Autumn is a great time for travel and sightseeing, so immerse yourself in these selections from South Korea, Lebanon, Colombia, Zimbabwe, and more. The playlist includes the debut single, "Cool," from our in-house artist Molly Pop, hip-hop favorites, freshman class fire, and the usual electronic jams from our favorite artists.

Grab your passport, and make sure you pack light. We curated a handful of musical gems from the 9th Floor Playlist to get this colorful holiday season off to a great start. Music videos are included for a few of the featured tracks.

Let us take you to the 9th Floor, where you will always find great music for every occasion.

"Cool" - Molly Pop
As things start to heat up in the music world, take a moment to cool yourself off with the debut single from 9th Floor Media featured artist Molly Pop. The single gives a little taste of her electric pop & futuristic dance sounds. Molly Pop is a Los Angeles based, Lebanese artist who shares her art through sensual lyrics, ethereal dance, and colorful visuals. The "Cool" music video was produced by Molly Pop and Xavier Hamel, directed by Xavier Hamel, and shot by Ludovica Isidori.

"Crazy Over You" - BLACKPINK
If you haven't heard of the South Korean girl group BLACKPINK yet, then you need to get with the program. Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa embody all the popstar energy on this sixth official track from their first full-length debut, THE ALBUM. The song is reminiscent of past tracks with the traditional rhythms and sounds of K-Pop with a retro hip-hop flavor.

"Think I'm Crazy" - Two Feet
The New York City singer, songwriter, and producer Bill Dess, better known as Two Feet, embodies all our favorite forbidden musical desires in this edgy alternative track. It's an anthem to our wild weekend, and the music video serves up a great visual of an unforgettable night of tantalizing taboos. The "Think I'm Crazy" music video was produced by Kevin Henry & Kyle Nolan, directed by Brian Lipko, and filmed by Jack Nitz.

"Vampire" - Dominic Fike
Dominic Fike is the emerging talent to watch in 2020. The young Florida native serves and delivers on the ninth track of his debut studio album, What Could Possibly Go Wrong. This edgy guitarist has the vocal power to complement a sound great for coastal car rides or late-night kickbacks with the homies. 9th Floor Media will be paying close attention to what’s to come from this artist. If you listen closely to this track, you can hear the interpolation of Jennifer Lopez's debut single "If You Had My Love".

“Pa Ti” - Jennifer Lopez & Maluma
Speaking of the incomparable Jennifer Lopez, we've been blessed with new music from the Queen of the Bronx once again. This time, she teams up with a 9th Floor favorite, the Colombian casanova, Maluma, to create a pair of seductive and sexy tracks that are the perfect blend of Latin flavor. The songs will be featured in the 2021 film, Marry Me, starring both Lopez and Maluma. Can we preorder our tickets now? We put “Pa Ti” on the playlist, but you have to check out “Lonely” also, to get the full experience. The two-part music video, "Pa' Ti + Lonely," is an amazing cinematic experience starring Jennifer Lopez and Maluma, directed by Jessy Terrero.

"Crazy" - Deemie
Stop what you’re doing and add this song to your favorite playlist now. Music producer and DJ, Deemie, brings all the fire and fun you're looking for in his newly released single, “Crazy”. The California native uses his SoCal and Arab roots as inspiration for creating his music, and it's the perfect blend. The song says it all, but we 100% go crazy once the beat drops. Check out the short film for “Crazy” shot on a Super 8 camera on the beaches of California, starring Michelle Costello and directed by the talented Gantry Hill.

"Promiseland" - MIKA
We love MIKA. The Lebanese-born British recording artist and singer-songwriter's lived on our playlists since childhood, so we had to include this favorite bonus track from his 2015 album XX. This song is an anthem to the underrepresented communities who are forgotten and ignored. But, we and MIKA are here to bring them into the limelight.

"Trouble" - CHAII
CHAII says, "the song represents strength, having fun and having your friends and family with you," and appreciate every minute of it. New Zealand-based Persian rapper, CHAII, shuts it down with this Middle Eastern-inspired banger, a piece of her 6-track visual EP LIGHTSWITCH.

“Douha (Mali Mali)” - Disclosure, Fatoumata Diawara
The 9th Floor always had a special place set aside for the English futuristic-house brothers, Howard and Guy Lawrence. Back from hiatus, their third album Energy's release reminds us why a party on the playa isn't complete with Disclosure beats in the background. Douha (Mali Mali) features the sweet West African vocals of Malian artist Fatoumata Diawara. The music video was filmed across three different countries, produced by Cr8tive Row, and directed by Mahaneela.

"Fasateen" - Mashrou' Leila
Mashrou' Leila is a Lebanese indie rock band formed at the American University of Beirut. This quartet pushes the envelope with lyrics that challenge the current state of our world and their personal lives, and it embodies the nature of art we appreciate at 9th Floor Media. We highlight “Fasateen,” the eighth track on their fourth studio album The Beirut School as an introduction for new listeners, and a recent throwback for seasoned fans. The "Fasateen" music video was produced by Ginger Beirut and Ginger Productions, directed by Diane Farah and Jowe Harfouche, and shot by Karim Ghorayeb.

"Shy Boy" - Ananya
This 80s inspired jam, "Shy Boy" from Zimbabwe raised singer, songwriter, and New York fashion student, Ananya, is right for the party moment. For this particular track, she collaborated with Toronto based music producer, the award-winning Rick Pilkington, to give our ears a little sample of nostalgic energy. The "Shy Boy" music video was produced by Alexandrina Fleming, and directed by Bella Kouds.

"Cleopatra" - David Blazer
We'll finish off our playlist highlights with this little treat from Los Angeles based singer-songwriter, and producer David Blazer, formerly known as A Sol Mechanic. As the son of a '70s LA radio DJ and activist, this talented artist's life with music goes way back, and that's present in the new generation sound of groovy R&B, jazzy, and soul in Cleopatra.
