Alessi and street smart spitter Rah-C.
