The Quest for This Year's Song of Summer

This chapter explores the absence of a dominant summer anthem in the current year, contrasting it with last year's ubiquitous hits like 'Old Town Road.' The speakers delve into how technological changes have shifted music consumption from communal experiences to individual listening, impacting the cultural phenomenon of the 'Song of Summer.' They also analyze the rise of Alex Warren's 'Ordinary' as a contender for this year's anthem while discussing broader themes of representation and collective experiences in today's music landscape.
